  I feel you, I’ve spent so long grinding drivers licenses and playing absurd cups like that. Unfortunately not many options, and even Motorsport was… meh.

  Project Cars 2 is a frequent recommendation, but it’s delisted. Then there’s mods for other games, like automobilista 2, but not official. I wouldn’t expect much from AC Evo either, with how the launch was basically online-mandated and the series not having much of career mode…

  I appreciate the post and the recommendations, but none of these games scratch the same itch that Forza Motorsport is meant to scratch.

  The alternatives are the competitors like ACC, Gran Turismo 7 or iRacing (possibly race room) - games focused on the realism and online competition.

  Fake news. Remember, TACO.

  Exactly my question. More often than not, I’d wager on AI making the right call instead of the arrogant, power tripping blabbering dimwit who got to CEO because he’s got absolutely no scruples or morals and absolutely zero shame and will sacrifice anything for his goal of hoarding more wealth.

  It probably has less hallucinations.

  Yeah but at what point does it just become a pc with a controller…

  If you have to rile the audience to be funny, you’re not funny.

  But there is a “gray option” here. I read this as “you can rile up the audience and be funny, just not if that’s the only thing you do”, in context with the previous point that this sort of humour is overused and loosing its impact.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the Hamas/Israel war, why does Palestine have "hostages" but Israel has "prisoners"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This isn’t the reason, it doesn’t matter if Hamas accuses them or not.

  They’re considered hostages because Hamas wants to release them in exchange for something.

  Israel imprisons Palestinian as a punishment or to achieve specific goals that are not met by releasing them (like preventing political prisoners from engaging with society).

  I don’t think either term is morally superior to the other, but they do have some different connotations…
