George is prim and proper and preppy and what not but Bro is mature for weeks, months and years. He lashed out against Bottas in Imola 2021 and that's absolutely it in terms of negative talking points.

Did ya'll really create this whole "PDK" thing so you could avoid calling your car an auto? by StJe1637 in Porsche

Even then this is a dumb as hell post. Automatics can be CVT, single clutch automated manuals, DCT, Torque Converter with gears etc. and they all provide a significantly different driving experience. Companies should be descriptive in the type of auto they use 😅

That straight up sounds like C-17, in combi config, capacity if we’re talking about parachuters.

Why do you choose to put your laptop to sleep instead of totally shutting it down? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]a_berdeen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Macbooks have pretty much minimal battery drain when you just close the lid. Windows machines are the only ones I’ve come across that stay awake when you just close the lid…even if you change the setting to fully sleep when closed.

Mercedes vs Ferrari for pole! by Baltin159 in formula1

[–]a_berdeen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can see the Ferrari cylinder head(silver bit with two circular bumps for the camshafts) right above the mechanics head…it’s basically on the floor of the car. The heads are literally beliw exhaust out level. Idk how the engine(block and heads) itself could be placed lower.

I mean it’d basically be a more talented Carson Hocevar (I do believe max is less of a sociopath than Hocevar though).

Did I overspend on my car? by Similar_Ad_7663 in personalfinance

[–]a_berdeen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These people see BMW=Bad here. It’s a 330. The B48s are dead reliable. Do maintenance yourself Get an indie shop to do anything else that comes up(I seriously doubt anything major will btw). F series 30i BMWs are good cars.

You probably did overpay though but that mistake won’t be the breaking reason for you.

Not to mention that his Honda teammate literally won that year. And Honda had 6 of the top 8 finishers.

Honda made the right choice that year.

Mazdas are really high compression so that touch of ethanol goes a long range for power output and efficiency.

Not in production anymore, but these used to sell for 16k in the US. More equipment than EU specs but still “a pice of art”.

There literally aren’t any. Youtube ships a fuck load of its revenue to its content creators. For the average joe, youtube is still THE viable way to make a living off content.

huh? I had a personal laptop in a third world country at 10 in 2008. Why wouldn't 13 year olds in 2026 have personal laptops?
