Quote from Scawen :There is no possible defence for invading a country and destroying cities.

The invasion of France in 1814? Invasion of Italy 1943? Invasion of France and Poland 1944 and subsequently Germany from both sides? Invasion of Manchuria 1945?


(not defending this Ukraine invasion, which is clearly not justified, just making a side point)

Quote from Motordirex :Wicked last race for the series! Loved watching the replays, maybe I'll race next time (if I get fast enough).

Just do it, the whole point of the series is there is no lower entry limit and you get better by taking part.

Will players be able to make individual skins for mods like we can make custom skins for current cars and upload them to lfsworld for them to be seen by others?

Quote from racerAntti :Actually it is somewhat false conception that Linux would be more private than Windows.

In Windows, you can control what goes out for each application and service quite easily, with Linux you have to do quite bit more and by default you get exposed really badly.

ip-v6 is really bad for privacy, so is all mainstream new browser versions with default settings and some older browsers actually allowed even more privacy to be tuned, but it takes quite bit of effort.

For me, Windows with tweaks has been more private than what I have managed with Linux. Recommend to connect system trough machine configured as proxy and capturing what machine is sharing to internet, that gives quite good picture of what is happening.

With default settings, Windows indeed is a disaster, but Linux is not much better in privacy, in terms of security might do bit better, but everything is open jacket at cold winter day these days.

Steam client is another thing, in Windows it is fairly easy to disable it from running constantly and prevent it from connecting Steam every minute, sending quite bit of data to them, in Linux not so easy.

Anaconda (python thing) was also interesting, in Linux after I chose to install autocompletion tool for Spyder there was constant massive data transfer happening, removal required lot of research on numerous of internet sites, nothing but good old fashioned spyware disguised as a tool.

Phones are the worst, it is so easy to collect massive amount of data from individuals trough smartphones, your location within meters, your active hours, etc.

My internet is actually off for weeks sometimes, I turn it on only when needing to open some web page and even when reading some page I set FW to fully block everything, normal setting is block everything in and out unless temporarily allowing.

So you can do quite a bit to improve privacy aspect, it does not need to be so that you share all if using internet. Best thing, have no javascript,angular,certain html5 features, only allowing such temporarily case by case basis, same for server requests, have strict control which servers pages can make connections to, google is in total ban here, if site does not work without it, it is not site I need to visit.

In big picture, everyone making effort to make it difficult for these big corporations to get data matters, I don't want to live in dystopia so have to make a stand against road that is leading to such world.

Anyway, it looks like there has been some users on my server which is nice, there has been some kicks because of bad controls, some people might have different opinions about this, but I chose to limit mouse and keyboard using to those who can be rather fast with such setups.

My idea is to provide racing possibilities for those who wish to race close to real world style of racing, so server might not be everyone's cup of tea of course.

You have no idea what Windows is doing, you haven't seen the source code. Microsoft is just as involved as Google, Facebook et al in data collection, they are bound by laws to let governments access the data they collect and they as you use their operating system they can have access to everything you keep on there. You and noone else but them knows exactly what Windows does or really how secure it is because it's closed source.

This reminded me of seeing, a while back, a screenshot of a WIP of a system where two races were being run at the same time at different parts of a loaded track.

When you get a good race in this game, even after many years it's still a great feeling. Which is why I play.I won't ever be great at this game but that's maybe good for me in terms of getting fun out of it because it'll always be a challenge. Big grin

I'd be up for it again.

Edit: Perhaps change the title to include "F08 league" to attract more interest because I didn't notice this thread for a few days or remember the league was called VERL.

Quote from Bmxtwins :Well known issue. On kyoto 500 qualifying and kyoto 250 qualifying, drivers would try to time their fuel perfectly because right before the line they get a slight speed boost. This lagging also appeared there. User is not cheating. @dekojester and @flame_cze can confirm.

Exploiting an unintended behaviour is cheating really.

Quote from cargame.nl :Then don't read, a lot of postings on this forum I also don't like, if I need to whine about every one of them then it's a lot of whining.

We have the same rights here, you are not allowed to tell what I must do or not do here. Besides, if you read back in this topic my messages are completely normal and neutral. You and some others here like to read with different glasses, it's not my problem.

Someone came on here asking a genuine question and you called it retarded. What use is it you being on here, you don't race online, you don't host any more, you don't contribute anything of value, you just snipe at others who still enjoy the game. Go away and find something else to do for everyone's sake, including your own.

The best way to race is to join a pre-organised one. You can find information on them here https://www.lfs.net/leagues/calendar That part of the game isn't dead.

Quote from cargame.nl :If serious racing activity increases @LFS maybe it's a different story but as you can make up from any other development thread the last, eight years now, things are on a stand still. The racing which takes place is of bad quality, there are a handful aliens left, the rest is just cruising along (sorry guys, I know some trying the best they can... But..).

No need to apologise, I don't do my below par racing for your benefit.
