For my home server, I decided to use an Asus board with integrated, passive cooled Intel Celeron CPU (ASUS N3050I-C), which has a TDP of 10 Watt. I think 4GB RAM should be sufficient. The board comes with 2 SATA ports, so I added a PCI express card with two additional SATA ports. The plan is to have 3 hard drives… Read more »
When listening to Podcasts from Metaebene, sooner or later you will hear about Podlove Publisher. Having used WordPress for podcasting more than 10 years ago (with some podcast plugin I really don’t remember), I was curious, if Podlove would prove, what its enthusiastic creators promised. The idea to offer a podcast for my churches service, or for the sermon to… Read more »
Eine Sache, die mich in Esslingen in den letzten Jahren immer wieder geärgert hat: Dinge werden nicht repariert, sondern stattdessen außer Betrieb genommen.

Deshalb nutze ich seit einiger Zeit auch quasi keine Google Produkte mehr (die Story folgt noch … beizeiten – versprochen). In den USA gibt es jetzt eine Uni – und es… Read more »
Based on this blogpost (DE) I set up a TimeMachine Backup Server on a Raspberry Pi 2. The V2 has enough processing power and RAM to serve this purpose well. The guide is well written, though some things need to be changed to make it work and run stable: 1) Use ext4 as filesystem for the backup disk. Sure you can install… Read more »
Tonight, famous blues guitar player Bernard Allison rocked the house in Esslingen. He is a regular guest in Dieselstrasse and I saw him quite some times, but this was sure one of the best performances I attended. Playing new and old stuff from his own repertoire was rounded up by pieces from Freddy King, B.B. King, his father Luther Allison… Read more »
Die Esslinger halten offensichtlich nichts davon, wenn die eigene Hofeinfahrt zur Toilette gemacht wird.
So werden in Esslingen Straßenschilder entsorgt. Road sign disposal, the „Esslingen-way“
