The latest Mario Kart World update increases “the frequency of lap-type courses” that appear during online races.
The change seems to address concerns over Nintendo’s decision to nerf the “random” track trick last month, which allowed players to avoid having to drive to their next track location, and instead have a traditional three-lap race.
In a letter to Comcast, Carr says he wants to make sure that the company’s “ability to exert influence” over local NBC affiliates doesn’t “undermine” their goal of serving the public interest.
Last week, Carr signed off on Paramount’s merger with Skydance — but only after Skydance said it would install a “bias monitor” at CBS, which recently canceled Stephen Colbert’s Late Show.

The deal, which includes access to the NYT, The Athletic, and NYT Cooking, will have Amazon paying $20 million to $25 million per year, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal. In May, the NYT said Amazon will use its content to train AI models and bring article summaries to Alexa.
The company plans on holding mock interviews where it will give coding candidates access to an AI assistant, according to a report from 404 Media.
“We’re obviously focused on using AI to help engineers with their day-to-day work, so it should be no surprise that we’re testing how to provide these tools to applicants during interviews,” a Meta spokesperson told 404 Media.
