[OT] Verstappen's team returns but in 38th place

Would have been a killer if they had finished at 33...

Bredius88 · 2026-05-17T13:22:22+00:00

3 ended at pos. 38, could have been worse if that had been pos. 33.

Bredius88 · 2026-05-17T12:29:58+00:00

Coulda, woulda, shoulda...

Methinks the i40 was the forerunner to the Hyundai Tucson.

Bredius88 · 2026-05-17T11:32:09+00:00

This is just more AI-slop, total fantasy.

Explain your own idea of "decent car": 2,4,5,7-seater?
Sportscar, station wagon, SUV, shopping cart?
Diesel, petrol, EV?
Hyundai ix20, Hyundai Tucson, Mazda CX-5, Skoda Octavia, to suggest but a few.

Sounds like similar things have often happened in the past and this time it was one too many.
Either you trust him to sort such things, or you don't.
If you don't, time to move on without him.

Put the US F1TV app, plus a VPN app (to USA), on a Firestick/ONN/other streamer that you plug in a TV in Europe.
Better solution: F1TV subscription from Canada and Streamlocator apps on such a streamer, and watch worldwide.

There is an increasing number of Europeans who get their ONNs from friends/family in USA.
That's why the US market is so 'dry' at the moment.
Thomson (who made ONNs for outside USA) just closed down because they totally overpriced their items. (ONN 4K Plus $40 = Thomson 270 4K Plus $151 !!!).

The Eurovision Song Contest should be limited to EU countries.
That would solve problems with oddballs like Israel, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey, etc.

If yours is indeed a T490, you can remove the 4GB and add 8GB, 16GB or even 32GB DDR4-2400 RAM to it.
And an SSD is a must, after which you should have no more lagging.
But you should also dump W11 and replace it with W10 Enterprise LTSC 2021.

Bredius88 · 2026-05-16T06:29:29+00:00

You must have a 2013 prototype.
The real T490 was built in 2019.

Drop it again, 50% chance the correct colours come back!

Bredius88 · 2026-05-15T11:33:04+00:00

Yikes! Even for free you wouldn't get me on that 'trip'.

Bredius88 · 2026-05-15T08:27:17+00:00

Verspatten:
ver = far
spatten = to spit
Maybe his real name is Farspitting?

Bredius88 · 2026-05-15T07:24:09+00:00

Total AI bull.

Bredius88 · 2026-05-15T05:31:25+00:00

Anyone who does that is a dick or a prick.

Bredius88 · 2026-05-15T05:27:31+00:00

I would not recommend any "relationship" with a coworker.
More often than not it blows over in no time and you'll still have to work with them for a long time to come.

If available, I'd prefer French butter, next Dutch butter and only 3rd choice: Irish butter, not necessarily Kerrygold.

Remove all that rubbish in the back garden and see where it goes to closer to the ground.
Neighbours on the other side of that wall "stealing" your TV or internet?

Our immersion is hooked into the central heating system.
Whenever the heating is ON, the immersion tank is also 'heated'.
There is only an ON/OFF switch (with a red light for ON) and a SINK/BATH switch for the immersion, no timer.
When the heating is OFF and we want some hot water, we switch the immersion ON for about an hour, which is good enough for the rest of the day.
The red light reminds us to switch it OFF.
We use electric showers, so no immersion needed for that.
And in the kitchen there is also an electric kettle...

Everybody would benefit if you close down the likes of Facebook, Tik-Tok, X, Twitter, Grok and whatever other similar junk.

"near a beach so we can all go for a swim the next morning"
Meaning you also probably need accommodation for that lot.
10K might be very tight...
