• Tor: From the Dark Web to the Future of Privacy

  It seems, at the beginning of the 90s there were a lot of expectations in regard to DC-nets, considered to be a way better alternative to remailers of the time [1]. At least that's my impression after reading Tim May's FAQ (The Cyphernomicon) [2]. Any progress on this front?

• F’ck headwinds

  I’ve been using MyWindsock which handily adds a weather report including wind data, into my Strava activity reports so I k ow I’m not just being soft. That said having my power meter let me know my effort hasn’t dropped is handy as well. Source: about 1 year ago

• I ride bikes. These are my bookmarked websites. (no affiliation)

  Mywindsock.com ( for weather forecast, wind direction) $. Source: about 1 year ago

• Brompton pump dislodged mid-ride on a windy first 50k ride of the year

  Oh, somehting like that could be quite useful. Do you mean this one, myWindsock? Source: about 1 year ago
