The Netherlands is concerned about Chinese cyberattacks, Dutch Foreign Minister Wopke Hoekstra said, weeks after The Hague introduced export restrictions on advanced microchips technology to China.

The Netherlands is home to ASML, a keystone for global chips production and the only company outside the US and Japan that is able to produce the printers needed to manufacture advanced semiconductors.

Dutch Speaker of the House of Representatives asked Twitter's Global Government Affairs to do something about the many death threats Dutch politicians receive on Twitter. She also informed Twitter that these are probably punishable under Dutch criminal law.

Dutch public broadcasting news (NOS) asked Twitter for a comment per email and was sent a poop emoji as response.

We saw quite a lot of churches built on the top of mounds in villages. Groningen is mostly below sea level and it used to flood a lot so people built villages on mounds and the church would get the pride of place at the highest point.
The theme of today's ride was to visit as many of these mounds as we could, and the organizer explained the history to us. It was very interesting.

After looking at the church we all turned around and went in the opposite direction. This of course does nothing for your average speed, but today's ride was a recreational ride with a theme, not a race
We also turned around along little paths in the countryside. Our next destination is lunch next to that church spire in the distance
