 philipp | Give me 5 minutes | 19:51:22 |
| philipp | I propose the keyword nixrl, that should be both unique and short enough. | 19:55:27 |
 ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | hmm what about @nixrl | 19:59:51 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | so it's obvious we're pinging people | 20:00:17 |
| philipp | Sounds reasonable. | 20:00:36 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | okay, cool | 20:01:02 |
| philipp | infinisil: Are you coming? | 20:13:45 |

|  Cannon joined the room. | 00:16:58 |
 davidak | does Borderlands 2 work for you on steam? it crashes directly for me. it works with proton tho | 03:13:36 |
 ar|m | the "linux native" version of borderlands 2 was using outdated userland libraries even at launch | 07:41:03 |
| philipp | And iIrc they also just ship an ancient version of the game at this time. I think using proton is the better choice for that game. | 09:16:04 |
| Cannon changed their display name from NixCannon to Cannon. | 15:52:30 |
| Cannon changed their profile picture. | 15:52:47 |
| Cannon left the room. | 16:13:57 |

| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | philipp: btw i started training car control on the steam workshop rings map and i just ranked up to plat 2 | 22:34:12 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | im not very good yet but i feel a lot more confident in the air than i was | 22:35:29 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | i hadnt tried the rings map because i figured i needed to practice other stuff and it was too high level for me, but being able to control my car from any angle is definitely a skill i needed | 22:37:04 |
| philipp | Cool! Good job! Maybe I should also do that a little. | 22:41:30 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | i really recommend it! it helps a lot for tricky aerials and wall stuff i think | 22:43:15 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | im challenging myself to eventually be able to start using air roll in my aerials | 22:43:47 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | i only started doing the rings map yesterday and i can already see a lot of improvement. i was almost able to get thru level 7 of the map | 22:45:08 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | what i've been doing is i go through the levels i can, and when i get stuck on a part i practice just hovering in the air and hitting air roll left/right when i'm getting comfortable | 22:46:34 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | i just keep hitting air roll more often until i mess up | 22:47:15 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | i did about 30 mins yesterday and today | 22:47:48 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | when i started yesterday i could barely hover with the car facing backwards from the camera, now i can do it from any angle but i mess up sometimes with wild roll or camera movement | 22:49:30 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | really surprised at my rate of improvement tbh | 22:50:04 |
 jonringer | yea, if you really want to improve your mechanics, doing some of the workshops or custom training is good. When I was trying to get into champ, I would do 1-2 warm up rounds before bplaying | 23:05:52 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | i've been doing mostly free play and custom training for warmup but not workshop maps | 23:06:35 |
| ash (it/its) 🏳️⚧️ | clearly that was the wrong move | 23:07:15 |
