How do I learn a freight trains schedule? (lemmy.world) angielski

I just moved and I live literally window to a freight train line, unfortunately it scares the crap out of my cats and so I’m trying to find out what the schedule is so that I can close the windows for them, and maybe put a little raspberry pi display screen saying something like “next train arriving in…” Next to my...

Freight is definitely tracked but not necessarily scheduled in regular intervals. This is true for both trains and ships. Like it costs so much and the world isn’t always that consistent.

But yeah like cp/cn/CSX/ns/BNSF etc all know what’s on their lines and where.

However these lines are fully private unlike aviation so there is no requirement to publically provide any data.

For planes position data doesn’t even come from the airline but a govt mandated transponder that communicates on public frequency on the aircraft and private websites use a network of recieving radios donated or not spread across the world to provide the public with a service they also try to profit off of. This doesn’t exist for trains as far as I know. And I don’t think for ships either.

It’s no mistake that the NES/SNES were held onto for a long time. Literally some of the most popular consoles ever…much like the switch.

Switch lite and OLED version to extend it’s life and people ate that up. New buyers buying for the first time, old buyers re-buying the same console basically. Big Brain stuff.

The console ran at 60 on NTSC, and 50 for PAL. Divide by two to get the standard.

Imagine getting paid that much to ruin everything you touch.

Probably one of the best games I ever played. I came for the visuals because I finally got an RTX card and stayed for the halflife vibes.

It’s the closest thing I’ve played to OG halflife. You get that similar feel of isolation and heroism, a lot of WTF is going on, some weird entity that is omnipresent, great gun play and action, and is almost entirely indoors. Story is more robust like HL2 evolved the genre.

yeah at the time you were forced into it. the won servers were shut down and most peoples computers werent good enough to play CS and have this clunky software running in the background at the same time. it worked but alt-tabbing back then was a gong show and you definitely had the performance hit.

i played CS daily then so the first day was a shit show and I dont think I got much time in that day. mostly just trying to get connected…the servers were overloaded.
