They really did close the worst Jumbo in the country. Tearing down the whole building feels excessive, but if it gets the job done …

problems: where should I go 27–31 July with my last remaining days? Trying to avoid any sports events (Olympic, football) and/or huge crowds.
Sound like ?

@kupfers My standard answer to spare Interrail days always is: UK.

@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@kupfers Admittedly, I have the Hoek to Harwich ferry which is perfect for an after work start and similarly priced to Eurostar.

The west coast of Jutland is pretty nice.

Norway and Sweden are kind of annoying with their mandatory reservations and probably super busy in July.

@kupfers Hm, going through countries in my head: Switzerland may be in option. You certainly get your money’s worth with Interrail. Jura or western Vallais are quite underrated in my book.

I will never get used to this half-pint thing they have going in this country.

NS is running woefully short trains at rush hour again, so I decided to pull my emergency stunt of typing “brewpub” into Google Maps and see what happens.

My main takeaway from the @rustnl conf as a test engineer who has just started their journey: these people really like their fuzz testing.

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@joeposaurus @rustnl It’s stupefyingly easy, too. Install cargo-fuzz, derive a trait on your stuff, run a few commands and you’re off to the races. Magic, really.

Delft, half eight in the morning. Someone chartered a boat and now there is a giant bicycle traffic jam because the only bridge over the Schie had to open.

Build more lanes!

(Thanks for the stoppage, though. Otherwise it would have been impossible to cross the cycle path.)

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

No no, I didn’t get lost while composing these posts. I totally knew that this path would dead-end at some canal.

@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@smveerman Just don’t be an unprepared pedestrian. Now I know I have to cross before the bridge.

@K1ngdaKa88 Das war mal völlig normal. Wieso gibt’s das eigentlich nur noch für ein paar Verstärker? Zu wenig Kapazität in Basel SBB oder zu wenig Fahrzeuge?

@wrzlbrnft @K1ngdaKa88 Aber die Güterzüge wollen doch nach Muttenz und das hat jetzt sein eigenes Gleispaar?

@jon I’m reasonably sure I bought a ticket Cuneo to Tende from the machine in Cuneo, like, two years ago.

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@jon I’ll have to look at the old Interrail logbooks at home for the concrete dates. My guess would be autumn 2022.

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@jon @wrzlbrnft I have no idea how international tickets work any more.

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@jon Checked now. The trip was in September 2022. I don’t have the actual ticket any more, but it cost 7.60 from Cuneo, so unless they increased prices since, I want to say it was to Tende, not to Olivetta.

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@jon Cuneo – Olivetta is 8.20 now, so it is possible that I bought that and there was a sixty cent price increase since. But then, Cuneo – Tende would have been an international ticket and might have been more expensive than a domestic one for the same distance.

Tomorrow is a extra day

5 borders
Cap d'Ail 🇫🇷 - Monte Carlo 🇲🇨 (last there June 2023)
Monte Carlo Country Club 🇫🇷 - Monte Carlo 🇲🇨 (also June 2023)
Ventimiglia 🇮🇹 - Menton Garavan 🇫🇷 (also June 2023)
Olivetta-S. Michele 🇮🇹 - Breil-sur-Roya 🇫🇷 (never been)
Limone 🇮🇹 - Vievola 🇫🇷 (last December 2001 and it was dark)

First problem: tickets

You can’t get a price for the Italian train on the French section 😡

Trenitalia app also showing no prices

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@jon Buy the Italian ticket from Airole to Limone? At 6.45, it’s even cheaper.

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@jon I suppose it counts as a domestic Italian ticket and those are just very cheap.

partim,
@partim@social.tchncs.de avatar

@jon @wrzlbrnft I can already tell you that you won’t be able to ask anyone anything in Tende.

There’s a French ticket machine there that sold tickets à composter back when I was there but there was no stamping machine. I’d be surprised if that thing sold tickets to Italy but admittedly, I didn’t check.
