Story Time!

Okay, this one's not related to gaming in any way, but I felt like sharing, so here it goes!

I was shopping on Friday so I don't have to starve on the weekend (my fridge was basically empty). I usually buy cheap frozen pizzas, because I really like them. While was standing in front of the cheap part of the freezer isle a bro and his girlfriend came into the isle.

The guy stopped at the normal priced stuff (like Dr. Oetker and Wagner) and just said: "Mhmh... BBQ chicken." He was real enthusiastic, you could almost see his mouth watering. He really wanted that BBQ chicken frozen pizza. But in a split second his girlfriend reacted. She told him "No" and pulled him away.

This is when our eyes met. We both know what we were thinking. Bro got robbed of his BBQ chicken pizza. It was a real bro-to-bro moment. You could feel his pain, like his eyes were saying: "Damn, only vegetables for me."

So guess who's eating BBQ chicken pizza right now?

UPDATE - Problem liegt vermutlich bei eBay

(English summary below.) Hab noch etwas mehr rumprobiert und dank https://twitter.com/AskPayPal bin ich auf etwas aufmerksam geworden: Wenn ich mich bei PayPal (über die ganz normale Seite https://www.paypal.de/ ) einlogge und dann in einem anderen Tab eBay aufmache, einen Artikel in den Warenkorb lege und dann PayPal als Zahlungsmethode werde ich bei PayPal ausgeloggt! eBay macht mir die Session (bzw. den Cookie) kaputt sobald dieser vermurkste Pop-up aufgeht! (Statt die Session die bereits da ist zu nutzen...) Kann auch super jederzeit reproduziert werden: Tab Nr. 1: PayPal öffnen und einloggen (man ist hier auf der Übersichtsseite). Tab Nr. 2: eBay öffnen, einen Artikel in den Warenkorb legen. Im Warenkorb auf "Weiter zur Kaufabwicklung" klicken PayPal als Zahlungsmethode auswählen. (Zu diesem Zeitpunkt ist man in Tab Nr. 1 bei PayPal noch eingeloggt!) Auf "Weiter" klicken - hierbei öffnet sich das Pop-up und gleichzeitig geht die Session in...

Open Source doesn't work

Before you misunderstand me: I'm a Linux user and love open source software (OSS)! I always try to use OSS if there is one available. But speaking from personal experience the idea behind open source doesn't really work. Hear me out. Open source is based on the premise that everybody can contribute and this way the software gets better. The more people do it the better it gets. Well, I have 2 cases for you. The first one is Ansible . I've made a small patch in one of the plugins (hashi_vault) to make the plugin more flexible. I've created a pull request (PR) back in August 2019. At that time the patch had no conflicts with the master branch. But it was never merged. Now, over 8 months later the patch still isn't merged and has conflicts, because the code changed so much since then. So instead of quickly accepting a good patch - which would help not only me, but probably quite a few others - it was left and forgotten. I find this rather sad. It shows the go...

Making a game for the PlayStation 2

Actually, not really for the PS2 - not natively at least. Rather making a game for YaBasic which can be played on the PS2. I started my geek life when I was 11 years old and got my first computer (486). A few years later I found some games written in QBasic on a gaming magazine's CD. That was the first time I came in contact with programming. I didn't understand much back then, because I wasn't taught before and I didn't speak any English (it's my 3rd language...) so I was just trying to figure out how the games worked by modifying stuff. These games were simple text adventures, where you had to make choices and the game would progress that way. There were no commands like "go left" or "pick up". The game presented you all the options and you had to input the number of the option you chose. And instead of "if-else" there were GOTOs everywhere. This was how I made my first game, a multiple-choice quiz with 10 questions. Since I didn...
