Well, crap. “La circulation des trains entre Bettembourg et Thionville est perturbée suite à une panne technique de signalisation sur le réseau ferroviaire en France.” If I run, I can get the train to Koblenz.
Looks like the train to Nancy left two minutes late. Ah well. Never did Luxembourg – Trier, so I get to tick that off.
(This is why “on time” labels if a train is expected to be actually going on time are great rather than not saying anything which can be interpreted as “we don’t know yet”.)
(Also, have the train on the platform a little more than five minutes before departure.)
(Also, grumble.)

Maybe I can go from Saarbrücken to Strasbourg? Oh, there is a direct train!
It leaves two minutes before the train from Trier arrives.
Go figure.

Going from Trier to Saarbrücken, you want to sit on the right side with a view of the river Saar. But the train was too busy for that. Turns out things get really interesting on the left side once you get closer to Saarbrücken – all the old steel mills and assorted industry and attached railway infrastructure make for a lot to see.

The stop train takes one and a half times the time of the express train. And no, it doesn’t have a long stop along the way. It just stops a lot. These diesel things really are terrible at accelerating.

Quick reminder that if you run more than one train per hour, it is cheaper to just electrify the line already than toy with ingenious alternatives.

Oh, dang, they got more Slow Horses. I guess I can't cancel Apple TV just yet.

@mariosiniscalchi va benissimo, col piccolo dettaglio che non dai una scadenza per decretare il fallimento della soluzione militare, ma anche rimandando la vittoria ad un domani che non arriva mai, non si vede su quali basi ritieni impossibile cacciare Israele dai territori che ha invaso, visto che in questo caso basta bloccare i soldi dall'UE e le armi dagli USA.

L'Italia ha bisogno di infermieri. Ma spende 35 milioni l'anno per i "preti in corsia": pagati con lo stipendio da infermiere, circolano tra i ricoverati come fossero personale sanitario.
Non potrebbero essere pagati dai fedeli ed entrare in orario di visita prendendo appuntamento con chi chiede un incontro?
E lo Stato impiegare le risorse pubbliche solo per supporto psicologico, non religioso.

I've just found this about trades in middle age which is somehow amusing.
You know about Dante and you probably also know he fell in love with Beatrice Portinari (whose father was a banker).
That girl got married to Simone De' Bardi who was a member of one of the richest family in Florence. They ran a trade company with branches all over Europe, in Africa and Asia too.
We're here around 1300 (not sure the exact week 😁) but that company was probably founded some time before. This also adds to the idea that trades were quite developed in the middle age too.
