bigblind @bigblind.me · 08/04/2026On HN, there's a discussion going on about the etiquette of bike bells, and the different cultural norms. Someone said this, and I couldn't agree more 000
bigblind @bigblind.me · 11/03/2026Glad to hear the folks at Serengeti Park in Germany have found a solution for the problem that was stopping Gozimba from opening. After even the ride's manufacturer threw in the towel. Excited to ride it some day either tis or next year. 000
bigblind @bigblind.me · 29/11/2025C'mon guys, millionaires wear suits! The agony of being a spymaster 020
bigblind @bigblind.me · 13/11/2025My mom and I went to Phantasialand last weekend to celebrate my mom's bday. Apart from the fact that they really are in need of a better policy for disabled guests, we had a fantastic time! 020
bigblind @bigblind.me · 15/10/2025I started reading the latest book in Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club series. So far, it’s everything ice cone to expect from his stories: cozy, witty, intriguing, and full of personality. 010

bigblind @bigblind.me · 22/06/2025Had a fantastic weekend in France, with a Disneyland Paris fans meet-up on Saturday, and a visit to Parc Astérix today 000
bigblind @bigblind.me · 16/06/2025I'm so web dev-brained that I got very confused for a few seconds at a food deliveryy company emailing me about hosting, until I opened up the actual email. 010
bigblind @bigblind.me · 29/05/2025Frontier Developments has really been "cooking" as the kids say these days, with the recent Planet Coaster 2 updates. New themes and features like on-ride photos are awesome. i just hope swing launches/spikes are high on their to-do list. 010
bigblind @bigblind.me · 17/05/2025About to finally see Caro after hearing so many positive reviews. 010
bigblind @bigblind.me · 13/05/2025I was invited to #Efteling’s Raveleijn office for research into accessibility of the park’s rides and fairytales. 020
bigblind @bigblind.me · 04/05/2025Props to the ride operators at Toutatis in Parc Asterix. They’re dispatching trains at an incredible pace. 020
bigblind @bigblind.me · 02/05/2025Had a lovely day at Walibi Belgium yesterday, exploring their new family coaster Mechalodon, and the surrounding area DockWorld. Highly recommend giving it a try. 100
bigblind @bigblind.me · 28/04/2025I think #Efteling should get translations like this looked over by a native English speaker, because sometimes, I think they lack a little nuance. In the case of the one below for instance, I'd say "By building on *at most* 11% of the entire park's area, [...] 020
bigblind @bigblind.me · 13/04/2025Had a fantastic day at Walibi Holland with @pretparkclub.bsky.social to try out YoY. Their new duelling single rail coasters. 030
bigblind @bigblind.me · 11/04/2025When my mind wanders, my brain always comes up with the stupidest wordplay ideas. Like how there should be a movie franchise about a hero who helps out when steam locomotives break down 020
bigblind @bigblind.me · 06/04/2025Been watching videos of people's first experiences on YoY, the new ride(s) at Walibi HOlland. Definitely looking forward to riding it next week. 010
bigblind @bigblind.me · 30/03/2025So thankful for my family. They came over yesterday to help with things around my place. My sister @elisiana-liana.bsky.social reworked the curtains she made for my previous place so they can be reused here, and my dad assembled my bed and coat rack, among other things. Also, this is on my wall now. 020
bigblind @bigblind.me · 19/03/2025Someone took the time to reply to my 13-year old YouTube comment. Very curious, I open the notification... 000
bigblind @bigblind.me · 18/02/2025So... I stayed up way too late and made a thing... frederikcreemers.be/hearts/ 120
bigblind @bigblind.me · 10/02/2025Leuk fragment uit @kleineboodschap.com van vandaag: Hoeveel speakers zitten er in Fanse macabre in de Efteling? overcast.fm/+AALWpN-EkAI... 120
bigblind @bigblind.me · 10/02/2025Making a formfield read-only, and then not explaining why it's read-only and how to change the value should be a crime punishable by death. I'm just trying to give you money, microsoft, but I don't live in the effin' USA. 000
bigblind @bigblind.me · 06/02/20254 albums you think are perfect Like many people these days, I rarely listen to full albums anymore, but here are 4 albums I love and will regularly put on, often without shuffling or skipping any songs. 130
bigblind @bigblind.me · 21/01/2025The fact that LLM's struggle with the question "How many R's are there in Strawberry" is all over the internet, so I guess OpenAI hardcoded a response. Which triggered my trap card: 010
