The question is whats the cost of living for their area…87k can be amazing in middle of no where, but can also mean you live in a garage if you are in bay area…

Err. wont matter…he will still keep defending same manner…either crash or dont pass him…and 100% max would not get a penalty if he kept the lead…stewards never want to penalize him for shit moves…well they never like penalizing lead drivers for a shitty move unless they stop being lead or it does not matter any more. And Max abuses that to the Max…stewards need to be as agressive with penalties to lead drivers/top teams as they are to back of the grid… How many times have we seen penalties for back of grid for same moves the front makes without a penalty…2021 was absurd…

Agreed. I should really spend a bit of reaearch time but it seems there are many drivers that do well in F3/F2 etc and then completely bomb in F1. I wounder whats the difference that results in such significant difference in performance.

Switched to tidal as got fedup with Spotify shit app quality, constant breaking when usieng Android auto, and glitching out when playing between pc/android. Tidal is better but missing things. My wife loves alexa integration…so she sticking with Spotify. I am enjoying tidal though. It just works evey time. Its clear why it stops playinga song, and so on. I would rather miss featurs then use buggy product. Spotify is full of random featurs and crap but its buggier then ever…

One other stark difference is the qulaity of of mixes and radio stations tidal puts together…spotify plays same stuff on loop basically, i rarely got anything good thats new and not promoted artist…with tidal i get a huge mix of artists in mymixes and radios, both new and old stuff…its been better for discovery then Spotify.

Because many ppl that earn that kind of cash live in high col area…where ur expenses eat up everything unless u are dual income. In bay area u pay 3k a month for an apartment…and food/gas bills easely add up to 2k…its rough…

Next upgradeTM, Lewis got tired of that so moving to next yearTM

Fair enough. Haha

This is formula 1, when do team’s or fia learn from prior mistakes…on serious note…will be pretty wild if Horner get him self ousted due to doing something inaproriate, I would think some one who managed to bring his team so far would not do something stupid to only loose it all…especially in current age…

Agreed…I think it will also depend on how merc does with or without Lewis. As long as merc stays top 3 I doubt we will see him go, now if merc slips into 4/5 consistently it might be an issue.

This sound like a take from some one who never tried vr games or used a vr headset… Once you use even current quest 2/3 you will quickly realize the possibilities and advantages vr can have…the issue is the tech is still not quiet there yet for average consumer (and it was not even close for last 20 years for sure)…we need better compact graphics processing units, and denser screens with better optics designs…these will all happen in time. Assuming we don’t die from global warming or ww3. Once the hurdle of high cost/low dpi/relatively limited processing power of now is overcome, vr/ar will be defacto standard for PC gaming and work, as using fixed screens will be inefficient/more expensive. I would use my quest pro for work if it had 40% higher dpi/clarity and I cn easily see the tech getting there in 2-3 years time. Mobile GPU power will take a decade to run games with graphics of today ( I am referring to stand alone headsets, as pcvr is to cumbersome for casual gaming, this will improve with better software and wifi development but wifi 6 is bearly good enough today, so we likely see wifi7 come along and usher in dedicated headsets with console coupling (e.g. wireless VR headset + PlayStation ) (better mobile processors for faster decoding will help a ton as well). Vr/Ar will continue to grow and once it gets critical mass will explode as we are seeing with electric cars.

I mean what do ppl expect, it looks like it has normal road tires and weighs probably at 5 k pound… Any truck with that weight/tire setup would struggle…not defending tesla but the expectations are quiet off…

Yeah…it definitely not helped…if next weekend Danny gets points and finishes ahead of perez (e.g. another dnf or silly crash that throws him in back) …it will be sealed as Lewis is then likely to get p2…assuming Merc actually continues to perform…

Fingers crossed…the question still is, will this allow them to take a step forward and fight rb next year, which is quiet a large gap, or will this just make them slightly faster #2…hopefully RB makes a mistake and does not improve next year letting other catch up, but unlikely… Also hope either Perez improves or rb#2 gets a better driver to close gap to Max so there is at least some tension there…

They did well in Mexico last year too…i would hold calling them improving the car until next 2 races…untill next upgrade tm. 😭

It is…

I think the concern is with emissions from burn up process as well as launching rockets to replace said satellites. Do wonder what ends up being prdouced/deposited in the atmosphere during burn up and how it compares to natural objects?

It’s not really a sensor issue, as much as having software that can interpret the sensor data and act on it. Cameras and lidar effectively provide same thing, distance to objects in 2d/3d. But u need software to process that data and identify where the road is, where little jonny is, and what to do…arguably, the distance measuring problem has been solved for a while with lidar or with cameras, it’s object identification and reaction to that info that’s not solved. You can’t really solve it with traditional if/else programming, while AI gives you only a probability of what something is or what action to do…so the problem is hard.

But ntsb/dmv whatever needs to come up with a way to test and classify autonomous driving software…probably doing real world test and identifying edge cases where it fails.

This seems to be a key point ppl miss. There is still quiet a big question if cdr and storage can be net negative…for example one place we want to store co2 is in saline basins, but this will require disposal and treatment of the brines removed from the basin…which might emit might end up emmiting as much co2 as ends up being stored in the saline basin. There is a paper on this issue…

CO2 to syngas to hydrocarbon fuels is probably a better carbon zero process, considering we will need to do a ton of cdr anyway…although doubt energetics and economics would be great. Hydrogen, just like biofuels today are anything but carbon neutral, and efficient electrolysis might never happen. Hydrogen production will also face water shortage issues and in general electrolysis requires pretty low tds water which is not trivial to source…not sure what’s best way to get carbon zero airplanes honestly…

Odds of Ham in a Red Bull are nill, Him in a Ferrari though? Maybe…
