I just saw a trash car in Amsterdam with the seat in the opposite side like in UK. Now I am puzzled about how that car ended up here. I mean, it must be really uncomfortable to drive with everything on the opposite side.
After looking into it, the adaptation is loyal to the original version. The one to blame for this is Bram Stoker :P
I am reading a comic adaptation of Dracula and Dr. van Helsing, from Amsterdam, speaks German instead of Dutch 😢
Beautiful adaptation of the classical from Bram Stoker. The only complaint I have is that van Helsing spoke German instead of Dutch. bookwyrm.social/user/threkk/...

I realised that due to poor connection, pictures of yesterday’s concert were missing. So here they are, a few :)
Not only I am handicapped working at home, I don't have anywhere to connect the Steam Machine :<
I don't know how buy my monitor has died: no matter what, it doesn't turn on :( It wasn't even have two years old. Now is up to Coolblue to figure out what is wrong with it... if I can find a box big enough to send it.
A FREAKING LITTLE PLANE HAD A FLAT TIRE AND IT IS BLOCKING THE DEPARTURE LANE.
So far I had the train cancelled due to construction, multiple buses with multiple delays, and now a delayed flight. I just want to go home 😭
2 people already asked me for directions. So this is how my wife feels in Japan…

NodeConf is over. Now I just need to figure out how to get to the airport tomorrow without the monorail running and a strike.
booking.com just cut compute costs on their biggest Node.js service by 38%. No new hardware. No code changes in the service. All of it from the platform layer. And the heart of it is @platformatic Watt. 🧵

Leaving earlier to arrive in time means simply wait longer at the bus stop.
One thing is what the bus stop says, and another thing is when the bus wishes to come.
Based on a group of drunk Italians I passed by, wolfs don’t howl to the moon but cats meow. Now I need someone to fact check this.
My wife says my dog is waiting for me. Every time someone passes by the corridor he check if is me 😭
The reservation system of this place consist on a guy with a notebook at the door shouting names.
Also, I’ve got the feeling that I’m the only one who paid for the bus.
