   Hey train nerds, is there stats on the mean speed of ICEs trains in germany? Looking at the live speed of the one I'm in right now (at most 150km/h), and the fact it's still catching up on its delay, I feel that the answer is damning.

   Austerity is bad kids, don't do that.

     @rafi0t @quinn German institutions generally don’t publish numbers that make them look bad but if I had to guess I’d say it’s half the average speed of the TGVs.

     @quinn @rafi0t “German Idealism” is still deep in their culture which amounts to make-belief and wishful thinking.
