I decided to re-download Trainz2019 recently and was apalled at the near total lack of freeware. Im so used to the steam workshop for other games which provide hundreds of different free mods, or even the BeamNG repository and its massive assortment of stuff. Thats what ive been used to for the entirety of the time ive been gaming. My favorite train sim previously was Rolling Line, which i have hundreds of hours on creating maps.

Now, onto Trainz 2019... Im seeing singular freight car mods being priced at 20$. Ive checked the freeware sections on K&L Trainz, and Trainz Forge, that stuffs decent. But its just total whiplash seeing the majority of decent mods being locked behind large paywalls. I really dont feel like paying 30$ or some shit for a singular digital item.

I understand that tons and tons of work and effort goes into creating mods, and i dont mind if they want to charge. But its just total whiplash. Even BeamNG creators who create mods (with hundreds of interchangeable parts and animations, mind you) only charge like 2$

Ive searched far and wide for more freeware but as i said there is a lack. Maybe im just a cheapskate, but it dampened my enthusiasm for getting back into Trainz. Every hobby i enjoy i feel as though im being priced out of. Cant even enjoy digital entertainment without having your wallet gutted for all its worth.

TLDR; i dont like payware

for the last few weeks ive had an uptick in random political community posts showing up on my feed. like, back-to-back political content just spammed onto my feed. I am not interested in politics and dont care about them. But its just an endless amount of content on my feed that i cannot get rid of even when i click 'Not Interested' the same channels keep showing up. Such as a channel called 'Robert Reich' (endless trump brainrot) and the 'Bernie Sanders' account. (even more trump brainrot), 'MeidasTouch' (even MORE trump brainrot) 'Micheal Fanone Show' (you guessed it.. more trump stuff) (all antitrump, but you get the point, i have no stance and just want to stop seeing his wrinkly face all over my feed)

Regardless of how many times i click 'not interested' it keeps showing up. I never click, comment, or like/dislike the posts, so theres no engagement. Its like all this content is being forced onto my feed. I assume its being funded or whatever to be pushed to as many users as possible and its so annoying.

i have no interest in politics or the president or the mindless political war on the internet, i just want the endless flow of it to stop showing up on my feed. I just wanna watch model train videos. I never watch political content or engage with it on YouTube.

Youtube needs a 'Block Channel' feature or a filter so users can block any content with certain keywords kinda like tumblr.

(please avoid arguing about politics in the comments, i have no stance, i am just stating my experience with it being forced onto my youtube feed)

its the 'if you werent convinced already...' thing all over again

So, I'm aware of the photos that he had taken where he did his suicide poses, but is it known if he actually did the 'pistol to the brainstem' shot as he had planned to do?

I heard in another thread, that he had placed the pistol in his mouth and shot through the roof of his mouth, which would line up with the bullet hole in the hat he had been wearing. I'm unsure about the awkward trajectory if he had shot himself in the back of the head aiming at the brainstem and the bullet somehow exited through the top of the hat. Also lines up with the hole in the ceiling above his body.

Is the shot placement known? Is it definitive on whether it was the brainstem, or the roof of the mouth?

I'm curious because we know he panicked when he heard the police cars arriving at the elementary, and that it was clear he really didn't want to be apprehended. Asking because i want to know more about this case, it is incredibly intriguing.
