question, why do the letter d’s in this image look like that? is it just the font or is there something cool about them

Oho! So, this is Cymru Wales Sans, a custom typeface used by the Welsh Government for all tourism-related stuff, such as Visit Wales and Transport for Wales.

The fun-looking characters - mostly the digraphs, otherwise known as double letters - are based on old handwritten manuscripts, and also take inspiration from other languages.

Basically, they're by no means officially used in standard Welsh writing; it's just a fun nod to the Welsh of old, and helps really establish a sense of Welshness even when writing in English. So that's why I used it in that image!

However, I do take issue with some webpages using the typeface far too liberally in every piece of writing; it's not the most accessible of fonts (especially the stylised "ð" representing "d"), and it loses its impact when it's used outside of headers and simple signage. But I digress!

And yes, I just... happen to have a copy of the typeface. Let's not think about it too much.

[starving-little-orphan-boy]

woah, that’s cool. follow up question: in that example of the font, the Ll digraph only has an uppercase version, and the dd digraph only has a lowercase version. does Ll only ever appear at the start of words? does dd only ever appear in the middle/end?

[textpostscymraeg]

Well spotted! Yes, digraphs follow the same rules as any other letter - if it's in the middle or the end of the word, "Ll" becomes "ll", while "dd" only becomes "Dd" at the start of a sentence, or if it's a proper noun.

I imagine they just couldn't think of a fun stylistic way of representing the digraphs in all forms, or maybe the typeface was just starting to get a little bit too busy with all the stylised choices!

boston driving advanced tech guide

you've probably already noticed that turn signals ("blinkahs") don't serve their usual function here - a common saying on the server is that using them as intended is just giving information to your enemies. you may be tempted to conclude that these "blinkahs" are useless. not so! they are exclusively used for parrying cars audacious enough to think they can just drive past you. the timing is a five-frame window beginning when you can first see the approaching car in your sideview mirrors. simply engage your blinkah and then immediately jump out in front of your opponent. if you get the timing right, you will build super meter. if you're too early, you've accidentally performed a safe traffic maneuver, resetting your meter to 0. if you're too late, you crash and may have to transition to direct PvP, which is outside the purview of this guide.

yellow lights can also be parried by running them, with the amount of super gained determined by how far you make it through the intersection before the light turns red. the ideal window you're aiming for here is between your front and back wheels crossing the white line

you can use your super meter to cast a variety of spells to hinder your opponents. popular meter-efficient spells include mainstays such as "Summon Double-Parked Uber Eats Driver", "Line-Skipping Merge", and "Greater Unmarked Cop". if you max out your meter, you can cast the legendary "Power Word: Storrow".

the super meter system works differently for bikes. obviously, since they lack blinkahs and run red lights anyways, they can't build super in any of the normal ways. instead, they build it up passively, since their very existence enrages every driver around them. to offset this, the spell list for bikes is a lot lower-power than the spell list for cars, mostly being focused on mobility or utility instead of offense (although there are some notable exceptions like "U-Lock Missile"). the capstone spell for bikes is, of course, "Post Misleadingly Edited GoPro Footage On Reddit".

Quincy is a PvP-enabled zone.

The path of the MBTA leads to many spells which drivers consider unnatural. Even a fraction of our power gives riders access to “slow,” “psychic screech,” and “Time stop.” With enough training an MBTA rider can access powers like “bustitution” and “red sox game” bringing the whole city to a halt.

If you are in Victoria, do NOT vote for the party named "Free Palestine" at the November Elections.

I repeat:

DO NOT VOTE FOR THE PARTY NAMED "FREE PALESTINE" AT THE NOVEMBER ELECTIONS.

This is NOT a legit party.

Avi Yemini, an Australian Isra*li commentator who served in the IOF registered the party name and has stated over the last few months of his intent to use this name to "trick" people into voting for it so he can redirect votes to the far right.
