The beautiful train station of #Binche in June 2004: photo taken on the occasion of a railfan event, organised by the Belgian rail enthusiasts association #PFT #TSP, to say farewell to #SNCB #NMBS Classes 22 and 25. This is the day’s charter train with two Class 22 electrics leading.

What could be a scene on a rural #SNCB #NMBS Belgian railway line of the 1980s, is actually a picture taken on the occasion of a railfan event in August 2005: railcar 4403 crosses a bridge of the Chemin de Fer du Bocq museum line, operated by the #PFT #TSP enthusiasts group.

'Martin Sellner sei der „einzig legitime Grund für einen Abschiebeknast“, hieß es auf einer Gegendemo, die sich spontan vor den Räumlichkeiten des Lokals versammelt hatte. Der Rechtsextremist solle sich zurück nach Österreich „verpissen“. Anwohner, darunter auch unmittelbare Nachbarn des Lokals, sowie Passanten solidarisierten sich mit dem spontanen Protest gegen das rechte Treffen.' https://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/ort-wurde-bis-zuletzt-geheimgehalten-rechtsextremist-martin-sellner-halt-lesung-in-berlin-wilmersdorf-13289212.html /via #tsp #checkpoint

Comparing a naive "nearest neighbor" #TravellingSalesmanProblem solver with a #2optSwap one, adding a #DelaunayTriangulation mesh, it shows how often the better solution falls into the triangulation!

The #py5 sketch is interactive, you can generate other random nodes and move them around dragging with the mouse.

Hmm when do #FedWorkers need to increase their #TSP contributions for tax year 2025 to take full advantage of the new increased TSP contribution limit?

In #Berlin gibt es 14000-17000 #Stadttauben. Der Bestand ist in den letzten 14 Jahren nicht wesentlich gewachsen. Auf den #Stadtnatur-Führungen ist die Frage nach dem Umgang mit der #Taube oft präsent. Der #TSP-Artikel fasst gut zusammen & gibt Antworten: https://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/guter-vogel-schlechter-vogel-berlins-ewiges-problem-mit-den-stadttauben-11149996.html

He was riding his #foldie #bike when the frame broke. He's alright. Happened at a small interior road, not on a major busy street. And he had his helmet on.

Some blamed the allegedly poorly done welding. I blame the rather thin alloy and our poorly paved roads that cause lots of stress to #bikes & #cyclists.

there is a now acronym for what was form promoted as #GOP
call them now:
#TSP The Santos Party

Sunday morning #bike ride

I rode out while it was still dark and headed for city hall. It was lively, with some #cyclists coming together with their bike groups and wearing their group jerseys.

There was a large banner and, as expected, everyone wanted their #photo taken. I don't think those guys even know each other, but the way they handed each other their phones and graciously took photos for each other... Aaaww
