@emill1984 ciężko odwołać coś, czego nie zapowiedzieli :p Blizzard parę ładnych razy pomijał Blizzcon z prostego powodu - nie mieli nic do pokazania ;]

@massivelyop It's called "paying the subscription" or "buying the game". Same BS when I was working doing backend work for a company that made graphics applications. The UI developers were superstars. The people making their work possible got nothing. I quit that company.

CompilerBreak,

@massivelyop The heck. If I really liked something I'll get the deluxe version, or dlc, or gift a copy to a friend, or another game that studio made...

@Natanox Solution: Don't "Buy" them anymore

@Natanox if purchase isn't ownership, piracy isn't theft.

Missed this from last week.

WaPo:Goats were stuck in traffic. Dozens of strangers helped milk them...

"Jose Garcia was hauling a load of goats to his California dairy farm when he hit a huge snowstorm as he drove through Utah. Traffic was at a standstill.

He felt panicked as hours ticked by with snow and high winds swirling around the truck, and no sign of movement on the freeway that evening, March 2."

This looks like it really, really blows if you are a trucker. #DonnerSummit #blizzard #CAwx #snow #stranded

Interview with the guys hauling them out, it appears most of the truckers had NO CLUE they were about to be stranded, and that there was an incoming blizzard... ("unless they checked social media"). Apparently a lot of drivers don't speak English as a first language; seems to me there is a distinct need for multi-lingual warnings at Donner Summit.

Great photo of Donner Pass in the LA Times this morning. The camper truck on the left is actually a Caltrans vehicle, they park them up there with food and a coffee maker for the snow plow operators. #DonnerPass #blizzard #snow #CAwx

Curious what Google says if you punch in the Sacramento to Reno route tonight (answer is: you are not going over the Sierras without a plane).. #blizzard #snow #CAwx

ai6yr,
@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

Hmm, Google says the US-50. I have my doubts on how wise that would be. It says I can bicycle 17 hr 12 minutes up Dog Valley Road, however! 🤪 (ps. don't do that).

Google recommending Dog Valley Road for bicycling from Sacramento to Reno

Some guy just fishtailed across the freeway on the Hwy 50 at Ski Run camera. Recovered... but that must not have been great... at least not a head on. #blizzard #driving #CAwx #snow

@ai6yr @lckrohjr wonder if we'll get a snownado up there?

@mybarkingdogs @lckrohjr The snow swirls near Donner Summit last night were impressive (on traffic cam).

Man, bad situation earlier today near Meyers, CA. Multi-vehicle TC, at least one pedestrian hit--15 year old. Situation is still open with vehicles still on the roads. #blizzard #CAwx #injuries

Further down the road, ETA on a tow was FOUR hours. And someone needing winching. They're still on hold for ETA for a tow now -- call 3 hours later.

ke7zum,

@ai6yr OH god. Here it is so windy things are flying in my back yard. I'm about maybe 300 miles away from SoCal. Maybe the cough medicine I'm on is making me jumpy but right now I'm a bit scared.

The has finally arrived at . It's 26f and snowing very hard. Let's see if we get the 7 feet of promised snow.

CHP Truckee: "(03/02/24 at 8:30am)

I-80 remains closed at the Nevada state line and Colfax. Last night, we had a mass amount of vehicles stuck over Donner Summit and it took several hours for emergency personnel and tow trucks to reach motorists."

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

"At one point, emergency personnel and tow trucks had a difficult time getting to motorists due to blizzard conditions. @CaltransDist3
is currently evaluating the roads and we will be working on recovering vehicles left on the freeway after motorists were transported to a safe location. There is no estimated time of reopening the freeway, so we suggest you stay home. Stay warm and don’t put yourself and your family in a dangerous situation." #DonnerPass #DonnerSummit #snow #traffic #CAwx #CHP #truckee

Latest view of the peak... CHP unit making rounds looking for anyone stuck in a snowbank, LOL. #Blizzard #snow #truckee #tahoe #CAwx

One single vehicle, CHP, patrolling a closed freeway... lights are running with hazards.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

And it begins... traffic is stopped at Donner Summit, in the middle of a blizzard. #CAwx #blizzard #tahoe #DonnerSummit

Looks like party guests are getting out of their vehicles... I-80 at Castle Peak also stopped. #DonnerSummit #CAwx #blizzard

ai6yr,
@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org avatar

Ouch. Caltrans Quickmap shows traffic stopped entirely over the pass. Another area, 3 vehicles stuck in the road, and somebody abandoned their snowmobile in lanes. #DonnerSummit #CAwx #blizzard #snow https://quickmap.dot.ca.gov/

Report of snowmobile stuck, plus vehicles also stuck in the road.
