  • The issue was related to the Linux scheduler. So if you had a different scheduler than what moet distributions have as default, you might not have experienced that issue.

    There are a few people in the comments that reported that they compiled a different scheduler and that the issue completely disappeared


  • It was in my case. Issue completely vanished overnight. I had a working work around where I lowered certain settings and it only occurred sometimes at round ends or when I pressed tab to view the scoreboard. Usually alt-tabbing resolved it.

    After they released that fiz everything worked like normal again.






  • Best way I can think of to promote carpooling is kind of what colruyt tried.

    Employee bus that goes down the main highway ( Belgium ). It has WiFi and you csn keep working on your way home. Every minute worked counts.

    You’ll just need a bigger carpark by the highway. 30 minutes delay? It’s not lost time. Still want to use your car? Sure. But you’ll work longer and have to drive home afterwards.

    I am not a traffic expert. The approach might be flawed. But it seems like a step in the right direction.

    At least it’s better than complaining about overcrowded busses and trains who are delayed again. And while it might not solve the issue, If you can get a 10 people per bus. It should start adding up eventually. The incentive to take public transport doesn’t disappear with the disappearance of traffic jams. Its an alternative to sitting longer in the office and being home later.

    I think colruyt did something like this for a while? https://reset.vlaanderen/2017/09/01/kantoorbus/

    Maybe its something you can book a seat on and should be scheduled on a larger scale than just 1 company.

    One can dream I suppose. Hell will freeze over when most companies will “trust” their employees enough to work on the bus though.


  • I’m in a similar boat. 45m drive by car. 2h using PT. Including a 30 minute walk for the last bit to my office. This doesn’t include waiting for busses or trains.

    Realistically it’d be 2.5h without delays. And that’s just one way. After that I’m expected to work for 8h and do it again.

    So if i leave at 7am, +5h+8h +30minute lunch break I’d be home by …8.30pm?

    And that is hoping the connections line up after work… Cycling isn’t really an option as there’s no shower in the workplace. And knowing corps I’m pretty sure they won’t appreciate people charging their electric bike battery in the office for free.

    RIP work-life balance using PT. And I already feel like it’s shit.

    Though I do try to use the train when I can. Even though it ain’t cheap either…



  • Its a plague in online games. If its anything like real life I assume that people just get a kick out of doing it and getting away with it. Stomping people and being elitist about it. I guess that’s the reason why people smurf too.

    Like a rich kid feeling better than the rest because dad=rich and your dad is not.

    People can do whatever they want in single player games. Run with infinite ammo, god mode, flying, unlock all skills at lvl 1, increase stats/or resources on demand. I dont care. Maybe it takes the edge off or maybe they want to go through the campaign story without all the grinding after a long day at work or school.

    I’m not complaining. I won’t lose any sleep over it. If it fulfills your power fantasy or whatever. Go for it. You’re not hurting anyone.

    But the people who cheat in online games can piss right off. They’re ruining of for everyone on multiple levels ( kernel AC, online enjoyment, … ).

    I recently saw a documentary clip on how people cheat nowadays with arduinos and PIs to circumvent kernel anti cheat and stuff. It was fucking depressing.

    If you get joy from ruining other people their day you need to go outside, touch some grass and contemplate your life’s choices.

    The same goes for smurfs. If you want to stomp on something then go stomp on very easy bots while they aren’t sentient yet.
