I read some github issue how instances would store the full size images when creating the thumbnails, which kinda goes again the wish of lemm.ee to not upload images to the instance (and this would somehow be an issue for some third party apps like jerboa, i am not tech savvy enough to really understand).

So i wonder why some thumbnails are apparently created and some are not.

Yeah, when i saw that flamboyant hoopoe i was immediately thinking of you all, haha.

I also really enjoy the birds i know in different setting, like the beach blackbird or hearing the mountain wood pigeon (no ‘d’) coo.

I don’t know if there will be much route overlap, but yeah, at least some general spain cycling stuff i guess. There’s a ferry to bilbao from the uk, right? At least to santander i think. Such a great option to get there.

Haha, yeah i guess:

But in the night i had to wear leggings, socks and long sleeve to be comfortable. Wind is quite cold. Sun is a tad bit stronger than what came through the clouds in germany though.

Well i am not 100% sure where i am going in the long run. The plan was southern spain, visit a friend, then to the montanas vacias, to the pyrenees. But it might be a bit too early for pyrenees. That’s the only route i have prepared though, then a bit massif central and alps towards home.

I am thinking that i might also take a ferry from barcelona to sardinia or something, if i get fed up with spain for some reason. From there through italy, ferry to greece then head back north. I’ll see, i hope pyrenees will be fine.

Anyway, i have a good bit of cycling for now, bit of a mix of badlands, altravesur (bikepacking.com) and other routes to my friends.

The liner is made of ‘egyptian cotton’ (never heard of that before), which is very light too, lighter than regular cotton. Very happy to have gone with this one.

I take the book just because i have started it already, it was a present.

I have no helmet, but i might need to buy one in spain if the police catches me, they are mandatory outside of cities. Thought i’d give it a try without :)

Haha, yeah i love it too. It took a while until other birds than blue tits started using it, i think they were a bit confused by the diagonal sticks. But they came around in the end and it’s awesome to see them hopping around on it.

I also have made another feeder, also for small birds although there are some goofy bigger birds who acrobatic enough to get some snacks:

Bit more of a readymade though.

Right? Makes me strangely sentimental watching this.

Oh wow, thank you, i did not know that song.

I think it’s a good thing that people can set up their communities however they wish as long as they don’t go against server rules.

I think people are more up in arms here (germany) about the necessary space to be taken away from cars than about money. No way around it though, since pretty much all urban space is occupied by cars.

I would really like my city to drastically reduce street parking, i think it is really the way to push cars out of the city. Most of my neighbours would sooo hate it though, since it’s ‘not enough space’ for parking as is, even though the streets are completely littered with cars.

Btw, I am replying from my second account, somehow this whole post does not seem to have federated with lemmy.world. (it did federate now)
