Love to discover with each weekly update of Forza Horizon 5 in which new way the AI-driven cars are broken. This time they’re just stopping by the side of the road and… waiting for the heat death of the universe?

Same, car. Same.

If there was ever any doubt that Apple would fight tooth and nail for every inch to be gained against the App Store monopoly, their pettiness in implementing court-ordered changes makes a rather definite statement

Les scénaristes d’And Just Like That étaient dans une situation compliquée vu que la série parlait déjà de deuil, mais ça me perturbe un peu que suite à la mort de l’acteur qui jouait Stanford ils aient juste refilé ses répliques à son mari en les modifiant le moins possible.
