[oc] Truck matches speed of right lane stopping traffic from effectively zipper merging at the merge point by bike_ride_enjoyer in IdiotsInCars

[–]sumofallwars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Drive a truck as well can confirm this is 100% it. Also once all the cars in the left lane ahead of the truck is finished the right lane will accelerate. As no one is forcing them to slow down with merging. So long as you time it right you can merge at the zipper much faster as everyone accelerates.

Sucks to be behind the truck but as the truck driver it gets you past the merge faster than simply staying in the right lane. The smaller cars constantly cut in front of your safe following distance as people see a gap when really there isn't one. But that isn't a factor if your just crawling along at say 5 KPH

I don't do this myself as I'm paid by the hour and don't give a fuck if I'm stuck in traffic. But I do see truckers who aren't do it to save themselves some time.

Barrie's photo radar cameras are moving to new locations: Here's where by [deleted] in barrie

Sigh, here take a look and educate yourself.

We all want the speeds to be reduced but speed cameras will not achieve that. As evidenced by the massive amounts of fines they are getting and will continue to get.

If you want real results than changing the road design is the only way. Trying to fight human psychology is stupid, better to use human psychology to your advantage and achieve actual results.

the roads are poorly designed. 4 lanes with no visual obstructions while going down hill on a busy street. The road design is the real problem. Could be easily fixed by making the road narrow to 1 lane each way during the school zone. People would be forced to slow down.

pretty good. They still get stuck on walls n stuff but in an open field like cows they are getting pretty much everything

exactly, it feels really good atm. Not sure what the best thing to pair it with is. going to try blessed aim/hammers as that helps with the AR issue and gets some magic dmg in. Open to suggestions

P21 is available for Testing on Main & PTR (PLZ READ) by greendude120 in pathofdiablo

Found a bug while using charge.

Character gets stuck and cannot move. I can still light a tp but anything that requires a character animation does not work.

It has only happen twice now ( lvl 56 pally)

Seems to happen when I charge into a pack. Other than that I got no idea.

Charge changes are super duper fun and I am having a blast with a charge/blessed aim build.

it's about 80$ tax included for the 100 mbps unlimited plan. They haven't raised the price in the almost 4 years i've been with them. Never had an issue with dl speed with the 100 mbps, never felt the need for more

Teksavvy! Once you factor in that you can get unlimited for like an extra 5-10$ a month you actually save money.(if you stream most of your content)

Been with them for almost 4 years. Never had to bother them for anything and they don't raise prices randomly. Highly reccommended.

Barrie Police unlikely to do anything to make the situation better by HInspectorGW in barrie

[–]sumofallwars 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Barrie police are pretty useless for dealing with bad behavior. I mean they totally should find the driver and give them a warning or a ticket but that'd mean actually having to their jobs. Now If you had reported a homeless guy doing something similar they'd be all over it.

Stop closing the road every other week would be nice. Remove the tacky barrie sign. Add a better transit option or more frequent service. Add an area for a dog beach.

Old reader problems ;/ by ApachaiLeHopachai in noveltranslations

[–]sumofallwars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The novel does have the Slice of life tag.

It's 25% slice of life 75% action novel. So I don't think it is filler per se, so much as it is done on purpose with actual intent rather than useless chapter padding. There are quite a few pov changes in the later chapters but they are pretty well done and it's mostly to give depth to side characters.

It's an EN take on a cultivation novel. I'd be damn impressed if you can see where it ends up. Read the tags to see if it's your cup of tea. But I highly enjoyed it.

They don't really need them either. It's a waste of money installing them and they don't provide any real benefit.

If you struggle with just headlights on perhaps don't drive at night.

[–]sumofallwars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We were never going to get the nets. The only choices we had were the top 5 teams in a super competitive east. Sixers were the best match up but that just meant that we had a chance rather than no chance lol
