I like Fred. He’s undoubtedly trying to protect an advantage that his team is enjoying, but he goes about it in a more open and honest way than what we often see from a TP.

I’m smoking weed about it.

That’s incredible lol


That has to feel terrible mentally and physically.


Well done mate! Awesome to see something taken back from a closed space and shared for everyone to enjoy. Thank you for working on it!


Was hoping to see Hamilton higher up the order.
If those practice starts on the grid were any indication it might not take him long to make up some positions.


I’m not sure we know enough about his/their exit from Red Bull to know for sure how much information he had about an outgoing manufacturer. IIRC Red Bull were recruiting heavily from Mercedes and other teams PU divisions too, not just bringing in everyone from Honda.
I would assume Aston Martin trusted Honda to rebuild with people who had previous experience as much as possible and for whatever reason that didn’t happen to the extent they expected. The way he’s quoted in the article makes it sound like the people at AM didn’t do their due diligence until it was already too late, which is absolutely on them.
Paging @bitofarambler@crazypeople.online, maybe this is something in your area of expertise? Or maybe a future topic for !travel@crazypeople.online?


Hopefully Honda can get these issues sorted before too many embarrassing retirements. What a shame.
Thank fuck. Maybe her commentary style fits better in other categories but I didn’t enjoy her time on air. For me it always felt really out of touch and forced whether she was interviewing drivers or just trying to make “normal” racing commentary with the rest of the broadcast team.
Does this build have the vote traffic updates mentioned in this thread or will that come in a later/bigger release?
As always thank you all for the hard work that goes into building and maintaining this project. 💚


Great to hear! Thanks for all the time and effort that goes into supporting this platform.


It is wild as fuck that new PU manufacturers joined the grid this year and are turning laps reliably, but Honda with years of F1 PU data and experience can’t seem to keep theirs from destroying itself yet again. Yikes.
At least we can count on Fernando to deliver some spicy one liners.



Something has been preventing all the servers and users from showing up on join-lemmy.org for the last couple days. I sent Des a DM about it yesterday before I realized you were the one managing it. 😅

No problem mate. 💚


Blocks are managed from your profile settings-


The rooms we had issues with were public rooms that were discoverable via Matrix, with a couple of links on the web to direct people to them. The links to the rooms still exist in the same places, but ever since converting them to XMPP links rather than Matrix ones the traffickers have disappeared. I couldn’t tell you if that’s because XMPP is less popular with that crowd or if the tools they’re using to discover and spam them don’t work on XMPP. Either way it was a welcome change.
Fresh RPM hell yeah!
