Star Trek is getting some sim racing.
Yup, it's a. Holodeck episode.
The race replay for Hungary is a Pro video you can test now if you want to get contingencies in place.
Whole grid in Q1, Q2, Q3 would be super fun imo.
I'm the lead mod on the Lemmy.ml community, and I'd say join both, but be cautious of this one if you haven't seen the race yet.
Bwoah is a beast for posting content!
Polite reminder not to discuss piracy or workarounds for region locks in here. Thanks all!
There'll be workarounds, but how many of them work on am nvidia shield is the real question.
Nooooooooooooo! That's a problem for me haha.
Leeds got relegated, so we wouldn't be missing out on Scotty there at least.
Star Trek Strange New Worlds is awesome. The latest crossover episode with Lower Decks was just brilliant.
I downgraded from Family to Duo as I didn't know Duo existed until they put the family plan price up. Jokes on you, Spotify!
Test reply sent from Sync for Lemmy!
