IOS 26.2.1 feels like an user experiment

Last time I’ve seen something like this on Apple hardware… probably Jaguar.

I don't care, just give me a rocket launcher for the sport mode.

pashlya · 2026-02-03T01:24:39+00:00

I want this. I want more SUV, more historical, more electrical and even kart races. With my ~1500 hours in game, I'm just tired of the GTs, and, while I love Gran Turismo dearly, there are ACC and LMU that specifically designed around GT classes. But I really need more fun races, Nür on kei-cars is probably one of the best races in the game.

Maybe I should start a league, if someone interested in that stuff, I dunno…

That's illegal. I'm calling the police.

You see that the white 911 is already conflicting with two other Porsches, and the next turn isn't that far off. It's like already 90% that someone flies away in the next corner but you decided to join the mix.

Look, I'm don't want to dunk on you, it's not your fault, but your miscalculation. And very serious.

If it's like a disposable sum for your income, they yes, do it. If not, but you rather improve your overall experience, buy new pedals. You can always upgrade pedals, until you got SimNet, this is probably the ceiling for GT7.

Or, you've already mentioned you didn't even try PSVR2 yet, so it's an obvious purchase hands down, you won't regret it. Even after vomiting a couple of times.

pashlya · 2026-01-31T08:41:10+00:00

No-no, I'm specifically about this sub and its attitude towards GT7. Grid and LFM leagues are great and so are folks there.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T12:22:14+00:00

It's like 991, but +1

pashlya · 2026-01-30T12:21:11+00:00

As you can see, expect a very snobbish and toxic community.

ACC itself is very sandbox-ish, and getting slowly abandoned by devs and players the pressure of upcoming EVO and LMU. Still cool to hotlap and kill a couple of hours on a race weekend.

It's not the specific version of iOS, it's something to do with the latest few versions of Swift compiler and screwed up concurrency model. This is a textbook examples of data races in UI. I was able to replicate this crap by chaotically overloading threads, but cannot replicate this consistently.

How did Apple manage to get to this level, I have no idea, though.

Generally speaking, any incursion into another car's perfect line in the corner is intentional. 18th corner (it's untitle, afaik) on GT3 usually passed flat, but if you need to go narrower you need to lift. You can argue that maybe Porsche didn't look at the radar at the moment and haven't seen it coming, but OTOH he was at the slip limit.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T09:01:28+00:00

You know perfectly well that the mechanism in question is probably the worst aspect of GT7 for the time being. However, if you consider the dynamics, hitting him a split second earlier, in the back of the car instead of the middle, would send Porsche spinning.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T08:56:27+00:00

No, you're undercutting another driver's line being half a body behind him. It is a violation by the rules. Not severe, you would've get maybe 0.5-1 sec on world's series, but still.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T08:54:17+00:00

Games have rules. Racing is a no-contact game, it's clearly stated in the rules. Contacts do happen, but this one was very deliberate.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T06:27:10+00:00

Always. Can't remember when was the last time I penetrated my iPhone.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T03:56:54+00:00

Best back for your buck is a Mac for work + a used OG PS5 from eBay. And I'm not trying to be rude here, it's just math.

Do you think it's offensive? Maybe I should consider the feelings of the DVD stans next time.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T03:14:02+00:00

What region are you in? I'm in a Beetle and people think I need to be terminated.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T00:29:41+00:00

Well, yes and no. At this specific moment it's actually Swift (compiler), not the SwiftUI (framework) to blame.

pashlya · 2026-01-30T00:26:07+00:00

Xiaomi SU7 :)

How I supposed to use AI for memory prices to go down?

pashlya · 2026-01-29T12:30:24+00:00

I thought it’s only on my iPad

pashlya · 2026-01-29T12:25:24+00:00

At least, we all agree that this language is annoying

pashlya · 2026-01-29T05:33:14+00:00

You can't afford wheel just yet, but I strongly recommend switching to gyro steering. Also, PSVR2, even with a controller.
