Photo of the general supply store in Laer
After taking some black-and-white photos of the church the other day, I’ve now taken another photo with my M50 of the tower of the apartment building at the former general supply store in Laer.
Timmer’s Blog
This is Marius Timmer’s personal blog with reports on events I attended or posts about technical and political topics that currently interest me.
Disclaimer: Please keep in mind that German is my mother tongue which is why most of my posts are written in German. But sometimes I feel the urge to be more international. You should be warned that my English isn’t the best.
Goodbye Snapchat
I never really understood how to use snapchat. A few friends used it and made me create a account years ago. Since then I always had it on my phone but never really used it. Today I uninstalled the app and think this will be one of the easy goodbyes.
Polarlights in January
Last night a friend sent me a few photos of the polar lights he just shot. Immediately I looked out of my window and saw all the colorful lights with my own eyes. I managed to take a few photos with my camera as well.
Snowfall in winter
According to the German Weather Service a heavy snow fall was expected over the weekend which caused schools to close on friday. In the end it turned out to be way less heavy. Now we have white landscapes which I love.
RSS is cool
RSS feeds might look like a technology from the 2000s (because it is) and hard to use. But in my eyes they are the key to the best online experience which isn’t dictated by the algorithm.
Leave Twitter!
We have all seen the kind of man behind the company. Such a thing simply should not be supported any longer. Fortunately, there are enough alternatives, but unfortunately, not many people know about them.
OTRS does not sign Admin notifications
Although OTRS is capable of signing and encrypting emails, outgoing admin notifications to agents are not signed. This confuses some of my agents and is puzzling to me.
I love John Candy
I had to think about the actor John Candy recently and wanted to share some thoughts about him and how I always connect him with my own father.
More English please!
I always wanted my blog to be bilangual which it is. But there are only a hand full of English posts. That needs to change which is why I will try to post more, or even exclusive only, in English.
My analoge Nikon film camera
I’ve started a new adventure and switched from digital to analog photography on film. Now I can buy loads of new film again and have it developed. Just like in the old days.
