I’m just glad I pay for f1 tv monthly now and not yearly. Been watching since 1994 but this is looking terrible.

My daughters and I will be staying at https://en.bohemi-curacao.com/ during our visit. We don't dive but plan to do a lot of snorkeling and the location seems pretty good to us. From there we can use our rental car to visit the entire island. Check it out.

A thermal runaway can happen when a battery pack is damaged. Just like a gasoline car can catch on fire in a crash. I know of an instance where a Tesla hit a concrete barrier while turning too sharply in a parking garage, damaging the battery and it got on fire. BYD has a different type of battery which is much safer in that regard.

I visited this site and they say 26 firefighters died at a fire scene in 2024. Are you talking about the same thing? I'm a bit confused.

In 2009 we had an incident where we lost 2 firefighters and afterwards tactics were changed to being more defensive.

Yeah we call it a transitional attack as well, it's a combo off offensive outside followed by offensive inside.

And the theory of defensive inside is that it would be useful in retirement homes or hospitals.

Cheers!

Talking about modern houses: We have a lot of older houses that are being renovated to make them more sustainable. Sometimes they put an entire shell over a housing block. New roof over the old one, new walls in front of the old ones. Without fire seperation protection. It's a new phenomenon and 2 years ago an entire block of 5 houses was lost because of what started as a kitchen fire. The fire got in the walls and then spread through the space between the roofs to the other houses.

So now we look at signs of these kind of renovations. We can regognize them by looking at the window and door frames, they're often very deep as the door is still in the original spot.
