If you find some articles or wordpress plugins useful that I wrote think about donating me some coins. This money will be used to pay the webserver bill.

No annoying flash anymore
I was reading this post and couldn’t read the text without loss of concentration all time. The fu**ing annoying flash animations on the left side disturbed me.
Now I’ve installed ClickToFlash (Leo, Tiger). It’s a WebKit plugin that prevents loading flash contents. Instead of it a static image is shown. To load it just click it.
If you wish to load flash contents automatically just right-click on a unloaded Flash box and add the site to your whitelist. If no right-click is available in older versions try this (type it in your shell) :
defaults write com.apple.Safari ClickToFlash.whitelist-array-add "slopjong.de"Happy flash free surfing!
Update: It wasn’t flash. These are gif animations 
Video conversion
This is a little howto (in fact it’s only a note for me 
) concerning conversion from one type into another using ffmpeg in the shell. You should have already installed ffmpeg 
ffmpeg -i original.mpg -f flv -b 400000 -ac 1 -r 23 -s 320x240 video.flv
- i: input file
- f: output format
- b: bit rate (video)
- ac: number of audio channels
- r: frame rate
- s: size (widthxheight)
Update: There’s a video tutorial about ffmpeg here
