We use paper ballots in Germany as well. It’s a good method to keep elections transparent - paper ballots can theoretically be counted and evaluated by anyone.

Voting machines are a black box that you have to trust the manufacturer presents accurate results.

Thanks. I mean, its not your fault, you just used the original title.

With happened to putting the game’s title, “The Day Before”, in quotes?

I wouldnt know

I can not tell you, how much I thought the same. It sounds like an answer filled with as many buzzwords you can think of, made up by some random as a joke, moking such answers. Then I saw the username highlighted in blue, indicating it was OP.

I am still not sure of it’s just a mocking answer, tbh.

Even if you are a EU citizen, apple will remove your ability to sideload if you leave the EU for an extended period (I dont recall if it is 30 or 90 days)

Probably just a troll farming for clown awards.

FH4 is only 4 dollars

What country do you live in? For me it’s currently $/€14 in the regular version, 20 for the deluxe ultimate edition.

Also note that the game will be getting delisted in december, so now might be the last chance to get it at a discount.

High-level TrackMania players use keyboards, not gamepads or, god forbid, racing wheels.

It’s wild to me that some players like GranaDyy are actually able to compete using a racing wheel.

Favourite racing game is always highly dependent on what I am looking for.

Forza Motorsport 4 (Not Horizon) was one of the best racing simcades i’ve enjoyed playing, it has solid sim-ish racing and it is very satisfying to build up a garage and take a car for a spin on some of the gorgeous original or real life racetracks. Unfortunately, it’s an xbox 360 exclusive and not backwards compatible on xbox one or series x, so not really playable on current systems. I am stll looking for a similar experience on a modern pc.

I also enjoy “Project Cars” and it’s sequel “Project Cars 2”. I can easily play the games on my current PC or the Steam Deck, but the game can be challenging on a gamepad - not impossible, but managable. It does lack some beautiful original tracks as it only features real life circuits and it does lack the satisfaction of having to “earn” and build up a collection of cars and making them your own. Unfortunately, both games have been delisted on storefronts and can no longer officially be purchased, but if you can get your hands on a PC Key, you can still enjoy the games on a modern system.

If I want to enjoy some sim racing, I’ll go with Assetto Corsa or Assetto Corsa Competizione. Great fun with a steering wheel, not really my thing with a gamepad. Modding possibilities for AC are basically endless on PC, but again, lacking some sort of progression system that will allow you to build up a car collection.

Forza Horizon 3 with its Hot-Wheels Expansion was probably my favourite open-world arcade racer, unfortunately it’s also delisted, and while I still have the physical xbox one version, that means I can’t play it on PC. Forza Horizon 4 (with the Lego expansion) is the next best thing (still far better than FH5) and is still available on PC, but will also be delisted in december (grab FH4 while you still can!)

I have also spent a lot of time playing Burnout Paradise, but I still prefer Burnout Revenge over it’s younger open-world brother.

Wreckfest is a great spiritual succesor to the already great Flatout 1/2 and certainly the best banger racer you can currently get. The damage model is very convicing and it’s good fun to wreck some CPU racers.

BLUR - an underrated battle racer, with a really fun 4 player splitscreen. Calling it “Mario Kart with real cars” is, imho a bit too simple, but it does get the point across quite well.

Need For Speed: Most Wanted (2005) - early 2000s yellow/brown tinted aesthetics aside, the game still looks good today and police chases can go on forever. Great fun.

Not a racing game, but a honorable mention: American/Euro Truck Simulator 2, bought it as a joke back then, but it does feel cathartic at times.

There will never be a “Risk of Rain 3”

Looks like the RoR IP belongs to Gearbox.

Or just click the link and get in a few hours of a cyber security seminar. It can be a chance from your regular job.

Mine is a Mercedes, but I have observed this on most cars around here that are younger than ~5 years. Just today when biking to work, almost any newer Mercedes, BMW, VW or Skoda didn’t have a model badge on the back. KIA and Hyundai were like 50/50.
The exception for BMW seems to be their electric vehicles, which were all badged with their model.

Also something I have noticed is that “performance badges” (AMG, STI, M, GTI etc.) don’t seem to be affected by this - they often remain on the car.

My car doesn’t have the model or engine size written on the back either, this is not exclusive to Tesla (although, depending on the make it might be an option to remove it when buying a car).

The manufacturer badge is usually enough, in my opinion. If you can’t identify the model on the spot, as long as you can identify the brand and want to learn about the specific model you saw, you’ll hit their website or dealership and identify it there. And with a brand like Tesla, that only has 5 fairly distinct models, it should be fairly easy to retroactively point out the model you saw - compared to a brand like BMW for example.

Lots of people recommend Arch

Arch really is a hands-on distro. Installing it can feel like an accomplishment and a learning experience, but particularly when you have other people using the system, you might be better off with a less hands-on distro like manjaro (which is based on arch) or mint (based on ubuntu).

Mind you, even when using manjaro, you are legally not allowed to say “I use Arch, btw”.

come closer, and maybe i’ll tell you.

Personally, I am going to stick with KDE - my main PC has 256GiB of memory (It’s a 2016 CAD workstation that I stuck a GTX 1080 in), so I really don’t care that much about memory. But even on my lower end bay-trail lenovo tablet, KDE doesn’t seem much worse than XFCE and by sticking with KDE, I don’t have to “learn” both Desktop environments. KDE came with it’s own drop-down terminal called Yakuake, btw. But I want to use the terminal as little as necessary.

At first I installed Arch on my main rig, but I then decided to switch to manjaro because I am worried that Arch might be a bit more “volatile” when it comes to updates than a more “stable” distro like manjaro.

My first experience with Linux was 15 years ago, when I switched to ubuntu Linux as my Laptop OS for 2 years, and within the first week of installing it, I saw the words “uninstalling gnome-desktop” appear during a distro-upgrade, and being a linux noob, reinstalling my system afterwards seemed to be the quicker sollution to the system rebooting to a shell only. I’d prefer that not happening again.

Just say that you enjoy edging, we don’t judge.

Just two weeks ago, I switched over my main PC, my Laptop and my Lenovo Miix 2 to Manjaro Linux.

This was single-handedly my doing is what I am trying to say.

We should also switch to middle-out to optimize data.
