I was curious so I checked on one of my clients. I have a few with a few different settings but this is my oldest still running.

All I’m going to say is that the wind can blow me (although most of the time it blows against me, so…)

I’m not entirely sure but it always seems like a in-game time of day thing to me. In one of my worlds I used to leave to swamps in the morning and return at nightfall and that would put the wind on my side but if I reversed the times the wind would be against me.

Sakychu, do gaming w Valheim Sailing Mechanics

Just like in real life you should know about how to sail against the wind aka tacking: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tacking_(sailing)

saloe,

Oh I know about tacking and do that as much as I can, but still find it curious that the wind is always the exact opposite of my intended course lol

CaptSoulBeard,

Extra play time

Sakychu,

Ah gotcha!

SaltyIceteaMaker,

You put me into a rabbit hole to wich I can’t find the answer… that being what are the physics behind tacking

Sakychu,

I am not entirely sure about the English names for the parts of a boat but I try my best: the Boat always tries moves towards where the bow is pointed because of the keel below the ship which acts like a guide rail because it creates a path of less resistance. And the hull makes it very hard to much it left and right. So even though the wind comes from a 45° the shape translates that in mostly forward movement and a little bit of sideways movement. Like a toy car you are stepping on: you are acting as a downwards force but the wheels translate it to forward movement. I hope that somewhat gives you a bit more insight!

BLK241,

Good explanation. Another way to think about it is with modern sails and hull design it’s more like a wing. The sail above the water is the more obvious wing shape, and with some designs that use a centerboard or daggerboard that is like the other half of a wing turned on its side. With water having more drag than air, the centerboard is the continued wing shape under the water only shorter.

SaltyIceteaMaker,

That actually made me understand it fully. thanks!

Actually from what I remember from a reddit thread a while back, someone did the math and rowing against wind seems to be faster on average in valheim in any case except if you're in the storm or sth like that. It feels slower cuz its a boring slow line but it ends up being faster

Some further evidence from playing just now. My friend was sailing the ship and the wind was at our backs, he had to take a phone call so I took over and the moment I sat down the wind abruptly spun around 180 degrees and is blowing in my face. Aaaaaaaaaa

Kiosade,

Yep, i’m pretty sure they programmed it that way on purpose just to make one of the powers you get later seem more useful.

… however after many hours in the game I started just using mod commands to make the wind go whatever direction I wanted, just like in Windwaker.

Goblin_Mode,

just to make one of the powers you get later seem more useful

I want moder power to be useful so fucking bad dude. Last time I played I tried living on a little island that I terraformed into a small fort that rises out of the water, my only way to come or go with ore was by boat and I STILL never used it.

Despite being in literally the most optimal use case for having it that power just feels so lack luster. It would be wayyyyy better if it was just like a passive effect that made RNG better or half cool down or something. As it is I’d rather just use bonemass or Deer since they are more universally applicable

There’s nothing more annoying than an end of level/game boss that has a non skippable monologue before the final battle.

They’re blabbing away and your just mashing the buttons desperate at having another crack at trying to defeat them.

I’ve never had any need, except for audiobooks. Getting into myanonymouse is just a case of knowing the rules and passing a wee test. Maybe start there?

Are there good audiobook trackers? I’ve used audiobookbay and haven’t failed to get a book I want so far

athos77,

Myanonamouse.

dditty,

I recently joined myanonamouse and it’s working great so far. The only thing I haven’t figured out yet is how to make my qbitttorrent + vpn docker container accessible for seeding.

das,
@das@lemellem.dasonic.xyz avatar

You need to use a VPN that supports port forwarding, such as PIA, and qbittorrent needs to get set to use that port.

dditty,

I’m using PIA and qbitttorrent is set to use that port. I also forwarded the port in my router, but myanonamouse wouldn’t show me as online/connectable.

das,
@das@lemellem.dasonic.xyz avatar

Don’t forward the port in your router, it’s not required and is just adding a vulnerable entry point into your network.

You can use a port checker tool to see if the port you are using is open (using the VPN IP). If it’s just myanonamouse that’s not recognising it, I recommend asking for help on there :)

Mr_Blott,

I followed this guide cos the others were too confusing! - www.myanonamouse.net/userhistory.php?action=viewp…

dditty,

I’m logged into my account but it says permission denied when I click that link 🤷‍♂️

nestEggParrot,

You dont have send it in. Just taste your own on a video call. Safe and private.

AzzyDev,

It’s a good idea to start with MAM since they have interviews twice a week, and you can access invites for other trackers in the forums once you get to vip (which requires 4 weeks of membership, and a ratio above 2.0)

One of the nicer things about it is that you can gain bonus points (which is how you buy extra upload credit and VIP) just by being an available seed. Due to the shear number of books on the site, you won’t be seeding often, but they make it desirable to keep it available in case someone needs it by giving you a certain number of bonus points per hour depending on various factors.

That’s a lot of work. I can’t imagine putting that much effort into downloading, not when Usenet doesn’t require anything but a couple dollars a month.

iHUNTcriminals,

What’s a good Usenet?

Pulp,

Mr_Blott,

*Uploading, and that’s why you wouldn’t get an invite for a private tracker

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

No, that’s why I wouldn’t even ask for one. No point wasting so much time tending a ratio when I’ve got a faster experience that doesn’t require me to do anything, and doesn’t depend on random strangers to work.

Pulp,

Open signups/interviews then climb up the ladder.

Appoxo,
@Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

opensignup pages like r/opensignups (now retired) but there are alternatives online, the AvistaZ/CinemaZ/PrivateHD discord has surprise invites and usually they open around christmas and/or black friday.

    You haven't even named a single one and might as well not have wasted time posting your useless fucking comment.

    For everyone else, here's one: https://1337x.to/

    LastYearsPumpkin,

    Careful, because 1337 had a recent scandal with Baldars Gate having a crypto malware in it and there was some involvement with the admins on that.

    Seems fine with media, but careful using it for actual executables.

    As with any exe from a non-official online source.

    MantidSys,
    @MantidSys@kbin.social avatar

    That was a >100gb download that took the moderators time to download and test. And the admins weren't involved. All the claims of admins backing the torrent or deleting comments has had zero proof, as it was all hysteria drummed up by the psychotic cracker called Empress, who has had a long standing imaginary feud with 1337x.

    1337x can have malware in anything, as anyone can upload. The volunteer moderators downloaded and tested it as soon as they could. I'm sorry some people downloaded it faster, but there's no conspiracy here.
