EDIT: swapped distro from kali 2.0 to Elementary OS for aesthetics … see later blog posts Finding the right font is difficult, if you are picky. And i am. While Kali’s default font “Monospace” is not a bad choice at all, it is not as slick and clean as the OSX terminal font. It’s got […]

UPDATE 03/Jan/2016: 1Password 4.x for Windows is working nicely in WINE. The mac serial works for windows, too. – Perfect! Unfortunately, Agilebits (the creator of 1Password) are not offering a linux version of their password storage tool: 1password a couple of years ago, we have switched from KeePassX (OSX) to 1Password because of the better […]

Many posts on the internet about importing emails from Apple Mail into Thunderbird. Unfortunately, most articles are quite outdated and not working for the current version of Apple Mail (El Capitan) and the integrated import feature also won’t work with Mail 9.1.

Problem 1: Mails die PGP verschlüsselt via POP3 empfangen wurden, sind lokal nicht durchsuchbar. – Das ist suboptimal. Lösungsansatz: permanent lokal entschlüsseln. Mir persönlich reicht das, da ich mit PGP nur den Mailtransfer absichern möchte. Da ich nicht alle meine Emails auf meinem Server liegen haben möchte, nutze ich POP3 statt IMAP. Lokal auf meinem […]

After having some great years with OSX since 2007 and iOS soon after that, it becomes time to say good bye. Why? – We’re experiencing more and more problems. In 2014, we got really mad about Apple’s ridiculous AppStore policies, claiming that our e-learning app was useless (as opposed to Flappybird!), just because it loaded […]

Problem: your raid array has degraded, one or multiple disks are failing S.M.A.R.T. tests, because of Spin_retry_count. Actually all the data is OK, just the spin_retry_count keeps happening. The drives are perfecly fine, but the S.M.A.R.T. value makes the drive almost useless because bios and/or mdadm won’t accept it anymore for your raid array. This […]
