It has been reported before, but perhaps there now is more reliable information that direct day trains between Prague and Copenhagen really will happen. Only from May 2026, though, not from the timetable change in December.

Muistutus: Runsas vuorokausi aikaa jäljellä Interrailin 20% alennuskampanjassa. https://www.interrail.eu/en

Esimerkiksi 60 vuotta täyttäneelle 10 matkustuspäivää kahden kuukauden sisällä 1. luokassa 408€. Ei paha. (Suosittelen yleensä 1. luokkaa.)

(Tällä alennuksella ostettua lippua saa alkaa käyttää aikaisintaan syyskuussa, ja pitää alkaa käyttää viimeistään 11 kuukautta oston jälkeen. Jos pystyy lomailemaan vain kesällä, niin ensi vuoden kesäkuun alussa pitää aloittaa nyt ostetun lipun käyttö.)

I wonder when the American Christofascists will start deporting Native Americans from the US. I mean, the US has even entered into several hundred international agreements with various American Indian nations over the years, so clearly declaring that American Indians are not really US citizens is just logical, right?

Tuli mieleen että varmaan monikaan ei tiedä tai enää muista että vuonna 1969 tehtiin live-action Muumi-tv-sarja jossa muumit irrottivat päänsä (tai ”nenänsä”, sanoivat), ja sisältä paljastui ihmisen pää. Tempun teki ensimmäisenä Muumipeikko, tietysti Pikku-Myyn kehotuksesta. Ruotsin television tuottama sarja jossa suomenruotsalaisia tunnettuja näyttelijöitä. Tätä varmaan ei perheen pienemmille kannata näyttää. https://youtu.be/zx8k83wciK8

Or that is what another passenger told us, it might of course be that she was wrong and the bus would have left from the stop in front of the station.

Bye then, Matera. We left early in the morning and were supposed to take a replacement bus just to Altamura. But somehow we managed to take a bus that went all the way to Bari. Which was nice, or maybe not. Trains are nicer. The bus took a slow route through the clogged Altamura centre and we wondered why so many are joining just for a short trip to Altamura station. But then the bus didn’t go to the station but continued to Bari. Oh well. We have plenty of time before our train to Rome departs.

Sanan "gauge" (rautatiekontekstissa) suomennoksessa pitää olla tarkkana. Suoraa vastinetta ei ole.

Jostain syystä minulta usein lipsahtaa "raideväli" vaikka oikea termi on "raideleveys". Mikä on ihan loogista, kyseessä on yhden raiteen eli kiskoparin leveys, mitattuna kiskojen sisäreunojen välisenä etäisyytenä.

"Raideväli" taas olisi kahden raiteen väli, harvemmin käytetty. Vaikka onkin varmaan säädelty mikä pitää olla raiteiden väli riippuen niillä kulkevien junien maksiminopeuksista.

Silti on aika optimistinen luku. Voihan tuollaiseen kysymykseen vastata "joo" jos on edes kerran käynyt katsomassa, luomatta tiliä. Roni Rolle Laukkarinen (npub1zdf…6u9l) :n listalla suomalaisista Mastodon-käyttäjistä https://mementomori.social/suomalaiset-mastodon-kayttajat/ on alle 500 henkilöä. Oletettavasti enimmäkseen itseään aktiivisiksi käyttäjiksi kokevia. Jos tällä listalla on edes prosentti kaikista suomalaisista Mastodon-käyttäjistä, niitä olisi silti vain vajaa prosentti kansasta.

Tuo 5% kansasta -väite lienee erittäin optimistinen Stetson-menetelmän tulos. Jos pyöristetään "kansa" viiteen miljoonaan, niin Mastodonissa (nojoo, "Fediversumissa", mutta Mastodoniahan sillä käytänössä tarkoitetaan) pitäisi siis olla 250 tuhatta suomalaista. Juu en ihan usko. Ja 20% kasvu joka kuukausi on sekin vähän epäuskottava. Ehkä jonain tiettynä kuukautena oli, muttei sitä voi ekstrapoloida. Anteeksi.

Hienoa. Nyt sinun pitää vaan päättää oletko KDE- vai Gnome-leirissä. Ja kun olet päättynyt, muista että vastapuolen edustajat ovat inhottavia ja rasittavia vääräuskoisia.

Vai päätettiinkö puolestasi, oliko vain toinen vaihtoehto tarjolla, eikö siitä edes mainittu?

If you want the (Linux) ls command to never fucking ever use colours, is this really the simplest way?

export LS_COLORS='bd=0:ca=0:cd=0:di=0:do=0:ex=0:pi=0:fi=0:ln=0:mh=0:no=0:or=0:ow=0:sg=0:su=0:so=0:st=0:tw=0:'

I would have hoped there would be some intuitive thing like LS_COLORS=never.

Read what it says again. It's the literal opposite to what you describe. "The trains will be run on Montreal time", i.e. one standard time for the whole railway, all the way to Toronto. Railway staff used only that time. It was the travelling public that had to convert from the published times (in Montreal time) to local times.

Mitään erityistä uskonnollista tematiikkaa ei kuitenkaan hotellissa tuntunut olevan. Mikä on ihan hyvä. Tämä on Trasteveren biletysalueella, mutta hiljaisella sivukadulla. Nyt on nälkä. Pitäisköhän syödä pinsa ihan tässä lähimmässä paikassa, ja sitten mennä drinksuille?

Thursday: Leave Stockholm 07:24, reach Hamburg 19:00, night train to Basel 21:52 (from Hamburg-Altona).

Friday: Arrive in Basel 08:10, continue to Lugano 09:03, change there and in Milano, reach Torino 15:10.
