  • When I was 13 I wrapped a fire cracker in tape apart from the end with the fuse (I thought it would be louder that way). It exploded in my hand as I lit it.

    My hand was fine because of the tape but the full force of the blast came out the untaped end and shot fragments of paper and black powder right into my face and eyes.

    Ended up having to get rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. They basically removed several layers of skin from my face and scraped the debris from my eyeballs. After surgery I couldn’t see further than like 10cm from my face and the doctors told me either it would be permanent or I’d be able to see again in a week or so. Luckily it was the latter.

    I got extremely lucky and made a full recovery.


  • Doesn’t matter if you’re allowed to ride on the sidewalk, when doing so you need to make sure not to bother pedestrians. They shouldn’t have to be paying special attention to cyclists. You have to make sure you’re paying attention and not getting in their way, not the other way around. If that means riding at walking speed, or pushing your bike, then that’s what you have to do (or ride on the road). Remember, pedestrians are vulnerable road users too.



  • In my honest opinion it’s not worth trying to get Jellyfin working if you plan to use an Apple TV as the client. The only client that is halfway decent for Apple TV is Swiftfin and it’s nowhere near as polished as Plex. The watched/unwatched indicators also don’t work currently (at least for me), which is a dealbreaker imo.

    I’m running Plex and Jellyfin side by side. The only thing I’d use Jellyfin for is remote streaming. It’s a shame, because I really want to switch to Jellyfin, but it’s just not working for me because Apple TV support is so bad.

    You clearly find it easy to stop doing things that are bad for you (drinking, drugs, eating meat), but you struggle to start doing things that are good for you (exercise, cooking, eating enough/well).

    She was right. I still don’t do the bad stuff and started doing the good stuff and now my life is so much better. Ironically it was quitting the last bad thing (weed) which allowed me to start taking care of myself. It’s not enough to not hurt yourself, you have to be good to yourself too.






  • You do realise there are other types of holiday than flying around the globe to lie by the pool in a country with cheap labour, right? I think I’ve taken like one return flight in the last 10 years (excluding work trips). My last holidays I’ve travelled to by train to other countries in Europe. My next holiday I’m travelling one way by train and one way by bike.



  • If you don’t want to use Strava, perhaps this could be for you? I haven’t tried it myself, but it sounds interesting: https://github.com/joaovitoriasilva/endurain

    As for cycling computers, I’ve only used Garmin (Edge 840) and Wahoo (ELMNT Bolt 2), neither of which I’d really consider “hackable”, but with Garmin at least it is possible to create custom apps and data fields and if you connect it to a computer via USB I think you should be able to access the .fit files, courses and other files via MTP (this may also be possible with Wahoo, not sure). I think it actually exposes the entire file system. You can definitely create custom map themes by editing XML files for example which is not a feature Garmin advertises.

    Otherwise I would say the difference between Wahoo and Garmin is that Wahoo is simpler and less customisable, but it still does everything important and is cheaper. It’s much easier to set up and get going. Garmin is very customisable (and more expensive), but there are way more settings and menus to navigate and you can spend ages setting it up just right. You also get more fitness tracking features for free out of the box through Garmin Connect (though it’s worth noting they recently pissed everyone off by adding optional subscription features recently). For me Garmin Connect made Strava completely redundant, since I don’t care about the social features. The data is still hosted on Garmin servers though.

    And of course there are other brands too that I haven’t tried. Perhaps check out DC Rainmaker on Youtube. He has reviewed lots of devices by all the main brands.
