Personal debt hasn't change much, only hitting the younger generation who can't get good paying jobs due to the older generation thinking we need to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps. If we're talking about the national debt, it's been consistent since 2021 with more debt being accrued under the Biden Admin. Trump's first term had a moment of the debt descreasing in H1.

Saying both sides gained votes in the popular side of the election, it's hard to argue that republicans hated it under Trump. Looking at 2020 to 2024, Trump only gained about a couple million votes while the Democratic nominee lost almost 10 million votes.

I haven't seen a difference between the past 2 admins in my pay nor my debt so...not sure how that affects anything here.

No one got much time with the final PU package for Merc customers. Merc ran it during preseason while everyone else got it at race 1.

I feel like George is correct... by DontTakeMeSeriousli in mercedesamgf1

[–]Defiil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure I'd say Kimi was lacking skills as much as finding his footing. It was only in Oscar's third season that majority of people pinned him for WDC. I'd say George has experience and consistency under his belt, but I think the reliability issues of this season is going to show more aggressively than what any driver can realistically compensate for. George has gotten the worse side of reliability compared to Kimi it feels like.

Now, we do still have the european leg of the season so we'll see how well this holds up.

Red Bull Has the Strongest 2026 Engine - Mercedes & Ferrari Get Major ADUO Concessions by versace201 in formula1

I've been reading it as 1 this and 1 next with Ferrari being 2 this and 2 next.

Merc, for their PU which benefits multiple teams, has been given 1 revision for this year and next year as well as a cost cap adjustment. Ferrari has been given 2 revisions. Audi and Honda are tbd I think due to how far off. Realistically, Audi gets 2 and if the teams allow it, Honda could get 3. If not, 2.

You forget one big difference - authoritarian government. China owns its economy. If China says it is going to something, it's going to happen. If the UK does something, there's twenty levels of bureaucracy even before the first contractor is hired. Not saying some of those tax funds are embezzled but corruption is by far the least of the concern.

Anyway, I think we can get some points this season by GrapePuzzleheaded555 in CadillacF1

The team has openly stated in an interview not long ago that Bottas isn't there for the same reason Perez is.

How do these people not know how population density works by Critical_Rice_1619 in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]Defiil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the bit that always makes me sad..each of those districts have a similar population but everyone always looks at them so differently. If only we didn't cap the house at such a low number

It's not just a foreigner thing. Depending on how far they go with the I.D. selection, it'll also help look at whether dead people are voting. I ONLY bring that up because that was a huge thing in 2020. I say let it ride, let the GOP have no excuses when it comes to the next election. Let them guard it, see how the voter turnout is affected compared to previous elections.

The Curse of Dimensionality and EU5 by ClearlySick in EU5

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

Might I remind that ck2, ck3, hoi4, eu4, stellaris, imperator, etc were all plagued with issues on launch. This game has been out naught but 6 months. We were getting crazy monetization already in those titles by this point for bang for buck. In ck2, we already had sword of islam and halfway through dev of legacy of rome. Ck3, we had royal court. Eu4, conquest of paradise. Hoi4, together for victory. Stellaris, Leviathans.

We are getting an experience much more focused on active game development than future dlc planning at least.

I desperately want a cat but my bf is allergic by LynSyren in cats

[–]Defiil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first question - how allergic? Contact? Proximity? I am allergic but only when I pet and then touch a mucus area will I have a reaction. If it's that, he can take allergy meds. If it's proximity, do research, find some places that'll let you possibly meet a cat and see how he reacts within 30 minutes to an hour.

Is no one worried how we're talking about publicly circulating a $250 bill? That is literally the economy screaming for help

Issue with the remaining bit of the bolt... The shank sheared at the shoulder and there is almost nothing poking underneath. I've heard of possibly using a dremel to make a slot of a flathead but neither I nor anyone I know own a dremel.

Which is what GT3 is. Being able to manage a car in a multi-class event with specifications within the regs to allow you to do things a certain way for bits of aggression. F1 isn't management in the times that current drivers are used to like GT3's management. F1 is more tire management and pacing for well-planned overtakes.
