or rather they have an English page available but it's not like the service status is in English

The Scandi languages refer to public transport as "traffic" so the "traffic information" page on dsb.dk would be what you'd be needing to translate for service messages

I think (from translating, their site is only in Danish) they said that the line was only part-suspended, with trains short-turning a few stations short and not running all the way to where you were

They said it was getting back to normal by 13:00 (so an hour ago from this reply), so.

Guess the gag can be made as to whether TikTok's the right sponsor for that

Not for the controversy, and not for its content (it did start as a performing-to-music type thing)

but whether they expect a TikTok generation to sit through a long show without the ability to swipe down every 5 seconds 😅

Although the added curiosity that it's now the TikTok *Entertainment Centre*, restoring a name lost a decade after the closure of the original 80s-era "Ent Cent", in the area now redeveloped as Darling Square

I'm actually not too bothered by *that* development, as much as it'll take time to adjust

Capital is far from the only one doing it; what's left of Grant also was trying a narrowcast recreation of the old 3GL around Geelong

My feeling though is these are still far more "Forever Classic" than the 80s/90s stuff they've had to move the likes of GN/XL-FM further toward, in recent years 🫠

on the other hand, as someone who'll always find the old-school Jukebox Saturday Night type mixes better than the more modern equivalent "Party Mixes"... it's kinda sad to realise the times have gone so fast. The initial sounds of Elvis, The Beatles, etc, are now sixty years old and counting.

Fuck.

Bugger. The S-trains are apparently cancelled on that line (for now) due to a track points fault, their site says? Rough to lose out on that 10 minute frequency though

I mean, *you* try carrying one of those 3-metre buggers on your back

In a different world, I'd probably have a Squarial on the back my head or something 🤔

I dunno, full armoured or rubber or leather gear just looks wrong with skin-exposed sheath*; change my mind 😮‍💨

* expressed as such as I can deal sometimes with it when it's covered in the target material itself, but often it still doesn't look right to me...

I'm sure you would get what I mean by finger-quoting all that within about two guesses. No, the floor isn't open for that lol.

And just as much in A/V prod as anything coding

I know the scenarios I imagine are just fucking *weird* and unrelatable (according to the fear in my head) but I can't be the only one who makes their own non... for want of a less horrible euphemism, "non-traditional" ""porn"" 🫠

partly why office work sometimes helps, but an erzatz pied-à-terre type stay for half the week often does help, because of the after-work opportunity

at least, one I don't have to drag my backpack for. Can't leave my bag in the office when it locks me out at 7pm these days. 😅

and if one's offended, this isn't the right place for you.

go pull your kid (if any) away from your phone and they'll likely say worse. They *do* say more than just "6-7" despite the stereotype.

I mean, just talk to them in general. in person. phones off. it'll do you a world of hecking good.

Not to mention that at that young age, forget FOMO being a worry - it's the fear of being labelled a backwards [insert 2020s schoolyard insult here] for being the only kids without a full-featured smartphone.

Parents have never won THAT game, either. They likely don't even try to play anymore 🙃
