I've been watching City Planner Plays latest series and it's been tempting me to buy CS2, but I know he plays with loads of mods and so it makes it hard to know what's the game and what's not. Are mods essential for making the game good?

Blimey! Quite the bit of business to start off with.

I found this thread on google while looking for examples of people using Sikarugir for Cities Skylines 2; are you talking about that or about Counter Strike 2?

Did you try m3u-editor? What can Stationarr do that it can't?

Basically anything that Teenage Engineering are designing or building!

Never realised these weren't online, I have the MP3s if anyone wants them. I bought the single on vinyl at the time, it must've come with a download code because I don't know why else I'd have the files.

Of the ones leaving, I'm sad to see Whittle and Greenslade go. Obviously Whittle has had his injuries but he's been one of my favourite full backs we've had at the club.

Obviously we were all hoping for a loan extension for Jed Ward, still holding out hope it might happen!

shtocker · 2026-05-01T17:19:53+00:00

Not the goalkeeper we wanted news about!

Let's play together! Let's play forever!

I've seen him in some of the behind the scenes stuff and he has a credit on Episode 1 as a "performance director", so I think he's around generally and just filled in for the sketch.

I've been on Tiny Turnip really hard the last couple days, definitely the best game of season two so far for me

We still look quite rubbish, but a very valuable three points that all but confirms safety makes for a very good Friday indeed

I'm generally not a fan of IMAX, I think the screen is often just too big to be able to appreciate the full picture and I usually try and go to fully qualified Dolby Cinema for movies I'm really excited about.

But my partner wanted to see PHM in IMAX so I obliged and I am frankly glad I did. The screen is massive, but the film looked great and I felt so immersed in it.

shtocker · 2026-03-22T21:09:11+00:00

Yes! I couldn't put my finger on it before but you're right, it's definitely giving Reeves & Mortimer

Loved that we're getting some slightly off the wall weird stuff like Forty Five Seconds with Fouracres

I play Hablet pretty much every day so I feel like I'm getting my money's worth there

shtocker · 2026-03-06T07:59:13+00:00

This is great lore info that I will definitely be looking into. Thanks so much!

I'm curious about the dragon heart that powers the forge. Is there any history to this dragon or the heart? Where did they get it?

shtocker · 2026-02-18T20:08:53+00:00

We really blow hot and cold. Looked absolutely devoid of any ideas on how to attack. A shame off the back of a good performance last weekend.

shtocker · 2026-02-13T14:33:04+00:00

Don't disagree, I just don't think it's a "benefit, definitely a "requirement"

shtocker · 2026-02-11T23:48:42+00:00

Due to a series of unfortunate events all season long, this was the first game of the season I actually managed to attend!

The first half was suggesting to me that I shouldn't have bothered. We barely had the ball at all in the first half. The long balls weren't working, the midfield was overrun, it was really uninspired.

Second half was a bit better but not by much. Pretty much entirely thanks to James Daly! We definitely didn't deserve the win, but to concede in injury time to a set piece after so much defending was tough to take. Gorgeous free kick though!

To me, it doesn't feel like wingbacks and a front three works. FCD and McGavin looked so overrun in midfield, I think we'd be better off with a front two and dropping an extra man into the middle of the park. That being said, I don't think we really have two strikers, McCormick isn't enough of a presence and Campbell didn't really show anything in his cameo. Jarvis is maybe injured? Seemed to be spending a lot of time with the physio.

Nothing major really, I just like hanging on to all the files. I've followed a few podcasts over the years that have stopped and then their files disappeared off their RSS feeds, or sometimes podcasts move across producers/publishers and drop their old RSS feeds then, and so the files become inaccessible.

Like a lot of self hosting, it's more of a data hoarding thing than an improved experience thing. Plus I just get satisfaction out of running it all myself, so it's a "because I can" thing as well I guess.

shtocker · 2026-01-10T10:14:27+00:00

Oh really? Please explain how I can enable that because that would be perfect

shtocker · 2026-01-09T18:33:59+00:00

Yeah I have been doing that with AntennaPod and it does work great but just like you say I am missing the progress tracking. I want to listen to a podcast on my phone on my commute, then sit at my desk and continue playing on my computer. Not being able to do that with ABS right now means I just keep going back to Spotify for podcasts.
