En route to #Geneva to attend a #PhD jury at the Geneva #observatory, which is located near the French border outside Geneva.
Instead of renting a #car, as I used to do in the past, this time I’m renting… a bike to go from the station to my #hotel (about 16km away) and the diary to the observatory.
@ascentale@kimu#BikeNite A4. Trek Rally Wavecel (which was what the LBS carries). Very comfortable and the air flow is great, great ratings! The only problem is the chin strap won't stay adjusted correctly, I have to tighten it before every ride. #helmet
A spacecraft and spacesuit 2-in-1 concept with furry micro-macro-shenanigans. Furries sharing a spacesuit with micros is something I want to explore more in the future. Seems like such a funny concept, I wonder why it hasn’t been done before? Or is it I just haven’t seen it be done?
The suit is loosely based on something called the “Command/Control Pressure Suit”.
It's a funny looking thing and might not be great for if I ever go climbing hills on my sportier bike - but I've not done that for a long time now. I'll keep the old one for that distant eventuality 😅
In case anyone wants to know, it's a medium Specialized Tone, heavily reduced at the moment, scores five stars in the Virginia Tech tests, has MIPS.
Archaeologists unearth ancient Greek helmet and inscription in Elea-Velia
Archaeologists excavating the Acropolis of Elea-Velia in Magna Graecia have unearthed an ancient Greek helmet and inscriptions. This find has been described as the third of its kind at the location, reaffirming the historical and cultural importance of the area...
Unfortunately, there is no playback method humanity has yet achieved loud and powerful enough to enjoy the music of Helmet in its purest state. I've been testing and researching this quandary for 30 years. I do hope humans someday achieve that level of technology
This is another weird one. Much like the Bubble Nebula, Thor's Helmet nebula formed around a highly energetic Wolf Rayet star but has more interesting patterns swirling out from it. My scope doesn't have quite enough reach to do it justice, but by cropping in, drizzling, and using tools like BlurXterminator, I can manage a decent image.
En plus, je n’avais jamais entendu leur reprise de “Army of me” de Björk, et donc pas encore eu l’occasion de percuter que c’était en fait un titre de hardcore depuis le début 🤘🤩 https://youtu.be/ZtqHwOBBnME?feature=shared

I made this during work experience from school many moons ago.
I placed at a company that made carbon fibre parts for racing cars.
They were located at the Silverstone circuit, and in addition to getting free tickets to the practice sessions of that years F1 race, I also made this wind tunnel test helmet from carbon fibre and got to take it home, for free.
The base is 5x3.5 inches.
And to think, some people placed at office jobs...
Did some grocery shopping with the #Brompton on the way back from the server room. Took my Brompton inside as usual. But I wasn't the only one who took a bike inside. A young girl was pushing a #unicycle through the small supermarket. And a lot of people were wearing their #bicycle#helmet inside. Counted at least four persons. Outside were at least a dozen bikes, though.
So remember: Always take your bicycle helmet inside when doing errands to show that you're shopping with a bicycle. #quaxing
When I tell people I go to a #SkatePunk#barbershop I’m not kidding. Today’s exchange in the chair:
“Wow, haven’t heard this song in a long time.”
“Yeah, you come here and you’ll get a lot of #music you haven’t heard in a long time.”
“Why do you think I keep coming back?”
