My friend, I understand how manufacturing works. I was just looking to see who might be a better choice to support with a purchase.

It’s a similar situation with power tools. There’s about 4 large Chinese manufacturers that make almost everything, despite what the logo on the side says. I did some research last time I made a purchase and it was disappointing.

Marnie would enjoy that.

I am deeply lucky to be married to a unionized government worker with one of the best health insurance plans you can get. I am not sure where this story would have gone, were it not the case. Certainly nowhere good. I say this because I need you to understand that chronic pain is not solved by having money, or having great insurance, or having access to the best doctors. Do they help? Yes. Can they fix you? For too many of us, the answer is no.

This is the most telling part of the article. If they had to navigate the system without top notch health care, they would feel differently.

If FOM is training and paying all the stewards, F1 can start moving away from the FIA as a sanctioning body. Who needs them at that point? FOM can create their own car designs and enforce their own rules as well. Sounds like a win.

I have a local group that’s constantly filled with questions like this and I swear it’s just people wanting attention. Most of them know how to use a search engine.

Lando has a long-term problem with this type of stuff. I don’t know if it’s age or if they haven’t provided him the media training just say it’s your fault and move on because people will also move on. The excuse making sucks from a team that is supposed to at the absolute pinnacle of motorsports. That being said, I’m going to defend McLaren a little bit here because Red Bull at the beginning of the year did have a sizable gap in performance, which probably had something to do with a little braking mechanism that the FIA later had to clarify was illegal. This has been a sport about bending rules and finding loopholes, but there was a noticeable drop off in performance after the rule “clarification”. McLaren did absolutely fuck themselves as well though.

Kahn academy. It’s free and goes as deep as you want. I had to brush up on some stuff and it was great.

It’s worth trying out just for the weirdness of it all.

This game is weird as fuck, but I also still think about it on a semi-regular basis. I really enjoyed it and would lose myself trying to all the complete deliveries. It’s worth playing if you have any interest.
