I'm sick of this overliberalized world with GDPR, political correctness, 21st century first world problems, negro/turkish/arabian European "national" football teams and the fade of classic European/American culture...

What's this, "ah, the good old days"? Getting old and conservative?

The 21st century can bring its problems on, but people need to work on fixing them, instead of closing doors and pretend they are not there. Some old days were good for some people, but it turns out it was a minority, and often at the expenses of others. Some rebalancing is going to happen, and you can be responsive, and maybe help direct the change, or defensive and have no say in the process.

I added a text meta-data format... and it can both read and write!  I had to do text binary parsing, which I'm not a fan of, but the result is good. So, when you save a track in one-file mode (with overlaid meta-data), that's still binary, but if you split it, you can choose the meta-data file to be text or binary.

Oooh, I like that! Now, I see why you want to support UTF-8, nice ;)

I would say "stay away from UTF-8", unless you have a library that deals with it or a lot of spare time and nothing else to do :)

I might have an idea before, but seeing the superkart in third position makes me very uncertain now :)

I was 14th in Z224, but my stats are like I didn't raced it...

This bug should be fixed now! That problem was that 0.09 != 0.09000000000000001 :o

Hey... not sure how good or bad is my article, but this is my first attempt. What do you think?

Haha, sorry for taking a whole day to remember about the quiet replays! :)  Luckily the corrections should be minimal. Just send me the article by PM when you're happy!

I can almost see him speed up.

Definitely a speed up there, but I hope they managed to hit Esc in time, because the landing doesn't look good.

Could it be some sort of a draft?

Looks good to me, thank you very much! ;D

If you have any other suggestions for ways to keep pipsqueaks up to date and on time, let me know though, I think it's an area where we need to improve.

Bump ;)

Please do! I thought I would post something short anyway, to fill the void, but did not talk much about the race itself :)

Is there a guest article for ZCT224?

I have not received one, but given the situation around the old continent in the past weeks, I'm not expecting the schedule to follow Swiss standards. I did remember to write a post though! 8)

No rush. The scoreboard is not in a hurry right now.
Actually, if someone could overtake Overdrijf, it would make debugging the LTB issue easier :P

Actually, it's the distance completed by bike in 2020 (the same in Akoss Poo's signature).

Ooooh, that's quite good. I'm just above 400km, mostly commuting, but since I'm stuck home the number won't improve for some time :(
