New Year’s Eve 2013 to 2014…. The Cold and the Fireworks


I had a bad cold on New Year´s Eve so that it was not the best day for me. I visited my mother and her husband who catched a cold too. We thought “Well, shit happen´s” and just waited for midnight. It was not a real party for us I would say. But still better than being alone at home. Because of the cold we all didn´t even want to make a big party. There was sadly this “Oh when is it midnight?

This Gainward GeForce GTX570 Phantom Graphics Card is Roasted


I got my first pre-Christmas surprise yesterday. But it was not a good surprise. I was working on my computer and from one second to the other, ugly graphic artifacts appeared on my screen. I know this is never a good sign and I hoped that there is a problem with a driver as I messed around with the drivers one day earlier.
