  • Mayve they mean a greater turkestan from, I guess the Hotan River to the Caspian Sea? Incorporating Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Usbekistan, as well as several non turk people, like Tajiks?

    ‘Absurd’ speed limit lands $460 fines for cyclists. Even joggers overtook them
  • I have been to plenty of public spaces shared by bicyclists and pedestrians(squares, markets and the like), it is sometimes chaotic, but it was never dangerous. This is a ridiculous take on the danger of bikes. Semmingly coming from a place with no bicycling cluture.

    The Fairphone 5 is less about what comes in the box and more about what you get over the years
  • My last fairphone died of a busted motherboard, which wasn't replacable. Since then I am kinda sceptical about the "repairable" part.

  • can you not control it? is the lying a compulsion for you? I mean… the evidence of what I said is right there yet you insist I said something I clearly didn’t. it’s… very strange.

  • I am researching how to cross into China from Kyrgyztan and some travel pages are something else.

    Look at this shit, just look at the url even: https://caravanistan.com/east-turkestan/

    And the forum on the same site is just full of normal people being like: "Yeah, I am a muslim and all the uighur borderguards were very friendly."

    Also noone there apparently gives a fuck about it anyway. The biggest problem in Xinjiang for foreigners seems to be finding a hotel in Kashgar that will take them.
