Mostly just normal gravel roads and forest paths. I have done some very light MTB trails (here in the flatter than flat Netherlands), and did some touring through the German Eifel (that was intense!) and the Belgian Ardennes. For me it'

Yeah, my roady friends are jealous because I get to use my gravelbike off-road, and my mountainbike friends are jealous at me for being able to keep up with roadies. And all that for the price of one bike and an extra set of wheels with sli

I know they have the capability to block scripts, but this is the first time I'm hearing that blocking all javascript on all websites is the primary purpose of both uBlock and uMatrix. Their strength is in selective and goal-oriented b

Yes, I miss the good old days when it was just me and the boys. Now even the cleaning lady in my Moroccan summer home has an effortless way to partake. Where is this world headed?! But seriously, what's the difference?

It's trivially easy to break into my house. No measures exist that I could realistically take to prevent it with 100% certainty. Any measures I stubbornly take anyway, are done out of spite, and to somewhat minimise the risk of my home

Same here, the concept is great, ease of use and results are great, but the plastic construction - at least for home and office use - not so much.

Almost boiling, up to the point where the kettle really starts to make noise and bubbles are forming. I just eyeball it honestly. You'll know when you poured the water too hot from the bitter taste :)

My Aeropress makes a very nice cup! Also uses an immersion technique, but produces a clean cup without coffee grounds and is slightly quicker. No inverted method but just doing as it said on the box, except I let it steep for a minute or so

Thanks! I came across that project in the past, bookmarked it, and then completely forgot it even existed. Trying it out tonight :)

Not on Android DigiD app version 5.18.1 (822), I just checked. The "koppelcode" can only be copied manually.

This is a joke, right? Although I wouldn't be surprised if the prolonged use of the DigID app (i.e. because it keeps crashing, or is offline for maintenance again) would have caused maniacal insanity. Edit: The app works most of the ti

How awesome would it be if we could exclude specific dirs or files from bind mounts. Think of cache directories, log files, and, of course, node_modules. The common workaround to this, is to create an empty volume and map whatever you don&#

Yeah the systems are far from perfect. They're inefficient, in some cases unfair, and with regards to abuse perhaps rely a little too much on good faith. Nevertheless the systems do exist. Financial aid was and even still is there for

That is exactly what was done here in the Netherlands. Booking.com just decided to exploit and, in my opinion, abuse that system. Edit: These emergency financial support measures I was referring to are: - "Temporary emergency scheme fo

A radical idea but please hear me out: A new Stargate series that is not a reboot, not a remake, not set in an alternate timeline, not set far in the past or future, but rather a continuation of the story we know!

Thanks for the insight, I really wasn't aware of the extent of their actions. The quote I posted is a bit cryptic by itself. What I meant by it was that perhaps the US had plans that would lead to greater benefits for them in the regio

Absolutely overkill to have a metal server at that cost to send emails. A cheap VPS (which always comes with its own IP) is fine in most cases. From experience I can confirm the reputation build-up requirement though. And all that reputatio

Yes and I'm certain they have extensively planned for the consequences before they went all overboard with it. It looks now that crypto wasn't taken into account to the extend that perhaps it should have been.

They are jokingly referred to here as "Trammelant", Dutch for "big trouble" fish in a barrel wordplay. Come to think of it, don't believe I've ever heard anyone use their proper name! A neighbour used to own on
