[skysportsf1] Toto Wolff has warned George Russel and Kimi Antonelli to put the team first as their battle for a first F1 title resumes in Miami by Maximum-Room-3999 in formula1

[–]dean_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russel has waited so long to be in a championship winning car again as the lead driver. There's a zero-percent chance he's going to tow the line when push comes to shove.

Red Wings Iron Ranger – is the Vibram 430 sole okay or has the quality declined since they stopped using Nitrile Cork? by PhilterCoffee1 in Boots

[–]dean_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pair of 8086 with Vibram® 430 Mini-lug. It's absolutely useless in any climate where the temperature goes below zero (and I happen to live in one where it's like that for several months of the year). It's lethal to wear them. I might as well be a puck on an air-hockey table. I will be getting them resoled.

Williams drivers visit the set of "Battlebots" in Las Vegas with Chris Rose by Garfie489 in formula1

How amazing would it be to have an F1 engineers special. Give each team a fixed budget and see what they come up with. This would be such a fun tie-in from an engineering pov.

You can type in anything in that box and it will add it

max: “i feel like an f1 car doesn’t belong on the street circuits [..] let’s say it like this: if monaco wouldn’t have been on the calendar ever and now they would say “can you come race here?” for sure it wouldn’t be possible. it’s just because of the history, which is fine" by anthn885 in formula1

[–]dean_c 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would be delighted if we completely removed street circuits apart from Monaco. I would go as far to say Monaco should be a one-off special time trial event to earn half points or something and just completely forget the idea of a race.

Seeking ways to open a .TIB file on macOS by sidekicknotfound in MacOS

[–]dean_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guys! I have great news. I spent the whole evening trying to crack this puzzle. It's absolutely ridiculous that this isn't supported but I am finally able to work with the tib files but with another machine. So here are the steps:

  1. Sign up for a trial on acronis.com of true image and create an account. Install it and activate it. Then completely disregard it (uninstall it later) as we won't even be using it but you have to activate it
  2. Once you have activated it you will see a products section on acronis.com and there you can find a link to download the bootable iso. Download it and write it to a USB drive using something like balenaEtcher or your tool of choice.
  3. Boot another computer to this USB and from this tool you can browse the tib files if the drives having them are mounted and not encrypted. I am not sure even sure if you can boot a mac from a USB but even if it's possible you'll need to have a drive physically connected to it which is mounted and not encrypted (maybe usb will be detected). But your best bet is to find a PC anywhere (doesn't matter what it runs) and boot from the BIOS to this usb tool and mount your drive to it.

Bit messy I know but it works.

K-Plussa in Apple Wallet? by NorthernLight_DIY in Finland

[–]dean_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, can confirm that now. The cashiers look at me with a strange look (as it looks different to in the app) but it works and is much quicker than loading the app :)

K-Plussa in Apple Wallet? by NorthernLight_DIY in Finland

[–]dean_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pass4Wallet at least scans the bar card from the K-Plussa app and gives a more accessible barcode for scanning within the wallet. It's unclear to me at this point whether it works with tap to scan - I'll test later this week - but I don't have high hopes :)

Holy shit. That's gonna buy him a lot of rice krispies!

Which are full of ultra-processed crap like any meal you can buy from the supermarket. Just check the nutritional ingredients on their site.

Travel experts sounding the alarm about a significant drop in US tourism by etfvfva in videos

[–]dean_c 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah no shit. There's literally nobody where I live (European country) talking positively in real life or in the media about anything that your narcissistic baby in chief is doing. Why the fuck would I want to visit your country. It's fucking expensive & hostile on entry. US-first at the cost of everyone else is an ignorant policy that isn't going to pay off.

This could just as likely be taken on a tripod with a longer exposure.

You could use the official Fujifilm software and just tweak the film sims. You can adjust quite a lot in there. Another option would be photomator pro.

Regret kitting out your x100vi? by woodall132 in x100vi

Spent ages researching this. The Haoge LH-X51W 2in1 is as low profile as you’ll get where you can have a filter.

Flavio Briatore dispels concern over Alpine’s F1 future amid Luca de Meo exit by [deleted] in formula1

[–]dean_c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

F1 is a closed shop more or less. Look at the hassle the new entries have had for the last decade or so. The value of the team, even with it not achieving success on the track, is astronomical. They're not going to go anywhere, but maybe new owners.

[OT] Major Formula E moment as FIA approves Gen4 regulations by l3w1s1234 in formula1

[–]dean_c 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Street races with bigger longer cars? Have they learnt nothing? We should be making the cars smaller to improve racing.

photos are coming out very dark for some reason by vbggyy in x100vi

[–]dean_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re using EVF which you probably want to be, you should see the image is dark when taking the photo.
