As much as I'd welcome an under 16 social media ban, the undercurrent is nefarious. There's too much to give up in light of it. Social media platforms are ok with it, they get our childrens data in plenty other ways.

'Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die', or 'Don't Look Up' but a lecture about a different topic. Rockwell and the rest did their best I guess.

#EdTravCyc Pedestrian/Cycling access completely restricted from 9th til (presumably) 19th April at the Clermiston Rd North/Queensferry Rd junction. Unable to use crossing for now to access Davidson Mains park. (Have witnessed folks running across the Qferry Rd here) @edi.bike

Having learned tonight that USB 3.0+ interferes with 2.4Ghz wifi, I'm now wondering wtf the world is playing at with USB 3.0+ PC peripherals. Madness.

I do love it when Airbnb hosts leave some nice bedtime reading for the kids

Chris @chrixoffer.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

I'll admit as much as I lean pro-tram on the Roseburn Path thing, it was bloody useful tonight for cycling to Haymarket from the west. #stormamy

Do we know who approved this? Local FB groups suggested it was Tesco? It's been needed for years, just needs lights now.

Great wee Scottish folklore podcast I've been enjoying listening to with the kids over the summer (during the many day trips). www.patreon.com/TheScottishF...

The irony that they champion saving the Roseburn Path then proceed to rip out the connection between there and Silverknowes/Cramond. Absolute con artists.

Damn. A new Alien series released and here's me sitting in silence. I will go ham if this messes with my precious... again.

Chris @chrixoffer.bsky.social · 15/08/2025

Flashbacks and Fort Knox level plot armour are two massive bugbears of mine. Otherwise enjoyable but I'll ultimately judge on the quality of the series.

Enjoy Dave. I really want to go back to ArcTanGent again this year, last year a blast. First festival in forever.

Thanks for the update. Not a great alternative but needs must for some.

Not completely familiar with egress from the path to Chapelhill. Does this have stairs? Is it cargo bike/heavy e-bike friendly?

For anyone concerned, this is a hit-piece on bikes. There are some fair arguments about green spaces but a 2m wide old railway line should be considered a backbone of cycling infra. #libdemsdontgiveashitaboutactivetravel #savetheroseburnpath www.heraldscotland.com/news/2519052...

The much-loved cycle route that could derail plans for Edinburgh new tram route

Trouble has been brewing around Edinburgh’s next tramline since a new north-south plan was announced

Cycle lanes need to be red. Car drivers are a simple breed, they get very nervous driving on red surfaces.

Been car free for around 2 weeks whilst it undergoes a gearbox replacement and it's been an absolute breeze with our 'second car'. Shopping, nursery runs, visits to the city centre and beyond, cinema trips. Not all cyclists wear lycra and most shouldn't need to. #cargobike #carfree

We're not all like that 😔

Aye patchy memories myself. It had sweet shops, chippies, Croc, Lion and Echo Rocks. Never change!

Went last year for the first time since the early 90s, glorious weather, and felt like it hadn't changed that much.

Do you think it's right for a council school to be actively involved in something politically driven by a particular party? Personally I don't, whatever your or my opinion is of this subject matter.

It's not always ideal over there, compromises have been made but ultimately bikes have their place. The ease of which you can safely cycle through the Dutch capital to reach various shops on quiet, relatively car-free streets is so alien. And it really shouldn't be in this country.

Some of the cycling/2 wheeled superhighways between Leiden, Wassenaar and The Hague. Go anywhere on a bike or moped, feel safe. Another world

Chris @chrixoffer.bsky.social · 10/05/2025

Just back from a week in The Netherlands and god the UK is depressing. Noisy, irrational rage fuelled, entitled car muppets.

Wassenaar town centre, scheduled modal filters

Wassenaar town centre, very quiet without car traffic

Wassenaar, floating parking spaces, lovely bedded in cycling infra

Same. I think I'll be watching it again today. Been a few years.

Speed Racer would also be one of my picks.

He eats up every scene, as does everyone tbf. Joan Cusack as the secretary is a goddamned delight.
