Walked to Hauptbahnhof. Gonna take the U-Bahn back.
Show threadJan Wildeboer 😷Oct 2, 2023
Advantage of U-Bahn in Munich: they ride every few minutes. So I don’t care about timetables.
Show threadJan Wildeboer 😷Oct 2, 2023
S-Bahn to Trudering runs on a 20 minute schedule. And no. I didn’t want to wait at Hackerbrücke among the Oktoberfest drunks.
Show threadJan Wildeboer 😷Oct 2, 2023
Arrived at Trudering. Bus 185 just arrived. Lucky me! Will be home soon and making a hot cocoa before heading to the sheets and sleeping in as tomorrow is a bank holiday. Thank you all for following along :)

The most boring part was printing all the pages. My printer JustWorks since many years. No paper jam, no weird bugs. And no ink! Believe me. A simple, robust b/w laser printer is still the best solution.

(It’s a Brother HL-L2340D, in case you wonder. Duplex, WLAN, no fancy features, cheap toner, no spyware drivers, dirt cheap and has never let me down)

@jwildeboer also no #Microdots?

@jwildeboer I've got one of the big Brothers that also can scan (something I admittedly no longer need, that's now easy enough to do with the phone). It jams about every other year or so and is by now on the first or second toner cartridge.
I don't understand people who but ink printers.

@jwildeboer I have a Brother colour laser that works fine with Ubuntu. I decided life was too short for messing with ink cartridges that keep drying up.

@jwildeboer Preach it, brother, preach it! HL-5340D for me … cheap, durable, boring, exactly how I like it. Specifically, NOT colour!

@jwildeboer woah, I lived in Munich 2016-2017 and this thread was a trip down the memory lane 😄

During the Oktoberfest, only.

Otherwise every ten or twenty minutes.

@jwildeboer the only way ever public transport should operate.

Hauptbahnhof is closed. They build a new one, at the moment.

Was that weird smile due to the last minute filing or to the complexity of the document? 😂

I like these adventure stories, füll of drama, wild drunks, money, dangerous transportation, and all with dramaticaly limited time.
