Mostly doesn’t matter because it’s a light fuel run later in the day after track evolution, and other light fuel runs from McLaren and Ferrari had similar performances to the RB20.

There’s still hope.

Carlos doing so well to control Max’s attack.

Just like Kimi nodding off in the car.

South Africa has been the exception.

Well yes, it’s really difficult to switch when government only just managed to migrate to Windows 10 on most machines, and still uses Microsoft’s document formats for everything aside from PDF.

Up until a few years ago, UNISA was still using public-facing IIS servers and SARS was paying up the wazoo to maintain old Flash applets that people used to file their taxes.

One government department managed to waste R5 million on a WordPress website that used a $15 theme.

“He’s out of line, but he’s right.”

I would be down for some cajun-spiced KFC right now.

Microsoft’s implementation of the feature is called Windows Update Delivery Optimization.

Here’s a short optimisation guide: https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/windows-delivery-optimization.html

Fundamentally it’s not like the Bittorrent protocol, even though there are similar behaviours and the result is the same. Microsoft retains the ability to stop the network from seeding updates and has ways of only targeting specific supported configurations to receive new updates.

Ah, Russian boot-licking.

I prefer keeping DRS. Aside from the reasons for its inclusion originally, I love how it gets used offensively and defensively by drivers.

Austria showed that off the most, with one of the DRS detection zones engaging before a corner. We saw some really tight and smart racing by drivers using the corner to their advantage to use DRS even if they had already overtaken the car in front of them, or conversely using it to stay ahead if you let the car behind pass you ever so slightly.

Although the statistic would be insane and likely never repeated in history, I don’t want Red Bull to win every race this year. Someone else other than Max or Checo needs to win for once.

Checo won’t be allowed to win anything for the rest of the year, IMO. If there’s a chance for Max to win, I think Red Bull will prioritise that.

This is the basis of the ASUS warranty issues recently when they had exploding AM5 motherboards and vague text about EXPO support voiding warranty, painting themselves into a corner when they only had unsupported firmware that would technically void warranty.

It doesn’t matter that the company says “Oh we won’t enforce that rule” but they still keep the rule in place.

macOS? You gotta be kidding. Windows and Office is huge.

Just the entrenchment of Sharepoint and Outlook alone is enough to make switching to anything else a difficult prospect.

Hungary in a sense is still old school - races are won based on sector 2 performance and tyre strategies. There are still overtakes thanks to DRS and the new aero design, but it’s still a battle against tyre degradation.

The on-boards with telemetry were very interesting. You don’t usually see the drivers slowly modulating the throttle out of corners, but everyone was doing it to extend the tyres.

The launcher isn’t really the problem, it’s the fact that Overwatch 2 isn’t making them any money!

Spez has almost never had the gift of foresight.

We also don’t know what his simulator times were like.

If it works, then they can keep it and market it as a sustainability initiative (with benefits to on-track drama).

If it doesn’t, it’s just a test to see what happens.

“We need to be fair in our broadcasting!”

Yes, but you don’t have to platform Nazis.

That’s probably why digital displays still have analog speedometer options. At a glance it’s easier to tell what’s happening with your speed, rev count, and other levels like fuel.

But much of that utility is useful for manuals and ICE-powered cars.
