1) McDonald's is bad for you so being expensive is not a bad thing at least to me :D

2) No way I am using the app because I don't want to give away even MORE marketing and tracking data to big corpos. F that.

I guess that's what happens when Trump sues the WSJ. They get revenge and a laugh.

Can't say I disagree. My daughter is a younger teen and while she wants to be an adult woman, she's not there yet. Any creep who touches here is going to have to deal with me, and I'll happily explain that to any jury any day.

That is f-ing hilarious!

Emacs can do so much. All it needs to be pretty feature complete is a text editor. Maybe they can merge vim into it?

I thought this was bullshit.

It wasn't. After takeoff they flew at 10K until they got to North Carolina, then climbed to 22k. This likely had to do with not being able to climb to Class A airspace.

Also flying that low burns a lot more fuel.

1) Max is a freaking machine.
2) Upper tier cars always can chew through back-benchers.

If the advantage of starting from the pit (new engine, PU, gearbox) vastly outweighs the downsides (having to chew threw the bottom half in a few laps) then obviously the penalty isn't good enough. Lew 2021?

I feel bad for Oscar, but i think the pressure is causing him to make bad mistakes that cause even more pressure. Love Lando though, will be happy if he wins.

BTW, can we start talking about how Max's advantage for new parts completely negates the 'penalty'? I remember Ham doing that too.

I expect that while Trump is named (duh!) a lot of other rich, powerful financiers are going to be named as well. Musk and Peter Thiel are likely to show predominately, as well as other high net worth republican donors.

Trump is a figurehead, they are likely trying to protect their sugar daddies.

I don't understand why RB are doing all this just for Max. 2026 is going to be a huge year for changes, and their money would be better spent on next years car, not this years longshot championship.

Oh, wait...jos....thats why.

This is why jury nullification exists.

He came very close too to having fastest lap and earned a grand slam.

Tim Cook is running his temples right now asking himself "What have I done....?"
October 26, 2025 at 10:25 PM
Glad for Lando. Max's driving looked rather...uhhh....aggressive to the point it was dangerous Lap 1. Ham's penalty was justified, poor management by Ferrari. The VSC at the end ruined what was dramatic racing.

Oh, and marshals on the track also getting taken out by Lawson was scary.
October 26, 2025 at 9:57 PM
Had that VSC not deployed Oscar might have been P4 instead :(
October 26, 2025 at 9:52 PM
How much did you donate to the steward's dinner fund for that well timed VSC?
October 26, 2025 at 9:49 PM
I wasn't wanting Max to overtake Charles, but that VSC was garbage.
October 26, 2025 at 9:44 PM
I have no idea how Max's tires are still functional.
October 26, 2025 at 9:34 PM
I so want to hear George's reply when told to swap places back.

When MTG is the voice of reason we are really fucked.

I think Zak said that after Monza they were entirely shifting their energy to developing the 2026 model. By that point they pretty much had the WCC in the bag which was their goal. Personal achievements were not as important to the team as a whole.

Zak also doesn't have Jos to deal with like RB.

Writing the code is the easy part. Troubleshooting and testing the code is the hard part :D
