  At #tcrno12 I am mostly following Bryn Thomas ( #tcrcap319 ) who is still in #Norway after 1133 km. Big cheers to her!

  I am testing the free #Proton #VPN to check if a paid subscription may be a good idea. Its application now says for the third time in a row that I am connected to a server which I selected to be in the #Netherlands while several websites such as WhatIsMyIPAddress locate my IP address in #Switzerland ,and others list everything in Swiss Francs, not in #Euro ,which means they locate me in Switzerland as well. Is this a common issue with Proton? Can such a service be trusted?

  #tcrno12 : While Robin Gemperle rushed all night to win the race in 10 days and 9 hours - which definitely is an outstanding performance - Bryn Thomas ( #tcrcap319 ) rested the last 10 hours on Orust island in #Sweden . Must be a beautiful place.

  Most commentators on #Trump 's Saudi nuclear deal overlook a very important point: #SaudiArabia is already under #Pakistan ’s #nuclear umbrella and does not necessarily need its own uranium enrichment facilities to build the atomic bomb. This would be a bonus in the face of the Iranian threat, but not at just any political cost. #USA #Iran #Israel https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/07/31/world/trumps-saudi-nuclear/

  RE: https://kolektiva.social/@forse/116815554683972275 I guess a statement by @mullvadnet@mastodon.online is now urgently needed. Could some native #Swedish speaker please translate the article about the co-owner of #mullvad #vpn ? Please!

  Flatlands - Day 13: Lille -> Péruwelz (55 km) After a day off in #Lille ,we headed back to #Belgium ,this time to #Wallonia .Unfortunately, when planning our route,I hadn’t realized that it rans for several kilometers along the cobblestone section of the famous “Paris-Roubaix” cycling race. Now I know why it’s also called “Hell of the North” ("l'enfer du Nord"). #BikeTooter #cycling #bikepacking #radtouren #fahrrad #cyclotourisme #vélo #bici #cycle #radfahren...

  Flatlands - Day 14: Péruwelz -> La Louvière (50 km) Mostly along the canal and mostly sunny. Just before the destination, there’s the famous and incredible #ship elevator. #BikeTooter #cycling #bikepacking #radtouren #fahrrad #cyclotourisme #vélo #bici #cycle #radfahren #radtour #bike #bicycle #Brompton #Wallonie #Belgique

  Flatlands - Day 15: La Louvière -> Charleroi (32 km) A short and lazy stage on a perfect cycle path, in full sun and a surprisingly beautiful landscape. #BikeTooter #cycling #bikepacking #radtouren #fahrrad #cyclotourisme #vélo #bici #cycle #radfahren #radtour #bike #bicycle #Brompton #Wallonie #Belgique #Charleroi

  Flatlands - Day 16: Charleroi -> Namur (49 km) The blazing #sun (in #Belgium !) didn’t bother us after many cold, rainy days. On the other hand, the #pollution of the #Sambre river, which we followed today, is alarming: a brown sludge with plenty of #plastic #waste floating on top. What are the #political authorities doing about it? #BikeTooter #cycling #bikepacking #radtouren #fahrrad #cyclotourisme #vélo #bici #cycle #radfahren #radtour #bike #bicycle #Brompton #Wallonie #Belgique

  Flatlands - Day 17: Namur -> Huy (34 km) After a day off in Namur we had today a short ride in the heat, with spectacular views, by just following the excellent cycle path along the #Meuse river. #BikeTooter #cycling #bikepacking #radtouren #fahrrad #cyclotourisme #vélo #bici #cycle #radfahren #radtour #bike #bicycle #Brompton #Wallonie #Belgique

  Flatlands - Day 1: Kaarst -> Duisburg (42 km). New cycling adventure: instead of the #Bavarian tour we had originally planned, we started today a tour through what are probably the flattest regions in #Europe . #BikeTooter #cycling #bikepacking #radtouren #fahrrad #cyclotourisme #vélo #bici #cycle #radfahren #radtour #bike #bicycle #Brompton #Kaarst #Duisburg

  LibreOffice now in conflict with Collabora, while OnlyOffice, which seems to be more Russian than Latvian, in legal conflict with Nextcloud and the new EuroOffice? Bad news for the entire FOSS world. Well, I guess I will just stick to CryptPad and Markdown. #FOSS #LibreOffice #Collabora #onlyoffice #nextcloud #EuroOffice #Cryptpad #markdown https://cryptpad.fr/
