    Apologies for the following rant, in advance! Am I the only one on the planet who groans and sighs every time support says it is via Discord? I mean, what the hell is this platform? It must be the most unintuitive way of getting support I have ever had the misfortune of using!

Maybe it's me being part of a generation with simpler expectations. IMO, it really is the…

It needs the official pieces so that it knows how high the top of the pieces are in order to grab it by the top. Otherwise it's the same (I think). (The voice you hear is the robot speaking, not a person). Plays checke…

    By finishing 3rd today at Abu Dhabi, Lando Norris wins the 2025 F1 championship by two points over Max Verstappen, 423 to 421. Max Verstappen won the race. Love him or hate him, you've got to admit, Verstappen made it an extremely exciting finish to the season. Great overall F1 season! Congrats to the Brits👍

    Flight simmers generally have good gaming computers and enjoy immerive simulation. Do you have a race car simulator or any driving simulator? I just got into iRacing. It is thrilling and exciting trying to get a better lap time without crashing. Races are every half hour or so.
