So you're somewhere in the West, living your usual, comfortable life, which is not that different from the one you were living a year ago.

This is exactly the case for the overwhelming majority of the Russians, except they talk about the war even less than people around you do.

stop normalizing the grind and start normalizing whatever this is

5. For me driving on snow is easier than driving on tarmac, but I can see how it may not be the case for tarmac specialists. Practice some snow stage from leg 3 with hairpins. And practice stage 10 because downhill snow is brutal.

4. Don't lock up brakes at the entry into chicane on stage 11. Actually, it's just a 800 meter show super-stage, so you can practice the Lyon stage three-four times. Surprising amount of people in class messed up on it, and it's basically three straights.

@alesgenova notes:

1. Swiss stage is full of rocks. Just drive in the middle.
2. Leg 2 of the rally has 2 stages with heavy rain, one of which is Swiss stage. Use WET TIRES there.
3. Leg 3 is full snow, DON'T FORGET to switch to snow tires!

First legs have a bit worse notes. It's ok though. Just be careful.

Did a small practice for Monte. Did I wreck the car? No. Did I spin out at every other hairpin? Yes.

Any “positive thinking” doctrine that DOES NOT address the TRUTH of the existence of systems, institutions, and policies DESIGNED to privilege the few at the expense of the many is gaslighting.

Our ability to “positively think” our way towards a supremacy, coercion, discrimination, and exploitation free future WITHOUT these truths is bullshit.

@hexedpress btw, on stream you mentioned that you plan to play / run more stuff next (?) year.

Do you play / run stuff online? I play with , which is an open table campaign. Feel free to join us. Conversely, if you have some stuff to playtest or somesuch, do ping me, I'm interested in this sort of stuff, especially in playtesting adventures and systems and providing feedback.

It's easy to tell that while appreciating the vale of multiple entrances, four years ago I didn't read about the value of loops in dungeons.

I watched @hexedpress's read-through of a starter adventure today. The quality of the show was really great, the format has enabled to organic commentary, and the feedback provided by the host was knowledgable and precise.

Honestly, if not for , I wouldn't have regained that feel of again.

"The Venn Diagram of the Techbro": perhaps the most succinct summary of the paper.

A _very_ interesting and thorough report on toxicity in #OpenSource communities on #GitHub, including a few suggested avenues for improvements.

Let's all strive to do better.

@alesgenova rallysimfans.hu/rbr/rally_onli everything you need to know about the priorities in this rally. Just finishing would place us among the top 10% in the hobby.

There aren't many good Russians, but Kamikadze_d is one of them.

Very based take by him. "Escaping reality is the favourite russian past time".

Yo I feel very today.

I switched from to a stock without completion 10 years ago. And while I enjoy minimalism, whenever I boot (which ships with a pretty decent ) I feel like I've made a .

I don't like the bulkieness of , lack of transparency and at least one bug I know of. What are your suggestions? I want to use a great fuzzy, bash-compatible system which reads my mind. I also want it to be very usable out of the box without some weird scripts like OMZ.
