Repairing and Crafting

FAQ

The FAQ

Where does the domain name siski comes from?

Actually this is a good question, and a long description would be necessary for a good explaination (For the non native speakers of german:siski isn't a german word at all). A short background is, that I don't like domain names containing parts of the first or last name in it. Additionally the domain name should be there for grouping different computers into a logical group of machines, therefore the domain name is only secondary and should be as compact as possible. The history of origions of siski will not be explained here. For fun: There is at least on domain with a similar name out there.

Is everything serios and real on your homepage?

Sarcastic or ironic articles are not marked and not distinguishable from others.

What is about the needed (german) impressum (imprint)?

The imprint is to be found on a separate page.
