Dreamherb experience

2 days ago i tested some dried plants called "dreamherb" that i bought from azarius a long time ago. since then they just lay around in my cupboard.  now i decided it was time to try it out.  after reading some preparation descriptions in the internet, i started: i made myself some tea with about 7g of dried leafs. i left it in the hot boiling water for about 15 minutes. at the same time i made myself something to smoke out of some other part of the dried leaves.  when i was finisehd with rolling i started to drink the tea. man, that was bitter!  that stuff is in the top 3 of the worst tasting things i ever drank! i had about 3/4 liter made but only managed to drink about 1/2 litre.  then i smoked what i had... created. the taste was not THAT bad, but anything is better than drinking these dreamherbs! i felt a little dizzy afterwards, and then went to bed.  well what can i say? when i woke up in the morning i could not remember any dream at all. in fact i also had the impres

the new approach to copy protections for computer games

i noticed in games forums that nowadays the gaming industry changed its approach to copyprotection in some way. brief outline of the situation: so they can sell many many games, gaming companies give almost all games copy protection mechanisms. those SHALL prevent people from copying the games. alas that idea has a problem:those mechanisms for protecting are fascinating themselves. this means that there are people interested in those mechanisms: they want to understand them and then test their skills to see if they can outsmart them. in my opinion this is completely understandable.i admire the brains those people have. and i am most certain that they do not care for the games at all.

an uneventful weekend ends...

i will just give a short update what happened.... friday, i helped my sister with moving into her new flat. but it was by far not that exhausting like on thuesday when we had to install the bed to the flat which was very big. on friday it was "only" the washing machine. what else did happen? not much, i was at one party on saturday evening , which was quite nice. now that i am in the middle of moving out/searching for a flat i look at flats that i go to differently :) party was nice, but i hated it when i realized that there are only couples at the party. normally i dont mind. it was also not like they were making out all the time or something. but still i didnt like it... :) oh yeah, and i again got up on saturday at 5 pm... thats somewhat a strange time... i really need to think if i should change something about that. sunday then.... was mostly a lost day, i got up at 2 pm, then some food. then i sat myself in the garden, the weather was so nice and hot.... messed round
