what’s a deckard?
Terra Nil was way to straight forward for my taste, super clear path what you should do and no way to deviate. It felt like a glorified educational powerpoint. I pictured the idea more as a mixture of OTTD (for trains & trainmanagement), cities & skylines (lots of variety in what could be built and how urbanism evolves and develops when needs are met), SimCity3000 (sudden disaster mode) and this game for real implications of chosing car mobillity that are often ignored in games. And the look&feel also being like this game (which is very much resembling OTTD). Now if only I would have the progamming skills to build it 😅
hmm, you’re gonna hate it but the reason is “because edge is already there” pre-installed
Kudos to the developer, it does look very nice and I like the retro feel. I’ld give it a go.
That said: I would much rather see a city development game where you start off with existing shitty cities full of car dependency and people complaining about everything (including lack of parking spots ;) but also noise and traffic congestion and loud neighbours etc), and the goal would be to try to make it into nice walkable cities while still getting everyone where they need to be (to jobs, to leisure, shops etc), making it more climate proof and creating more living space for growing population. Converting a Houston style existing city to an Amsterdam/Netherlands style city basically. That would be original… All city builders ignore parking (that’s being adressed here I guess), but they all usually also ignore the fact that you start off with existing city and you can’t just bulldoze entire neighbourhoods for prestigeprojects or trainlines/highways.
If you properly use firefox personalised the way you want it, it gives you shitty unusable websites in Europe too. Banking says no, newspapers being buggy to unreadable with certain script blocking or cookie refusal, disable adblock to continue windows etc, it all exists here too. I always try ff. If really needed I open the shitty site in edge and afterwards return to ff… Also public (tax payer funded!) flemish radio and tv for example is completely unusable in ff with proper settings, works “perfect” in edge or chrome. German and Dutch public TV and radio works fine in ff tho.
There’s one good use case for me: produce a bigload of trialcontent in no time for load testing new stuff. “Make 2000 yada yada with column x and z …”. Keeps testing fun and varied while lots of testdata and that it’s all nonsense doesn’t matter.
I’ve found that testing code or formulas with LLM is a 50/50 now. Very often replying “use function blabla() and such snd so” very detailed instructions while this suggested function just doesn’t exist at all in certain language asked for… it’s still something I’ld try if I’m very stuck tho, never know.
Yeah i would call anything actually working in GIS beyond reading what’s there or adding dots or lines to it an IT job.
they’re not dumb, they just have way more cows in their stables than the piece of land the stable is on could ever support with any crop. Am in Belgium. Pretty sure cows here eat a lot more imported crops (mostly from south america) processed to livestockfeed than they eat local grass.
Excepr they barely eat grass anymore, but imported soy from deprecated tropical forests.
After some decades they just become so incredibly gross no one without a hazmat suit would try cleaning it again, so they’re replaced.
It’s an urban car. Most city streets have a 30 km/h limit anyway. Some are 20 km/h (‘living street’). A lot of the more main roady streets in urban environment are 50 km/h, still fine with this. Then the bigger connecting roads might be 70km/h, that would depend on every case for me. Highways are obviously not allowed.
In many streets where the limit is 30-50 km/h, the actual traffic flow is only 10-15 km/h anyway because of congestion. I always feel a cringe seeing people in 600 horsepower vehicles inching by towards the next crossroads, or even worse seeing them wait it out for a minute so they can blast full engine for the solid 200meter and make sure everyone heard them; while I cycle past them at a steady 23 km/h with my 1/4 horsepower legs.
The Mini EV can seat four people, and standard features including air conditioning, power windows, stereo system, storage and compartments. Standard safety features of the Mini EV include anti-lock brakes, tire pressure monitoring sensors, and rear parking sensors. Early models did not include a driver airbag, but later models such as the Mini EV Macaron include the feature as standard.
That’s pretty crazy!
In many places it’s not like you can choose between 10 bike shops. There’s 1 or 2 within walk/bike reach.
My bike cost just 600 € 5 years ago FYI. I didn’t buy a decathlon one because of the bike shops refusing them. Appearantly that’s not a reason to not buy decathlon anymore, but it for sure was before.
There’s indeed a chance I’ll get myself hurt while forcing cars to stop at zebra crossings and giving drivers my middle finger when they’re blocking crossings while they’re in a traffic jam. German and Dutch drivers are really friendly by comparison.
Well their reasoning is “if you buy crap, go to the crap store you bought it”. Some also refuse cheap online bought bikes. They say the parts are inferior and no fixing can fix that, and they have plenty of work.
Tho I now see that decathlon recently started offering fix your bike at your home, so I guess my point became moot!
No it’s just always a battle for space. The linear settlements the old roads run through are wide enough for 1 lane in each direction, 2 narrow sidewalks and perhaps a narrow cycle path. Enter tram: it’s either stuck in traffic with the cars or they have to decide to ban cars and no longer serve the hundreds of driveways on a route, politicians don’t have the balls for that, not even the green ones. I wish they would.
The microlino is litterally modelled after this classic!
Okay, yeah Ieper is quite neatly planned for flemish standards. Poperinge too. I’m living more in the sprawl called Vlaamse Ruit: ghent, antwerp, Brussels, leuven… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flemish_Diamond?wprov=sfla1
Played it pirated years ago. Not really looking to play again tbh because it’s so sad, but I’ll buy it discounted for supporting, I back then liked the very original angle of playing with trapped victims instead of army.
