~€13 customs clearing costs on a ~€30 order from the #uk . That's 33% extra cost! This is the last time I am buying from there. This is money wasted on paperwork that could've been in our pockets, and my future purchases could've been in yours as well. Thank your #brexit voting ol' chaps for that. Infuriating and unnecessary.
Long live the European single market 🇪🇺

While this data is very useful for calibrating traffic models, the potential for misuse and the amount of data these cars collect is off the charts. Remember this story the next time one of your friends says they don't want to travel by train because they don't want to get traceable tickets.
Also: there is no installing piholes, adblockers, or privacy aiding plug-ins on the locked down operating systems on cars. So little you can do as a consumer to combat this, except demanding #legislation
Bus stopped at platform? Somehow doubt it 😁 Alaaf, Salaai, Helau 🎊✨
@Stinson_108@mastodon.social @techwerkers@mastodon.nl I actually have indeed reconfigured the client and now I am getting a reach cross country!
@tenzochris@mastodon.social oops sorry, fair enough! 😁
@tenzochris@mastodon.social and with him all the animals when the cars start coming an hour early. To be honest, with LED lighting we should really get rid of daylight savings.
And another casualty due to the illegal border controls on the Dutch/German A1 #shengen border. I grew up in the border region of a free #europe, but I struggle to recognise it more and more the longer this "temporary" symbolic situation continues.
Are we going backwards? Complicated. On Dutch independence day above all things...
What do you do when you run short of bicycle parking capacity but you've got empty car parks out back? That's right, you convert the surface parking to bicycle parking. 🚲 Even though the parking looks largely empty now (full during kings night) it already carried more humans than the maximum car parking capacity #bicycle #activeMobility

I spent the entire morning working out why my new #windows11 corpo laptop wouldn't connect to my usb peripherals all at once. Worked fine separately but wouldn't work all together. A bit difficult if you need a webcam, a keyboard and a mouse to be able to use it.
In the end it turned out to be an obscure PCI lane "power saving" setting in the power schedule editor which would randomly disable PCI lanes. Dear #microslop , if you want to save power, get on reducing #AI power and water waste.
`'if we demand perfect, flawless ideological congruence **we will lose.**' If you'd only take one lesson this should be it. Other than that I would recommend reading the rest of this article.
@joepbc@mastodon.social Lego bloemen zijn mijn goto. Ze verwelken niet, en als je er klaar mee bent kan je met de blokjes er weer andere dingen mee bouwen ;)
