Martin Brundle identified the 2026 powerplant regulations as a violation of the F1 rule which states that "the driver shall drive the car alone and unaided". I agree with him.

These are temporary workarounds. What is really needed will require significant car and powerplant changes.

motherfucker

He is also relying on cult followers to uncritically buy stock because it has the name "Elon" on it somewhere.

The White House Correspondents Association is planning to "honor" Trump at its dinner three weeks from now.

No way.

It was egregious before. Now it's obscene.

The same assholes who attacked President Biden relentlessly with false claims of him being mentally unfit such as propagandist Jake Tapper are now ignoring the actual deranged madman pedophile psychopathic felon who is literally unraveling.

I think people are allowed to draw conclusions about the American people based on their decision to put this man in office bsky.app/profile/pear...

Seriously?
Every single person who attends an event like that should be exiled from society.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

The media behave like dumb magpies, constantly running after the latest shiny object.

The media told us, based on the amount of coverage they devoted to it, that the number one military-related issue of the 2024 campaign was whether Tim Walz retiring from the National Guard after 21 years was too soon or not.

The excessive focus on the utterances of Max Verstappen is a direct substitute for the loss of 2 F1 races in the next month.
It has, however, shown us that a high percentage of Verstappen's fan club are jerks and assholes.

Tim Cook Is An Embarrassing Coward Apple CEO Tim Cook represents soulless, rudderless contrition, unburdened by consistent ethics or any sort of overt moral compass, desperate to delude you into believing that fascism can be a reasonab...

Grateful to @karlbode.com for articulating my iAnger so well here:

“Apple has bottomless resources when it comes to lobbying government. There's simply no reason for this level of feckless subservience by Cook. This amount of gushing enthusiasm for the fascist project is an active choice…”

They failed to learn a single thing from his first term.

0 Opinion The Editorial Board U.S. cut aid to Africa. The continent proved resilient. The abrupt change was messy, but forced governments to reform fast.

I read a lot of conservative media, and let me just say that this Washpost house editorial is one of the most shameful pieces of unsubstantiated, free-market claptrap that has been published all year, by anyone.

Barely a mention of the thousands of deaths caused by US aid cutbacks.

The tide has been going out ever since they all lined up behind the Iraq War.

And I have never once heard a single one of the editors or journalists involved even *reflect* on it, much less grapple with it or apologize for it. They feel zero remorse & would do the same thing again -- in fact, *will* do the same thing again, to whoever the Dem candidate is in 2028.

Pam Bondi has learned her lesson.

He went to stare down the justices.

Anyway, Kristi remains the biggest cosplayer in the Noem partnership

The utter uncompetitiveness of Western automakers at building EVs is part of the reason for their pivot away from them. China is going to flay them in many parts of the world.

A common thing you hear from Journalism Knowers is something like "Do you want people to write 'and that is bad' every time?" and the answer is yes. I do want that.

That's not a mote in her eye, it's a Giant Sequoia trunk.

I don't know what SCOTUS will do on birthright citizenship case, it's anybody's guess. But if they endorse Trump's diktat, the only response is defiance. Outright, open defiance by the states. A decision not just erroneous but illegitimate, beyond their power, null and void from the day it's issued.

"I honestly cannot stand this qualifying. “F*****g joke. I go faster in corners, throttle earlier and I am losing everything in the straight.”

He apparently had some choice words for the current power units after Q3 in Japan.

i remember when....<cough>...there were always rookie vacancies during the season, because somebody had a "tragic accident". <wheeze, splutter>

I used to work for DXC. They nickeled and dimed legacy employees. It was learned behavior carried over from the EDS and HP/HPE years.

The reduction in battery power was driven by a desire to reduce car weight, and fixing it would require new cars to be designed.
The reduction in ICE power was part of the 50:50 ICE:electric split. Significant ICE power increases will require redesigns of all ICEs.
F1 has dug itself into a hole.

The expectation was that the active aero would compensate for the loss of peak power by reducing drag in a straight line. However, the exhaustion of onboard battery power on straights, and PU re-rating during harvesting, is resulting in sudden losses in speed that active aero cannot compensate for.
