Legit the first thing I noticed. It’s actually not that hard to find the community you’re looking for.

Money.

Now that USB-C is the required cable, people can go out and buy any cheap cable they want. The law turned a proprietary cash cow into a low return commodity item.

Stroll’s gap to his teammate is as large as most of the rookies on the grid to their respective teammates. But yea, his dad owns the team…what can be done. Money is privilege.

Played a lot this week. For those on the fence this game feels amazing. Terrific gun play and movement. This is a real ‘back-to-basics’ battlefield-like shooter. I highly recommend jumping in on it.

I’m all for compensating moderators but I think it should come with additional oversight, vetting, and higher expectations. There are many terrific moderators out there who absolutely deserve to be compensated for their efforts. However, there have been too many instances of power hungry mods who have had a negative effect on a community.

Either hire mods as employees so that they have oversight from management or make it so mods can be voted out. There needs to be some level of accountability.

They’re too expensive. Lower the price and I’d buy one. Remember when we were promised a $40k F-150 lightning? Now they retail for like $70k minimum and dealers tack on an extra $25k for shits and giggles.

Latifi and Mazepin were both pay drivers. Likely, sponsors and money were tied to their seats.

Same here. So far so good.

Not as much activity as Reddit obviously, but I’m embracing it by seeking out the more active communities. I definitely fell into a rut on Reddit by only sticking to a handful of subs. This transition is forcing me to develop new interests, it’s great!

Perez qualifying 9th in a RB on a track that is difficult to pass on. That RB should be on the podium every race.

In a clean race, that RB should be on the podium every time. Less than that is subpar.

New ways of cooling data servers and batteries for EVs. Rather than typical air or water/glycol cooling we’re immersing the components in a dielectric fluid. It’s an interesting space as both the hardware and fluids are being developed simultaneously. The company I work for is developing the fluid.

About 90% of the fluids out there are just oils taken directly from a refinery and repackaged under different names with a ton of marketing. Yet, end consumers don’t really understand the technical details of the the fluids so they tend to fall for whoever has nice marketing. We’re out to change that and show that the chemistry we add improves the performance and durability of the fluid. So half the job is engineering and the other half is educating customers.

When we couldn’t share a family password anymore we just didn’t sign up for our own account. Easy as that. Been watching a ton more Hulu as a result. Netflix isn’t worth more than a one-month sub/year.

I’d like to see Andretti get on the grid. Family team with a good history of racing with OEM backing. Not sure what else F1 could possibly be looking for…unless all they want is Saudi oil money.

As more people join one will get selected. There was r/cars and r/autos for a long time. R/cars won out in the end.

This is going to have an interesting effect on the labor market. With people being ‘locked-in’ it will ultimately reduce worker mobility. Combine with the emphasis on ‘back to the office’, this will reduce the labor pool available to employers.

The good news is that new build costs are coming down and builders are starting to ramp up again.

I think the free money train has ended and people are now left with ridiculous grocery bills and can’t afford the $70k vehicles others were previously financing at 0%.

Interest rates have destroyed affordability and now people are looking for the cheapest thing on the lot that fits their needs. Expect inventories to rise in everything but the cheapest vehicles until OEMs get with the programs and reduce prices.

COVID is over and we’re ‘back to normal’ according to every employer out there. How about prices come back to normal as well.

This is hilarious. Reddit resorting to bots…like a new twitch streamer trying to con their way to partner. What a sad, sad outcome for what was once a great website.

Between Reddit and Twitter I hope big tech begins to take notice and realize they don’t control as much as they think they do. They’re much easier to replace than they think, and ultimately they’re just ad companies.

Introducing the new Aston Martin Team Principal!

This is false. Nuclear has a very competitive levelized cost of energy (LCOE). Nuclear has high upfront costs but fuel is cheap and the reactor can last much longer than solar panels. The big picture matters not just upfront costs.

They’re blinded by dollar signs that won’t come to fruition. Complete brain dead move on their part.
