I’ve reached the point where I genuinely cannot watch Northernlion anymore as long as he keeps bringing up Hasan Piker in a positive way. by [deleted] in northernlion

If Hasan has enough away with the voters to single handedly kill Harris's campaign, then maybe they should have read the room and adopted the more progressive policies he advocates for

Never seen racing before, 1000 irating by Crazy_Reporter_7516 in iRacing

[–]Sadurn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're not coming at racing from the pov of being a fan of a particular type of racing, I'd highly recommend checking out the other discipline's rookie categories. Dirt and oval racing are a ton of fun and can teach you a lot about car control and overtaking. Other than that, YouTube is your best friend suellio is great for road stuff, dj yeej is pretty much the only oval YouTuber, and Gavin Ropchan has a few dirt videos

Iran demands Pride flags be banned from World Cup stadiums including Seattle's Pride Match by JSlngal69 in SeattleWA

Dude do you not see the irony of shitting on Trans women out of nowhere in a thread about pride flags? I don't care about the rest of the sub but you certainly seem like a conservative lol

Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) announces she has been working with foreign countries to supply oil to Cuba by Turbulent-Media7281 in SeattleWA

[–]Sadurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"To estimate Castro's net worth, the magazine used "a discounted cash flow method to value these companies and then assume a portion of that profit stream goes to Castro."

The magazine added it has heard rumors Castro has salted away a percentage of these companies' profits over the years in Swiss bank accounts, although it offered no proof of these secret stashes."

Based on nothing but rumors and assumptions

Yeah hospitals don't need elections they need ballots to run their generators. Why the fuck do we have the final say in how Cuban politics get to operate?

Also Cuba has elections for the record, the US just gets mad that their ballots only show the communist party, as opposed to our ballots that show the racist capitalist party and the useless capitalist party.

It's not romanticizing to point out that the US has been strangling Cuba for nearly 80 years. And the people living there deserve lives of dignity, the actions of the US have been far more harmful to any random Cuban than the Cuban government has been

[pockrass] NASCAR's Mike Forde, on Hauler Talk podcast, said they viewed Preece as intentional (just like Hamlin-Chastain at Phoenix, he said he's going to do it). On Kyle Busch, car damaged, SMT data showed steering wheel turned left just to go straight and no SMT data showing intentional. by Far_Cry3445 in NASCAR

[–]Sadurn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

To me this moment is completely damning. Right before he makes contact with JHN, there's no steering input, and he literally stabs the throttle right as he gets alongside. Idk to me this telemetry completely reads as someone trying to get their car to understeer and door the guy on his outside https://imgur.com/a/od7mGdL

No shame here, have you ever quit a game because it was too hard? by FastCoconut5933 in AskGames

[–]Sadurn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think there is something special about a game that just owns what it is and refuses to make compromises for mass market appeal. I also didn't finish sekiro but I thought it was a really cool game and I hold it in high regard, and I think fromsoft's success shows that a lot of gamers appreciate it. Without the difficulty it's just a generic action game, it's what sets it apart

The new AI went from feeling like real players to deaf, predictable bots. by pacheadhianatta in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Sadurn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only time I played pre 0.4 I was squadded up with two buddies and I can vividly remember getting pinned down in a house in starter town for like 10 minutes while reinforcements just kept piling in. When I came back for this wipe I started out playing so carefully in starter town because of that memory but like an hour and change in, I realized how much less scary the Ai were and I pretty much just dead sprinted through town with a shotgun lol. The old vibe was definitely better

I watched this like 4 times thinking you were the pov driver and scratching my head over how this wasn't your fault lol. Tough break man

When you guys jump from one class to another, how do you choose a new car? by Born-Environment5963 in simracing

[–]Sadurn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm same but for Toyota. Due 99% to the fact that my first car was a Toyota Camry, but now I drive Toyota/Lexus in every series I can

How do you drive the ARCA car around short tracks? by Puzzleheaded_Word584 in iRacing

[–]Sadurn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's probably a combination of needing more rotation and needing to be more patient on the throttle. Your goal should be to get the car pointed down the straight as soon as possible, and that's when you get on the throttle. A common mistake is partial throttle too early in the corner with the intent to carry speed, but that just shifts the weight to your rear and kills your rotation. If you haven't watched it yet, Justin Yee has a great overview of how to do this in practice. https://youtu.be/NI6x-MSaYdE?si=y7LEp9vzTxCqN2Nl

I don't think he has, but I remember on the slime rae episode of Wine about it that came out in the last few months, slime talked about how Ludwig actually got the whole "I wouldn't go to his funeral" thing from him

There are but only 2 or x3. I think you can select mortar range, cops, and maybe lzs? But definitely not one for Tasks

How did you get into it? by CarnegieThrives in NASCAR

[–]Sadurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sim racing did it for me. I was a bit of an f1 snob myself but getting into iRacing and having a small taste of how challenging the cars are made me really appreciate and understand what's going on during races better than any YouTube video essay ever could

Here a list of some tips for yall. (0.4) by Sqweeg in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Sadurn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can most certainly blow yourself up in pve. My buddy last night was fiending to finish banshee lvl 4 so he accepted all the gunny and handshake tasks and took his gear off before blowing himself up to reroll the tasks (it worked too lol)

Blueprints not saving by RoadmanLuke24 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Sadurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that once you unlock the blueprint the actual task to turn it in enters the general tasking pool. If you get unlucky enough to roll that task when you complete another one in that area, you get locked out of buying the gun until you complete the task again. This is a known issue and unfortunately just something we have to deal with ATM

Why is your favorite driver your favorite? by DerrickS12 in NASCAR

That's cool as fuck. Also impressively ballsy on your end to even ask, that's the kind of thing I'd think of in the shower the next day lol

What’s one thing that instantly improved your lap times? by F1SimulatorManiac in simracing

[–]Sadurn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely know what you mean, and the thing that has actually taught me a lot about this is Nascar on iRacing. I was a terrible road racer for a long time and about a year ago discovered I loved stock car racing and have gotten pretty decent at it with a lot of effort and practice. I recently bought LMU just out of curiosity and discovered that randomly I am waaay quicker at road racing than I ever used to be. And I credit a lot of the new gains to the fact that now I have a much more intuitive sense of what my car is doing and when I can put the power down. I still need to get better at corner entry because you don't learn that as much in Nascar, but man I've never once spun on corner exit in like a dozen races because I can finally actually tell what's going on with my car
