@TylerDDevRant yeah bullshit train system that has no wifi (used to for a small period of time) or automatic doors (dumbasses though manuals doors were a good idea) now we get an announcement PRESS GREEN BUTTON TO OPEN DOOR lol there are two buttons (red button) and people still fail.
I just don't know man I just don't know. -
@f03n1x
I get your frustration.
Even here in Germany, a whole lotta trains still running without wifi...
Be gentle respecting people who still fail to hit the green button.
There is a part of every population who has trouble with genetic red-green recognition ;) -
@TylerDDevRant yeah it's just there is an announcement every single stop :/
We also used​ to have automatic doors, which meant no user area, we also had no news about some sort of door accident so I have no clue why they changed it to manual.
The train system in New Zealand just got an upgrade to electric trains, and I honestly wished it be great but the announcements are set to max volume and the whole open carriage design echoes the sound, not to mention to many speakers.
:/ Top it off the ticketless system(paper tickets still exist they just make the prices about twice the amount) is flawed, because stations aren't closed off like I guess every other country lol, people hop on one stop and hope off another.
I guess my bad about the color recognition bit, we just don't ever use that red button, the train conductors even use a different set of buttons. -
@TylerDDevRant never ever was in a DB train that had WiFi... Or air condition...
Had an awesome day at work got so much coding done, made an awesome well documented class for a Countdowntimer class in Android.
Was looking forward to getting home and using my motivation to continue coding my game when I got home.
Then get to the bus stop and it's packed for the Adele concert, I saw a poster okay thats good only buses are packed (I then take a train, I live pretty far from work) I get to the train station and the shittiest system has been setup,
Where people pack on the train that goes to the last stop south for the Adele concert that isn't even near the last stop!
One of the platforms aren't even being used and the trains that got partway south are tiny as hell for the rest of the people that don't want to go to this concert.
For one thing who thought it was a good idea to setup such a shitty system? Why not have one train go straight to the damn concert area and continually use that one platform and for the rest of the people have the trains running as normal?
Nope let's make a shitty system that doesn't work well.
Top it off have concerts on a Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
Dumbasses.
Now I get to wait in town doing absolutely nothing and losing the little time I have to code on my game.
