Call for help: If you are (or know) someone near Hamburg, Germany, with a recently calibrated signal generator and oscilloscope and willing to do me a favour, please contact my by mail. I would love to perform a "full calibration" on a HP 54502A scope I have bought on ebay. Thankyou.

Public interest

• If you are just curious how this Thiemo thing looks like, take a look at this scary picture.
• You might happen to look at this page seeking for the FreeBSD CDs I'm involved with. You will find them at Lehmanns Fachbuchhandlung or at their LOB, the Lehmanns Online Buchhandlung.
• It is also possible that you are searching for an explanation of a strange sender mail address like list+i9eam901jlgcebzx@thiemo.net. It is explained here.
• Maybe still interesting is the FreeBSD cellphone. I don't sell those, but given an airbrush and some time and work, you can make one on your own, and even be proud of it. Here's a photo of mine, which is now used by someone else.
• In my (so-called) free time, I work on some projects, some for my own personal pleasure only, some to be released to the public now or at least when they're ready. Unfortunately, I seem to have too many ideas I like, so I just cannot get them all done as fast or as good as I wanted to... If you want to tease me a bit and kick me towards working some more on one of them (or are actually interested in them), peek() into the new projects pages.
  The pinball project is the most time-consuming one at the moment - almost all free time is consumed by soldering, programming, and generally fiddling with this stuff.

Personal

• During my (too rare) vacations, I like to go hiking in northern Sweden. A few photos of my last trip and my travel diary are available on the web.
• Nearly every tuesday, you might find me at the Nomaden, a gathering of mostly (but not exclusively) computer people at a different pub every week.
• I am a member of the Hamburger Unterwelten e.V., a group of people exploring and documenting (mostly urban) underground installations, for example bunkers or subway leftovers. The name literally translates to "Hamburg Underworlds", whatever sense that makes in English.
• I also like taking photos of things. Usually, things are mostly butterflies and smaller things brought to attention by delicate technical equipment. I am very proud of a 5:1 magnifying lens, and the ring flash absolutely needed with that one.
• The webcam which used to be linked from here is gone now.
