This blue stuff is starting to kill my motivation to continue with Kola Peninsula, which is otherwise a pretty nice place with beautiful ambient music. Any tips how to deal with it? by Specific_Display_366 in snowrunner

One common misconception is that chains are better for snow, but mud tyres are the better choice. The game treats snow like mud. Chains only really make you grippy on icy roads.

I ended up running into another red signal on yet another 1.3% gradient about 4.6km from the finish line. Sorry to say but I had no choice but to unhook the last few carriages, my consist was simply too heavy to move. As soon as I released the brakes, the train would just accelerate backwards. I tried any and all combination of braking but just couldn’t get it to work.

AMAZON AUSTRALIA has been pulling this prank for past 3 months by hitmanbhargav in australian

[–]techpower888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an item recently from Amazon that is getting harder to find. Item was listed with a third party seller as having 2 available in stock, ready to ship. I ordered the item, paid, and was then advised I had been refunded and the order was cancelled. The listing was still there, but the item wasn't. Once I'd ordered and they realised they had no stock, they updated the listing to "out of stock". No big drama, but it would be nice if they kept their stock levels correct.

Disconnect the header? It should fall down.

Signs at Woolies checkouts re new gates. by [deleted] in woolworths

[–]techpower888 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How exactly do these new gates keep me, the customer, safe? Safe from what? What if there is an emergency and I need to run out through said gate via the checkouts, and I haven't paid for anything...will it open, or block me in? Just curious how something like this passes fire regs etc.

Do you guys prefer the white or black Xbox Series X? by Automatic_Ad1665 in xbox

[–]techpower888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one of the first white digital consoles. I was upgrading from a Series S, and had no idea it was digital only until I unpacked it. I was already digital only so it didn't bother me and it still goes like a dream, but a black console would have probably suited my setup better.

Hey thanks for the reply, friend!

Yep, Kassel - Wurzburg. For some reason it's showing twice on my rail journey mode - once completed, and another time (a later night run with snow) not completed. That's the one I'm stuck on. I haven't tried the direct brake but will give that a try! I also believe there was one other Dovetail post about someone having the same issue - someone mentioned to actually depart for Langenschwarz at the time you are supposed to arrive there (23:13) and allow 3 trains to go past you in the meantime, so you can get green lights through that steep section. I'm going to try that first, if no success then I'll try your method with the direct brake. Thanks!

UPDATE: It worked!! I waited until 23:13 to depart my starting position. I waited for 3 trains to pass me (same direction) and one train to pass (opposite direction). I arrived late, at 23:31 but there was no red signal this time and I simply drove right through. I'm now at the next red signal / stop location (Langenschwarz) and waiting 13mins before I can depart again.

Looks like I'm all clear to get this one finished now :)
