Now I want some ice cream shaped like Bezos or Musk or Zuckerberg. I just want to lick their face.

Week ago I listened to a podcast about history of misinformation and censorship in first republic Czechoslovakia.

And tldr of it is that we didn’t learn anything - they wanted to regulate sale of newspapers and everyone listened radio.

I think there is big parallel the discussion about censorship was same, and when it was implemented it wasn’t effective. Be it Russian propaganda or some other affairs.

It is more sterile and intentional proces. But yeah at the end you end up with petri dish or tube with little dots that make beer/wine/kombucha or something else.

More like really niche “sub-hobby” of homebrewing.

Growing/propagating your own yeasts. I did it about year ago and didn’t have a time to get in to it again.

Nice asses.

My friend used to ride some race with horses (around 250km) and wild west style wagon. She said it was brutal - vibrations, taking care of horses…

BTW I can’t see your posts and comments just in few community’s, don’t know what’s wrong.

Sorry for not writing sooner my instance is on and off for few days now and federation with world is meh (don’t know on what side).

Czech Republic/Slovakia

Routing/maps

• how the signs for hikers and cyclists looks like - https://kct.cz/system-turistickeho-znaceni
• we have pretty large OSM community so any OSM client (except OrganicMaps) is good option but there are few developed here. Like https://www.locusmap.app ; osmapp.org ; freemap.sk
• non Foss options - mapy.cz and https://www.cykloserver.cz/cykloatlas

Camping/bivouacing

Camping outside is generally allowed with right etiquette (leave no trace, don’t make fire where and when it is not allowed, be out of sight …). I would suggest to bivouac only, if it is possible. But still there are few nono’s:

• National parks and other protected areas. It may be possible with designated camping spots but every park has different rules so check it out before you go there.
• Military training areas- you can ride through them on designated roads but you can’t stay there. Even the recently opened to public (military didn’t needed it) have only opened roads and few places - the demining operations will take some time.

Resupply, pubs, restaurants

• in vilages shops are closed on Sundays and on Saturdays they are usually open till 11
• In restaurants they have few different types of food offerings - lunch menu (pre-made meals offered from 11:00 to 14:00) you can get it in few minutes, “minutka” (pre-made and cooled/freezed meals) it will usually take less than 30 minutes to get it and other meals they may take up to 1 hour to make.

Trains

There isn’t usually any problem with bringing bike there, for some trains you have to book it in advance.

• if you can’t buy the ticket at the station, you can buy it in train. It is possible to pay by card but have some money at hand (the terminals are old and sometimes unreliable)
• you can check connections here: https://t.idos.idnes.cz/vlakyautobusymhdvse/spojeni/

Yeah they have also registered page404.cz

I love the low tech cycling subculture at yt - bikepackers, mechanics, tinkerers…

Like Path less pedaled and BikeFarmer.

They show how the bikes should be simple, mechanical machines that are bombproof and easy to repair not some high tech racing monsters.

Competitive timed shitting league in China?

Yeah I think that the pinning is not needed. I will post something and we will see what happens.

Maybe start thread where everyone who wants can share region specific tips and pin it there too. As it is done in [email protected]

I don’t have bolt but basic Sigma computer and it is possible so I would think that it is possible with more features rich device.

If it is bikepacking tour look in to bikepacking sublemmy [email protected]

I don’t speak French but I am fluent enough in Memespeak that I understand this joke.

I just looked at how much the coating costs (100 - 500$) in my location. Some can restore it with stickers… but it adds to the cost. I have access to few old Favorit frames (old ČSSR bike maker), you are lucky to get 100$ for bike in perfect condition.

So go for it, I wanted to make some beater bike (for commuting) and I consider using it.

One of the first few brews on the system I was helping to get started (and teach about brewing new guy) ended with boil off of about 1/4 of the volume. We then discovered that it had lower settings - 2000 wats was too much.

I never got to all in one brew systems, I had to try to deal with one and successfully made some beer.

Main issue for me was the inconsistent results but it may be my hands.

For boil off there are usually power settings so sometimes the larger loss is caused by forgetting to re-select the lower one.

In Czech news it says 4 dead and 27 hospitalized. Some are released already.

In the morning news it was little bit fuzzy but now these numbers are confirmed by police.

I think that basic internet etiquette is enough. I had to deal only with that (someone wasn’t very nice when someone asked regular question) once. Other thing that is good to moderate is off topic posts - it is nothing personal just to give the community “the feel”.

For interaction with others I think that it doesn’t need to be in every thread or answering every comment. Just as regular user would interact-I really don’t understand power users.

From some more articles I grasped that it is shady. Some lobbying groups, secret commissions and stuff like that. They try really hard to not be the ones to point fingers at.
