Well, but they involve themselves with mods quite a bit: https://www.beamng.com/resources/

Because Beamng runs their own mod repository which is even accessible ingame. This isnt about some random mod hosted on a randrom 3rd party site. This mod was released and distributed over servers and a services which Beamng as a company runs themselves. So reading a whole ass month after the incident my system and my passwords were potentially compromised fucking sucks. I’m not blaming them that the mod got uploaded. I’m blaming them that they made no attempts to publicly communicate: “yo, a mod containing malware got uploaded to our service and 3000 users downloaded it before we got informed that it was infected. If you happen to have downloaded the mod in x timeframe your system was likely compromised. Sorry yadda yadda”

I had the mod installed in the timeframe were it had the malware. Fuck me.

But what really pisses me off is that i read about it first here on lemmy. Not on the Beamng forums/repository, not in the game, not in the steam announcments of the game. Like you distributed malware over your platform and the policy of you fucks is just to stay silent? Meh.

tbh i dont care what theoretically is written in law. what i care about are the fuckers who light up the 200m infront of them with their led lights and with that burn up my corneas. everyday multiple times. dont get me wrong, led lights are awesome. i use them myself. but there are too much assholes who only think about them self. even if with 30km/h you certainly dont need the visibility of cars full bright.

am i overreacting? maybe. idk. but these fuckheads drive me mad everyday.

stop! badly adjusted way too bright bike lights are the most hated things in my life. i have nothing left but spite for them. i’m activily holding myself back right now. i could sputter nonsensical insults for hours because of them. One time i started to carry a stupid bright flash light with myself just to blind them fuckers back. since then i grown up. but awfafhasifhaoshfoahgoiahsdoigasddfafas asfdda fuck

true, if you’re in the driver seat these lights are awesome. I worked as a driver for a few years. Mostly in old shitboxes but sometimes i had the chance drive these modern marvels of technology. no doubt its way better for your eyes and concentration if you are in the driver seat. but for anybody else its just soooo bad. even if you steer a vehicle with fancy LEDs the other car with LEDs will blind you. but as a pedestrian, on a bicycle or in a shitbox they just straight up fuck up your cornea.

no need to get personal.

i’m still amazed how these fucking lights got through regulation in germany. ‘everything’ is regulated here. but these blinding pieces of shit got through. i know the answer: money. as in cars, the crown jewel of the german economy. i hate them sooooooo much.

and thats why you fold over the end. with that you also realize you’ve become old and like your dad. but thats life i guess.
