@rationalobsvr @ian_mcgreevy @pinguspostsgood @ASimpleDough You’re not from the UK are you? Or of you are you don’t go outside very often. This is how most public footpaths and bridleways look in the countryside.

@J__D_B @ToonPolls Doesn’t matter what the farmer wants though because it’s a public right of way

[Marius Reiter @giveswings]

@dougs_cars @YPLAC Most public footpaths and bridleways in the UK countryside go through private property, it’s only trespassing if you move off the path. The owner must not stop you from accessing the public right of way.

@els_jo @LucyPilot_ If the passengers have to stay at the diversion airport over night anyway, it doesn’t really matter where it is, they pick the one where they’ve got hotel capacities to accommodate them. I guess that’s why most of the Ryanair flights to Edinburgh were diverted to Cologne.

Imagine the outrage if a driver of a 2 ton vehicle would be caught doing this
Oh wait

Four cyclists have been fined after they were seen riding through a red light in Esher, Surrey. An unmarked police car was driving directly behind the cyclists and recorded the incident.

@KingPets @NoContextBrits Most Brits don’t realise that British standards aren’t as great as they think they are

@AKociok @brrrake @EngineMode11 @NorthHertsSam And depends on the day, trade days are definitely much more pleasant than public days.

@Brandon_Y_Lee A looks overexposed and has too much contrast. B gives a more natural impression of the time of the day. Also the white balance seems to be neutralised in A, where B recognises that the light is just more blue overall during that time of the day and doesn’t overcorrect.

@zuidwijk @SnazzyLabs But you’re the 1% outlier, that’s not “heavily split”

[Marius Reiter @giveswings]

@SnazzyLabs We’re not, practically everyone uses WhatsApp.

Also, I’ve got absolutely no idea where I am as busses here don’t have a display of what the next stop is (HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE THIS????) and the bus hasn’t been cleaned for a decade, so I can’t see anything out the window either.

Aachen was just for beginners, come to England and experience how low the bar can be. Takes me 4.5 hours today to get from Birmingham Airport to Brackley by public transport due to sparse schedules and delays, and according to Google, I should’ve just cycled.

[Marius Reiter @giveswings]

#Aachen: where the bus is so late it takes 40 min for 2 km but just walking would have been 28 min. This is ridiculous.

[Marius Reiter @giveswings]

Verdict: sparse schedules and delays don’t go together, as each delay adds another hour of travel time due to a missed connection. I’ve also wasted about 30 quid on tickets I didn’t end up using and that you need a degree in scam sciences for to figure out how to get a refund.

Who needs trees and hedges if you can have wooden fences that make you feel like you’re living in the middle of a construction site

Happy World Town Planning Day but specifically to the people who post on LinkedIn about how proud they are to work for companies that do this

@Bxibit @SoVeryBritish England weather is Aachen on steroids

[Marius Reiter @giveswings]

When you want to calibrate your monitor, but your only colorimeter is integrated in your laptop, so you have to fool your laptop into thinking the external monitor is its own and that its lid is closed. 🤣

[Marius Reiter @giveswings]

@AKociok Especially because it means you’re unavailable for Tarkov and Sea of Thieves for 3 weeks!

@autodrp @McLarenF1 A joke is usually funny, not just making some random statement and then saying it’s a joke.
