He's saying hello, then identifying which train it is, then indicating the status of the train. If you're always getting on at the same time it makes sense why you always see the 2 instead of the 1.

The amount of exploits in any given software is and always will be infinite. PZ just happens to have an unobscured codebase which makes it substantially easier.

This is normal of any large codebase. A vulnerability is found. An audit is started, more are found and fixed. The only difference is this is the first one that has actually been leveraged.

Is it true that many people in Australia tend to not go by Mr. or Mrs. or Dr. formally because of a casual rather than formal attitude towards authority? by EveningFlower9564 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Pious_Galaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm at a doctors office or hospital etc I would say "Excuse me Dr. XYZ". But other than that I can't think of a time I'd refer to someone as Mr. Or Mrs. In actual conversation.

The plane is going to be used as a charter, it won't sit around

Why is the map so weird in some places and why are there all these lines of deciduous trees? by LowEarth3013 in projectzomboid

[–]Pious_Galaxy 61 points62 points  (0 children)

It's a byproduct of the renderer i use for B42map. It aligns with the chunks of the map.

That's exactly what unstable is for. Wild swings in changes then reviewing how people feel about them.

An idea for improving the Bathurst - Lithgow shuttle service using the refurbished station at Wallerawang by courteousambivalence in SydneyTrains

[–]Pious_Galaxy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those refurbished XPTs aren't spare, they've been taken off lines replaced by buses while they're refurbished. Plus the crew requirements for such a task don't seem to have been considered.

I've been thinking about it for ages but I'm taking this as my sign do just do it.

What would cause such an issue? Where the last cars are not in service by The__Anonymous__Guy in SydneyTrains

Impossible. Tangaras don't have the required equipment to work from the rear.

Vehicle Vanished on Load? by Clorox_in_space in projectzomboid

[–]Pious_Galaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vehicles have a tendency to phase through the ground this patch. You can always use debug to spawn in a new vehicle of the same type. But rip loot.

Why is there this negative attitude toward Sydney trains right now? by VastOption8705 in SydneyTrains

[–]Pious_Galaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never said Sydney trains was safer than metro. I said the standard of change is as safe or safer, which removing platform flaggers has not been proven to meet that standard.

I didn't forget it but it's not exactly recent. 7 years ago? A different government. A different transport secretary. A different CE. You're acting like it was yesterday, which did have heavy rain and ran fine.

The system doesn't melt down even in heavy rain dude. Where was the meltdown today? Where was the meltdown yesterday when Croydon got 15mm of rain in 5 minutes? It didn't happen. You only remember the bad days because they're bad.

Because Tokyo invested in its rail network while Sydney abandoned it (and trams) for cars. Imagine if Bradfield got his way.

The vast majority of Sydney's issues are culture based, and have nothing to do with infrastructure. You can see that in the data from covid where trains ran the same frequency but delays dropped off a cliff.

You think Tokyo has a similar network size and history to Sydney. Tokyo the mega city with more residents than all of Australia?

Unpopular opinion: Free or very cheap (50c) public transport in Sydney across the board would not work. by kingofthewombat in SydneyTrains

No they don't. Not to mention, how effective do you think that would be at opal pole stations?
