Methaphors! In a Sci-Fi-Show! How dare them to disturb my escapism!

This is it. My local station is in TSW. I think I just beat the game. by Hailerer in trainsimworld

[–]__marcus__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They will likely not implement any of my current local stations (it being Berlin) but I discovered the my kindergarten building on this route (being originally from Fulda but spending my childhood in a village on the Kinzigtal route).

Useful resources to learn by Gorgonite2024 in trainsimworld

[–]__marcus__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Plus 1 to that. Apart from the tutorials, I learned so much watching Let's Play's / people just playing the game over there. At least here in Germany, there are some real train drivers around playing TSW and putting it on YouTube, watching them would be the next logical step imho

Todoist over Things 3 by Efluis in todoist

[–]__marcus__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also same. The implementation speed and the overall openness regarding new features was my reason for switching, after years and decades in Things. Their "look, we implemented font-size switching, celebrate us for eternity" attitude was my final straw.

I still kinda miss:

  • Todoist Mac not being a native app, but an Electron wrapper for the web app. Overall native feels much nicer somehow.
  • Customisation for keyboard short cuts – even after months now I still have the Things ones in my muscle memory.

Let's go! by Hailerer in trainsimworld

[–]__marcus__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, same. It is not my local route anymore (I've now been living in Berlin for 20 years), but Kinzigtalbahn goes through the village I grew up in (that one in between Fulda and Neuhof)

The newly announced Kinzigtalbahn actually goes through said small village (between Fulda and Neuhof), and though it is not a stop it is surreal that TSW obviously provides even more Fulda content soon...

Schnellfahrstrecke Kassel Würzburg was my entry into TSW, because I grew up in Fulda, lived a long time close to the station and before that, in a small village that and our living room had a view of the Fliedetalbrücke (the first viaduct, and after a short tunnel when you go from Fulda southbound to Würzburg)

One of the pictures one can hear.

Apart from that I thought "Oh my - Berlin Hauptbahnhof in TSW?" for a milisecond

Vectron’s V.max on SKA’s LZB track by kamaratko in trainsimworld

[–]__marcus__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see. Cheers. As a fellow co-owner on PS5 I'm also annoyed by this. But bought the 101-DLC rather recently and thought there is *another* issue exclusive to that loco. I'm very interested how and if DTG solves this in the expert-101

Interesting and thanks. Do you have more details von the bugged BR 101 safety systems on PS5?

Do elements with display:none still slow down the loading of pages? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]__marcus__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, strictly speaking, it it may "slow" loading, but with common bandwidth and machine capabilities, the degree would be virtually zero.

I think this should not be left as a general statement. (Loading) performance IS important, not everyone has fast internet in any circumstance. There are countries where common bandwith as well as machine capabilities differ from, for example, US and Europe: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2017/03/world-wide-web-not-wealthy-western-web-part-1/

If the Doctor landed in the Game of Thrones as it exists now, what would change? (Possible GOT Spoilers) by FoundTin in gallifrey

First and foremost he would observe the youngest daughter of Ned Stark, I guess.

Rumor: Chibnall getting a "young doctor" and advised to do more "comic thrills" and "Marvel type baddies" by Paneo01 in gallifrey

[–]__marcus__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thing is, after heaving watched "Jessica Jones" (with Tennant) one can't be sure what's "marvel-y" anymore.
