<p>Don’t steal. It’s a lesson that children are taught from the youngest age and a core principle in every society. <a href="http://github.com/psgroove/psgroove/blob/master/README.md">The PSGroove</a> sets out to follow this mantra in several ways. It is an open source implementation of <a href="http://hackaday.com/2010/08/19/modchip-hacks-ps3-via-usb-port/">the PSJailbreak hardware</a> we covered a couple of weeks back. It’s difficult to find a definitive source of information on that hardware but <a href="http://www.ps3news.com/forums/ps3-hacks/psjailbreak-detectable-bannable-psn-dumped-easily-112074.html">many have speculated that the original device contains stolen code</a>. Whether that’s true or not is moot as the PSGroove doesn’t include the backup manager program alleged to violate copyright.</p>
<p>The device is also aimed at running homebrew, and doesn’t natively allow one to play backups. It runs on a variety of AVR hardware, including the Teensy boards. If you have one of them, it’s just a matter of compiling the code and unlocking the potential of your PlayStation 3.</p>
<p>===</p>
<p>This is the final part, fuck you Sony, we will have OtherOS back soon!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Afgelopen weekend was het dan zo ver: met heerlijk weer de hele dag door de grachten van Leiden getuft! Ik was zeer tevreden over de prestaties van Bonke, hij voer me binnen 37 minuten de 4,6 (~ 7,5 km/u) km van de ligplek naar mijn huis en dat met fikse tegenwind! In de stad mijn vriendin, een vriend en de nodige fourage opgepikt en varen maar!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Schip ahoy!</div>
<br />
Er vielen nog wel wat kinderziektes op: de hendel van de keerkoppeling zat niet heel vast en trilde steeds los. Hierdoor was het soms zoeken naar de hendel en dat is niet heel handig als je op een file sloepjes afvaart. Inmiddels is de hendel definitief vast gelast.<br />
Ook sluit de oliepeilstok niet helemaal af en wordt daardoor uit het blok geblazen en spettert er wat olie uit het carter. Inmiddels zijn er ook wat lasnaden van de uitlaat door de trillingen gescheurd, maar dat wordt binnenkort opgelost door een flexibele pijp tussen motor en uitlaatdemper. Deze problemen stonden een fijn weekend gelukkig niet in de weg!<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Na bijna een jaar klussen aan Bonke kan ik dan eindelijk met gepaste trots melden: hij doet het! Maar dat is makkelijker gezegd dan gedaan...<br />
<br />
De motor is in totaal nog een goeie 6 keer op en af zijn plateau getild (met z'n tweeën!) voordat alles goed was: de uitlijning van de twee tandwielen was niet juist, de ketting stond niet strak genoeg, de motor liet de boot teveel resoneren door de starre opstelling (motor direct vast op de romp in plaats van op motorsteunen) en ga zo maar door. En elke keer zeiden we tegen elkaar: "dit is echt de laatste keer ..."<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TGPlzb2VuFI/AAAAAAAAAhE/vw70XO3ErtA/s1600/IMG_0430.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="533" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TGPlzb2VuFI/AAAAAAAAAhE/vw70XO3ErtA/s640/IMG_0430.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Echt de laatste keer!</div>
<br />
Enfin, afgelopen zondag was het tegen de avondklok, na een dag hard klussen, dan toch zo ver. Na een laatste checkup ging ie dan toch het water in. De tandwielen die we hadden gekozen stonden met elkaar in een verhouding van 1:1.53. Dit komt dicht bij de perfecte verhouding van 1:1.55 die, door het beoogde toerental van de motor van 2000 rpm, de schroefas een toerental van 1290 rpm moet geven. Bij de huidige schroef was dat exact wat nodig is voor optimaal rendement.<br />
<br />
Tijdens de eerste proefvaart bleek al snel dat de snelheid van Bonke niet of nauwelijks hoger lag dan voordat de nieuwe motor en keerkoppeling geplaatst waren. Met de digitale toerenteller was af te lezen dat het toerental van de motor niet 2000 maar 1500 rpm was, de schroefas in de z'n vooruit maar 300-400 rpm haalde en dat hij opmerkelijk genoeg in z'n achteruit wel 1250 rpm haalde. Ergens had een rekenfout geleid tot een ideaal toerental op de schroefas, maar slechts in z'n achteruit.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TGPpEUaLDwI/AAAAAAAAAhM/EM8ROsa_p6s/s1600/IMG_0434.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="533" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TGPpEUaLDwI/AAAAAAAAAhM/EM8ROsa_p6s/s640/IMG_0434.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Keerkoppeling in z'n vooruit
</div>
<br />
Omdat het toerental in z'n vooruit makkelijk varieerde en soms bij meer toeren op de motor alleen maar lager werd, ontstond het vermoeden dat de keerkoppeling slipte. Na de documentatie bestudeerd te hebben die we vonden op de website van&nbsp;<a href="http://www.motorsleepboot.nl/">Vereniging de Motorsleepboot</a>, bleek dat we de slip konden afstellen en dat bleek gisteravond makkelijker dan verwacht: verende borgpen indrukken, gegroefde stelmoer naar smaak aandraaien en klaar is Kees. Op voor een tweede proefvaart!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TGPqn2tmybI/AAAAAAAAAhU/1rcp8IVlwYM/s1600/IMG_0432.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="533" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TGPqn2tmybI/AAAAAAAAAhU/1rcp8IVlwYM/s640/IMG_0432.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wauw, schroefwater!</div>
<br />
Het was een verschil tussen dag en nacht: niet alleen was er duidelijk schroefwater zichtbaar, we trokken zelfs golven! Motor liep netjes, keerkoppeling werd niet te warm, keurig! Alleen moet de uitlaat, die nu direct aan het dak van de kajuit gelast zit, nog en flexibel stuk krijgen: bij een bepaald toerental schud het dak vervaarlijk heen en weer. Maar, belangrijker is: er kan gevaren worden!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3446725032330483731-6072935666742141903?l=blog.skoef.nl' alt='' /></div>]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m used to navigating through tabs in Firefox with my keyboard so i tend to close them with Control-W too. Now you&#8217;ll notice, Control-W is really close to Control-Q&#8230;</p>
<p>Control-Q is the &#8220;Oh, hi Honey!&#8221;-button. It instantly quits (all of) your firefox windows. Nice feature when you&#8217;re surfing for porn, but during non-porn-related surfing <span style="font-size: 7px">(&#8230; wait &#8230; what?)</span> it&#8217;s very annoying to accidentally hit Control-Q when you meant Control-W and suddenly all your tabs are gone.</p>
<p>Since i have eight desktops to switch to and no Honey walking around the house, i have no use for such a function. As it seems there is no way to disable this &#8216;feature&#8217; from within the standard Firefox UI, an addon had to be found.</p>
<p>Enter &#8216;<a href="http://mozilla.dorando.at/keyconfig.xpi">keyconfig.xpi</a>&#8216; (<a href="http://www.freshdot.net/jnk/keyconfig.xpi">mirror</a>).<br />At the time of writing, this addon was not available through the &#8216;Get Add-ons&#8217;-feature in Firefox.</p>
<p>Install the addon, restart Firefox, and you&#8217;ll find a new menu entry in the <strong>Tools</strong> menu called <strong>Keyconfig&#8230;</strong>. Click it, pops a window, you&#8217;ll be able to rebind and disable a lot of keys.</p>
<p>One of which is &#8216;<strong>Quit [File]</strong>&#8216;.</p>
<p>So much win.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Zoals in vorige post aangegeven moest er nog een onderdeel van de draaibank komen om de overbrenging van de motor naar de keerkoppeling te kunnen maken. Inmiddels is dit onderdeel klaar en kan middels tandwielen en een ketting de kracht van de motor op de schroefas worden overgebracht:<br />

Inmiddels staat de motor vastgelast in de boot. Foto's daarvan volgen!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>De vraag van vandaag, 28 gram goud of hetzelfde gewicht aan MicroSD&#8217;s met mp3&#8242;s?</p>
<ul>
<li>Een ounce (28gr) goud kost nu zo&#8217;n € 900. (<a href="http://www.goldprice.org/gold-price.html">Goldprice.org</a>)</li>
<li>Een MicroSD van 0,5 gram met een capaciteit van 32Gb kost € 75 (<a href="https://www.afuture.nl/products/8376/AP32GSDHC4-R_Apacer_32GB_microSDHC_Card.html">Afuture Apacer reclame</a>).</li>
<li>Een nummer uit de iTunes store kost €1 voor 4Mb (<a href="http://www.apple.com/itunes/">iTunes</a>).</li>
</ul>
<p>Even uitrekenen hoeveel 28gr aan volle MicroSD kost:</p>
<ul>
<li>Hardware: 56 kaartjes * € 75 per stuk = € 4200</li>
<li>Tracks: 56 kaartjes * 8000 tracks * € 1 per stuk = € 448000,-</li>
</ul>
<p>Grand Total: € 452.200,-</p>
<p>It&#8217;s true folks, 28 gram aan MicroSD gevuld muziek is ongeveer 500x meer waard dan goud en ongeveer net zoveel waard als twee leuke opknapperts in het <a href="http://www.funda.nl/koop/hilversum/huis-47778425-bodemanstraat-24/">Havenkwartier van Hillywood</a>&#8230;</p>
<p>Dusch&#8230; Wat heb je liever? MicroSD-kaartjes gevuld met muziek of 28 grammetjes goud?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently i felt the sudden urge to allocate four 50 gigabyte large files on my disk. Without thinking about it too much, i fired up <em>dd</em> and sipped my coke while my server nearly died under the added IO-load&#8230;</p>
<p>I searched the web for clues with keywords like &#8216;quickly allocate space for large file&#8217; and such, but this did not bring me to the widely know concept of &#8216;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_file">sparse files</a>&#8216;. Ofcourse i knew about sparse files, my favorite torrent client uses sparse-files to pre-allocate space for downloads! Why didn&#8217;t i think of that immediately&#8230;</p>
<p>For the sake of findability, i&#8217;m posting how to quickly create huge files on disk when you dont care about the contents:</p>
<pre>
[root@comma:~] # dd if=/dev/zero of=bigfile1 bs=1M count=0 seek=50K

[root@comma:~] # ls -la bigfile1
-rw-------  1 root    root    53687091200 2010-07-27 21:01 bigfile1

[root@comma:~] # du -h bigfile1
0       bigfile1
</pre>
<p>While &#8216;<em>ls</em>&#8216; sees a 50G large file, the actual on-disk size of the file is 0 bytes. It&#8217;s a sparse file.</p>
<p>Perhaps this helps someone in the future.</p>

<p>&nbsp;Tasks will be:</p>

<li>maintaining the WordPress and MediaWiki installations, keeping plugins up-to-date etc.</li>
<li>keeping an eye on the syndicated blogfeeds (check for errors, update url&#8217;s etc.)</li>

<p>Not a lot, really.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Er is weer vooruitgang geboekt met betrekking tot de nieuwe aandrijving van Bonke: de motorsteun is geplaatst en de motor is er bovenop gezet:
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TE1gcCZQufI/AAAAAAAAAgs/KBnoVvkolj8/s1600/photo-3.JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="533" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Fq4PfBtBjoo/TE1gcCZQufI/AAAAAAAAAgs/KBnoVvkolj8/s400/photo-3.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
De motor op de motorsteun
</div>
<br />
Zoals je ziet is de overbrenging tussen de motor en de keerkoppeling nog niet verwezenlijkt; daar moet nog een onderdeel voor van de draaibank komen. Ook is te zien dat we de tank hebben verwijderd, dit omdat we niet wisten of hij met tank en al binnen de kajuit paste, maar het paste allemaal keurig!<br />
<br />
De uitlaat en het luchtfilter heb ik ook tijdelijk verwijderd, die zaten me een beetje in de weg en moeten we nog zien weg te werken:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
De motor van binnenuit gezien, zonder uitlaat of luchtfilter</div>
<br />
Voor de overbrenging heb ik 2 taper-bush kettingwielen gekocht. Zodra het nog te vervaaardigen onderdeel op het vliegwiel zit kan ik die aanbrengen en de ketting plaatsen. Dan de motor vastlassen, het luchtfilter en de uitlaat plaatsen en de gaskabel aansluiten. Als het goed is kunnen we dan eindelijk het water op. Hopelijk is het dan nog lekker weer...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3446725032330483731-4421038838879799726?l=blog.skoef.nl' alt='' /></div>]]></content:encoded>

<p>Just came up with a simple pattern for <a class="reference external" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_pattern">singletons</a> in Python using a <a class="reference external" href="http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0318/">class decorator</a>:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
def singleton(cls):
    instances = {}
    def instance():
        if cls not in instances:
            instances[cls] = cls()
        return instances[cls]
    return instance
</pre>
<p>Little demo:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
&gt;&gt;&gt; &#64;singleton
... class Foo(object):
...     pass
...
&gt;&gt;&gt; f1 = Foo()
&gt;&gt;&gt; print id(f1)
3077430124
&gt;&gt;&gt; f2 = Foo()
&gt;&gt;&gt; print ...</pre>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am still processing what just happened to me. It still feels somewhat surreal even though i hold the cold reality in my hands. This does show the power of social media; <a href="http://twitter.com/">Twitter</a> in this case. It also shows there are, still, very friendly people on this planet.</p>
<p>What just happened? Let me tell you the story:</p>
<p>It&#8217;s friday afternoon and i am at home with a broken <a href="http://8n1.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/133157390.png">metatarsal bone</a>. Normally i would be enjoying a cold beer with my colleagues at work but due to the broken bone, i am somewhat immobilized.</p>
<p>My colleague, Arjen, started all this, this friday, and tweeted:</p>
<blockquote><p>@sndrsmnk je kan vandaag wel een vrimibo-biertje gaan drinken @dekleinebaron alleen lastig met gips. Tenzij [ze] een vers tapje komen brengen.. zou leuk zijn wanneer @dekleinebaron mee leest. Wellicht komen ze heel #spontaan een glaasje brengen. #vrimibo #mank</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="font-size: 9px;">Translated: You could go get a friday-afternoon-beer at dekleinebaron, but that might be hard with a plastered leg. Unless they come over and bring you a fresh beer.. Would be fun if dekleinebaron was reading this. Perhaps they could spontaneously bring it over.</span></p>
<p>A few tweets and one direct message later, <a href="http://www.dekleinebaron.nl/">De Kleine Baron</a> responds:</p>
<blockquote><p>@steinfortschaap als het een steenworp afstand is kan @dekleinebaron wel een biertje komen brengen.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="font-size: 9px;">Translated: If it really is a short distance away, dekleinebaron could come and bring a beer.</span></p>
<p>I was astonished to see who turns up at my doorstep:</p>
<p><a href="http://8n1.org/?attachment_id=53" rel="attachment wp-att-53"><img src="http://8n1.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/dekleinebaron_jupiler-225x300.jpg" alt="" title="De Kleine Baron brings a cold beverage!" width="225" height="300" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-53" /></a></p>
<p>A cold, half a liter of Jupiler beer delivered to my doorstep by <a href="http://www.dekleinebaron.nl/">De Kleine Baron</a>. These guys are the top-dogs. I am now ashamed that i have only been there once, despite living here for almost 4 years now.</p>
<p>Thanks, everyone involved in this social media thing.<br />
This warms my heart, and no, that&#8217;s not the alcohol talking. :D</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;d like to share with you how i configured my host-os to support VMs with secure and flexible storage.<br />
My setup is based on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx, 64bit, running on an Intel Core i7 with 8GB of memory. Storage is provided through a, four 1TB Western Digital disk, RAID-5 array with LVM on top. Each VM also runs with LVM.<br />
<span id="more-12"></span></p>
<h3>Host OS</h3>
<p>My host-os is a debootstrap&#8217;ed install of Ubuntu. The idea being that my host-os doesn&#8217;t need to run anything else than the essentials needed to provide networking, storage and VMs. Because i work with the GUI of <em>virt-manager</em>, i had to install some X11-packages and enable SSH X11-forwarding to pull the GUI to wherever i am.</p>
<h3>Networking on host-os</h3>
<p>My host-os has a dedicated IP. All my VMs have their own IP in a /29 IP-netblock assigned to me. This /29 is routed to my host-os&#8217; dedicated IP by my ISP but i have not configured any of these IPs on my host-os. The host-os only has a route for the network on it&#8217;s br0 bridge interface so it knows this traffic is &#8216;local&#8217; to it:</p>
<pre># The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

# The primary bridge
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
    address 213.154.229.18
    netmask 255.255.255.192
    gateway 213.154.229.1
    bridge_ports eth0
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 0
    bridge_maxwait 0
    up /sbin/ip -6 addr add 2001:7b8:3:47:213:154:229:18/64 dev br0
    up /sbin/ip ro ad 213.154.236.176/29 dev br0
    up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/br0/forwarding</pre>
<p>IPv6 is autoconfigured by router advertisements on the network but because MAC-addresses in virtualised setups tend to change i add a static IPv6 address to each server. The static IPv6 address is in the same network as the EUI64 autoconfigured address, so this works routing-wise.</p>
<p>And since my host-os does not function as a gateway for the VMs, i can now use all of the eight IPs routed to my host-os IP. None are lost to network, broadcast and gateway addresses.</p>
<h3>Networking on VMs</h3>
<p>To use the eight IPs from the /29 and not route them myself, i had to manually configure routing in the VMs. I use &#8216;ip&#8217; from the <em>iproute</em> package. It beats ifconfig by a long run:</p>
<pre># The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
	up /sbin/ip link set eth0 up
	up /sbin/ip addr add 213.154.236.176/32 dev eth0
	up /sbin/ip -6 addr add 2001:7b8:3:47:213:154:236:176/64 dev eth0
	up /sbin/ip ro ad 213.154.236.176/29 dev eth0
	up /sbin/ip ro ad 213.154.229.0/26 dev eth0
	up /sbin/ip ro ad default via 213.154.229.1 dev eth0
	up /usr/sbin/arp -s 213.154.229.1 00:00:5e:00:01:01
	down /usr/sbin/arp -d 213.154.229.1
	down /sbin/ip ro flu dev eth0
	down /sbin/ip ad flu dev eth0
	down /sbin/ip link set eth0 down</pre>
<p>So, i up the link, configure the IP-address as a /32, add a route for the network this VM is in and add a route for the network my host-os&#8217; gateway is in. This last step is essential since the default gateway is in another network and we need to tell the VM how to reach it.</p>
<p>Then there&#8217;s the only weak-spot in this design. I manually add a static ARP-entry for the default gateway. Somehow ARP doesn&#8217;t do it&#8217;s thing, so the VM in 213.154.236.176/29 doesn&#8217;t get the MAC-address for the gateway automatically. I have not looked into this yet.</p>
<p>IPv6 on VMs is autoconfigured by router advertisements on the host-os network. They travel across the bridge-interface to the VMs that are connected with it. This means it is once again really easy to configure IPv6 on the host. Just add a static IP and use the route info from router advertisements.</p>
<h3>Storage on host-os</h3>
<p>My host has 4 disks, all partitioned as follows:</p>
<pre>   Device Boot  Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *       1        1216     9764864   fd  Linux raid autodetect
/dev/sda2        1216        1703     3906560   fd  Linux raid autodetect
/dev/sda3        1703      121602   963089408   fd  Linux raid autodetect</pre>
<p>These twelve partitions are used in <em>mdadm</em> software-raid:</p>
<pre>md0 : active raid1 sdd1[3] sdb1[1] sdc1[2] sda1[0]
md1 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdc2[1]
md2 : active raid1 sdd2[1] sdb2[0]
md3 : active raid5 sda3[0] sdd3[3] sdb3[1] sdc3[2]
</pre>
<p>The function of each of these RAID-arrays is explained below:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>/dev/md0</b><br />
Is used as the ~10GB root-fs for my host-os.</li>
<li><b>/dev/md1 and /dev/md2</b><br />
Are both used as swap-partitions. I intentionally made this two arrays over two disks to double the swap-space it would offer.</li>
<li><b>/dev/md3</b><br />
This ~3TB device is used as a PV (<em>physical device</em>) in the VG (<em>volume group</em>) &#8216;vms&#8217; which provides LVs (<em>logical volumes</em>) for my VMs to use as &#8216;raw block device&#8217;-storage.</li>
</ul>
<p>A little more on the LVM-setup. The complete /dev/md3 device is one PV for VG &#8216;vms&#8217;. Each VM has just one LV in this VG which functions as the &#8216;raw disk device&#8217; for the VM:</p>
<pre>root@vm:~# lvscan
  ACTIVE            '/dev/vms/vm_dot' [500.00 GiB] inherit
  ACTIVE            '/dev/vms/vm_pound' [500.00 GiB] inherit
  ACTIVE            '/dev/vms/vm_services' [50.00 GiB] inherit</pre>
<h3>Storage on VMs</h3>
<p>My VMs, if Linux, run LVM on their &#8216;drives&#8217; too. This way i can resize partitions inside the VM and the entire VM&#8217;s &#8216;drive&#8217; too!</p>
<p>If i run &#8216;<em>partprobe</em>&#8216; in my host-os, i can see the partitions of my VMs in my host os:</p>
<pre>
root@vm:~# partprobe
root@vm:~# ls -l /dev/mapper
[ .. ]
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 251,  0 2010-07-18 21:50 vms-vm_dot
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 251, 16 2010-07-18 21:50 vms-vm_dotp1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 251, 17 2010-07-18 21:50 vms-vm_dotp2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 251, 18 2010-07-18 21:50 vms-vm_dotp5
root@vm:/dev# vgscan
  Reading all physical volumes.  This may take a while...
  Found volume group "dot" using metadata type lvm2
  Found volume group "pound" using metadata type lvm2
  Found volume group "vms" using metadata type lvm2
</pre>
<p>So as you can see, LVM on the host-os sees the VGs and LVs created inside the VMs.  If i had used encryption in the VM-installation, the VM-disks would not be available to the host-os, ofcourse.</p>
<h3>KSM Kernel Samepage Merging</h3>
<p>A really nice feature in 2.6.32+ kernels is the Kernel Samepage Merging feature. Basically this maps memoryblocks that are identical to another memoryblock so that only one copy of data is kept in memory for both allocations. It means VMs share memory that has the same content and this immensely decreases the memorypressure of VMs on the host-os. <a href="http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_32#head-d3f32e41df508090810388a57efce73f52660ccb">More information</a> on the subject can be found on the internet. </p>
<p>My setup shares ~400.000 pages on average. Each page is 4096 bytes large, so this makes for 1.52GB of shared memory. Which is just marvelous.</p>
<h3>Concluding</h3>
<p>I migrated from a &#8217;single host setup&#8217; to this &#8216;virtualized setup&#8217; after a disk-crash with my old system. I had good backups and was able to restore mostly everything. This gave me the opportunity to split up my own stuff from stuff i host for friends. They now &#8216;live in their own VM&#8217;. Also, i introduced a VM dedicated to &#8217;services&#8217;, like DNS, SpamAssassin, MySQL, etcetera.</p>
<p>While this all seems to work really nice, i am now faced with how to efficiently backup all essential configuration and data from these VMs. Requires a different strategy as with a &#8217;single host setup&#8217;.</p>
<p>Happy for now. Performs very well. Finally my hardware is stable.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This has been making the rounds on Facebook. Bobby McFerrin demonstrating how audiences intuitively can sing the pentatonic scale:</p>

<p><a href="http://vimeo.com/5732745">World Science Festival 2009: Bobby McFerrin Demonstrates the Power of the Pentatonic Scale</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user1103909">World Science Festival</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-740"></span></p>
<p>What&#8217;s being shown in the video is really the reason why music is universal to all cultures. The audience knows what notes McFerrin is jumping to because they can literally feel them.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the brief bit of physics behind it:</p>
<p>The major pentatonic scale is formed by taking the 5 &#8220;fifths&#8221; in succession. If you start on C, you get the notes C, G, D, A, and E. Put those into a single octave and you get the scale of C, D, E, G, A. (In solfege, this is &#8220;Do, So, Re, La, Mi&#8221;, rearranged to &#8220;Do, Re, Mi, So, La&#8221;).</p>
<p>These &#8220;fifths&#8221; are formed by a fundamental ratio in nature of 3:2. (If middle C rings at 291 Hz, then the fifth above it, a G, rings at 392 Hz). The notes&#8217; waveforms will literally line up in space.</p>
<p>That lining up is felt in our bodies. That&#8217;s why the audience can sing those notes.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also choirs will nearly always go out of tune only on the 2 notes *not* in the pentatonic scale &#8211; in C major, that&#8217;s F and B (or Fa and Ti).</p>
<p>McFerrin knows this well, it should come as no surprise that the melody to &#8220;Don&#8217;t Worry Be Happy&#8221; is pentatonic. Which is why it&#8217;s so catchy and memorable.</p>
<p>If you want the pentatonic scale to make you feel happy today, just visit <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9K4BKkLaCI">here</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To disable &#8216;Plymouth&#8217;, the graphical boot screen in recent Ubuntu installs, as best you possibly can, the following steps are to be taken:</p>
<p>Using the &#8216;grub-pc&#8217; package for your bootloader, change the following lines in <em>/etc/default/grub</em>:</p>
<blockquote><p>GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=&#8221;nosplash INIT_VERBOSE=yes init=/sbin/init -v&#8221;<br />
GRUB_TERMINAL=console</p></blockquote>
<p><span id="more-1"></span></p>
<p>This disables splashscreens and tells init (Upstart) to be verbose. Next is the &#8220;graphic mode&#8221; console, to disable this change <em>/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf</em> or create <em>/etc/modprobe.d/fuck-plymouth.conf</em> and add the following line:</p>
<blockquote><p># Disable VGA framebuffer<br />
blacklist vga16fb<br />
blacklist fbcon<br />
blacklist tileblit<br />
blacklist font<br />
blacklist bitblit<br />
blacklist softcursor<br />
blacklist vgastate
</p></blockquote>
<p>Final step is disabling Plymouth. These packages are &#8216;deeply nested&#8217; in some essential Ubuntu packages. Removing them requires some extra effort. The simple approach would be to remove any file matching <em>/etc/init/plymouth.*</em> so the shit doesn&#8217;t get started. Have to repeat it during upgrades. Don&#8217;t forget to create a backup if you plan to fail.</p>
<p>Packages matching <em>/^plymouth/</em> can be removed (at your own risk). Some Ubuntu packages depend on Plymouth like <em>ubuntu-desktop</em> which can safely be removed but might mess up future upgrades. I have not noticed any problems after &#8216;working around&#8217; these dependencies:</p>
<p>Perhaps i had already removed <em>ubuntu-desktop</em> earlier as i only had &#8216;cryptsetup&#8217; depending on plymouth. So i was like:</p>
<blockquote><p># wget http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ [ .. ] /cryptsetup_1.1.2-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb<br />
# mkdir -p deb/DEBIAN<br />
# dpkg -x cryptsetup_1.1.2-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb deb<br />
# dpkg -e cryptsetup_1.1.2-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb deb/DEBIAN<br />
# vim deb/DEBIAN/control</p></blockquote>
<p>I fiddled with the <em>Depends:</em> line and then i went:</p>
<blockquote><p># dpkg -b deb/ cryptsetup_1.1.2-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb<br />
# dpkg -i cryptsetup_1.1.2-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb</p></blockquote>
<p>Now cryptsetup did not depend on Plymouth anymore. Here be dragons: removing <em>libplymouth</em> this way breaks <em>mountall</em>. This binary is linked against <em>libply.so.2</em> and would require a recompile.</p>
<p>Doing all this gives you a text-based boot. No fancy progress-dots and fugly logos. You&#8217;ll notice that Upstart output differs from SysV-init output. Also, upstart &#8216;hides&#8217; the child process&#8217; STDOUT &#038; STDERR which makes debugging of problems more of a challenge.</p>
<p>Have fun.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The scrapmame cabinet is getting to a functional level. Today I was able to play a game of asteroids, pacman and galaga on it.<br />
All the buttons have been wired up to the controller using <a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MFrey_Screw_terminal.jpg">screw terminals</a> (kroonsteentje) for easy (dis)assembly.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 528px"><img title="Galaga running on scrapmame" src="http://i.sigio.nl/45d6b752f3f2ca72e333786c9327b50d.jpg" alt="" width="518" height="778" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Galaga running on scrapmame</p></div>
<p>Before getting there I had to do some creative wiring, as it seems I cut some corners with wiring up the controller. A few separate ground-points were connected, however this was causing interesting signals on the analog joystick axes. A lot of trial-and-error later it seems I have clean inputs from all buttons and the digital joystick.</p>
<p>I still need to hook up the second stick (which will hopefully arrive from DX this week), some buttons (insert coin, start game) and a usb keypad (for misc buttons). A set of speakers should also arrive this week, allowing the scrapmame to make a decent amount of noise.</p>
<p>Next week I&#8217;ll probably fit in the PC (I&#8217;ve been using my laptop for testing so far) and then I&#8217;ll start on the launcher/menu interface.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll try to add some more pictures of the inside of the cabinet later.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After the woodworking on the scrapmame it was time for the electronics.</p>
<p>The first bit was unsoldering/cutting the wires on the sacrificed PSX controller and then connecting new wires to the solder-pads<br />
<img src="http://i.sigio.nl/6092b98828136efa2099919ff6370ed8.jpg" alt="first wires attached" /><br />
The yellow wires are for the direction buttons, white for the 4 fire-buttons and blue is the common ground.</p>
<p>After a long soldering session the result looked like this:<br />
<img src="http://i.sigio.nl/0fbda0b362ec8c07e45187c76d587c98.jpg" alt="The final product" /><br />
A few more solder-pads were connected to ground wires (or each-other) and the red wires connect to the shoulder-buttons and analog-stick buttons of the PSX. The 2 new yellow wires connect to &#8217;start&#8217; and &#8217;select&#8217;.</p>
<p>This would give me a total of 16 buttons wired to a single PSX controller. On the mame cabinet this will translate to a sets of 4 directional buttons and 3 fire buttons for each player (2 players) and 2 remaining buttons for &#8217;start&#8217; or &#8216;insert coin&#8217;&#8230; I&#8217;m not too sure yet about what would be the &#8216;best&#8217; combination.</p>
<p>Lastly, before calling it a night, I wired up the ground-connections on the joystick section, so I only need to bring 5 cables up to the stick ( and not 8 )<br />
<img src="http://i.sigio.nl/c5b1da1a20071121c5eaaa25d8f6ddfd.jpg" alt="common ground on the joystick microswitches" /></p>
<p>Next time I plan to connect all the wires to plugs that connect to the buttons (still need to buy the correct sized plugs) and joystick microswitches (which you can see in the background of the first picture)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At <a href="http://www.revspace.nl">Revelation Space</a> I have been doing some woodworking for a project I&#8217;m working on. I&#8217;m normaly the guy with two left hands when it comes to working with heavy machinery and old-skool hardware, but I must say I&#8217;m not doing too bad.<br />
It helps that revspace has more then enough of the necessary tools (at home I only have a hammer and a screwdriver <img src='http://blog.maniac.nl/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>
<p>The project is a self-built Arcade cabinet, which at this time has been called &#8216;ScrapMAME&#8217;, as it&#8217;s been built completely out of scrap-materials.<br />
<img src="http://i.sigio.nl/86a3ed588db37a70b492521d24573188.jpg" alt="Step 1... getting lots of wood" /></p>
<p>I <img align=right src="http://i.sigio.nl/5d6354279f4074f434606ae06b931240.jpg" alt="PSX Controller (pre disassembly)" />have built the frame and outsides of the cabinet from wood boards that were originally bolted onto the windows in the workshop, together with some wood beams that were still lying around the space.<br />
The buttons and joystick have been ordered from DealExtreme, and the first batch has arrived. Hopefully my second shipment with the remaining parts will arrive soon.<br />
I&#8217;m using this <a href="http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.37485">arcade stick</a>, and <a href="http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.37486">these buttons</a> from DX. The buttons will be wired to the pcb of an <a href="http://i.sigio.nl/5d6354279f4074f434606ae06b931240.jpg">old PSX controller</a>, which will be connected to a <a href="http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.11707">PSX->USB adapter</a>.</p>
<p><strong>2010/06/26</strong>: The buttons and joystick arrived, so I could finally drill the holes.<br />

<img src="http://i.sigio.nl/f175727294d1ac38144f8bab983785b2.jpg" alt="Holes for the fire-buttons and joysticks" /></p>
<p>There is still lots to be done&#8230; which will be added as soon as I get to it ;P</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>En zo zitten we weer een dagje in de kelder. De kelder waar alle systemen staan. Waar geen normale werkplek aanwezig is, op mijn eigen meegebrachte lamptopje na. Daar waar ook geen 3g of wifi is. Dus even geheel afgesloten van de buiten wereld. Bijna er is hier nog wel een auto radio opgehangen welke werkt. Een supertech met invoer voor een cassettebandje met auto reverse. Alleen <a href="http://www.decibel.nl/" >decibel</a> zit op de voorkeursknoppen.</p>
<p>In de kelder is het ook nog eens koud. Gister toen ik naar buiten kwam in het zonnetje, voelde dat echt heerlijk. Terwijl je het dan pas koud krijgt, voel het warme zonnetje lekker aan en sta je gewoon een paar minuten te genieten om warm te worden.</p>
<p>Nog een paar minuten, een stuk of 18 volgens de timer op me Desire. Over 18 minuten zou de back-up klaar moeten zijn en kan ik een volgende starten. Als die daad werkelijk klaar is, de aftel logica van het back-up programma is niet altijd even betrouwbaar. Het kan zo nog maar eens 15 tot 20 minuten langer duren. Ach, en daarna de volgende back-up.. geschatte tijd 50 minuten. Ik zit hier nog wel even.</p>
<p>De radio heeft ruis erdoor heen. Op welke knoppen ik het ook probeer, het wordt niet veel beter. Dan is het maar tijd voor me iPod. De <a href="http://www.crapfm.nl/" >CrapFM</a> uitzending van gisteravond. Verzoekplatenfestijn, een zeer leuke uitzending met een verschillende verwachte en ook onverwachte/onbekende nummers. Nummers die ik niet kende, maar wel leuk zijn. Zo leer je nog eens wat muziek kennen. Vanavond eens kijken of er van die artiesten wat in <a href="http://spotify.nl/" >Spotify</a> te vinden is. Of de rest van ze ook zo leuk is.</p>
<p>En zo loopt de volgende back-up. Geschatte tijd door de applicatie is 20 minuten. Eens kijken hoeveel er dat werkelijk gaan worden. Ik schat op een 40 minuten.</p>
<p>De eerste paar nummers voor een volgende verzoekfestijn staan alweer in een lijstje. Van die nummers waar je aan gaat denken als je andere nummers aan het luisteren bent. Owja, dit en dit nummer. Van die nummers waar je normaal niet aan denkt. Behalve als je in een koude kelder zit met een muziekje en een timer. Een timer om back-up voortgang te controleren.</p>
<p>De back-up is dan eindelijk bijna klaar. Nog een twee minuten, ook al kunnen dat er nog drie worden, dan is die klaar. Kan ik de boel weer terug zetten en hier gaan opruimen. Vergunning inleveren en opwarmen in het zonnetje. Terug naar kantoor om maar daar de administratie bij te werken met wat ik allemaal gedaan heb. Hoe ver de voortgang is en dat soort meuk. Een nee, dit stukje typen komt daar niet in te staan.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[On numerous occasions I have lamented both the design and the typical usage of cron to friends and other geeks. My main gripes:
<ul>
<li> jobs are not protected against running concurrently (design issue)
</li><li> intervals are fixed (design issue)
</li><li> people tend to schedule the same job at the same time on whole clusters of machines (typical usage issue)
</li></ul>

The first issue can be fixed with tools like <code>lockfile</code> and <code>setlock</code> — a lot of red tape for something that should be a default feature.
<p>
The second and third issue are closely related in that both cause undesirable load spikes because many things happen at the same time, either because of intervals phasing up or because of similar jobs running on a bunch of machines at the same time, perhaps hammering the network.
</p><p>
A specific pet peeve is <a href="http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2004-April/016708.html">Mailman Reminder Day</a>. Firstly, I just don’t see the point; if my address is on a mailing list and that list is practically dead, I <em>just don’t care</em>. Secondly, it means every first of the month
I have tens of reminders that I just delete. Some of these lists are busy — for those, the reminder is a minor nuisance. But many lists are extremely quiet (think software release announcements) and for some of these lists, the reminders are over 50% of the total mail volume. It’s so wasteful. Also, I can’t help but think that all those reminders being sent out at the same time (well, divided over 24 hours because of time zone differences) cannot be good for the mail ecosystem as a whole.
</p><p>
For issues two and three, Colm MacCárthaigh wrote a few great posts detailing why cron is bad, and showcasing one potential solution to the issues at hand. I suggest reading these posts fully, they are very insightful:
</p><ul>
<li><a href="http://www.stdlib.net/~colmmacc/2009/09/14/period-pain/">Period Pain</a>
</li><li><a href="http://www.stdlib.net/~colmmacc/2009/09/27/period-pain-part-2/">Period Pain part 2</a>
</li><li><a href="http://www.stdlib.net/~colmmacc/2009/11/26/period-pain-3/">Period Pain 3</a>
</li></ul>

This post was inspired by my pet peeve about Mailman and about jobs running in parallel unintendedly; this post was triggered by <a href="http://instituut.net/">Job Snijders</a> pointing me to <a href="http://berezecki.com/?p=22">another interesting post</a>; Colm’s posts above were referred to in the comments.]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Omdat de database van spotify te beperkt is&#8230;</p>
<p>Went from the east to west, With stories to erase.<br />
From my heart, my fingers and my face, I’ve tried my very best.<br />
No matter wherever  I am, There’s nothing I can do.<br />
Cause my love has only one name, And it’s you.</p>
<p>I believe that some things are destined, They’re meant to happen<br />
I believe that my heart had choosen, The one in a million<br />
I’ve opened all doors and all access, For you to get into<br />
Now this heart is cold and is homeless, Because of you</p>
<p>Memories forced me to remember, To safe love from anger.<br />
I can’t stop myself but to wonder, Wished i had been better.<br />
Counting the time that I’ve wasted, Over someone new.<br />
Cause one thing that I ever wanted, Is only you.</p>
<p>It’s only a matter of time, I know soon I will find.<br />
That feeling so close to devine, Someone I can call mine.<br />
But silence is pounding in my head, Hit me through and through.<br />
What everything fails to forget, Is always you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>==WARNING: de volgende post heeft een baard tot aan de grond, maar blijft geniaal==</p>
<p>O.k., wij mannen leggen het nog een keer uit:</p>
<p>Wees een grote meid en weet nu maar eens hoe de toiletbril werkt.<br />
Als ie omhoog staat, doe je hem gewoon naar beneden.<br />
Voor ons moet ie omhoog, voor jullie naar beneden.<br />
Wij hebben evenveel recht van spreken &#8220;dat de bril weer verkeerd stond&#8221;.<br />
Laten we er over ophouden.</p>
<p>De verjaardag, trouwdag en moederdag moeten niet telkens een eindeloze<br />
speurtocht naar dat ene, perfecte cadeautje zijn.</p>
<p>Soms denken we gewoon niet aan jullie.<br />
Leer er maar mee omgaan.</p>
<p>Voetbal en welke sport dan ook is leuker dan welke soap dan ook.</p>
<p>Haar afknippen?<br />
Doe het niet.<br />
Nooit.<br />
Lang haar is altijd mooier dan kort.<br />
Mannen zijn bang voor het huwelijk, onder meer omdat getrouwde vrouwen<br />
onmiddellijk hun haar afknippen en je dan een leven lang aan dat<br />
rattenkoppie vastzit.</p>
<p>Winkelen is GEEN plezierig tijdverdrijf en daar blijven we bij.</p>
<p>Huilen is en blijft te allen tijde chantage.</p>
<p>Zeg wat je wilt.<br />
Hierover kunnen we duidelijk zijn: terloopse aanwijzingen werken niet,<br />
duidelijke aanwijzingen werken niet, zonneklare aanwijzigen werken niet&#8230;<br />
Zeg nou gewoon eens wat je wilt!</p>
<p>Stille hinten begrijpen we niet. Duidelijke al helemaal niet.</p>
<p>Een beetje vent heeft maximaal drie paar schoenen.<br />
Hoe komen jullie erbij dat je ook maar iets aan ons zult hebben om het<br />
best passende paar van de dertig bij die ene je-weet-wel-jurk te vinden?</p>
<p>Ja en nee zijn prima antwoorden op bijna iedere vraag.</p>
<p>Deel je problemen alleen met ons als je een oplossing zoekt.<br />
Zo zitten we in elkaar: we lossen problemen graag op.<br />
Voor medeleven heb je je vriendinnen.</p>
<p>Sex hoort er gewoon bij.<br />
Het is geen chantage of ruilmiddel.<br />
3 x per week is NORMAAL en niet te veel.</p>
<p>Wat we een half jaar geleden zeiden, telt niet mee in onze discussie<br />
van vandaag.<br />
Sterker nog, iedere uitspraak ouder dan een week is verlopen en van nul<br />
en generlei waarde.</p>
<p>Als jullie je niet kleden als de meisjes op de H&amp;M posters, verwacht<br />
van ons dan niet dat we op welke slijmbal van tv dan ook lijken.</p>
<p>Ja, je hebt hartstikke mooi opgeruimd en schoongemaakt.<br />
Deze uitspraak geldt voor de komende 20 jaar.<br />
Vraag er niet meer naar.<br />
We zien het toch niet.</p>
<p>Ga niet zeuren over lijnen als je niet kan ophouden met eten.</p>
<p>Als je je dik voelt, dan ben je dat waarschijnlijk ook.<br />
Vraag ons niet naar onze mening daarover.<br />
Voortaan weigeren we ieder antwoord op een dergelijke vraag.</p>
<p>Als een opmerking voor tweeÃƒÂ«rlei uitleg vatbaar is en de ene uitleg<br />
maakt je boos of verdrietig, dan bedoelden we dus die andere<br />
mogelijkheid.</p>
<p>Laat ons lonken.<br />
Gluren doen we, of jullie willen of niet: het is een aangeboren<br />
mannentrekje.</p>
<p>Vraag een man om iets voor je te doen, of vertel hem hoe je iets<br />
gedaan wilt hebben.<br />
Maar weet nou eens dat die twee dingen niet samen gaan.<br />
Als je het toch al beter weet, doe het dan zelf.</p>
<p>Christopher Columbus had geen aanwijzingen nodig, wij ook niet.</p>
<p>Alle mannen zien maximaal zestien kleuren.<br />
Probeer maar even met je Windows scherminstellingen hoe dat er uitziet.<br />
Perzik is voor ons gewoon fruit, we hebben geen flauw benul wat &#8216;mauve&#8217;is,<br />
levend wit is een zwaan en van Kobaltblauw kunnen we ons geen enkele<br />
voorstelling maken.</p>
<p>Als ie jeukt, wordt er gekrabt. Da&#8217;s de aard van het beestje.</p>
<p>We kunnen geen gedachtenlezen en dat zegt niets over of we wel van je<br />
houden.</p>
<p>Als mannen vragen of er iets is en je geeft aan dat er niets aan de<br />
hand is, dan heeft de ervaring geleerd dat je liegt, maar dat laten<br />
we graag zo omdat we niet van geouwehoer houden.</p>
<p>Als je een man vraagt of er iets is, en hij zegt nee, dan is er<br />
niets aan de hand.<br />
Accepteer dat nou eens.</p>
<p>Stel je een vraag waarop je het antwoord niet wilt weten, reken dan<br />
op een antwoord dat je niet had willen horen.</p>
<p>Als we ergens naar toe gaan, is wat je me nu laat zien altijd prima<br />
geschikt om te dragen.<br />
Echt waar.</p>
<p>Vraag niet waar we aan denken als je niet tegen gesprekken kan over<br />
de Betuwelijn, de problematiek van het navelpluisje, de geest van<br />
Pim en hoe je aan de loop van een meisje kan zien of ze nog maagd is.</p>
<p>Je hebt wel iets om aan te trekken.</p>
<p>Het is noch in jouw, noch in ons belang om samen de Vivatest te<br />
doen, ongeacht waar die over gaat.</p>
<p>Als jij een vraag stelt en we reageren niet, betekent dat niet Ja .<br />
Pin ons er ook niet op vast.<br />
We luisterden gewoon niet.</p>
<p>Ja, we zijn altijd dol op bier, zoals jullie op handtassen.</p>
<p>Vrouwen maken minder ongelukken in het verkeer dan mannen.<br />
Gefeliciteerd.<br />
Vertrouwen we jullie nu achter het stuur?<br />
Nee.<br />
Leg je er maar bij neer.</p>
<p>Ik ben in vorm. Dat buikje hoort bij die vorm.</p>
<p>begrepen???!!!<br />
De groeten van de mannen!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[De taakstraffen staan onder druk. Toch denk ik dat arbeid wel een middel kan zijn om mensen te corrigeren in gedrag. Ik zou echter willen pleiten voor <b>prestatiestraffen</b>. Dit moeten ook straffen zijn die iemand <b>zelfstandig</b> kan uitvoeren. Word je gepakt dan moet je bijvoorbeeld elke dag om 9 uur je melden en wasknijpers maken tot 5 uur. Je straf is klaar als je een bepaald aantal stuks hebt gemaakt. Reken maar dat dat niet leuk is. De aard en omvang van de prestatiestraf kun je natuurlijk eindeloos mee variëren.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/91164408669260757-4385985972909429773?l=blog.heerink.nl' alt='' /></div>]]></content:encoded>
