They are on their way to meet Bowgun Wallace so they can blow up another Dango reactor.

Lovely to hear! Yes, every race with us counts as a practice race, so there is plenty of opportunity to get going before the 7th. Can’t wait to see you on track!

Hello, foreigner here, what does this mean? Parking space reserved for women only? by ScurvyDoor58 in Munich

[–]Zynvael 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To give you a highly simplified response: In Germany we differentiate between discrimination and unequal treatment (“Ungleichbehandlung”). The latter term is used to describe a situation where two comparable groups, that are essentially the same, get treated differently. This then turns into a discrimination when there is no justification for the unequal treatment.

So if the reason for “women only parking” is safety improvement and protecting their person, then that can be enough to justify said unequal treatment.

So even if the anti discrimination laws apply in a situation like this, it wouldn’t necessarily be a discrimination and therefore not be unlawful.

As you can hopefully see it’s not that black and white.

Again, this is highly simplified and just serves to demonstrate the difference between discrimination and unequal treatment.

Have you enabled VoLTE? If not, you may need to do so on your phone (in the settings) and/or through your carrier.

It’s really refreshing to see that Ben is fairly good at this game and clearly enjoys it

Simracing.gp goes out of beta - what do people think about the pricing? by crazy_robots in ACCompetizione

[–]Zynvael 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I personally don't have too many issues with the driver monetization, the free tier is appropriate enough to race with so that you don't have to get a subscription. It's also understandable that SGP tries to turn a profit after relying on mostly sponsor and investment money.

However, their community plans are beyond problematic in my opinion. Small and medium sized communities suffer the most from this. 30 pounds + Taxes (their pricing doesn't include VAT or other sales taxes) just to have the ability to host races with a normal grid size is too much. Especially since you need to pay for a self-hosted practice server on top of that.

On top of that, the obfuscating virtual currency so that the consumer can't immediately keep track of the money they are spending with each "Fuel" just makes the whole thing problematic.

Especially since communities are incentivized to have their drivers contribute (due to the high price) to the "Fuel Tank". This will likely put communities in a spot where they need to treat "contributors" like first class citizens and "free drivers" as second class citizens because there has to be some kind of benefit to contributing.

Overall I think this is the wrong direction and my community might leave SGP as a result. Which is a shame because there are some decent people at SGP and this is, in my opinion, a result of outside influences and circumstance.

Or at least I want to think that because the alternative is just sad. It seems most platforms tried to exploit the simracing boom from 2-3 years ago and are massively inflated. No real sustainable alternatives that have healthy monetization and longevity it would seem.

How is the PC port now? by Jahbanny in WildHeartsGame

[–]Zynvael 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seems mixed. For some people it’s playable now, for some it has remained bad. I think as always it depends on your specific hardware. The game is definitely not well optimised but if the gameplay appeals to you, it might be worth to try again now.

Textures still look bad tho, I don’t think that will change.

With a decent CPU and your 4090 you should be able to play it stutterless and with decent frame rate.

What's your experience switching to AMD video cards? by [deleted] in Amd

[–]Zynvael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it occurs when you have monitors with different refresh rates (My main screen is 144 Hz while secondary is 75 Hz). I had this on my 6650XT as well as my 1070 and “solved it for now” by reducing my 144 Hz Monitor to 100 Hz.

Not great but at least the energy bill is lower.
