@pekkatahkola This looks absolutely magical, like something straight out of a winter fairy tale. totally brings me back to growing up in Canada in this kind of deep‑freeze glow.
I love it, but I can’t stop thinking that biking on what looks like a frozen sugar glaze has to be way more dangerous than these calm photos suggest 😲
@pekkatahkola @inVinnieVeritas By the snow you can drive without any problems. "like frozen sugar glaze" - it’s like this. 😁 -
It is rather beautiful here in Oulu 🇫🇮, right now. Absolutely no filters needed at all 🤌
-20°C, wind chill -28°C.This is one of our main cycling and walking routes (#8) and here we have a 5 km stretch with ZERO at-grade crossings with motor traffic. I repeat, it's physically impossible to meet any motor traffic here. So it is very peaceful, safe and comfortable to ride and walk completely uninterrupted. Just bliss.
It looks magical!

@pekkatahkola Tried to navigate that frozen glaze on my bike last time it snowed here in Brussels going back home from work.
Slipped and fell 3 times before walking next to the bike 😅 Took this picture to remember what caused all those falls.
From memory nobody biked on the other side of the Atlantic back in the 80s to early/mid 90s.
@pekkatahkola @inVinnieVeritas How I understand you! 😂 -

@inVinnieVeritas Doesn't look like anyone has ever heard of maintenance there 🙄

@tg9541 Wondering that too. Poor fella might have been damaged and or stolen, and abandoned, and/or maybe set aside by the snow plow driver. Still seems mostly bicycle-shaped though. No idea 🤷
@pekkatahkola I've been to Oulu; stayed there for a night, worked on the airport tarmac on a September day. I no longer remember why it was so important to be there, but I liked the town, and memories of some places are still vivid after 20 years.

This morning I cycled a bit on streets that were frozen over - slippery enough that getting on the bike was a challenge. Riding was relatively safe, thanks to studded tires.

@sheislaurence Haha, that seems to happen surprisingly often 😅 You're at least the second person in the last five years to say that 🤭

@pekkatahkola Can I come live there? It looks and sounds very close to wonderful.

@pekkatahkola The temps here are not much different. But we've got those huge trucks. And way too much ice, not the good kind, the kind with guns and nazîs. I want out of here.

@retech Yeah. Ice needs to be and stay out.

@pekkatahkola Is Oulu the City of the crying-man-choire?

@pekkatahkola not having to wear a helmet to protect yourself from inconsiderate car driver related eventualities frees up your head for a floofy hat too,,,,

@CIMB4 Exactly. Or whatever you want to wear 🤗

@Zimtfisch I don't know about the crying ones, but screaming ones yes: https://www.huutajat.org/en/
Although I don't think "screaming" is a perfect translation either, but that's what they seem to go with themselves so whatever 😅

Another cold and rainy day. Love it.
Crossing fingers for more.

My desk seems to form a 'purple' corner. Something that happens to every one in four Toy Nerds. It's okay.

@opentechfan @libreoffice so this will allow us to write in Markdown everywhere in the suite? Not just import / export?

I really do like using LibreOffice. And yes, I did make a donation!😉

Buon appetito! 😊

Parliamo di targhe auto e dello stato merda.
Il nostro meraviglioso governo ha deciso che, dato che sono un poveraccio e ho la macchina vecchia, devo necessariamente ripristinare la targa ammalorata che altrimenti agli sbirri fanno male gli occhietti belli.
Morale: 80€ di spesa extra non preventivata per riverniciare un cazzo di pezzo di metallo.
Aggiungiamo pure il fatto che non si capisce se sia legale o meno (si, pure nelle officine autorizzate) la legge non è chiara.
Pertanto il mio obiettivo è ovviamente quello di fare un bel fai da te, solo che mi serve sapere procedura e strumenti adatti.
Qualcuno ha esperienze? Consigli? Suggerimenti?
