What I ran into concerns the MacBook Pro 2018, 15" and the USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter (MJ1K2AM).
I was powering the laptop through the adapter (USB-C) while simultaneously having an external drive (WD Elements 1TB) in the USB-A port. The performance...

In a word: long (but fast) — from Vienna it takes just over four hours. You pass through a bit of Bavaria as well. The views from the train are stunning. I have to say that for the time spent on the train, the journey was very comfortable.

First impression: it's incredibly small! We had the chance to ride through the depot in a partial (electric mode only) trolleybus going through the wash. Which is quite an experience. It's like a car wash but bigger. The ride itself only re...
Something always got in the way and I could never make it to Pardubice. This year I managed it — I bought an electronic ticket (a great idea from the organisers) and headed off. By the way, if you get one of the pricier ticket options you'll be looked...
