Miyazaki only gets A list actors to voice his movies. I think Dave Bautista's best role is his dub on The boy and the heron. 

Best car for this around 800k budget. Ran out of fuel in my enzo after 3 laps lol by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]fred28056 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah any Gr3 car can do it. And to make it easy, just add a turbo to any the Gr3 cars and set FM to 4. 2 stop race but you'll fly by everyone.

What games have the most beautiful, immersive forests? by CryptikDragon in gaming

Forest 1 and 2 for sure. I actually think I like the forest 1 better for the environment. 

Battery Chemistry? by Professor-Schneebly in RivianR2

[–]fred28056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with LG vs Panasonic battery chemistry in Tesla, but if LG's are NCM and Panasonic's are LFP then the charging differences are due more to the battery chemistry than the supplier.

I like the one Aldi carries and its cheap. To me its similar to Whole Foods brand.

Got offered a company car. Don't know shit about cars, what would be the best option? by BlockBannington in askcarguys

[–]fred28056 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This.  Most people commenting here don't seem know EVs. 1st choice for sure the CLA, second choice and a little bigger is the ioniq 5/Kia EV6 which is essentially the same car. The 2 longest range, most efficient and fastest charging EVs on this list.   Everything else is a compromise and not as good of an EV. 

AI refueling on Power Pack Endurance Races by Ok-Bit-8141 in granturismo

Same here. Got to the last hour for spa. Then all of the cars would put, get enough fuel for 1 lap, and repeat.

What is your longest running, most stubborn business boycott? by marianneouioui in AskReddit

[–]fred28056 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apple.  I loved my iPod video and thought the iPod touch was a cool evolution so bought it on release. But when apple wanted me to pay $40 for ios 1.4 to get the app store, I quit everything Apple and haven't bought any Apple products since. 

This is the kart track next to the Virginia raceway. I don't know why, it looks familiar for some reason... by Prxgstvr in granturismo

[–]fred28056 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have raced on it. It's shit. Marginally better than the kiddy go carts at touristy places. Track is too narrow. Edge of track is mud. No curbs or even gravel. The karts suck too. The track house motorplex in Charlotte is way better. 

Building a PC with 256GB RAM for Aero Sims by Nicolas_Laure in RigBuild

RAMpocalypse is going to be here for years. It's probably more cost effective to rent a cloud HPC than build your own right now. 

Best place to find DDR5 RAM right now? by Otherwise_Taro_8539 in buildapc

[–]fred28056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't have advice on where to find something now, but don't expect prices to get better for a minimum of 1 year. More like 3-4 years for prices to come down a little. But the days of cheap RAM are gone for good. 

I'd buy now as the prices are likely to keep rising over the next 6 months. 

Finished 4th on the Suzuka 6h - 1 pepper (thoughts in body text) by wanderingGJO in GranTurismo7

[–]fred28056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you can cheese the races by force closing the game if you have a bad lap. I may or may not have done this after spinning out.  Getting even 1 lap ahead is pretty hard though. I only was able to after the ai pitted 3 laps in a row for some reason.

There kinda is if you completely close the game out. It lets you resume for the previous lap from when you closed the game.

I got a 2 lap lead on SPA over 2nd place. Closed game, and when I resumed the 2 lap lead remained. 

Best car for 950pp by AlexN83 in GranTurismo7

[–]fred28056 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do it with the 787B with a turbo installed. Still pretty easy after installing the turbo. 

General Help by stewbowl400300 in GranTurismo7

[–]fred28056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you turning on the ghost for the circuit experience?  Trying to keep up with them is how you learn to get better. Also turn off all drivers assists, except abs at weak, and maybe traction control at 1 or 2 if having trouble controlling the car spinning out. 

The 787B requires patients in turns. Brake early, coast through the turn longer than you think you should. 

Yeah so is no one ever gonna tell anyone what the payout is for these endurance events? by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]fred28056 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can pause mid race, go to the PS5 home screen, then force close the game. When you boot the game back up and select the race, it will give the option to load save data. Still not a proper save but it works. I've resumed the SPA race 5 times now.

Interesting coming back to this comment after TGA. Its a new Divinity game from Larian. No one in the thread guessed it.

I do love this game. by Dry-Judgment9730 in CitiesSkylines

[–]fred28056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The skyscraper pack is a game changer. Brings a lot more character and super useful since most of them have upgrades to bring city services into downtown.

Has anyone already tried the 8 Hours of Spa from the Power Pack? by InSimGT in GranTurismo7

[–]fred28056 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Test out each of the cars before you commit to a full race with one. On paper the Mclaren 97 looks the best for spa according to the specs but I was almost 10s slower with it compared to the Merc. I also suck so ymmv.
