Making the jump from arcade/simcade to actual sim racing has been harder than I expected. You have to basically unlearn everything because you have to change your approach from "Go fast and slow down if you fail" to "Don't fail, then speed up" For someone like me that's a hard transition to make.

Cutting 57 hours of BBG VODs: 3 hours Verifying they're cut properly: 1 hour Exporting to Youtube: 1 hour Staring at the screen going "WTF Youtube" and re-exporting over and over again: 719 hours Help me budget this my schedule is dying.

I should collect feedback on BBG's content warning system. I did something different with it because I feel other events do it wrong. I have the warning up all run with context on WHEN and HOW to expect the problem. I think it's better, but I am one creature.

My friend group grabbed me and threatened (kinky) violence if I didn't stop taking on projects for a bit so I guess that's a thing. They can act on it too! Gives me time to quietly plan what's coming next anyway.

Well it happened finally. A datacenter powering my video transit cluster had an incident in the middle of a marathon. We switched to another server and kept on trucking but augh :)

There's a bug in my marathon tech stack that I thought I'd fixed 3 times now. It's hit the same person two of those three times. In short, Youtube's embed system leaks memory like a sieve and Browsersources are extremely intolerant of high RAM usage. I need to cut our reliance on Youtube yesterday

I wrote an entire new content warning system just for the run that's on right now.
The BigBadGameathon stream overlay: a purple geometric design with purple borders. Zoomed in on one text element. An orange background with black bold and underlined text saying "Severe Eye Strain and Photosensitivity Warning. Take frequent breaks and avoid if you are photosensitivie."

Oh I'm cooked. I just made an HDG joke in the BBG Staff Chat... It's okay. Public face has a filter... Except that time Bro asked me on comms if he's the only one who hates the sound of squeaking rubber. I think that's the longest I've ever gone with a mic in front of me and NOT talking.

Gonna ask here because asking this anywhere actually for this hobby sounds like a MASSIVE amount of unfun waiting to happen: Are there any trans/queer/otherwise-GNC sim racing streamers or creators out there? I realized literally all the racing streamers I watch are British dudes.

Everyone in a position of any power or voice in a community needs to understand this: You are excluding someone. You are. It's being done at this very second. You're either excluding loud people being loud in a way incompatible with your community, or quiet people who don't feel safe there.

I had my access to meds go unstable right when I'd planned to do a lot of BBG prep work, and instead played 72 hours of racing games because I couldn't cope well. Now that I fixed the meds, I'm scrambling to finish and feel like I failed in smoothly setting all this up. But it's going to get done.

To state such completely out of the thread from anyone else, as wholly my take and statement: It's time to completely scorched-earth boycott the IFPA until it dies. No one, at all, should be playing in their events. The amount of work to do to make it open and fair again eclipses feasibility.

So I just found out 4 months of literal constant bullshit with my medication has been caused by an AI insurance-side that gets asked "Does this need a prior auth?" and does not take in any uh... data... regarding having already gotten one before. Incandescent with rage.

"Hey I'm gonna try Le Mans Ultimate" I say to myself. This is the incident graph for my first online race. Not my incidents; I only had one: someone decided to park on top of my head on right at the green flag.
An eight lap race's timeline from the Le Mans Ultimate replay viewer. About half the bar is painted yellow indicating individual incidents that are SUPPOSED to be distinct hash marks.

Getting actual sleep fixed me, mostly. I had a pretty bad night/morning and an anxiety spiral when I realized it was 8:30am and I hadn't slept yet despite trying. Which is a shame because my actual evening was really good, so I dunno where all that came from; heh.

We need something between Twitch and OwnCast. Where Big Money won't decide to milk everyone for profit, but also each streamer isn't expected to know Linux and bring their own node and bandwidth. We need cells of community-based platforms that share discovery, but don't federate blindly together.

Looks like Choro-Q as a whole is... - One MSX game that is a clone of Mappy - A TON of lost media phone games - 25 console games of which I can probably play 20 with a combo of fan patch, official English release, and "bumbling through" Of those like 6 are heckin' war games using Choro-Q tanks!
