On a similar topic, I think it's time for Yuki to move on from RB. He's clearly a talented driver but his mentality is horrible. It looked like he mentally checked out the moment Lawson undercut him with the pitstops. I don't know if it's him feeling stressed in that team or if he just doesn't have the right mentality, but I think he should try his luck elsewhere.

I wouldn't be surprised if Lawson gets promoted to RBR before Yuki.

The generals tried to overthrow or assassinate him on multiple occasions. The most famous one is the plot for the movie "Valkyrie".

If you put your name, address and phone number on a public forum and someone shares that do you think that's breaking the law? Doxxing generally applies to making personal identifiable information public without that persons consent. Those celebrities are making their own data public, or rather their private jets are because they're required to publicly broadcast their location in real time.

If those accounts are collecting public information they're not doing anything illegal. Otherwise we might as well call libraries illegal because they contain a registry of every book author whose book is in the library.

My point was that for it to be his idea he would've had to think about doing actual work. Even if he dismisses doing any work the thought would still have to cross his mind. I have a hard time believing it was his idea because doing actual work wouldn't even cross his mind.

Not to mention based on the numbers in the article I imagine the AI might actually do better than an average human would do. It wasn't as much of a "duh" as I thought it would be.

To do actual work? I doubt it.

I agree, but the downward trend is from the 00s when directors would just hamfist sex scenes into movies and shows regardless of whether they're relevant to the plot. I like to think we're trending back to normality where sex scenes actually serve a purpose instead of being there just for the sake of being there.

But first of all, it's not going to be $1 because it means HR will do more interviews which means the cost has to cover HR to some extent, HR simply isn't that cheap. Secondly, anyone willing to get the job is going to pay that price which means your likelyhood of getting the job probably doesn't change much. And if you're already an in-demand labor then nothing changes for you because you'll be sought out even if you don't apply.

So really what you're paying for is for them to tell you that you're not suited for the position.

I would absolutely recommend taking time to get comfortable with blueprints, they've been a huge timesaver for me. I just got my 600 caterium ingot factory up and running. Took me about 15 minutes to build, connect and wire 50 refineries. They don't look pretty but I don't care about pretty. If I wanted to make them pretty I could always build a building around the blueprint.

I also have blueprints for smelters, foundries, constructors, assemblers and manufacturers. All of them running vertically so whenever I need to scale up the production I just build my towers higher and the only manual things I do are connecting the wire between 2 blueprinted parts and connecting the inputs and outputs. Eventually I'll hit the belt limit, but then I'll just start a new tower next to the original one. I have also made blueprints for blenders and refineries but those expand horizontally and I'm not 100% happy with them, but they're still better than manually building them.

I think I've saved tenfold the time I spent figuring out good blueprints and it has taken off a huge mental load of factory maintenance because everything is built using the exact same style so it's pretty simple to understand what is going on in any of my blueprinted factories.

That's what I read from an article but I don't think whether they're level 4 or not doesn't really matter. The point is they officially claim to be level 2 but their cars clearly function beyond level 2.

To be fair, Rockstar also released RDR2 between the two GTA games.

Last time I checked that disclaimer was there because officially Teslas are SAE level 2, which let's them evade regulations that higher SAE levels have, and in practice Tesla FSD beta is SAE level 4.

This is one of the things I dislike about F1. Innovating withing regulations should be a big part of F1 but every time anyone innovates anything, everyone else goes "THAT'S CHEATING!". Either let innovations happen or turn F1 into a spec series. This constant crying foul is just boring.

Would you like to be known as the chick who "spits on dicks" or as a the guy who "sticks a thumb up the butt" if it meant you're set for life? I think you're viewing the "set for life" part but you're forgetting that you're also setting a moniker for life. She can do whatever she wants with the rest of her life but all people will remember is hawk tuah and that will be so for the rest of her life.

I don't know about you but I'd rather take my otherwise irrelevant existence rather than have my entire being distilled down to a single thing I did.

I view it as a form of capitalism indoctrination. If there's no material compensation it's a bad idea, which is the capitalist idea of "if I don't make a profit I won't do it". I've seen people argue free energy is bad because the excess energy cannot be monetized, which is something you say only if you want to profit from energy.

Please no. Something faster than a cyclops. I enjoyed cyclops being a mobile base, but my god was it slow. I don't remember what issues I had with the sea truck but I'd probably still prefer the truck to the cyclops.

Ricciardo was brought in to replace de Vries. And no one familiar with de Vries was putting money on him going to the main team. He was brought in to be a safe pair of hands until Lawson or another junior was ready.

Do you think Lawson is now somehow more ready than last year when he temporarily replaced Ricciardo? RB used to throw drivers in the seat to see if they sink or swim. I very much doubt RB is waiting for their juniors to mature. If anything they're waiting for new regulations and Lawson getting the seat this year is probably something contractual rather than him being actually ready.

And if Ricciardo was a seat warmer than why wasn't he made aware of it? His final race clearly showed he didn't have a clue what happens now. If he's not sure about his future then he was probably offered something more than just seat warming. Also Ricciardo doesn't seem like the kind of driver who would sit in a back of the field team just to be in F1, otherwise he probably could've gone to Haas or something like that. He went to RB because he saw a way to get into a top team.

And Ricciardo already showed he wasn't going to play second fiddle to Verstappen, that's why he left in the first place.

5 years ago. A lot can and has happened in 5 years. And him leaving is precisely why he would return as the second driver. He already left because he couldn't be first and Verstappen is still there, so Ricciardo already knows that going back means he's number 2. He wouldn't go back if he wanted to be number 1 because he already knows he can't have that, which means him going back also means accepting the number 2 position.

Red Bull hasn't gone soft, this is kinda their MO. They did the same with kvyat, using him until a junior was ready.

Go compare Albons points in RBR to Perez. Albon in 2020 got half as many points as Max and got kicked. Checo is currently on track to end the year with a third of the points Max has and RBR doubles down to keep him next year as well. When I said RBR has gone soft I meant the main team. Checo has been a question mark since the end of last year and the RBE of old would've given him the boot half way through this season just to see if another driver could do better. That's what they did with Gasly.

I don't think so. I think Ricciardo was brought on board as a safety net in case Perez completely flops. Who would RBR replaced Perez with? Yuki, who at the start of the season showed how he wasn't ready to play second seat? Lawson, who is still very much a rookie? Or Ricciardo, who knows the team and has the experience and who most likely accepts he'll have to be second?

The only question mark is, how the hell is Perez still on the team? Ricciardo being let go indicates to me that Perez will be in that seat until the new regulations. RBR has gone soft.

Yeah, note to self, don't make comments when tired. Key information might go missing.

I guess I should add that I made the comment because of the comparison between Todd and Anton. I found it odd to call Anton "outright evil" as if that's some distinction between Todd and Anton. Anton is no more or less evil than Todd. The only difference is that Anton was more violent due to the nature of his profession.
