A #Munich il y a 7 lignes de S-Bahn, c'est comme le RER à Paris. Pour traverser la ville d'Est en Ouest, toutes les lignes empruntent le même tronçon (2 voies, une dans chaque sens), et passent sous un tunnel entre Ostbahnhof et Hauptbahnhof (la gare principale). Le tronçon commun (Stammstrecke) qui fait 11km va même au-delà de Hauptbahnhof, jusqu'à Pasing à l'ouest. Ce matin un S-Bahn a déraillé à Isartor, sur le tronçon commun donc. Plus aucun S-Bahn ne peut passer.
Depuis plusieurs années ils ont démarré des travaux pour construire un deuxième Stammstrecke, incluant un deuxième tunnel sous la ville qui passera au nord du premier. C'est devenu un gouffre financier. La mise en service était Initialement prévue en 2028 et le coût était de 3.2 milliards d'Euros, C'est maintenant repoussé à 2035 et devrait coûter 7 milliards !
My job has made me travel to a lot of places all over the world. This is why I care about vaccinations. They are IMHO the biggest thing ever for humanity. We can and have eradicated diseases that way. And though not all vaccinations give sterile immunity, they at least greatly reduce the risks of severe consequences. So for me it was never a discussion. #GetVaccinated Yes, every vaccination has a minimal risk of effects that could impact my health too. But compared to what they protect for ...
@jwildeboer status update: got a booster at a GP in Austria, just had to fill some forms and pay 35€ given I'm not a resident - worth every cent. Sorted and with plenty of time for it to be effective for FOSDEM!
Je suis allée me promener au Englischer Garten cet après midi, avec l'espoir d'avoir de jolis paysages d'automne, bah c'est pas encore ça. Il y a au moins 2-3 semaines de décalage avec l'année dernière, je suis même pas sûre que les arbres vont vraiment jaunir/rougir
Je vous ai déjà dit que jusqu'en 1992, l'aéroport international de #Munich
était situé là où se trouve actuellement le Riemer Park et quartier de Messestadt (avec le centre des expositions) J'ai essayé de reproduire sur une vue satellite de Google Maps, la vue que j'ai trouvée sur Wikipédia et qui date de 1988. Je suis pas tout à faire sûre de l'angle, mais le cadrage est à peu près le même
A gauche c'est Google Maps, à droite c'est la vue aérienne de 1988
I am so looking forward to this temperature drop from 27°C to 9°C in #Munich over the next few days but I am still shocked by the lack of rain. This is not normal.
Anyone know how to open/remove this bike lock without the keys? Someone put a second lock on our bike and now we can’t use it since Monday. Asking around, nobody knows who’s bike it is and now we’re looking for alternative options
The best time at #Oktoberfest#Munich must have been around 1897, when you could drink Märzenbier and Wiener Kaiserbock from Anton Dreher's brewery in Kleinschwechat near Vienna.
Yes, literally #viennalager served at Oktoberfest!
On a side note, Bavarikon noting the license of all digitalized objects in their database and even making it a filterable field is great, putting a Creative Commons license on objects (or even marking them as public domain!) is even better, but not providing a documented way to download them in an orderly fashion is incredibly crappy.
Sometimes City Life has its advantages. Woke up 2 times with pain in my ear. Decided to go to the doctor. On a Sunday. In #Munich. During #Oktoberfest. Well. 12 minutes on the bicycle to the clinic. 20 minutes waiting time. Another 15 minutes on the bicycle to the pharmacy. Now back home with a diagnosis and medicine. Otitis externa plus otitis media. 8€ for the medicine (because sunday), 0€ for the doctors visit. And no, I don’t have private health insurance. Just the regular public one (DAK)
@kotrcka the Spaten Oktoberfestbier I tried was just incredibly bland... not even bad, it just tasted of nothing, whereas the others higher up on the list had some more interesting flavours. Augustiner is just my favourite hands down, incredibly drinkable, while Hofbräuhaus and Löwenbräu both were quite dry and bitter for the style with some pretty good hop aroma.
Next week I'll be at Oktoberfest and will have Spaten Festbier on draught, so that may change my so far poor perception of the beer.
@akrennmair@kotrcka Was able to get (only) the Hofbräu and Paulaner here in NZ. The Paulaner has less malt and a bit more herbal bitterness, but not as full. The Hofbräu tastes a bit on the sweet side but I do like it more than the Paulaner. A local brewer down in Wellington, @southstarbrew made a Festbier that I think is better than these two.
So... does anyone know anything about access to the new #covid#vaccines in #Munich/Germany? Is #STIKO sticking to the (awful) old guidance?
Because if so, as far as I can tell, travelling to Austria and paying out of pocket is my best chance of getting an updated shot as an under-40 with conditions that many countries (but, of course, not this one) consider risk factors.
I never thought I'd say it, but I truly miss Ontario's handling of COVID.
