  • Clean your mp3 library with the power of CPAN

    Last time, I reported my problems with cleaning my iTunes library.

    In the past, I had various problems with storing my mp3s, hard disk failures and consequent attempts to save them etc. I must have played back my backups more than once, anyways, I  nearly have every file at least twice.

  • iTunes is semi-bad

    Due to loniless, I bought an iPod. Looks good and works. It's nice to listen to music again. Didn't do this much lately. Only problem: iTunes drives me crazy. Maybe slightly more than my other media players. Perhaps the time has come to deal with the problem?

  • Das Neue ist unausweichlich

    Das Neue ist unausweichlich, unvermeidlich, unverzichtbar. Es gibt keinen Weg, der aus dem Neuen führt, denn ein solcher Weg wäre auch neu. Es gibt keine Möglichkeit, die Regeln des Neuen zu brechen, denn ein solcher Bruch ist genau das, was die Regeln erfordern.
