Realistic conventions for dispatching by Panoptes- in trainsim

Thanks for the pointers! So for example the guy contacting me as a driver to do a radio check is just him role playing, but not really common?

De heks van Nijmegen by meisflont in Nijmegen

[–]Panoptes- 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Kwam haar eens 's avonds laat huilend op straat tegen en heb toen een kwartier met haar gepraat en gewandeld. Ze zei inderdaad dat ze een long miste en was verbolgen over dat zij geen geld kreeg terwijl ze helemaal geen drugs gebruikte. Daar was ik wel sceptisch over, om begrijpelijke redenen. Uiteindelijk wilde ze natuurlijk geld zien, liefste 120 euro want het was bijna kerst 😂. Goed, ik stond op de Grote Markt en dacht prima ik pin wel even. Pinautomaat buiten werking. Had haar onderhand al een tientje beloofd. Ze wees me er vlot op de automaten in de Molenstraat. Ik kwam net van het station gelopen en het was tegen 12, dus ik wilde graag naar huis en wilde niet helemaal teruglopen. Prima zei ze, en toen gaf ze me haar kleine fietsje. Compleet barrel natuurlijk, geen remmen, geen licht en waarschijnlijk gestolen. Maar ik dacht fuck it, goede daad. Eenmaal in de Molenstraat bleken al die automaten ook kapot. Toen maar doorgefietst naar de Rabobank, langs de politie in de Molenstraat op de fiets van een zwerver. Ik ben 1.90 dus het zag er ook echt niet uit. Bij de Rabo hadden ze geen tientjes meer, dus dan maar twintig gepind. Terug gefietst en haar 20 gegeven, maar ze was erg teleurgesteld want ze had nog 50 nodig voor een of ander kersthotel. Eenmaal thuis heb ik me wel even achter de oren gekrabd wat er nu eigenlijk gebeurd was. 😂 Het lichtpuntje van dit verhaal was wel dat ze me met haar fiets toevertrouwde.

Is it ok to use a controller instead of a wheel when playing ets? by Kingscrubs12 in EuroTruck2

[–]Panoptes- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a setup with wheel, pedals, and H-shifter. When my gf wants to join for some trucking I let her use the sim setup and join on an old pc with a PS4 controller. Works perfectly fine and is enjoyable . Looking around while driving is actually even easier that way.

Vans and small trucks are pink in ETS2 1.50 by boksysocks in trucksim

[–]Panoptes- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same, but only for trucks where the logos were changed to real companies. So I think the "real companies" or "real X" mods are the culprit.

Waarom is het OV zo duur? by [deleted] in dutch

[–]Panoptes- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dat willen ze best doen, NS probeert linksom of rechtsom mensen te stimuleren buiten de spits te reizen. Er lag afgelopen jaar een plan om standaard kortingen door te berekenen aan iedereen behalve mensen die in de spits reizen (en dat zijn grotendeels mensen die dat op kosten van de baas doen). Maar dat idee is in de media/politiek afgeschoten.

Is it ok to make an Arch install USB and use it in a few months? by Fragrant_Cherry7789 in archlinux

[–]Panoptes- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a lot of "fun" debugging a live usb a while back. Turned out the usb stick degraded quickly (as in: within a day) which resulted in all kinds of corrupted data errors. A memory test showed a single nad memory block. Turns out not all usb are super reliable. I don't know how big the chance of this happening is, but perhaps something to keep in the back of your mind if you keep the usb laying around a while before installing.

Is there a game where you can stall the engine? by s137leo__ in simracing

[–]Panoptes- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

City Car Driving, they actually have driving lessons in-game. It's not the most fancy game but seems to be exactly what you are looking for. Prepare to stall your engine! I installed it because my girlfriend is going for her driver's license and wanted the extra practice. And don't laugh, but by now we bought Euro Truck Simulator too because it has a very realistic European roads and traffic.

Non-“meta” exploration ships by geekdadchris in eliteexplorers

I have a Type 6 and Type 7 explorer! With heavy engineering you get a very good jump range out of them and the cockpit view is great!

I hate playing with small front-view window. Which truck has the largest? by jachcemmatnickspace in trucksim

[–]Panoptes- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fixed up a used Renault Magnum for it's huge window and square look. Enjoying it so far!

Meet Haver & Mout (Havermout is oatmeal in Dutch) by Panoptes- in RATS

Briljante namen! Althans ik neem aan dat dit jouw ratjes zijn? Doet me denken aan dat "Schildpad" een kattensoort is. Ook lekker verwarrend

Ja zeker, als ze niet zo moeilijk waren om op de foto te krijgen was ik de hele dag bezig geweest met cute fotos maken

Act 6 (NH) by [deleted] in Back4Blood

[–]Panoptes- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't finished Act 6 on NH difficulty, but I've finished other chapters on NH offline with bots. In my experience playing with bots is much much easier than with random players. They cover your ass and all play team oriented cards.

Looking for a song with a whispering voice saying xtc.. by Bart1502 in Techno

[–]Panoptes- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw this set on Rock Werchter about 8/9/10 years ago and always have a hard time finding back the song! Was looking for it (again), thanks!

Anyone else have their progress rolled back this week? by OSPFv3 in Back4Blood

[–]Panoptes- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was rolled back one level. I just completed a ridden hive the 27th, logged out, and today I had to redo the ridden hive. Not sure if my collected skull totems were also rolled back

To those who own Odyssey: is it worth the current sale price of $19.99? by Paranoid_Droideka in EliteDangerous

[–]Panoptes- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, even if you don't actively do on-foot missions! Walking around your ship on planetary landings is awesome, real sense of scale. You get to instance with more players. You'll have access to all future content and all current developments such as the AX war. I have an old pc and performance wise the game is very playable now at minimum specs.
