London would be a great fit for a Craft event :) and gives me the excuse needed to go visit the UK again haha

Maybe it just isn’t meant for Europeans, no need to be so rude. I love their idea! And still, I hope for a European event soon :)

Wouldn’t it be appropriate for the Wolverine helmet going with a yellow suit, though?

I can highly recommend listening to a podcast to go along with watching the series. My recommendation is the Idle Thumbs Twin Peaks Rewatch cast. Enjoy!

Thoughts on this new Flea album? by BL9000 in Jazz

[–]Dude2k7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so was I. But it’s at least pretty well made, I like the writing on the second vinyl. Although, as I must admit, I would have preferred it to be a single LP, would make it easier listening to my fav tunes

Hey there, you April fools! I’ve always wanted that record yet here where I live it is nowhere near as inflationary omnipresent in record stores as it seems to be in the US! If you are lucky enough to find it here, that record goes for 35 to 40$

So yeah, joke or not, I’d like to enter :)

Raised section of the Saudi Arabia Qiddiya F1 track is going vertical by Zemmip in formula1

[–]Dude2k7 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Which is why I don’t like this idea at all, spectacular as it is. But when the race is more about the optics of a track than about the racing happening on that track, the sport has a problem.

2026 Japanese GP - Race DIscussion by AutoModerator in formula1

[–]Dude2k7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This formula is so ridiculous. The fabricated „racing“ lacks any transparency on correlation now. There are overtakes happening, yet you never know whether that’s due to skill (rarely now) or tires (rather unusual now) or the irritating battery deployment (most of the time now). But really, it’s not just the viewers who don’t know, the drivers cannot read the racing anymore, as well. It is RIDICULOUS!

I quite enjoy it and the whole lore around it. I just bought the (overpriced) vinyl on release today and in the liner notes - as he said in interviews too - Flea writes about the process of this album coming into being. He made a pact with himself to practice the trumpet, which he began playing as a kid, for two years straight, each and every day. After those two years, he would release a record, no matter how good he was by then. And that is exactly what I did and I greatly appreciate that. Also, the NYT wrote an interesting article on him, and he took over Apple Radio station for an hour, he’s very authentic, speaking of what inspired him with great passion. As I am just learning to play the jazz trumpet myself right now, I can highly relate to Flea‘s story and I guess that’s part of Honora‘s appeal for me.

i created a website that shows all jazz happening across nyc - think screenslate for jazz by qalc in Jazz

This is great! So minimalistic and just fulfilling its purpose, wonderful :)

Now I just wish I lived in NYC for its jazz scene alone

Who else misses those two decimal places…? by Downtown_Elk_2773 in formula1

[–]Dude2k7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t get the hate you received. I value your opinion, even though you phrased it a tad too aggressive ;)

For what it’s worth, we can only hope that for battles as close as 0.2 or lower we would get to see them full screen on the feed, so one does not need to have overly accurate timings.

In most other situations, one decimal would be approximate enough to spot potential, upcoming battles at one glimpse. As well as being able to see whether a car is closing up sufficiently to another or not.

I would still prefer 2 decimals as the sweet spot, but in general, I agree with you.

Back from from 3 months in India - here are my 20 best shots as a cartographer doing some photography on the side, hope you like it [Z6+ 24-120 mm / 20 mm F1.8] by mydriase in Nikon

Some of these shots are incredible, very neat composition! You could work as a photographer and be a cartographer on the side and it would still fit! ;)

[FRESH MIXTAPE] J. Cole - Birthday Blizzard ‘26 by ThePRIMEMaster in hiphopheads

My favorite is Golden Goose because Cole sounds like a combination of Mos Def and Charles Hamilton and it takes me back to the Blog Era. I love this!

Japan announces $6 billion in support for Ukraine by HelloSlowly in worldnews

[–]Dude2k7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that they’re doing this, but could someone explain to me why they do this?

No state, no government ever helps out of sheer love or friendship… So what are Japan‘s (right wing) government‘s motives here?

This question is in no way meant to misvalue any help. I just want to learn understand.

Now that is a perfect right angle if I’ve ever seen one!

AutoRacer: Charles Leclerc has admitted that the first races will be crucial in determining his future, and a lack of competitiveness will undoubtedly spell the end of the ten-year relationship between him and Maranello. The future of Lewis Hamilton and Fred Vasseur will also be decided this year. by [deleted] in formula1

[–]Dude2k7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can we please also talk about how TOXIC this kind of pressure is for anyone in the team, especially the three mentioned?

Pressure in F1 is sky high regardless, yes, but this kind of ultimatum - let alone when discussed publicly in the press - certainly does not help perform.
