Temptation

Temptation is haunting my head It’s keeping me a stranger to my bed Tormenting me like a nightmare It’s making the moment hard to bare I have this grip in my fingers and a smell that lingers I have this taste on my tongue and mind blowing song Temptation is all around It’s waiting to be found Dwelling inside and showing It’s crawling and crawling

VirtualBox juggling order of Network Adapters

It took me a while figuring out why in using VirtualBox I couldn’t get network in a machine configured with 2 network adapters. One was set up to be bridged with the host, the other is a host-only one. The problem was that in CentOS I configured both assuming that eth0 equals to ‘Adapter 1’, and eth1 ‘Adapter 2’. This is not (always?) the case and juggling it again around made it work.

Another Milestone passed

Past week I reached another milestone in my ‘body transformation’. Since last year I came down from about 100kg (220 pounds) to ±85kg (187 pounds). It’s been a great experience and I’m able to squeeze into (European) Medium sized t-shirt. Sometimes even small size sport wear! The milestone was finishing the HVB CityLauf in Aschaffenburg. It’s a 7.9km run, 5 rounds through the city. The D-group started about 18:30 with a few drops; it ended with all being soaked by the pouring rain.

In love with Kraków!

It's been a drag the last few hours in the airport and now on the plane. I’m leaving Kraków, but not only the city conquered my heart.. A long weekend on vacation with probably the peek being the first night out. Bitching about how it was not my kind of music, I gave in and danced on music that would otherwise scare me away! It must have been the dancing partner, really.

AMOOCON, the Open-Source VoIP Conference

I must admit that I’m a bit lost when people are starting to discuss during the Q&A of presentations, here at AMOOCON, Rostock (Germany). The PBX or ‘business communication’ world is a bit unknown to me, but hearing that the Open Source solutions are market leader in North America came as a surprise. 88% of this share is Asterisk. This fact was for me the most remarkable thing to remember from Mark Spencer’s keynote.
