@unsereOEBB Next question: I’m looking into the RJX 897 Ulm→Wien for 2 adults and a 3yo on shop.oebb. The kid travels for free, but when I want to add a seat reservation it only does so for the two adults?

@unsereOEBB Our NJ469 Paris→Wien on Thursday is cancelled. 1. It’s neither von/nach DE, so can these tickets be used on daytime service? 2. Does this also apply to non-OEBB, like SNCF (likely TGV)?

@Trogambouille Mastodon. I think @doctorow puts it well in pluralistic.net/2023/08/06/foo…

I don't want to hurt them. That's why I'm asking here: Where are you rather in the blue sky or on a primeval mammal? I'm in/on both but won't have the capacities to continue this forever.

My @TEDTalks is now online. I argue that we have the opportunity to build a world where we can all live well, and tackle our environmental problems at the same time. This is possible, but not inevitable. We have to push to make that a reality. ted.com/talks/hannah_r…

@Jean_no Train de nuit Paris → Linz, ou bien de jour avec escale à Frankfurt ou Zürich.

Le festival où je ne suis jamais allé... Il y a un train, pour Linz ? C'est facile de se loger ?

An alarming 87% of classic video games released in the US are unavailable. Here’s why that matters. gamehistory.org/87percent

Tomorrow I'll be speaking at the #LD4_2023 conference on #LinkedData about « #Wikidata & the sum of all video games: putting the "linked" in video game metadata » − join me at 16:30 CEST (14:30 UTC) 2023ld4conferenceonlinkedda.sched.com/event/2176f0ba… youtube.com/watch?v=pvrxTh…

@Trogambouille Interesting article − thanks! One question − the date of birth is stated there as 1968, but the source interview (wilsonsdachboden.com/2015/01/interv…) says 1961 (which is also what Hall of Light has hol.abime.net/hol_search.php…) − typo? (asking for wikidata.org/wiki/Q120543876 ;-)

@Trogambouille @nabatz And then there is the VGMS metadata schema and its controlled vocabularies, from @UWGamerGroup gamer.ischool.uw.edu/releases/

@Trogambouille @nabatz All these are not 'academic' controlled vocabularies ; another one of these would be the OLAC Video Game Genre Vocabulary (web.archive.org/web/2022012303…) − which we also have in #Wikidata (see wikidata.org/wiki/Property:…, ivdn.org/metadata/linki…, slideshare.net/peterchanws/vi…)

Thanks to Adrain Demleitner I now found the results of the #Gamecip project on two controlled vocabularies for computer game platforms and computer game media formats. #Gamestudies gamemetadata.soe.ucsc.edu/home 1/

@unsereOEBB Thanks for the answer. 4 months (!) after planning the trip, the whole thing collapses… No possibility to book the 13th or the 17th either… 😢

@jeanfred According to current info, the NJ468 runs only to Strasbourg on July 15. Unfortunately, we still have no information when the booking will be possible. Sorry.

@unsereOEBB Morning! I have been meaning to book the Vienna→Paris Nightjet 468 on July 15th. It kept being all “tickets not available” for so long in advance so I kept checking back. Now I see that some NJ468 are available before and after but not that one! What’s going on?

@unsereOEBB The July 15th is still missing in action :-( Is it remotely possible it will come back? We’re considering just giving up on it…

@jeanfred Yes, it will become avaiable.

@unsereOEBB The July 15th is not in the timetable anymore! 😱 How worried should I be? 😰

@Trogambouille @hekabeohnename @_l17r_ @AddrichMauch @AKPotthast “zweitens auch keinerlei Datenbanken, die sich nach Entstehungsländern sinnvoll filtern lassen” − assuming I read that correctly, I must nitpick a bit :-) as we do have Play:Right playright.dk/info/land/schw… & OGDB ogdb.eu/index.php?sect…
