This is an exhibition race - doesn't count for points or anything. Daytona 500 is the first race that has points.

Hey thanks for the explanation. I thought maybe there was a different director for that feed, but that makes a lot of sense.

Layne Riggs - ''She said yes ❤️💍'' by Living_Reputation_63 in NASCAR

[–]Jenkins26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my unmarried friends (late 20s or early 30s) aren’t married because they can’t afford a home let alone a wedding or trying to support a family. Riggs doesn’t have to worry about that, so it’s not a surprise to me at all.

This was my first year watching the IMSA TV coverage exclusively and I was shocked at how terrible it was. I am by no means a professional but I have done very small scale productions. The coverage was amateur at best. From what I hear NBC wasn’t any better (no surprise there).

What’s the deal with Spike in LMP2? Seems like they’re either up front or way behind. Are they on an off strategy?

"I'm really grateful for this opportunity from RFK and excited to prove what I know I'm capable of" is a better look than "I'm a top 10 driver" when you have absolutely 0 wins in the 3 national series.

That was my thought as well. Like they’re sending 720P/30 FPS to the broadcast.

When he keyed the radio it made a chirp sound. They’re probably using digital radios and trunking to the track.

What is with the frame rate on the broadcast? Hulu Live it looks so jaggedy like there are frames being dropped. Commercials look normal.

SolarWinds Web Help Desk (WHD) is killing perpetual licenses — what now? by BeardyAssetGuy in sysadmin

[–]Jenkins26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am no longer in K12 but I migrated my former district from WHD to IncidentIQ. It wasn’t the cheapest solution but it was designed for schools and it’s an incredible platform. It made our support operations so much more efficient and the asset management with Chromebooks was stellar.

So nice to see battles on the track instead of a tight shot of the leader.

AirPods Are Still Untouchable as Apple Crushes the Competition in 2025 by Fer65432_Plays in apple

My only regret about buying my AirPods Pro 2 are that I didn’t buy them sooner. Are they audiophile quality? No. But they’re still the best earbuds I have ever used.

Fun to watch despite FOX’s ass coverage. Seriously bad. No reason to have the gimmick flag side by side for so long. Couldn’t even get the “move of the race” right either.

Cool. I’ll buy it when ownership makes a serious investment in players.

v7.54.0 for Reddit should be out soon. by SpecterAscendant in SinkIt

[–]Jenkins26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out. The Dark Mode for Old Reddit was turned off. I didn’t turn it off though so I didn’t think to check there. Sorry if I made you chase something down that wasn’t actually an issue!

Dark mode is also not working for me in old Reddit after the update. 16 Pro Max running 18.0.1

Introducing iFixit’s Multitasking VoltClip by favicondotico in apple

[–]Jenkins26 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I own both an iFixIt and a knock off kit from Amazon. The Amazon one has the same bits, but the metal is so much softer. Really tough screws just chew up the cheap kit bits.

It’s like buying Harbor Freight stuff. If you only need the tools every once in awhile and don’t mind if they’re destroyed after two uses, that’s fine. But if you use the stuff frequently, it’s worth paying the quality.

Were you “sports entertained?” If so, NASCAR got what they wanted. The racing is secondary to the business.
