Software-Piraterie in den 80er und 90er Jahren. Das erste Buch der CRACKERS-Reihe. Digitale Visionen und Copypartys, Intrigen und Industriespionage, Diskettenhändler und Piraten. Elitismus, Flucht und Verfolgung: Das geheimnisvolle Leben der Cracker und ihre Szene-Organisationen prägten das Computerzeitalter.

Von den USA nach Europa. Eine erzählerische Reise zurück in das letzte Jahrhundert, als Daten auf Disketten gespeichert wurden, Computerspiele zur Unterhaltung wurden und das Gesetz nicht auf das vorbereitet war, was dann geschah.

In einer Mischung aus mündlichen Erzählungen und Medienberichten wird die Spur einer der geheimsten Untergrund-IT-Gesellschaften freigelegt: Was unterscheidet einen Cracker von einem Hacker? Warum wurden sie als Bedrohung für die gesamte Spieleindustrie angesehen? Fesselnde Anekdoten, historische Darstellungen und hunderte von Bildern lassen diese spannende Software-Episode wieder lebendig werden.

Die Buchreihe deckt nicht nur die Machenschaften des Untergrunds auf, sondern wirft auch einen tiefen Blick auf die heutige Spieleindustrie, die Pressearbeit und die Grenzen und Möglichkeiten der verschiedenen nationalen Gesetze. Doch CRACKERS bleibt nicht dabei stehen. Die Autoren kalkulieren Produktionsbudgets, lassen Spielemacher zu Wort kommen und setzen sich für die Entwicklung von Cracker- und Demogruppen ein.

Special Features und Artikel zu: Hagbard Celine (Illuminatus!) // Hacker vs. Cracker // Radwar Party 2 & 3 // Was (Not Was) // Cracking the Industry // The Crackers Deal (Mimetic Entrepreneurs) // Cult of The Circle // Blue Boxing // GNU License // Hackers in the Movies // WD1772 (Atari Floppy Controller) // Bootsector Messages (Thalion) // Dragonflight (uncrackable protection?) // Manual Protection // Game Extensions (value enhancement).

CRACKERS: The Gold Rush führt den Leser einen entscheidenden Schritt tiefer in ein hochorganisiertes illegales europäisches Netzwerk, das wie ein Unternehmen agierte, das seiner Zeit voraus war. Schlüsselfiguren der Branche wie Rob Northen kommen hier zu Wort. Ehemalige Codebreaker auf Apple II, BBC Micro, Sinclair Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, C64, Amiga und vor allem Atari ST enthüllen die Wahrheit über eine einzigartige Computerjugend.

Love this cream
Style: Tolerance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream
I absolutely love the Avène Tolerance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream — it’s become a sanctuary for my sensitive skin. From the very first application, I noticed how calming and gentle it feels. The texture is rich yet lightweight, absorbing beautifully without any greasiness. This cream has been a game‑changer for days when my skin feels irritated, reactive, or overwhelmed. It instantly soothes redness and discomfort, and over time my skin feels stronger, more balanced, and resilient. What really stands out is how comfortable and nourished my skin feels all day long — no tightness, no irritation, just pure relief.

Great for Sensitive Skin
Style: Tolerance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream
I have very sensitive skin and have tried everything to try and prevent rosacea flairs. I recently came across this brand and I absolutely love this recover cream. I consider this now the holy Grail for Rosacea and sensitive skin. It makes my skin feel hydrated and non-reactive. It is soothing and I just cannot get enough of it. It is pricy but it is worth it to not have my face constantly feeling like its burning or irritated.

Great product for sensitive skin
Style: Tolerance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream
I have sensitive skin that is constantly getting irritated by moisturizers/seemingly simple skin care products. I read a few blogs/articles/reviews on different products others have tried for similar issues and this one came up, so I decided to give it a try. It’s nice and light and goes on smoothly. Skin feels moisturized and does not get irritated, so that’s a win! The only reason I took off 1 star is it leaves my skin a bit oily for my liking, but that could just be my skin.
