I have a somewhat similar setup on the application layer (rootless podman, quadlet), but it's NixOS, and there still is SSH ;)

There a similar one, but it's the Swiss public transport system: https://tramli.ch/


i had to look it up: Vienna too https://straba.at/


I love that they are also imitating the real sign desing just like OP.


yes, there are.


So, not very safe.

Road bike tail lights have had IMU controlled brake light functionality for years. Even fairly cheap ones from Aliexpress. Example: https://youtu.be/iH-dYDkd_U0?t=123


I regularly ride both bikes and motorbikes and this never has been a problem, even though the lever that is the rear brake on the bike is the front brake on the motorcycle.


> even though the lever that is the rear brake on the bike is the front brake on the motorcycle

Then your bicycles brakes have been put back on the wrong sides (is home maintenance by a previous owner to blame?).

The front brake should _always_ be on the right. Just like a motorbike.

EDIT: Correction. It appears US and UK bicycles have their brakes on opposite sides. How bizarre!


In the UK, British standard cycle brakes also have the front brake on the right. I think bike brakes being swapped is only a continental Europe thing.


Maybe it coincides with the road driving side - apparently Australia, NZ and Japan also have front brake right, while the US does not.


No. In continental Europe, the front brake is always on the left. Might be different in the UK and US.



What you can always do to get ALL your raw data out of Garmin connect (as FIT files) is using the data export (https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=W1TvTPW8JZ6LfJSfK512Q8).

There are some good OSS libraries to read and interpret those files (e.g. Python https://github.com/polyvertex/fitdecode, Go https://github.com/tormoder/fit).

To get your _current_ data, it is possible to pull the current .FIT files from your device (watch, bike computer, ..) when it is plugged to your computer and mounted as file system.

I once started a side project to do exactly that, but abandoned it after a while (https://github.com/jo-m/garmin-disconnect).


um, have you tried to export all your raw data from garmin? i have 15 years of logged data, and that dump does not include any fit/gpx/tcx files. it was 196 json files (228mb) which are just high-level summaries. using one of the hacky third-party export libraries, i was able to get the actual fit files (5708 files, 373mb). even that has missing files, empty files, and duplicates. very frustrating.

the lesson i learned is you can't just expect these exports from any online services to be complete or what you expect. i highly recommend going through an export of anything you depend on and see if it has what you expect.


This is particularly relevant with the recent blue triangle of death episode where all their newest watches downloaded a corrupted gps ephemeris data file and entered a boot loop.

One of the recommended fixes was a factory reset of the watch, which deletes all of the stored .fit files.


Maybe it is because I am in Europe, but the data export I recently did (2024-10) contained all my FIT files, although in another layer of zip:

    DI_CONNECT/DI-Connect-Uploaded-Files/UploadedFiles_0-_Part\*.zip
    DI_CONNECT/DI-Connect-Fitness/my@email_PrimaryTrainingBackup_Part1.zip


Should it be possible to request all the data via GDPR and friends?
