  • Because now it seems it is the drivers fault. If you get penalty points as a driver, because you overtaking and taking out your competitor in the process is on the driver and be gets penalty point(s) for that. Now let's assume Checo is here at one point away from a race ban.it would be kind of harsh to penalize the driver for a team mistake. It's a two way championship. So in these type of situations it would be more fair the team gets penalized iso the driver. And yes if drivers fuck up it counts also for the teams, I get that. But this just feels unfair imho. Just like Sainz penalty in Vegas.

    And point deduction for the constructor's can be harsh if they end up 2nd or 3rd at the end of the season.

  • Only reason I would imagine being this to the public is because they lost access or gained what they needed to gain and can show it off now. in any active breach as the actor performing this, you want to be as quiet as possible. Because to quote Kali. The quieter you are the more you hear.

  • Oh yes, not saying this is an American problem. We have in Europe (including my own country) far right winged idiots being elected (largely thanks to disinformation but also due to bad policy and decision making as you very well stated). But we cannot deny that whoever becomes a president in the US, has also substantial influence on what is going on in the world. Fuck facsism.

  • I partially agree with you. Yes mixing and mastering is far more important than bitrate. However if I let my gf listen to a identical song both in normal 16/44khz and 24 bit version, she can hear difference. Now is it night and day ? Not always, but subtle Improvement can matter when enjoying music.

  • As a European, I hope my American friends will do their uptmost best to ensure Diaper Don does not get elected for the sake of democracy and humanity. We are at the brink of a timeline that resembles a lot like the 1930s, and wish we are not going to relive those times again.

  • Actually this is a good deal. Curation on tidal is good, meaning they have cool playlists handpicked by people. In the past when I used it it was with questionable MQA encoding, which had a lot of controversy. But 24/192khz flac, If you care about audio quality is a better offer than Qobuz.

    Can't go wrong for the price. But I think the main driver should be audio quality. Because FLAC files (esp 24/192khz) can be very data hungry, for those who use it mobile only. So you need to be careful with that. You can use lower sample rates and higher bitrate mp3 as well if my memory serves well. But that defeats a bit the purpose of what Tidal stands for

  • Qobuz

    EDIT: this is when you have audio quality preferences and currating like Tidal does. But in the end it's a matter of taste. Platform A has sometimes songs and albums that platform B does not have and vice versa.

    But for your decision making, you can't go wrong with Tidal. If you have a good dac/hifi installation, you may want to opt for hifi plus. But the lossless plain hifi subscription is perfect if you are not super sound picky and not having a above decent installation.

    EDIT EDIT:

    They are merging hifi and hifi plus to a 10.99 offering. That is actually very good value if you don't care about the DJ part. I am even considering this to ditch my Qobuz sub.

    Haha ignore this post

  • I think since Japan last year that we can conclude that Ferrari is for sure stepped up their one lap form, however let's see tomorrow if Ferrari have sorted their tyre deg. I think they made a big step forward to it, but I think Red Bull (and particularly Max) still has the edge in race trim. His long runs yesterday were almost robotic (again)

  • The thing is salaries of staff will always increase, so this will bite sooner or later. Teams will be creative left or right to loophole this. Either by letting "sponsors" pay their salaries or go the Steve Jobs 1 dollar salary (and rest in stock).

    Idk, I get FOM (Liberty) want to have an American style of competition (with salary capa so not every year the same team wins) but does it work in such technologically driven sports ?

  • I hope for the stake sake of Sauber that this doesn't end in a yes yes yes yes, no situation at the last minute. Because for my taste there is too much rumor going on with Audi departing. We will see but I hope these rumors are going to end sooner rather than later. Carlos deserves that drive. (I suspect him to join Audi, like his dad does during Dakar).

  • Maybe it was his purpose. It's basically ammo for feeding his narrative about "how the west is bad, look what they make me do".

    I mean the level of mental gymnastics the Russian government has been performing is like 9d chess /s
