This is currently me with modded Kerbal Space Program and Cities: Skylines lol

I completely forgot but apparently I joined Lemmy exactly one year ago lol

I don't know how or why, but I get absolutely atrocious stuttering while playing games on X11 that simply doesn't occur with Wayland, so X is just not an option for me.

It's moreso that they think "by the time shit hits the fan, I'll be long dead anyway, so I don't see why I should care". Ergo, pure, distilled lack of empathy, a "fuck you, I got mine" aimed at the future of every living being in our planet.

As someone who has a big guilty pleasure for sports/performance cars and racing in general, this comic actually explains really well how I'm able to reconcile that with my dislike of car-centric infrastructure and wishing for better public transportation: without other means for getting around cities for people who don't care much about cars (i.e. most people), everyone will be forced to use cars for basic transport, meaning really clogged highways and traffic jams that directly affect you and your fancy sports car's enjoyment.

Conversely, if infrastructure was more accommodating for bikes, trains and buses to make them more viable, most people would use them, leaving the streets and highways freer for you to have fun driving your sports car the way it was meant to, instead of being stuck in traffic jams most of the time.

I just wish most people who are into cars realized this, instead of raving about how "they want to take away our cars!" and fellating Andrew Tate and other shitheads.

Now I'm honestly kind of glad that I've been too lazy/depressed to figure out how to get FOLON to run on Linux. I really hope they fix all this...

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 is my childhood game and I will always love it. I also like various other games from the NFS series, from the first one up to Carbon.

Not many newer racing games I like, but I do enjoy occasionally playing art of rally, Inertial Drift, Forza Horizon 4 and Wreckfest.

As a fellow ace, I get your frustrations, I'm sorry you have to deal with this.

Appendicitis. I described it as feeling like a Chestburster from Alien was gestating inside me and ready to chew its way out of me at any second. I needed near-lethal amounts of painkillers while awaiting surgery to not feel like I was about to die.

For comparison, I broke my foot last year and it still wasn't anywhere near as painful as appendicitis.

I'm not technically inclined at all, so the most duct tapey thing I can remember was hacking Gnome to use Nemo as my file browser instead of Gnome's default file browser once.

I dealt with that too, sadly. Thankfully there is a mod that can alleviate it. (I'd link it but it'd also reveal spoilers...)
