Glass half full: They are transforming investor’s money into subsidized rides and food deliveries for everyone else.  That money’s going somewhere!

Depending on what he does, sometimes the client pays. I have a friend whose company does a lot of international consulting and design work that requires on-site visits, and usually “what kind of plane ticket and who pays for it” is written into the contract. Sometimes it is economy one way, business or 1st class the…

Much like every legit company that tried something with NFTs, they flopped hard.

This x1000.

Good god, why can’t the twitter-left invent slogans that aren’t awful and require a couple thousand words to explain. “Defund the Police” basically polled worse than cancer, and “Ban Cars” will likely do worse. They’ll look great in a right-wing ad claiming that’s precisely what the left wants.

It appears they’re bringing in a rulechange for this weekend, but it’s basically Toto’s nightmare: the FIA will measure your porpoising with onboard sensors during practice, and apply suspension and ride-height restrictions until it stops.

The best thing about blockchain games is that when they fail, it’s recorded on a public ledger for all to see.

Apparently the new 2022 rules encourage this kind of breaking apart to help with energy dissipation and avoid it splitting along the fuel tank a la Grosjean 2020.

That was actually a pretty interesting race by Monaco standards until Mick hit the wall. Afterwards with everyone trying to run to the end, it was pretty processional.

It being in port makes me think they should’ve evacuated it more.

Cool, I’ll write a letter to my Senator to change tax laws.

The massive tailwinds like well-to-wheels energy consumption about 2.5x that of a BEV? You start with 100kwh of electricity and get about 35kwh of motive power in a FCEV.

I had this happen 6 months ago (30ft off the ground, go-round), and I asked the pilots on my way out. They said the plane that was supposed to be departing the runway was late departing. Said it was about a once-a-year thing for them.

I’m guessing they’re going to be shortening and reducing the # of DRS zones in upcoming races. These two tracks probably had DRS spec’d out before the season. The last thing F1 would’ve wanted would be headlines of “2022 cars still can’t pass, Bahrain GP processional”. Now that it’s been firmly shown that they can…

Western Union appears to charge $80 on a $50k transfer from my country. That’s not hella expensive, that’s a 0.16% fee.

This article mirrors exactly the doom I feel when I go to CES. Does the world need an 80-inch 8k Smart TV?

What they’re really doing here is fixing a huge oversight. George Russell was allowed to have good luck for once, and that cannot stand.

Holy crap! I’m getting screwed!

“Fire-free version”.  Well, they hope, anyway.  I assume LG told them the first battery was also fire-free.
