Can confirm Genovia doesn't a fuck about IUPAC and its naming conventions.
Ferrari's posters remain on point. And fingers crossed for a Ferrari win in Monaco.
Ferrari's Imola F1 upgrade will test its audacious Red Bull theory
Ferrari claims its a "small step" away from Red Bull. So will its major Imola F1 upgrade provide just that?
The eight key changes Ferrari has made to its F1 car for Imola
A technical write-up of the upgrade package Ferrari will bring to the SF-24 in Imola.
Yeah, to me retirement seems like the most likely outcome if he leaves Red Bull.
AI and a large sample group allowed researchers to uncover key differences between the brains of those who experience psychosis and those who don't.

I'm impressed Charles managed to make the one-stop strategy work. It's a shame he didn't do a better job in qualifying. He could have races Checo harder. Excellent race by Sainz. He seems on it this year. I hope he finds a good race seat. He deserves it.
McLaren announce several organisational changes as new signing David Sanchez leaves team
McLaren have made another raft of changes to their technical department following the first three rounds of the 2024 season, with David Sanchez departing the organisation just a few months on from starting in his new role.
“Following thoughtful discussions between David Sanchez and the team leadership, the mutual decision has been taken for David to leave the team.
“Upon our joint reflection, it became apparent that the role, responsibilities, and ambitions associated with David’s position did not align with our original expectations when he agreed to join us in February 2023.
“Recognising this misalignment, both David and I agreed that it would be best to part ways now, so to enable him to pursue other opportunities that will better leverage the full scale and breadth of his remarkable skillset.
On paper yes but David Sánchez and Rob Marshall have only just begun at McLaren. The evolutions of the MCL38 and the MCL39 will be the first to be fully developed under this structure. My guess is this year's car was designed by Peter Prodromou.
McLaren does. Technically, they have had it since last year but it's in full effect as of this season. They have Peter Prodromou as Technical Director, Aerodynamics; David Sanchez as Technical Director, Car Concept & Performance; and Rob Marshall as Technical Director, Engineering & Design. There's also Neil Houldey as Deputy Technical Director, Engineering and Design.
A bit off-topic but, given the lap time that Max (and Charles) managed to put in this qualifying session, if the race is close, either of them might be tempted to get the fastest lap point and break Pedro de la Rosa's record this year.
To me it's encouraging the fact that Ferrari didn't take a step back with the developments introduced last year. Little by little Fred's influence is being felt. The strategy has improved and the number of errors have gone down. I'm less worried about them this year.
Ferrari made a massive step in race pace vs last year (~1.4s/lap), but the RB20 is the car to beat!

They had the same pace over a race distance However, Verstappen had minimal tyre wear (even on the softs!), indicating that he was not even pushing 100%😳 Crazy consistency👌
I hope Ferrari's pace is strong enough to put up a fight. The data of the long runs suggest that RBR is stronger on the C3, but Ferrari is stronger on the C1, which over a race distance puts them even. It's possible (and likely) that RBR have more pace in reserve, but the gap shouldn't be unsurmountable.
Ferrari's suspiciously good race sim is keeping F1 2024 intrigue alive
The Red Bull RB20 is the slam dunk consensus pick as F1 2024's initial fastest car - but a race simulation by Carlos Sainz in the Ferrari SF-24 suggests the season is far from over
The average of the timings of the race sims are off by 10s but Mark Hughes's remarks remain valid: the Ferrari was much faster than the Red Bull. It's obvious Red Bull is holding back performance but, how much? In any case, Ferrari might give Red Bull a harder time this year.
I was under the impression that it was set on the medium (C3). Is that not the case?
So is that 1m31.344 from Verstappen ominous or it's just preseason testing and times don't matter?
Yep. He plays Frasier
Firefox for android doesn't connect to cloudflare dns using the DoH protocol
I've configured my android phone to connect to cloudflare dns using the one.one.one.one server. When I go to https://1.1.1.1/help in Firefox for android, the page shows that it cannot use the DoH protocol, but Dot works. That wouldn't be too much of a problem but, since Firefox has rolled out ECH and it requires DoH, Firefox won't be using ECH. Is there a way to fix that. Thanks.
P. S.: I should point out that when I visit cloudflare's dns help page chrome for android does use DoH.
Props to you for grasping the concept of wet bulb temperature and getting why it's always lower or equal to the dry bulb temperature. It's not exactly obvious why that's the case.
I fell in love with that car the moment I saw it. The two-tone versions with the carbon fibre exposed are chef's kiss
I'm also partial to Sync. It's impressive how much of the UX was kept in making the transition to the Fediverse. I honestly can't tell the difference between the previous Reddit client and the current Lemmy client
