Re: Tesla Cyberpuke

If makita angle grinders develop sentient consciousness and decides to kill all humans, I might think twice and buy a dewalt instead.

Not buy the makita and praise it for being merciful when it only cuts one leg off below the knee

Re: Your fleet running reports

I’d say stalk is at fault, especially with it working after a jiggle to main flash. Worth a check that it’s not a frayed wire or loose connection- it’ll be either a jack plug or a series of spade connectors, which can loosen up with time- could even be as simple as a rusted connector in there

Re: Speed Limiters - July '24

My focus has the tech in, and that’s 4 years old so it’s nothing new. It comes up on the little screen in the middle of the dials, and flashes a speed limit sign when you go over the limit. I’d say it’s about as reliable as the other systems commented on here, it’s right only 75-80% of the time- it ...

Re: F1 Monaco Town Parade (fast version)

He slotted his car into a gap that was only ever going to disappear, I think anyone else would have backed off, if you watch hulkenbergs onboard you can see Perez having a possibility of running along side one of the saubers, but backs out of it. He also looks like he’s dealing with a boatload of wh...

Re: Quintuple crown

Kimi and kubica both did some rallying. Both rather uneventful except kubica’s hand ruining crash

Edit- Alonso also tried Dakar. That probably deserves a place?

Re: No F1 thread?

After Ocon tried a dive down the inside of gasley he was given 10 seconds penalty. As he didn’t continue they’ve converted it into a 5 place grid drop in Canada, that is if he races, as Bruno has threatened to bench him next race
