The "FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN"(sorry, no permalink possible, vendor homepage: http://www.avm.de), that belongs to our new DSL-connection (which is still to come) arrived today. It provides:

  • a DSL-modem (don't need that)
  • LAN-router (nice, let's see, if we use it)
  • WLAN (very cool - get Püppi's laptop online wirelessly)
  • VoIP-router (that's the thing I'm eager to see)


Still waiting for the webcam I got on eBay, but well, this is a good toy to start with. :)

Happened today:

*ring*
amette: "Mette"

woman: "Hello, Mr. Mette. I'm with the compensation department of FairPlay. You ended playing the lottery with us. We want to compensate you for whatever inconvenience made you make that decision!"

amette: "I don't remember!"

woman: "It was SKL or NKL or something like that."

amette: "Ah, I remember, I never started to play that with you!"

woman: "Well, that's exactly my business. Our compensation package includes... blaah, blah, unbelievable shit, blah, impossible promises, blah, blaah-blaaaah, no pause to say something, blah, blaaaaaah....." - she has to breathe

amette: "I'm not interested though!"

woman: "How come?"

amette: "Well, I am becoming disgusted by those telephone sellings..." - HA, now I'm going to tell!

woman hangs up

amette stares at telephone

What do we learn?
Don't be polite with those people!

.. but not all. The OPML-file was cut in half (probably at the position, where the disk got full). I'll try to re-add the missing feeds later this day. And for now I stopped the donkey to keep my home-partition reasonably free. At least aKregator repaired the OPML file, so that it now has linebreaks again and dunno what else - vi loads it quickly now again.

The /home-partition got full again and then aKregator kills the feed-file.. aaargh.. :(
When opening the OPML with vim, vi doesn't too well cope with it. It takes ages to load it and editing the same. I don't know, what's up there...
It's really fu$#ed... :(
