Good morning. I could’ve slept longer but Tom came up to say that there would be a croissant ready for me in five minutes and if I wasn’t downstairs he would eat it. That proved very effective.
It’s quite cool this morning. My bare feet are cold, I’ll have to go up and put some socks on. We’ve got rain forecast every day here until 11th September, autumn has definitely come early. Bring it on, I say, it’s my favourite season.
There’s not a lot I have to do today, which gives me plenty of time to crack on with Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil by VE Schwab which I am loving #AmReading #Bookstodon

Gestern im Berufsverkehr: Massives Verkehrschaos rund um die Autobahnauffahrt in #Berlin-#Treptow. Vor allem für BVG-Busse überhaupt kein Durchkommen mehr, über 30 min. Fahrzeitverlängerung rund um die Elsenstraße. Menschen zu Fuß und auf dem Rad schlängeln sich, auch bei Grün, irgendwie durch die sich gegenseitig blockierenden Autos und LKW... Hey, SenMVKU, was ist jetzt der Plan?
Wer Straßen baut, erntet Verkehr.

Denselben Mist wollense in der Schweiz ja auch grad abziehen.
Ab- und Auffahrten schon jetzt am Limit. Aber paar Spuren mehr auf der Autobahn werdens richten!
So eine absurde Kackscheisee!
Sorry. Regt mich auf.
Nicht nur dich!
In der Schweiz kann das Volk allerdings mindestens noch "Nein" sagen.
@mina
Schön wärs ja, wenn ein Nein helfen würde. 😐
Es gibt einen Volksentscheid von letztem November gegen einen Bundesbeschluss, bestimmte Engpässe des Autobahnnetzes auszubauen.
admin.ch/ausbau-nationalstrass…
Die Message war wie immer implizit, aber eigentlich klar: Keine Autobahnausbauten mehr.
Der zuständige Bundesrat will aber eine andere Message gehört haben. Er beschleunigt jetzt den Ausbau *anderer* Stellen des Autobahnnetzes, weil gegen die ja "niemand etwas hat".
Ich meine auch sowas gelesen zu haben, dass SVP und FDP noch mal einzeln über jedes Ausbauprojekt abstimmen wollen.
@mina
Ja? Ich bin nicht wirklich auf dem Laufenden.
Das wäre, hm ... das könnte ich mir sogar vorstellen, wenn es um das Ausbremsen von ÖV-Projekten geht.
Ich hab da vor ein paar Monaten was bei (Ähem) Watson gelesen.
Ich müsste noch mal suchen, wenn du wirklich Details brauchst.
Wie soll da im Bedarfsfall ein Rettungsfahrzeug durchkommen?
Oder wird dann einfach jemand in orangener Weste als Sündenbock auf die Straße geklebt?

The image shows a collection of items arranged on a wooden surface. At the top, there are nine transparent zip-lock bags with colored tops, each containing multiple tubes labeled "GEL 40" from the brand "MHS." The bags are organized in three rows, with the top row having orange, green, and blue tops, the middle row having blue and orange tops, and the bottom row having a single bag with a blue top. Below these bags, there are six packets of "näak ULTRA ENERGY" in yellow, red, and green packaging, arranged in two rows of three. At the bottom, there are eight small zip-lock bags with handwritten labels, containing white powder, likely caffeine or a similar substance, with labels such as "Cola," "Cafe," and "Kaffe." The overall arrangement suggests a prepared kit, possibly for endurance activities or travel.

Pentagon ends Microsoft's use of China-based support staff for DoD cloud
: 'It blows my mind,' says SecDefBrandon Vigliarolo (The Register)
It's not too late to follow @logistics! You'll watch a movie of a package moving from Sweden to China. You'll see every 3,000th frame of the movie - roughly 2 minutes apart - one per hour. Thus, you'll go through one day of the journey every 30 days of real time.
It's not exciting, and that's the point. In a world of click-bait that promises to shock and outrage, this is a welcome change. It's like looking out the window and seeing the sky.
It's soothing. We're in the North Sea now, it's cloudy, the sun is going down, and it's getting a bit rainy.

I'll go to the Petanque club at lunchtime and hope the forecast rain is late arriving. We are running out of milk and I need cash for the cat- sitter, so I'll call into the coop.

Yesterday I won a ThinkPad T560 on E-Bay for 90 quid, and it is going to arrive today at 14:00! Yippee.
So that will be that for the afternoon. This morning I am pressing with development of #mycelium bootstrap stage 1, hoping to have a working system in a fortnight. To be fair it is a bit of grunge right now, but I am excited for what it might turn into.

Second: Here in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, the heat & humidity have finally broken and we have lovely weather that seems normal for this time of year. I am reading "What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker" by Damon Young. This memoir is filled with LOL passages about his angst living in the US as a black child and man. Every move and decision is fraught with danger and absurdity. I am loving this book.

I got up early and beat the breakfast queues to a mediocre coffee and sausage roll.
This afternoon I shall meander between stages as there's nobody I'm too familiar with. This afternoon, Moin, Throwing Muses and Viagra Boys.
I'm somewhat dreading the weather - forecast is heavy rain all afternoon. So my musical choices may be constrained by "is it in a tent? Can I fit in the tent? Will it be so hot in the tent that I am better off in the rain?"
Forecast for tomorrow looks better.

I had a reaction to my monthly hormone suppression jab on Thursday, fatigue/pain/lethargy, was in bed most of yesterday, woke up to wave Dr F and Youngest off early this morning (they're off to Mykonos for a few days) and then went back to sleep.
Finally woke up about 1030.
Going to watch the F1 qualifying with my dad later and then scoff home made pizza. And then probably go to bed again!
