Obituary to Madog
One week ago, left this world, you have. It was the 21st of May when the phone rang in the middle of the night. Confused I stumbled out of bed to switch off the alarm and get ready for work but the next moment, before I could even grab my iPhone I knew that it was not the sound of the alarm but the ring tone of a telephone call I did not ever want…

MEANING is the WAVE
What can be more pleasant than listening to a podcast and learning new things through meaningful thoughts or conversation? Akira The Don has found the answer to that question by combining excerpts of speech from eminent thinkers like Terence McKenna, Jordan B. Peterson, David Foster Wallace or Alan Watts, to name but a few, with matching musical rhythms. As I rarely listen to DJ sets and even more rarely am used to attend parties since…

Episode VIII
Last weekend I missed writing to my blog. Actually I had not planned to publish a blog post on a regular basis every weekend when I resumed writing at the beginning of January this year. As I wanted to write about the podcasts I like listening to I managed to keep posting continuously on a weekly basis about several podcasting topics before later starting to write about other topics, too. By then, weekly blogging had…

The opening Moto3 race went to Kaito Toba who is the first Japanese motorcycle racer to score a win in the entry level…

Da ich die #heiseshow bereits seit einiger Zeit als Audio-Podcast abonniert habe, probierte ich irgendwann auch mal das Video-Format aus und stieß dann schließlich in den Weihnachtsferien auf den c’t uplink Podcast dessen Folge 25.5 sich mit dem Rückblick auf 2018 und den Vorhersagen auf 2019 im Tech-Bereich befasste. Am Ende dieser Sendung verabschiedet sich das Team von c’t uplink von Fabian Scherschel, der die Gelegenheit nutzte um auf die URL auf seinem T-Shirt hinzuweisen,…

I’m not up for Instagram anymore. Every 4 to 6 pictures there is an ad in my feed. This is not what Instagram was like before Facebook acquired it. Just like the social network giant has denied me the pleasure to use my Facebook profile by turning my news feed into an echo chamber I do not feel like scrolling through a photostream where roughly a fifth of the pictures I see are ads. Now…
