One thing I love about the “reddit is fun” app is that I wasn’t even aware that avatars existed until I saw some posts/memes about them. And I still don’t ever have to see them.

Funny, I saw a reddit post a few days back praising MCC, specifically mentioning the lack of MTX. Of course 343 monitors social media; maybe they saw it and thought “oh shit that’s right! We can add it to MCC!”

Marini with another solid ride, and Digia with another fantastic one. I know Bezz has been the more attention-grabbing rookie but Digia is doing so much right already.

Krafton invoked all the right buzzwords for its Ana news, writing in a press release that “ANA is designed to engage a global audience and help establish KRAFTON’s Web 3.0 ecosystem” that will “attract the interest and popularity of Gen Z” through music and a foray into influencer-dom.

You can still get internet-related books, such as:

Since I’m a fanboy of sci-fi settings in general, I’m pretty optimistic for this. The planet spread reminds me a lot of Mass Effect, with many planets being functionally useless other than a couple resources. I’m fine with that, I don’t need an ocean with all the depth of a puddle.

Replies like this one are my favorite part of these announcements. Just how triggered you people get. I bet you use the word snowflake unironically, right?

And now it can get into the FRONT of a vehicle?? Unbelievable.

Love the video your son took of the exhaust. Genuine happiness when hearing it!

I think the USB people moonlight as the WEC naming committee.

I love Aleix and this was so hard to watch. I remember Rins doing similar in Moto3 but it just doesn’t happen in the premier class. Especially at his home race, was clearly gut-wrenching for him to do that. I hope it doesn’t affect him too much for the rest of the season, but he’s dealt with so many setbacks during…

I thought it was a dessert!

Well that’s definitely something you can technically do with your money.

“Hey, we’re finalizing the design of our brand new, super-expensive international-motorsports-level race complex. How many roads do we need to handle potentially over 100,000 fans for a race?”

Perception is reality for taste. If someone believes that white tastes different, it’s as good as actually tasting different (for them).

I don’t trust my state to do much right, and Miami even less, so I’m pleasantly surprised to hear it wasn’t a complete shitshow. All sounds pretty standard to deal with at a race, and I know you have a ton more experience with them than I do. And there’s only so much a large venue can do to combat our summer weather.

Whoever laid out the traffic route for COTA should be forced to drive that shit every day for the rest of their lives. Even for the MotoGP race we attended, which is way smaller compared to F1, it was a cluster.

It had more stages than the standard race, and the winners of each stage secured restart positions near the front of the field — but only if they’d finished a different stage in a particular place.

I expected it to be a typical Heated Gamer Moment™ but uhhh.... holy shit. That was so much worse.
