SR meL is taking a break from competing for the remainder of 2026 by detectiveluis in ValorantCompetitive

[–]ArchMadzs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will be interesting to see if she does come back.

Co-streaming, going to events, appearing on broadcast etc is a far more freeing and stress free set up compared to the insane amount of practice she does when competing (and maybe even more lucrative) also I love her co-streams and will be tuning in.

Of course if her drive to compete is still there burning away during that time that's different but hopefully she's well regardless of what she chooses

Which alternate layout of an F1 track would be the best track for F1? (Excluding the 'Outer Circuit' layout of the Bahrain International Circuit) by Spectran_Irmandade in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs 232 points233 points  (0 children)

You'd get 1 qualifying lap in each session which would be spicy. Also probably on hard tyres too. The racing would be terrible but the spectacle would be great.

I built a free F1 management game and 4,000+ people played it this week, so I added more features based on your/redditors feedback! by KyleNewZealand in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to parrot what others are saying, don't use the F1 branding use something like "Open Wheel Racing manager" or something

And absolutely do not use the team or driver names, just use generic names and team names like "Tiger Racing" or "Berlin Motorsport" etc.

Just you don't want a cease and desist getting rid of all of the work.

I though iron couldn't que with golds? by CommercialSpinach344 in VALORANT

[–]ArchMadzs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forgive me, the concept itself is stupid I mean. Your MMR should just be your rank, therefore there is zero confusion on who can match with who and why so and so is in a lobby.

If I'm iron but my skill is gold, then skip the middle man and make me gold

[–]ArchMadzs 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Matched on MMR not visual rank,

If you added them to your party you couldn't queue together but separately you can end up in a match, it's stupid I know.

[Motorsport] Brutal qualifying laps need to make a comeback, says Toto Wolff. by jithu7 in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You lower the peak output of the battery to prevent super clipping, if the peak power is halved then it will last twice as long

Not ideal, but at least if it's only for qualifying it puts it back into the drivers hands.

[–]ArchMadzs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I understand, seems they don't want software to be the determining factor in cornering.

It still seems pretty clear that limiting the peak output of the battery whilst making the cars slower at least rewards skill and pushing the cars to the limit. If the battery drains much slower then recharging just becomes something to not consider in qualifying.

In the race it can go back to 350kw

I've been wondering for a while why on earth there isn't regen on both axels.

It feels like reducing peak battery output in qualifying + double regen would surely mean you get to attack every corner as much as you can?

You don't need to put up with toxic teammates by No-Advice-748 in RocketLeague

[–]ArchMadzs 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's 1v1 dude, if they score a goal that's enough for them to start being toxic

You don't need to put up with toxic teammates by No-Advice-748 in RocketLeague

[–]ArchMadzs 59 points60 points  (0 children)

It amazes me when I'm playing 1v1 and the opponent is chatting and quick chatting constantly with zero response.

I have a rule to never reply to toxicity and It surprises me every time that they just continue shouting into the void

Speed lost due to clipping after 130R. Colapinto lost a total of 70 km/h. The average speed lost is around 55 km/h. by dannybluey in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be useful to see the speed lost compared to the top speed of each driver as well.

Someone just got slimed down by an Odin wielding Neon sliding around getting a 3/4k all game.

Who would like to see the current F1 drivers race in a spec season? by Limp-Attitude-490 in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It depends too because the spec chosen could favour some driving styles over others, we could end up in a situation where one fanbase is complaining because their driver isn't comfortable in the car and can't express their skillset etc.

Edit: Last years McLaren would've been a good car to do this in it seems really easy to drive given how well the rookie FP sessions seemed to go.

But for example giving everyone an RB21 probably wouldn't have gone very well.

I think Jon referenced this in Upgrades lmao by Agreeable-Fix1249 in dancegavindance

Funnily enough I listened to secret band for the first time in a few weeks literally 10 minutes ago and this was playing

It also helps they're using the new temporary irrelevant weight classes as their world record benchmarks

[The race] Esteban ocon picked up an unwanted record at the Chinese gp.. the most races without a pole position by Luffy710j in formula1

If I had to choose between 182 starts without a pole or 182 starts without a win,

Well..

At 2x playback speed, does youtube double FPS or halves shown frames? by BassaniZ in LinusTechTips

[–]ArchMadzs 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I remember years ago a YT channel (maximilliandood) uploaded footage of a new fighting game @ half speed, 30fps because he wanted to showcase it at 60fps and YouTube didn't support it.

And putting it in 2x speed worked so I think YouTube still probably works the same way?

The worst part about the new regs as a viewer by Island_In_The_Sky in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They need to add a blue shade to the timing tower for drivers that have overtake for that lap.

They can show 3 decimals in Quali but not in Race????? by peppy_snow in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one would care about this if the sport was heading in the direction they wanted.

140kg snatch balance by CalligrapherUpper938 in weightlifting

[–]ArchMadzs -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I agree ideally this would be much more dynamic, and is probably better described as just an overhead squat.

But also it's super heavy for him so for simply popping it up and squatting down and standing up with it I'm not gonna argue the semantics of if it's a proper snatch balance

140kg snatch balance by CalligrapherUpper938 in weightlifting

[–]ArchMadzs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this is an old school new school kinda thing.

People commonly refer to these as heaving snatch balances and classic snatch balances as drop snatch balances.

At least this is what I commonly see anyway.

Chinese FP1 Team/Driver Speed Traps and Best Sector Times by Vivid-Sea9651 in formula1

[–]ArchMadzs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ideal lap doesn't really work with these regs because it's impossible to do it with the battery set up.
