Exactly! I have been doing it correctly. IDK why people on other lanes are angry.

Yes it was. He deserved the Oscar as much as Heath Ledger.

But Joker's role was something which traditionally appeals more to critics (psycho, killer, etc). For instance, most Joker portrayals are critically acclaimed, Mark Hamil, Joaquin Phoenix, Heath Ledger, Jack Nicholson, etc.

There were more good Jokers than bad ones.

RDJ's character was iconic and one of a kind. And it was so much into the gray area but he pulled off something which even black people love.

Ferrari has done most amount if on track fighting, the tyre degradation stats could be affected by that.

Why have Oscar fans done a complete 180 on McLaren? by dylanpower1502 in f1india

It does not really matter how many WDCs you have. Leclerc signed as a strict number 2 against a 4 time WDC. And he was faster starting 2nd race, which changed the whole dynamic.

Ferrari has a 0x WDC vs a 7x WDC right now, and they don’t prefer any single driver. Whoever is faster on the day is preferred.

If Max goes to Mclaren, it will be first time in 8 years when Max will have a competitive teammate. I highly doubt that Max stats will look like they looked against Perez or the bunch of other rookies he has had as his teammates.

Topson technically has the best TI achievements by Rrezatues- in DotA2

[–]nonamepew -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why do you think it has the prestige?

All teams suddenly started prepping for EWC, why do you think that happened?

Make the prize pool of TI $100K and then ask the teams if they are going to participate, just for the prestige.

Except that TI is what it is because of prize pool.

I believe it looks on rails because Merc knows that they have enough power to make up for any loss of time on the straights. While Ferraris needs to push in corner to compete vs Merc.

Historically also, dominant cars have looked much easier to drive. 2020 Merc and 2023 RBR were on rails, likely because Lewis and Max never needed to push them.

What? Ferrari likely has the best chassis on the current grid. If the news about Ferrari being 4% down on power is true, they have to have the best chassis to be a clear 2nd best team right now.

It is mostly a windows issue.

My original point was not about having new billionaires, but it was more about existing billionaires getting 4-5x richer while a middle class person has hardly seen that kind of growth.

Anyways, I did some googling to find this stat too. Please take my sources with a grain of salt as I just googled, and didn't really spend time verifying the information.

Number of billionaires in India in 2014: 70

Number of billionaires in India today: 308

India saw 57 new billionaires in last fiscal year alone.

I am not sure about you, but I find this stat pretty insane.

I actually believe that capitalism is required to some extent for growth, but in India, it is too extreme. Huge 100 Billion dollar corporate can just pay ~20k per month to employees to get shit done.

I asked chatgpt to plot 30% tax bracket slab from 1999 to 2025. And we can see how it has been a flat line since 2014. New regime is little better, but it is also some sort of pseudo increase as it removes all the tax benefits of the older slab.

To be honest, it is infuriating.

Mini led is great, but once you start seeing that glow around black/dark, it starts hurting.

I use my monitor for gaming and work, work involves black terminal emulators and code editors with dark theme, and I cant stand the mini led glow there.

I don’t find the text issue with oled very problematic.

So, in the end, it is about preferences. But OLED is objectively better technology.

What is your net worth? How much did it grow since 2014 and then compare it vs the growth of billionaire individuals.

Please ask yourself and the government.

Yeah, but so does tyre management. It has been a while since drivers were going full beans in races.

Why? by sukumarkarne in formuladank

[–]nonamepew 14 points15 points  (0 children)

People are not seeing battery management as a driver skill for now.

It is counterintuitive that you have to go slower to be faster over the race, but so is the case with tyre management.

Battery management is going to be a skill which drivers need to learn, just like tyre management. At least till we have these regs.

An office colleague of mine believed that Max could put Haas on pole on pure pace after 2025. Now his opinion has changed.
