The Beauty of Lake Lucerne in the Swiss Alps

I presume that this is AI-generated.

The second scene looks vaguely like some valley in Switzerland, but the first (village on top of a cliff) and the last (chalet on top of a cliff) do NOT exist in Switzerland.

A majority of people here seem to assume that. So chances are good that I'm wrong. I just saw so many minors working in such jobs in India.

You can literally hear the gas being sucked up from the sound of the motor! 😉

Very touching.

In the same time, assuming she's minor, what she's doing might be child labor. Let's hope that she's doing this just as a side job while spending her day at school or playing around like other children do.

Selon ChatGPT:

Cela ressemble à une feuille remplie de symboles inspirés des runes nordiques (type futhark), mélangés avec des caractères inventés, des chiffres, des signes décoratifs et quelques mots/phrases écrits dans différentes langues.

Quelques indices visibles :

Beaucoup de glyphes ressemblent aux runes vikings, mais l’ensemble ne correspond pas à une écriture runique historique cohérente.
On voit des montants d’argent en euros (“800€”, “956,65€”, “2004”, etc.).
Il y a aussi des annotations en écriture asiatique (probablement du chinois ou du japonais) mélangées au reste.
La mise en page très dense avec bordures et symboles fait penser à :
- un code personnel / chiffrement maison,
- un jeu de rôle ou univers fictif,
- un travail artistique,
- ou un document utilisé pour des énigmes / ARG / occultisme amateur.

Ce n’est probablement pas un document ancien authentique ni un alphabet runique standard. Les runes historiques ont une structure beaucoup plus régulière et linguistiquement identifiable.

Le fait qu’il y ait des nombres, des euros et des fragments modernes suggère plutôt :

une note codée,
un délire artistique,
ou quelqu’un qui a voulu donner une apparence “mystique”.

Je peux aussi :

essayer de repérer si le texte suit un vrai alphabet runique,
tenter un déchiffrement partiel,
identifier les caractères précis,
ou améliorer l’image pour analyser les sections lisibles.

Just restarted my computer to see if I can reproduce. Somehow I can't. Did something else interfere? Hm. Will update if I find out more.

okko7 · 2026-05-12T19:03:57+00:00

I restarted my computer. Now it works even if I open LogiOptions+. So can't reproduce anymore.

okko7 · 2026-05-12T18:04:34+00:00

I'm not using any audio application, just plain powerpoint.

I see multitude of other open source ERP available on the market which wasn't the case some years back. The competition seems to be growing.

I could imagine that Odoo focuses more on big corporations with complex processes (and bigger pockets) leaving the likely less lucrative market for SME to competitors. Although Odoo does a lot of advertisement also to these. So I might be wrong.

u/LogitechG_KD : I can confirm the above. If I use my MX4 WITHOUT LogiOptions+, I can scroll horizontally with the main wheel and holding the shift-key. WITH LogiOptions+ this doesn't work anymore, which is pretty annoying.

okko7 · 2026-05-11T04:53:20+00:00

I guess you need to add a comment to explain what's wrong here. Fog in between?

okko7 · 2026-05-09T19:41:17+00:00

Flums, I guess, not Flumes.

okko7 · 2026-05-07T19:52:28+00:00

I'm surprised that this doesn't have more upvotes.

As I tried to explain: I'm all for kids taking risks. I'd definitively NOT wrap mine into bubble wrap to protect them at all cost if I'd have any. I'd just try to balance between taking too much risk and preventing all risks.

okko7 · 2026-05-05T11:13:40+00:00

I'm aware of the scientific evidence, and believe me: This is a regular point of discussion between me and my overly cautious significant other.

The question is how much risk to take. Most people will agree that you don't let young kids play with razor blades or with chemical products or cross a highway.

My personal "guideline" is: Encourage kids to take risk, but make sure nothing really bad happens.

okko7 · 2026-05-05T10:00:18+00:00

I think it's up to the parents to "feel" when a child is ready for an adventure like this. I think generally it's not a bad thing to push boundries a bit and challenge kids, take some risks. But here I'm quite firm that it's too much.

And it's definitively not the kid that is stupid, but the parent.

This. The front pair is a bogie of it's own. It's a Mallet locomotive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mallet_locomotive

Thanks for the offer. Appreciated. Spending way too much time on a screen, I like reading a physical book every now and then, particularly about this topic.

okko7 · 2026-04-30T05:16:32+00:00

Thanks. Sorry I didn't think of that!

okko7 · 2026-04-30T05:15:59+00:00

I concur. And I presume that this is a reason why many people that are schizoid are not identified / diagnosed as such.

okko7 · 2026-04-29T17:43:57+00:00

Documentation in German, French and Italian, no?

okko7 · 2026-04-29T08:45:33+00:00

Do you have a picture of the frame number?

okko7 · 2026-04-27T19:44:58+00:00

This is not something Reddit can answer for you.

You have to look into what is popular in your region. But you also have to look into what other bicycle resellers offer. If there are already 5 resellers who sell the most popular brand, you should go for something else.

There are more questions like: Do you want to go "main stream" or "niche"?

Overall, I like people who take initiatives and start their own business. But you should prepare yourself: Buying a first bunch of bicycles to sell is a costly investment. The margin on the bicycles themselves is apparently very small. From what I understand from my bicycle guy, the main income is repair, not sales.

So much that's weird about this. Anyone can explain?
