Quite cool to see how everyone in the crowd self-organizes. I got my bike back, but unfortunately some of my sons stuff is gone. Feel free to share the photos of this guy far and wide. Note he’s probably wearing a whig.

Yesterday, I caught a bicycle thief redhanded. It was stolen right before I got back from the beach. I followed him on a borrowed kids bike and confronted him. Too bad the police took half an hour to arrive, during which he managed to escape. #denhaag #thehague #scheveningen #stolen #bike

The far-right majority in the Dutch parliament (BBB-FvD-JA21-PVV-SGP-VVD) has just designated “Antifa” a terrorist organization. This is a dark day for Dutch democracy and the final nail in the coffin of the VVD as a serious liberal democratic party.

Europe imported 9.3M barrels/day of crude in 2024—leaving it exposed to volatile global markets. Shifting to domestic renewables, electrification, and efficiency can cut imports and stabilise prices.

Try *holding* the reset button. I recently got the same error and was stumped for hours. Turned out the board missed a connection which made the reset button behavior reversed. Those messages get printed so fast they only require the time while the button is pressed.

All too common unfortunately. Lots of these gadgets are destined for the trash as people are going to think they’re broken and won’t charge as they get rid of their USB A chargers. All because they forgot to add two €0.001 resistors 😒

Dear aliexpress sellers. Please make a USB C receptacle - USB C plug adapter that tricks a charger into thinking it’s connected to a 5V 500mA device which only charges with a crappy USB A - USB C cable.

On a long timescale, materials have an effect on each other. In this case, my assumption is that the (polystyrene?) window made the rubber from the elastic bands brittle. It could also have been UV, but they have been mostly stored in the dark.
