I recently published a short trying to summarize some TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) measurements of drinking water in Romania, more precisely in Iasi. Since the video was cut by TikTok to some less relevant bits, it became necessary to (re)publish the results here.

I recently purchased a few bike parts and/or accessories from Carrefour and I am looking at prices from other (mostly Chinese) vendors, to make sure I got the lowest price. Most stuff is and has been made in China for quite a while now anyway, so why not buy it direct if it ends up cheaper?
