I'm sure everyone is sick of hearing this by now, but if you like audio about audio... I do a longform discography show with my buds @aismail.xyz and @pizzadinosaur.fineti.me over at @silentdiscographer.com and we are almost done working through R.E.M.'s entire catalogue in depth.
Cramming for tomorrow

What you’re saying is, of the nuclear weapons

We should take them all away
We should take them all away
The ones shoved in their face
Also, Reiko is from Rage

*As far as beating the AI, that applies more to Daytona 2 than 1. The Daytona 1 AI is much weaker in my experience. Daytona 2 and Scud Race I struggle to win, because I usually drive auto. (And because Scud Race physics are verrrrry slippery)

Yeah I'd say you can 100% drift and experience...what drifting feels like in Daytona 1 and 2 on AT, by braking.

Will you set amazing times or even beat the AI in most cases? Heck no. But I don't think the cars necessarily feel different beyond the point of grip depending on transmission.

Spent a decade-plus building a new brand just to kneecap it with some pointless delineation between...hypercars and race cars based on road cars? WEC and everything else? I can't make heads or tails of this. As ever, marketing is its own worst enemy.

I almost bought some kind of one-time sale Office version from a few years ago back in November because it was cheap. Glad I just downloaded Libre instead, MS doesn’t deserve the cash

That was literally two years ago so yeah I’d be peeved too
