New hardware just keeps rolling in
I’ve been in love with the SATA cradle from the moment I saw it. Too bad that darn thing costs half a fortune when importing it from Japan. Sharkoon obviously saw the potential of the device as well and made … Continue reading

Wuala
I’m a big fan of new technologies and interesting software. I’m also a fan of filesystems and the concepts behind filesharing programs. So I’m really glad to be able to give Wuala a try. The program can best be described … Continue reading

K2 Hooks
One of the major annoyances with theme upgrades is that all your precious changes will be lost, or you’ll have to diff and patch it from one version to another. That’s quite a lot of useless work. The K2 theme … Continue reading
It’s alive again~ !!
Geez, what a unlucky day! Had to format the laptop, reinstall Vista (two times, to be precise!) and I’m finally getting all my data back from the fileserver (over WiFi, that is… I guess I’ll get cancer because of that … Continue reading
Mplayer + CoreAVC
Windows, despite all it’s flaws, is nice for a few things. First of all, there’s a buttload of cool, gory games. And second there’s a really nice multimedia support; many companies/individuals write highly optimized software for video splitting, decoding, muxing, … Continue reading
Fo’ shizzle, ma’ nizzle!
Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know. — Ernest Hemingway
Venturing into KDE4… and back.
Since anything I would write in long paragraphs would be nothing but a rant, I’ll keep it brief and half-way composed: Blablabla, complaining about how much plasma agravates me right now (including theme, sound scheme is nice), blablabla, don’t care … Continue reading

Limit CPU consumption of applications on Linux
One of the more frequent questions in support channels: How do I limit a specific application to not consume all my cpu time? While it is generally a bad idea to limit applications in that department, it is indeed quite … Continue reading
Moving folders to the server side
Wow, the second Windows-related post today? Something horrible must be happening to me right now… Anyway, you may know a situation like this: Many clients, one server and a terribly stubborn application that just wants to write into that one … Continue reading
Temporarily register fonts using a normal User account
As you may know Windows is quite stiff sometimes. You can’t add additional font directories like you’d do on Unix. Another stiffy problem is that Windows requires an elevated account for operations like installing/removing fonts from the system. That’s quite … Continue reading
More touching things
If you know me for a while then you probably recall one thing: I simply love touchscreens. I like the idea of interacting with applications by flinging my greasy fingers on a display. One thing I really really loved was … Continue reading
Mandatory profiles w/XP
Mandatory profiles are an ideal way of keeping a complete set of workstations in sync in regard of their visual appearance and settings. One thing I was stuck at: Whenever I copied a profile and renamed the NTUSER.DAT to NTUSER.MAN the profile simply wouldn’t load the preferences from it, resulting in ugly window decorations, empty start menus etc. Why is that? The reason lies in the permissions on HKCU. To circumvent this undesired effects you can use Computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> User Profiles -> Copy To… … Continue reading
It’s all his fault
Fossel wanted me to demonstrate my dormant, probably nonexistent abilities. So here we go… [audio://tsukasa.jidder.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/londonbridge.mp3] It actually isn’t that bad… well… if you know what I mean by bad… like… me playing… like yesterday… like… aww…
My new favorite toy
…hardware-wise is probably the M-Audio KeyRig 49 MIDI Controller. What, you might ask, Tsukasa and music? Yeah, that’s quite a shock. But I really enjoy venturing into new stuff and doing application development all the time is wearing me out … Continue reading
Winforms in Mono
I hope I don’t have to emphatize how much of a Mono fanboy I am at this point 🙂 . Today I had one of these “Wow” moments Microsoft wanted me to give with Vista (they failed miserably, btw) when … Continue reading
