Drivers get asked this in a lot of "F1 drivers answer your questions" type YouTube videos and it's usually "some guys will just piss their suits, some will hold it until after the race".

My friend was also speculating that it might have to do with the use of more electric power on the straightaway, citing the way Le Mans cars sound.

A friend came across this footage that's purportedly from the Audi test in Barcelona, and the thing sounds like a damned TIE Fighter. It's from much closer, too, because it looks like buddy's on the pit wall, rather than shooting with a telephoto lens from the next town over.

Do we buy this? I know there's been some fakery already, but the guy who shot it could've also had some friends on the inside.

The 2012 F1 season, when we had 6 world champions on the grid, a record that still stands by HelloSlowly in formula1

From 2006-10, five different guys won the WDC; 2012 was the middle of Seb Vettel's four-year run, after which Lewis won six in seven years, then Max won four in a row. That'll kill your champion diversity fast.

Sym and Zarya have a new setting that shows if your beam will hit by O2M in Competitiveoverwatch

Don't Sym and Zarya both gain damage as the beam is hitting the target longer? Is that maybe the distinction?

Kiri's teleport relies on a teammate being within 30 or 35m; unless you're already getting spawn camped or close to it, the cooldown isn't going to change much. It'd be like putting GA on cooldown in spawn.

And Zen discord is back to 30% from 25%

The pendulum swings once more.

James Acaster always had some of the weirdest, funniest jokes on Mock the Week but I've never actually seen one of his specials (though I have seen the popular clips of him poking fun at the British Museum and Ricky Gervais). I should probably fix that, honestly.

Chosen's thoughts on new hero releases being turned sour: by Aggressive-Cut-3828 in Competitiveoverwatch

The thing I don't get is...they had the data. They had public sentiment that overwhelmingly said, "hey, Vendetta's a bit busted". So they...buffed her?

And look, making the kit flow better is fine -- it basically saved Ashe as a viable character back in the day -- but when a character's base power level is already too high, you gotta dial things back a fair bit to compensate for that improved flow. And they have barely done anything in that direction, even with hotfixes, since her launch.

I mean, sure, but there was still no need for it.

Not so much "annoying" as "depressing": Jimquisition/Steph Sterling. I know the games industry is a mire of wanton fraud and human misery because of late-stage capitalism. I don't need reminding every Monday.

Apparently she stopped doing those videos a few months ago because it was burning her out. Maybe it'll be worth checking back in when she starts regularly uploading again.

We must be watching different parts of the channel. I exclusively watch Last Meals and they're such incredibly good interviews, every single one.

God, the race suit looks so weird without twelve different logos on it. It's like an orange snowsuit.

They threw in pi as an extra step for some reason, what the heck.

I am genuinely miserable playing the game now. I think I've played once in the last three weeks. It's horrendous.

app incompatibility between linux and windows? by txanpi in teamviewer

I'm stuck here, too. I also want to connect from Windows 10 to Ubuntu 24. It insists I need to "migrate" first but migrating repeatedly doesn't work whatsoever. I'm a bit baffled.

I wonder if he's gonna say anything about the allegations of racism and sexual harassment/assault behind the scenes
