“0.5% of Dutch cyclists wear helmets, and that’s really just sport cyclists.

They’ve ultimately decided that it’s far more important to build this culture of everyday cycling, and to build safe streets, instead of requiring people to protect themselves.”

So many holes were drilled yesterday in this Hardox steel! I even broke a drill, but that was my own fault. And @sable welds everything skilfully together. Project is almost done! Few more welds, bit more grinding. 🤍🤎

As a neurodivergent person who programs best when my environment is free of distractions, I can appreciate why wizards lived in tall towers with no entrances.

dzisiejsza niedziela wieczór ma mieć nie najgorsze niebo nad #Krakow - lekko "boję się" mgły o 1. w nocy, ale o tej godzinę to już spać planuję 😉

tak więc, zapraszam dziś na #UlicznaAstronomia - gdzieś po 21:coś, jakoś do pierwszych nocnych, tradycyjnie nad Wisłę na bulwarze Czerwieńskim, prawie na alei Gwiazd, idąc od Smoka Wawelskiego w stronę mostu Grunwaldzkiego, dokładnie mniej więcej tu: openstreetmap.org/#map=19/50.0

Hejka, dzisiaj, w niedzielę 27 sierpnia dwa warte uwagi wydarzenia.
O godz. 15:30 na Rynku Głównym, pod kościołem Wojciecha (Sławnikowica) odbędzie się antyklerykalne wydarzenie „Przystanek apostazja” zapowiedziane przez inicjatywę Dość milczenia.
O 18:00 pod Muzeum Narodowym (koło Błoń) zacznie się protest przeciw zapowiedzianemu tam na godzinę 19:00 występowi liderów konfederacji.
Bądźmy tam razem!

@threedaymonk @GBU_28 A guy from Norway went to Germany to buy a sports car, were speeding through Denmark on his way back, and lost the car. It made news here.

He was driving 236 km/h in a Lamborghini valued at ~€300k. I had a good laugh when I read that story. Well deserved.

currently trapped inside due to the 907th severe weather alert of the year, so I decided to draw a comic about it

Jebany alert RCB. Teraz. Ciekaw jestem, ile osób pobudzili. Albo oderwali od miłej zabawy. No i "Kto to jest ta RCB, i dlaczego do ciebie pisze? Przyznaj się!"

Life, uh… finds a way?

Idk, this corn stalk is just randomly growing out of the crack next to a storm drain like it’s living its best life?

Hornet update: sorry, had to kill one. It was repeatedly trying to fly into me, and if it got tangled in my clothes or hair that would be the end of me.

Still hoping to touch base with someone that has knowledge or experience with small #septic systems and leach fields.

The immediate question is depth of the trenches. Our nonprofit has community members coming today and tomorrow to dig by hand while soil still moist from Hilary.

I’m leaning towards 18-24” & 40’ of leach pipe. Bad idea? infiltratorwater.com/blog/five

"It's the little things that count." - Transistors. They're called transistors.

Our 10yr old has gotten ***REALLY*** into mechanical watches & clocks to the point he's on the verge of starting a side gig repairing them. He mentions his hobby to everyone, and a lot of folks have a not-quite-working item sitting around. He's fixed a number of them.

He has had a tough time with an civil war era pocket watch, but was finally able to salvage a compatible part from somewhere, and he got it ticking today. He was so proud, and wants to share with everyone.

So looks like I'll be building my Fediverse presence from scratch now that I've lost my followers after moving instances (my fault entirely).

If you happen to see this, please boost so my old friends can see where I am!
