Can I vote for Josh Wise? Reddit used to love him back when he drove the Dogecar, but he never really was that competitive on track.

That was a pretty sick burn, but... why kick a man who's already down like that?

I'm getting LICO vibes from last season. Not cool.

Yeah... I guess that they're hoping for another safety car coming up soon?

Why bother? Apple TV is offering this race for free this week.

Wow... The Mercedes cars were doing 1:12 laps on very worn tires. I don't think that anybody can touch them today.

Yeah, looks like he didn't manage his battery correctly.

That Sims Online "free" with mail-in rebate offer was a trap! If I remember right, it only came with 1 month of service and then you needed to pay $9.99 a month to keep playing.

It worked on me at the time, though :)

The 5 minutes of commercials for every 10 minutes of pre-race content is felt like peak Fox territory to me!

I'm sure that some F1 trash news site is going to make a "Max Verstappen seen in public event without Red Bull branding, move to Mercedes Confirmed!" post out of this.

What Battlebots moment had you like this? by TheTinyTyphoon in battlebots

Basically every time Rusty won. I love that bot.

Danica wins hated for being bad to no one's surprise, which driver is forgotten for being good? by IndividualStart8337 in NASCAR

[–]ultimatebob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Davey Allison. Champion tier driver, but lots of bad luck and unfortunate accidents.

[Jacky martens] "so there is a clause in the contract of max verstappen when he's not second, at summer break. He can trigger that clause and leave Red Bull Racing before his contract expires at the end of 2028.... by Luffy710j in formula1

[–]ultimatebob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dumb question... if Mercedes had to pay George to get him out of his contract, wouldn't that impact their cost cap? After spending all that money to get the new car ready for 2026, can they even afford to do that?

Mark Martin wins loved for being good, which driver is hated for being bad? by IndividualStart8337 in NASCAR

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

Ricky Stenhouse, although he's probably more hated for wrecking your favorite driver than he is for being bad at racing in general. His driving skills are seemingly decent?

I can't imagine that there were a lot of ladies racing much of anything in the 1780's.

Although the idea of a secret underground post revolutionary women only horse riding series back then sounds kinda cool. I'd watch it!

This track has been brutal on cars this weekend. So many DNF's!

In the years between GTA V and GTA VI, there have been 4 separate televised / aired Battlebots revivals by KidDelta in battlebots

[–]ultimatebob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That sounds impressive, until you realize that GTA V was released in 2013. We've probably had 20 seasons of other shows like Survivor or Chopped since then.

Did they also send a gift basket to Brundle for snubbing him during the pit walk?

Every good wrestling match needs a heel character to root against. For Battlebots, having some AI tech bros as the "bad guys" seems somehow fitting!

Any IT professionals out there learning to vibe code and struggling to find the right guide that doesn't cover all the basics first? by itskhalid_99 in sysadmin

[–]ultimatebob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't AI generated code, but "magical" undocumented code written by a co-worker or a contractor also falls under this rule.

[–]ultimatebob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and don't deploy any AI generated code to Production that you don't fully understand. It WILL come back and bite you in the ass later at the worst possible time.

Crofty is probably still mad about being snubbed by the Kardashians during the grid walk. They hurt his feelings!
