Heute ist der erste “Digital Independence Day” (DID), oder auch der “Digitale Unabhängigkeitstag” (DUT).
Wer jetzt (verständlicherweise) nicht weiß, was das sein soll, dem kann ich diesen Vortrag von Marc-Uwe Kling empfehlen.
Am Anfang sind ein paar Känguru-Geschichten, aber ab bei 42:53 geht es los zum DID. 
 Für alle, die keine Lust auf Videos haben, hier die…
A while ago something … weird … happened. I had not posted anything on this blog for years. And then I suddenly got a mail: 
 
 Hallo , 
 Ich sehe Ihre Website www.enbewe.de und sie ist beeindruckend.
Ich frage mich, ob auf Ihrer Website Werbeoptionen wie Gastbeiträge
oder Anzeigeninhalte verfügbar sind? 
 Was ist der Preis, wenn wir auf Ihrer Website werben…
A few months ago I came into posession of a small safe. Okay, that sounds like I stole it. (Which I did not!). Let me phrase that differently. 
 A few months ago, someone sold me a safe without the combination. That sounds like I bought a stolen safe, so just marginally better. 
 A few months ago I bought a house, which happened to have a safe in it. The sellers inherited the house and…
After a short break, here is the first part about the redesign of the Saike 858D rework station ( Overview ). 
 Let’s talk about a rough block diagram for the new design.
The next part in the series about reverse engineering the Saike 858D rework station ( Overview ) brings a few
measurements, I did in my device.
It presents me with the problem, that I am not sure anymore if I want to keep the transformer,
currently used in the station.
Recently, I posted the teardown of my Saike 858D SMD rework station.
Now it is time to really reverse engineer the main PCB.
Some of the parts are similar to other “flavors” of the 858D, but some seem to be different.
Quite some time ago I bought an SMD Rework Station at AliExpress.
The station I ordered was a Saike 858D , which is one of the numerous versions
of the 858D line of rework stations. The “original” model is probably the
Atten 858D+ which Dave Jones from the EEVBlog also did a tool review on .
My station was really cheap and I am, in general, glad that I have it.

At the time, there is quite some discussion regarding
air quality and pollution going on in germany.
Some cities, like Stuttgart, have to deal with high levels
of fine particle emissions.
That is why some people came up with a simple solution to
build a sensor network for air quality.
They provide detailed instruction on how to build your
own air quality sensor for…
Die Vorlesungszeit des Wintersemesters ist um und auch das Programm des
“Arbeitskreises Homöopathie an der CAU zu Kiel e.V.”
ist für dieses Semester beendet. 
 Erfreulicherweise ist damit aber wohl auch die Zeit des Arbeitskreises
an der CAU insgesamt beendet.
Am 16. Januar 2018 fand erneut ein Termin der “Ringvorlesung” Homöopathie statt.
Leider konnte ich selber nicht an dem Termin teil nehmen,
aber das folgende Gedächtnisprotokoll wurde mir von einem
Besucher zur Veröffentlichung zur Verfügung gestellt.
Another year has passed and that means another congress has been visited.
This year the congress moved to Messe Leipzig instead of the CCH in Hamburg.
I was sceptical about the new location in the beginning.
Heute findet die zweite “Vorlesung” des Arbeitskreis Homöopathie an der CAU zu Kiel e.V. 
statt. Das heutige Thema soll “Wechseljahre als homöopathische Herausforderung” sein.
Hier sollte ein möglichst aktuelles Liveblog veröffentlicht werden.
Der Arbeitskreis Homöopathie an der CAU zu Kiel e.V. bietet heute seine
erste Ringvorlesung an. Hier will ich versuchen das Geschehen möglichst
live zu protokollieren.
I have been fed up with my old Wordpress -based blog for quite some time now.
One factor might be the missing updates, but another issue was Wordpress (WP) itself.
Sure, WP looks like a simple solution, if all you want is have a blog
with some usable tools around it.
Okay, the 33C3 is over for quite some time and I didn’t write about it. Short form: I was there, it was amazing, I was sick afterwards. 
 I havn’t seen lots of talks yet, but here is my watchlist:
