2024 Austrian Grand Prix - [POST RACE] discussion thread 🏁
  • I can't figure out the "rules" for that situation, as they seem very fluid depending on the corner and the outcome.

    I wouldn't have thought Lewis should have given the position back to Sainz, but l also watched Max barge Charles off there years ago with no penalty.

    While Max was clearly at fault for the collision, Lando was optimistic on a few of those attempts, my personal favorites being "He moved under braking!" Where max looked like he took a pretty normal line through the turn, and "He pushed me off!" When Lando locked up and blew through the corner.

    I can't stand either one of them, so it was highly entertaining.

  • What popular product do you think is modern day snakeoil?
  • While I'm going to ignore your clear issues regarding other people's weight, there's 258 million people, if a quarter of them spend $100 a year on "protein shakes" there's your 6.5 billion, and now that number seems low.

  • Shit...
  • He sold it into PayPal, then bought it back from PayPal a couple years ago.

    Not sure how trademarks work, but I think it gets stickier when it's used for different purposes. like how there's Starcraft trailers and the game.

  • Congress Just Made It Basically Impossible to Track Taylor Swift’s Private Jet
  • It's a giga-stupid post, barely worth refuting, but private jets are not cars.

    You can track every flight I've ever been on, if you know the flight number, or plane ID. Now billionaires have their own special carve out.

  • What's your most unpopular opinion about music ?
  • I don't mind a cover changing the meaning of a song, but stuff where the cover is just the song again is...lazy as fuck?

    Like Fast Car by (country music guy) is fantastic, but it's the same as the original, which is also fantastic. Feels cheap or something, I don't know. Like the whole Weezer cover album was boring as fuck. The songs are technically great, but why listen to that over the originals? Rivers said his goal was to try and reproduce the original sound, which seems like an interesting exercise for the band, but not for the listener. So that wraps back around to respecting the band.

    Anyways, I have a lot of strong feelings about covers. Make it your own, even if you don't change it that much.

  • All the ways streaming services are aggravating their subscribers this week
  • Netflix is a public company, you can just go look at how wrong you are about this.

    They took in $9.3 billion in Q1 2024, and spent $702 million on "technology" and $3.7 billion on adding "content assets"

    Their net profit was $2.3 billion, for one quarter. They could afford to just charge less money, but the line must go up.

  • Open Links in Private/Incognito Mode?

    Is there a way to open external links in private mode by default?

    I am on Android with Firefox, and there's no way to copy the links out of a post, so it opens in the "powered by Firefox" half browser thing, and id rather open every link in private mode, or have the option to long-press and copy.

    Thanks.
