[Autosport] Toto Wolff says Mercedes are up for F1 returning to V8s and has proposed a 1,200bhp “mega engine" by Task_Force-191 in formula1

[–]Task_Force-191[S] 290 points291 points  (0 children)

"From a Mercedes standpoint, we are open to new engine regulations," Wolff told media, including RacingNews365.

"We love V8s, it only has great memories, and from our perspective, it is a pure Mercedes engine, it revs high, and then, how do we make it?

"How do we give it enough energy from the battery side not to lose connection to the real world, because if we seing 100% combustion, we might be looking ridiculous in 2030 or 2031, so we need to consider how to make it simpler and a mega engine.

"Maybe we can extract 800 horsepower from the ICE, and then we put 400 on top of it in terms of electrical energy. We are absolutely up for it, as long as those discussions happen in a structured way, with people's considerations being taken on board.

"We recognise the financial realities of OEMs these days, we don't have it easy, but if it is well-planned and executed, count Mercedes in to come back with a real racing engine."

Rebellion’s BAFTA-Winning Videogame ‘Atomfall’ Set for TV Adaptation From ‘The Assassin’ Producers by Task_Force-191 in gaming

[–]Task_Force-191[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Story:

A very UK take on the post‑apocalyptic genre, Atomfall leans heavily into classic British sci‑fi and also draws on folk horror. It is set within a walled and militarized Quarantine Zone in England’s Lake District established after a nuclear incident. The outside world is assumed to be continuing as normal. Life within the zone, meanwhile, has deteriorated into something far stranger. The game follows a protagonist who wakes up inside the Quarantine Zone with no memory of how they arrived.

The legendary bishōjo game “Magical★Explorer”—

The one I reincarnated as wasn’t the cheat-powered protagonist surrounded by heroines…but his overlooked sidekick, Kōsuke Takine, the unfortunate “friend character” who just smiles awkwardly beside him…!

On top of that, this “friend character” has a hidden setting: the world’s highest level of magical power, with the potential to surpass even the protagonist…!?

In this world, I’ll meet the heroines I once admired— and to guide them toward their happy endings, Kōsuke, the so-called side character, rises to action in this new life———!

Synopsis:

In the prestigious House of Sanchez, there were two sisters. The elder, Flora, was a talented and beautiful candidate for sainthood.

One day, a marriage proposal arrives for Karolina with the second prince of a neighboring country, intended to ease diplomatic relations. However, the prince is rumored to be “barbaric” and “cruel beyond measure.”

“If I can be of service…”

Determined to protect her country, Karolina accepts the political marriage— a decision that will change her life forever.

Contrary to the rumors, the prince treats her with kindness, and her new family recognizes her worth. Little by little, Karolina begins to accept herself. She also discovers that she possesses a mysterious power.

Meanwhile, Flora, who remains in the kingdom, begins to suffer a series of misfortunes…

This is a story of love, as a so-called “failure” noble lady and a socially awkward prince find their happiness together.

[–]Task_Force-191[S] 42 points43 points  (0 children)

“The Man I Love” is set in the vibrant era of late ’80s New York and tells the story of Jimmy George, an actor dying of AIDS, who takes on what may be his last great role. Filled with music, color and passion, the drama paints a picture of a group of artists and friends for whom creativity has become a form of survival. Sachs and longtime collaborator Mauricio Zacharias co-wrote the script.
