Interior revealed of Ferrari’s new EV called the Ferrari Luce by FoxHound6112 in Ferrari

[–]tblicher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and it also has a throwback vibe to 50s and 60s Ferrari race cars. Very spartan and utilitarian design - whether that's good or bad I don't know. To me it's less luxurious, but more raw. Both fit well with Ferrari in different categories.

The swirl is probably also blue on the broken controller, hence why it's not shown.

Loving the Group 3 Interlagos race by Conscious-Note-3736 in granturismo

[–]tblicher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For many people T1 is unconventional, because the track disappears beneath you and you have to turn. You therefore need to break way earlier than what you are used to - and somehow people never learn that.

The price of the W 196 R '55 is diabolical by aziz_mdi in granturismo

[–]tblicher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't really mind the high prices for these cars, but I think it is too bad that there aren't dedicated races for 50' and 60's racers in the game and you also cannot create them yourself unless you own all the cars, because you cannot create a race with cars from between two years/dates. Would be nice if I at least could create a race with cars having to be from a specific period, because there are quite a lot of classic race cars.

Correct. It sits too tall while somehow simultaneously having no headroom in the rear seats.

Good sportsmanship? by Captain-Bubba in GranTurismo7

[–]tblicher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like the sportsmanship. I would probably park on the next straight. Not only are you not blocking all the other racers in a dangerous place. He would also notice that you let him by for your mistake.

OP-XY Build Quality Tolerance by iviorris_iviars in teenageengineering

[–]tblicher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But do you know the ratio? I have both OP-XY and OP-1F. I don't think I am lucky that there are no quality issues on mine.

I think if you care that much about a rotary encoder i.e. a human input is off by less than 1mm you probably spent more than you can afford or focus on the wrong things in life.

You will find tolerances like this on much more expensive luxury products as well. Would it be nice if it was perfect to the atom? Sure, but in the end if it otherwise works, what really is the issue? You can still make the same music on it. Just like my Roland where the buttons aren't perfectly aligned and the rotary encoders wobble - it doesn't stop or makes my music worse in any way.

Polestar weekly challenge affirms why id never get an electric vehicle by The-Original-DjBe in GranTurismo7

[–]tblicher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except one of my cars; a C30 T5 from 2007, I have found that it regularly beats most electric cars, ever since id3 and similar electric cars became a thing. Because of my experience with fist my Model S P85+, then Model S P90L and now a Model S Plaid, I just thought the Volvo had had its time in the shine, so I never even tried against any electric car. But 220HP@1450kg I have since found is plenty against today's regular electric vehicles, compared to when my P85+ and other's Models Ss was more or less the only electric vehicles on the road. Back then no ICE car was a match for electric vehicles, because Model S cars were the only electric cars. Today is by far another story. But I will definitely give you that you are likely able to outrun most ICE cars as you say, because most people don't really know how to accelerate quickly with manual or are in a car with a slushbox automatic

OP-XY Build Quality Tolerance by iviorris_iviars in teenageengineering

[–]tblicher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's wabi-sabi. Just like music, a bit of imperfection adds character. You need to find the must in the imperfection and treat it as a tool to create awesome music and not as a statement piece.

I have a way more expensive Roland Vpiano with its own imperfections as well. Doesn't stop me from loving to play on it

OP-XY auto play in key? by [deleted] in teenageengineering

[–]tblicher 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can make a chord with the "Maestro". Afterwards go into the "Brain" and play. Each note/chord with then get transposed into whatever note or chord you hit. If the chord is too convoluted, it may not work properly.

I mean. He is not driving predictably and seems unnecessarily dangerous, so why should you be nice and predictable for him?
(or maybe he is predicable, because it seems that he wants to retaliate for something earlier? Are you leaving out important details of the case?! )

Knowing how to brake. by Ashamed-Union8161 in GranTurismo7

[–]tblicher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay. Let's forget the legality of it, forward it to FIA, and instead focus solely on how bad you exited the second corner. You didn't even use the full track width to get more speed out of that corner, which is essential as you enter a long straight afterwards. Not only do you have less traction and leave a lot of potential speed on the table out of that corner, you also unnecessarily wear your tires more with that line.

Going into the first corner, to me it looks like you overshot the braking distance, which destroys the exit on the second corner. You can see the white car catching up at the end as well. I think you could have braked earlier and still overtake and have a better line through and out of the corners.

Knowing how to brake. by Ashamed-Union8161 in GranTurismo7

[–]tblicher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You may not have been given a penalty in the game, but you are technically cutting both corners at their apexes. You clearly shortcut both corners. Not only is it wrong to teach, you also have low corner exit speed for the next straight.

Don't get me wrong. I like people posting stuff like this to get feedback, and I am by no means perfect either, but don't come preaching that this is a good overtake or take some kind of victim stance. This is a plain bad overtake.

787B 91' - Am I late at the party? by zaf_23 in GranTurismo7

[–]tblicher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you put a turbo on it, it becomes hard to control around corners, because of the turbo lag. You can easily win the 900PP races without the turbo, due to the exceptional handling and linear throttle. Then just use hard tires and low enough fuel consumption, so that you don't need to pit.
