I haven't watched any of the trial, not just the closing arguments. I mean it sounds like the defense bungled the entire thing. If Kyle is found not guilty, it will have nothing to do with the defense, and comes down entirely to how ridiculous it is he's even in this predicament. I played some...

I haven't watched any of this trial, but from reading your comments and Twitter commentary, it sounds like his defense was fucking terrible. Probably as bad as the prosecution. The only saving grace for Kyle is that the case is such a joke against him that it's incredibly hard to fuck up. And...

Honestly, there's not much besides things like commodities, real estate, cryptocurrency or metals. With interest rates so low, it makes everything else kind of shit. It's also (at least in my opinion) why the stock market keeps going up and up. With nowhere else to put your money, it all ends...

Isn't the burden of proof always on the prosecution? Innocent until proven guilty?

This might be one of the truest things ever said in a movie thread. This movie went hard on the Wilhelm screams. It was a decent popcorn flick, but as said, you really have to turn your brain off.

Teenagers aren't usually eligible for unemployment, hence why there's no correlation there. In fact, if you look at the labor participation charts, they're the only group that's back to pre pandemic levels of employment. Mostly because it's their only source of income.

I'm not sure if it's all in my head, but I feel like I'm definitely winning by a lot more with manual shifting. I'm not sure why, since the game seems to do really well at up shifting (it obviously never down shifts unless you brake, hit something, or just let off the accelerator completely)...

The problem is they just ignore that shit. Like with New World where problems persisted from early alpha into release. Game developers just got lazy. Or their leadership is dog shit.

I think I just did a rewind on the jump and tried again and got it. I finally tried to make things a bit harder and turned ABS off and went with manual shifting. Didn't like how braking without ABS felt though, so turned that back on. Manual shifting made the game take so much more...

It's amazing how many AAA type games are just complete coding disasters, not to mention just unfinished. Like just in a month we had New World and this. It seems to be the new normal, and it's likely because like you said, people keep buying them. And worse, excusing it.

Doesn't surprise me one bit. I've put tens of thousands of rounds down range, just out of sheer luck to be in a unit that had almost unlimited ammo (I've probably put more MK19 and RPG rounds down range than most people have shot the firearms in their own homes). Even under ideal circumstances...

Finished all the season events finally, outside of Arcade which is a shit show, and the dailies. The difference between say, unbeatable drivatars and the average ones I've been going against seems pretty slim. I actually don't quite understand the difficulty settings because they seem almost...

I tried several. Lotus Exige, Audi TT, and finally, Subaru BRZ Every single time on that first race, the AI would take off like they had a 1 second 0-60 and I'd never catch up (the top 3-4 cars would end up with a 10-20 second lead). What ended up working for me was driving like a reckless...

As someone who never read the book nor ever watched anything Dune related, and even went into this blind without watching a trailer, I really enjoyed it. It was a bit confusing at times, mostly due to lots of whispering dialogue and then scenes where they switched from English to whatever made...

Except no one will really care. He's just some stranger to nearly everyone. Is anyone taking about Chauvin still? Nope, he's just rotting away alone in prison.

Really enjoyed this one before they even got to the review part. This is one I remember watching as a kid, but I don't apparently remember much about it because their synopsis and the scenes they showed didn't seem familiar.

So I finally got around to the Horizon Open and that was pretty darn fun. The loading times waiting for other players kind of sucks though. Think I finished 5th. Some of the guys who got first were just lightyears ahead of everyone else. Feel like that'd be one that's a lot of fun with a group...

Ended up getting a Sesto from a Super spin. Then I went and used the money to buy a Jesko.

Yeah, I really don't want to do the Willy thing, but I feel like I have no choice if I want a Sesto. Basically, everyone else is cheating, so if I don't, I just don't get one. Kinda sucks.

Yeah, you dickbags have some fast drivatar cars. Maybe joining the club was a bad idea! The Lotus Exige is what I used on the one I lost by 13 seconds.

So this season championship (the hot hatch one anyway) seemed way easier than the last one. I normally play on average, so 2 settings below, and I don't think I'm particularly good at this game (or racing games in general). Won the first track by almost 5 seconds, the second was kind of tougher...

All of this predates Trump, though. The plan would've been several years further along had Hillary won.

Wait, wasn't this delayed until 2022? And wasn't everyone here, a month ago, saying that this thing was a pile of crap?

So can anyone tell me how the fuck Arcade clears for the season? Do you have to make it through a certain number of rounds? Also, can anyone explain Limit Breakers? They keep coming up, but points are never banked. It's basically "drive really fast" but that's not sustainable in their little...

The only problem is it doesn't count as "completed" on the map for Rivals (just found this out). So I'm having to run it at least twice, once solo, once rivals. Also, thanks for the AMG GTR recommendation @Vorph. I saw a thing recommending the Nissan Skyline GTR 97 and it just wasn't my cup of...

Someone posted something very poignant a few weeks ago about the Constitution and I wish I had bookmarked it. But essentially the difference is in the US, the right is inalienable. In every other country, the right is given to you by the government. Which means they could also revoke that right...

Yeah, not sure what @pysek is doing. My request has been in for 2 days. Only 4 people in the club. Just accept everyone, dude! Anyone got any recommendations for good cars in the A or S1 tiers? I find most of the S2 and X ones are just too hard to race against, and I seem to have trouble with A...

She seems to completely gloss over her $3M loan, like somehow she doesn't have to pay it back? Also, consider she said she'll be bringing in $85k a year with a (levered) $1M investment. For an 8.5% return. So...good for her, I guess? That seems like a piss poor return to me, especially for a...

So I got an AMG One and suddenly the game got a whole lot more fun. And it was already pretty damn fun. Doing skill trains is actually feasible (I had a hard time chaining things like drifts before). I don't know if I've seen very many races where I'd want to use it because it's just a bit too...

Having fun so far. So I noticed you can see your friends in the races, but I'm assuming it's just an AI controlled and has no relevance to their performance. It seems the only thing that is transferred over is (maybe) their choice of car for that race, and the nametag. Is there any way to see...

Well it was neat, but not what I expected. Saw a fireball near the horizon that went up, due to the angle we were seeing it re-enter the atmosphere. Didn't hear a sonic boom though.

I mean, it's $500. I could give a shit.

I was hoping Robinhood would list Shiba and I could just throw the money I have lingering there in it. But that's looking unlikely, so I'm thinking ETH. Like you though, I don't think buying at close to $5k seems prudent.

The middler thing seemed like a very classic Curb storyline. Something no one would ever recognize in real life, but something that someone like Larry David absolutely would. Same thing with the hotdog eating content. Also a classic Curb storyline.

So much better. I'm relieved. I also think this Netflix/Hulu staff thing is building up into a bigger joke...hopefully. Or maybe it'll just be an unsaid joke about their shit culture. Either way, this was classic Curb.

Reading this thread is daunting as I have no clue about anything anyone is saying, having never played a Forza game before. Anything I need to know tomorrow before I dive in, or just go for it? Not really interested in watching a 30 minute YouTube video, either.

Thanks for the recaps guys, this shit is hilarious. Feel bad that Kyle had to get dragged into court for this clown show though.

This actually made me think about their 30 day delay. Based on the patches they've done in a month, my guess is they basically fixed fuck all in that month. They just don't have the talent or maybe direction to get anything meaningful done. It also probably speaks to why it was in development...

But that's another wtf for me. There is almost no monetization present. Almost no cosmetics. It's crazy. They could've implemented that stuff and maybe kept some of the players frustrated by their bullshit design, and gotten extra cash as well. Instead they just...didn't?
