I went to see a doctor today because I've been having diarrhea and bleeding for 2 months, based on my symptoms and the test results he thought I probably have ulcerative colitis but need to get a colonoscopy soon to confirm it. Will call the clinic tomorrow to schedule it. I also got a prescription for prednisolone so that should hopefully help with the symptoms a lot. I haven't been able to sleep or focus on anything because I need to go to the bathroom like every 2-3 hours. Can't wait to get a full night's sleep again.
Elite Dangerous is the most un-fun game I've spent 1500+ hours on. I want to love it but the developers' actions, or lack thereof, makes it difficult. The game has so much potential the devs won't or can't take advantage of for some reason.
It's all fun and games until you end up stuck on an ancient spaceship billions of lightyears from home because you accidentally blew up the planet.
Rivian CEO should keep his mouth shut until a few grand gets you a used compact electric hatchback (VW Polo or similar) with a decent battery.
It's cheap and reliable.
It's not just about speed and acceleration. It's also about control. Racing drivers face an infinite number of different conditions out on the track and it would be impossible to tune the transmission in such a way that it does exactly what the driver wants 100% of the time. And it really has to be perfect. 99.9% isn't good enough because the other 0.1% can wreck the car if it does something unexpected while driving at the limit.
Modern, high end race cars are automatics.
No, they're sequential manuals*. Unless you're talking about drag racing, where automatics are common.
*Edit: Or they can also be sequential semi-automatics if you want to be extra pedantic. But personally I'd classify a transmission based on whether the driver has to select the desired gear, or if the computer selects the appropriate gear without driver input, because that's the thing that matters in the end.
I have history turned on and it generally recommends stuff I'm interested in. My only complaint is that it doesn't update often enough and likes to recommend videos I've seen already.
Yep. 27, Finland. I learned on a manual (in the EU, if you learn on an automatic, you're restricted to automatics only until you pass the driving exam in a manual) and drove manuals until a few years ago when my late grandma's health started declining and her car got passed down to us because she could no longer drive.

It's great if you have a decent framerate to start with, but it really struggles at lower framerates and you'll get a lot of ugly artifacts if there's any rapid movement on screen.
