Even though I rarely race myself these days, this kind of occasional feedback is the reason why I still keep offering advice to new drivers - even on as "toxic" of a platform as Reddit.
This is from a thread saying how much the SA rating in ACC sucks. Or maybe it doesn't suck after all?

Nice things about living in the middle of nowhere with very little light pollution...
These auroras were so bright tonight, that even though it was pitch black outside, I didn't need any lights to walk around the fields.
Was kind of testing my camera's limits, this was taken at ISO 12800.

How about a rule change for next season? As wet tyres are apparently useless as they can't be used when it actually rains, everyone just goes back to pits and changes the whole vehicle...

What about this pheasant death stare that obviously says I'd better give him everything he wants, or something bad is going to happen? 😏
Cropped from a photo I took at my front yard last week.

My take on @acassettocorsa.bsky.social (ACC) backend stability issues. Either Kunos or @505games.com should really start saying something about it.
I'm not afraid to be vocal and slam them to the ground when there's absolutely no word about recurring issues. Reddit's been full of complaints lately.

I really like games with pretty scenery. The nature photographer in me just can't leave locations like this without at least taking a screenshot.
And it of course helps that the game has plenty of things to do and explore too. This is from an open world survival game called #Soulmask.

We have all been new sim racers at some point, but when I saw this line in a clip and the question was basically "why did I crash here"...
I may have just made myself feel very uncomfortable by snorting my coffee out through my nose. 🤭

From the Stellaris stream on Paradox Interactive's official Twitch channel earlier today.
Everyone in the chat kept asking if they were Australian for some reason, but no, that wasn't it. They were just role-playing as "xeno-bats", which was the "race" chosen for that playthrough.
Brilliant! 😆

And that's a refund, due to extremely poor wheel support. Tbf it wasn't surprising after I saw the game specifically asking for a controller on startup.
It totally ignores steering lock settings both ingame and through Fanalab, so it's just pointless. And no, I'm not going to drive w/ keyboard.

Just an idea: Finland should buy the State of #Minnesota. Part of it is already literally called "Finland", and this area got it's name due to many of the early settlers being Finns.
Finland is split into 19 regions atm - this would round it up nicely to 20!
Disclaimer: This is obviously a joke.

Would you step into this plane if you were told what the callsign is in advance? 😂
This is one of the two real Finnish classics. The other one (which sadly no longer happens) is the "Finnair Flight 666 to HEL on Friday the 13th". Yes, that was a real thing, several times.

That took a while - full completion of Enshrouded.
This is actually the first Steam game I've ever gotten to 100%. Achievements being focused on quest completion and exploration of the whole world, instead of massive grinds, is one of the major reasons I did all of them.

So this was my decision for now.
I really don't care about a "quick fix" just to unlock cars, which was apparently a panic solution and most likely temporary, while the actual issue is still there.
Requiring online connectivity for purely offline gameplay is just always going to be bad design.

Roadmap shown in-game shows the 1.0 release being scheduled for "Fall 2025", and open world was said to be coming during summer.
So before full release. Based on that it should really be completely free.
100 cars, 15 tracks + free roam area sounds very decent if that's all included in the price.

At least the showroom in Assetto Corsa EVO looks pretty.
I just wish the basic things like setting up your driver profile actually worked. So I'll shelf the sim for now as I simply don't want to see myself as a "Driver 2934829847632987" in any kind of session.

In the context of whether TC and ABS should be used in ACC or not as someone coming from GT7 thought they aren't... Great reply - I didn't even think about that.
Reminded me of the farm life as a kid and driving a 1980s Massey Ferguson with separate brake pedals for rear wheels. The horrors...

Just randomly checked my Telegram privacy settings.
Option that would prevent messages from outside of the contact list (read: spam) is paywalled behind a paid subscription, and if the spammer pays for it the spam still comes through.
Privacy should be free. There are other features to monetize.

That feeling when your robot hoover gives you the middle finger through the cleaning map it generates... 🤭
I'm thinking about getting 2-3 more of these, of different colours, and let them have a race on the long hallway. It would probably be more entertaining than Formula 1 these past few years.

Now that's a very odd pricing scheme: Early Access only gives a 30% discount for the final release.
In this case EA costs 22.20€. The full game would have to be priced at 74€ for EA to be of equal value. No thanks, that feels scummy.
The game in question is a driving sim called Rev to Vertex.

This must be the weirdest streaming setup I have ever seen in my whole decade of being an active #Twitch user.
Yes, that's a vertical stream on Twitch filmed with a mobile phone, about a game that is running on a laptop with horizontal 16:9 aspect ratio.
No surprises on the viewrer count though.

Mouse broke. Bought a new one.
I really like how Razer Naga Pro automatically changes the profile based on which side panel you attach to it (2/6/12 buttons).
F13-F24 are great for custom binds, as they do exist, just not physically in any keyboard and they aren't used by default in any games. 🎮

State of the internet connections in the rural Finland today. Old wired connections such as xDSL have been dismantled, and fiber networks are not being built to replace them except for some busiest areas.
This is a 5G mobile broadband, at well over 6km distance from the mast. No complaints from me.
