(slaps forehead) Of course! People without AI glasses will miss out on all those free knuckle sandwiches that people with AI glasses will be offered everywhere they go!

The primary purpose of archive.is is to get around paywalls though. That’s the only thing I’ve ever seen it used for.

Very interesting article, thanks! I had wondered about this. The whole thing sounds pretty mysterious. Who knows, it could be Meta behind the curtains, lol! They’ve been known to resort to piracy to feed their AI.

archive.is probably next? It sounds like the same kind of tool.
- Comment on Smaller rally/racing games I recommend you try! 3 weeks ago:
Awesome post, thank you! I’m a huge fan of rally in general and bought Art of Rally pretty much when it was released. Here are some other cool driving and rally games that come to mind:
GeneRally 2: top-down arcade racer in early access, sequel to a popular freeware game from the early 2000s. It has a track editor and probably nice arcade physics like its precursor.
Driver: Playstation 2 title that lets you be the badass getaway driver of 70s movies. If you haven’t heard of this, it’s so good in terms of emulating those types of movie scenes.
Rally Trophy: rally sim that focuses on historic rally cars from the 60s and 70s, i.e., mostly 2WD and RWD.
Mobil 1 Rally Championship: rally sim that was known from what I recall for having realistic full-length stages of the real British Rally Championship. We’re talking 20, 30+ minute stages from what I remember reading. I think that this is really cool and wish that there would be more games like this. There used to be mods that fixed issues with some aspects of the physics on it.
Xpand Rally: it seems that one unique feature of this rally game was that it included a track editor so that you could edit the game’s stages or design brand new ones.
Finally, a game that’s not about driving at all, but about being a rally mechanic: Rally Mechanic Simulator. I just discovered this recently and it looks interesting.
Note: this thread is on the Steam Deck community but I’m not sure about the compatibility of any of these games with that. Check before buying.
