The Mysterious Appearance of a White Box

Woven at 2008-07-13T21:23, coloured as .

I should take more care what I wish for. For sometimes, it comes true … most notably, if you have a really playful friend (which, in all honesty, is exactly what I (secretly) wished for, clearly without considering the consequences, notably the fact that I have to be prepared for surprises).

So. This evening, around 9 [...]

Woven at 2008-01-15T12:51, coloured as .

Es dürfte die erste Schurkenware für Mac OS X sein: MacSweeper preist sich selbst als Systemsäuberungs- wie Sicherheitswerkzeug an und gaukelt nach einer “Überprüfung” der eigenen Festplatte stets schwerwiegende Bedrohungen für Sicherheit und Privatsphäre vor, die nur durch den Kauf der Software beseitigt werden könnten.

Abschied von der Hierarchie?

Woven at 2004-12-11T17:00, coloured as .

Es ist durchaus fraglich, ob die ursprüngliche und heute immer noch frischfröhlich vertretene Ansicht, das Internet sei die Realisierung eines hierarchiefreien und rein assoziativen Wissensraumes wirklich anwendbar ist – oder ob das Web zum einen das gar nicht ist und zum anderen das auch gar nicht sein soll.
