That will kill your drives far sooner than a temperature spike. load/unload cycles is one of the biggest HDD killers.

Google did some research on this way back when. Failure rates start going up at an average temperature of 35 °C and become significantly higher if the HDD is operated beyond 40°C for much of its life. That's HDD temperature, not ambient.

On the contrary, they found that temperature had almost no bearing on failure rate.

because the intermission tracks frankly suck for the most part, and are just straight-line roads.

It almost feels like Nintendo are punishing the old meta of high acceleration/very nimble but no speed, using drifting and boosts to keep up speed.

Old Men... are the future.

At least from my experience the 'random' choice now just chooses from one of the three available choices, rather than the full list.
