My only complaint is that there’s no force feedback on the keys but I’ve kinda got used to it now. But just look at this thing 🤩



When you said you'd spent 2 grand on a synth I assumed it was a huge analogue modular monster, but this thing looks nice.

It’s tiny but honestly it’s worth the money compared to other stuff I was looking at, especially since I was getting it more to just mess around with than do any serious music production. I don’t have to hook it up a computer and start messing around in a music production suite and a bunch of different plug ins to make a song I can just flick this thing on and do everything on it. My only real complaint so far is that the sequencer is kinda underwhelming and it’s been easier for me to just play something out and loop it to get the sound I want in some situations.

WARNING! INTRUDERS DETECTED

Innovation is cool when it's a team that comes up with a big leap that makes them contenders when they weren't before.

When it's a team that has won the last six titles on a trot it just means you'll have a boring season as they win the seventh.

No, it's boring because the same team has had by far the best car for 7 years. Sure it's on other teams to catch up but they haven't and it's boring.

It'll get entertaining when Bottas accidentally pulls his steering wheel off instead of pulling back, torpedoing him into the merc in front of him.


Serious question: Why is Grosjean still driving for haas? Or the other guy, for that matter, whatshisname?
Is there really 0 young talent available to push into a car and see what happens?

Being a fan of a team is far inferior to watching the sport through the lens of hatred.

I urge anyone suffering because their team or driver of choice is having a bad time to channel that suffering into a burning desire to watch another team or driver suffer. Learn to sustain yourself on the tears of others, you won't regret it.

We haven't won a race since 2012, the last year Lewis raced for us. So really it's 9 years we have eaten poo poo, but same OP.

This really is the most enjoyable way to approach the sport. It even makes reading /r/f1 fun.

Steiner is a masochist who can only become aroused by Grosjean driving into random poo poo for no reason.

I can’t actually remember whether raising or lowering the steering rack in relation to the hubs induces toe out so I would run that past the suspension guys before going straight to manufacturing

I dont understand how toeing the wheels in (or out) gives you an advantage. I assume it does, unless this system is like Merc just teabagging the other teams as they go 1-2 in the first 10 GPs

"look at us wiggle our wheels about and still crush you, FAILERRAI!"
