Lemmy.world (and some others) were hacked
  • Liftoff hasn't acknowledged me as logged in when voting or commenting for the last day, despite showing it on my user tab. I'm assuming that's related to the recent hack, but I've tried clearing the cash, logging in and out, and restarting the app with no success.

  • I'm not talking about advertising money, I'm talking about them contributing to the fees paid to the FIA to host the actual Grand Prix. The organizers lost money on that race most years. It ran, and 2019 was no exception.

    Truth.
  • I'd like to believe my Honda Ridgeline is the exception to this, but truck bros don't acknowledge it as a real truck anyway.

    lemmy.world Motorcycle Track Days - Lemmy.world

    A community for motorcycle track day enthusiasts, from Novice to Advanced. List of schools and track day organizations cross-posted from /r/trackdays on Reddit with gracious thanks to /u/Jeff505 and /u/gconsier and a few of my own additions. If you ride with an organization that’s not on the list, p...

    Hello fellow motorcycle fanatics! I wanted to make a plug for /c/trackdays, a community I formed for anyone interested in getting into track riding and/or club racing around the country. The subreddit of the same name has been a great resource, and I'm hoping to build a worthy counterpart for anyone that's migrated over to Lemmy. I've compiled a pretty extensive list of track day organizations, racing schools, and sanctioning bodies for club racing, and I hope it'll make a worthy addition to the motorcycle-focused communities on here!

  • There can't be more than one GP with the same name, which is why we've had names like the Luxembourg, San Marino, European, Pacific GPs, etc.

    GM executive expects FIA decision soon on Andretti Cadillac's Formula One bid
  • The rest of the teams don't want to expand the grid because they believe it'll make their entries less valuable should any of the owners decide to sell.

    GM executive expects FIA decision soon on Andretti Cadillac's Formula One bid
  • Who on the grid does? Ferrari, Alpine, Honda, and Mercedes build engines, outside of that the rest of the teams are building tightly regulated cars. Andretti is one of the biggest names in American motorsport, they're attempting to bring in a new engine supplier and one of the biggest car companies in the world, and they have the money to do it. What more can be reasonably asked of them?

    [@tgruener] Aston Martin made sure their drivers wouldn't get any penalties before protesting. Also confirmation gravel traps will be fitted outside T9 and T10 at Red Bull Ring with avail from MotoGP.
  • Gravel traps can catch parts of a bike or rider and cause them to roll/tumble, which is almost guaranteed to cause more serious injuries than sliding across tarmac. Just as a recent example, Pol Espargaro suffered serious injuries at Portimão earlier this year after sliding into a gravel trap and getting hit by his own bike.

    Conservatives go to red states and liberals go to blue as the country grows more polarized
  • I was seriously considering a move from Nashville to Minneapolis last year, but after a lot of soul searching about it, I realized that the length of winter there would mean giving up most of my favorite hobbies, especially motorcycles, for a substantial portion of the year, and I'm not willing to do that.

    Reddit's API protest just got even more NSFW
  • So far wefwef has been my favorite. It's a web app and has to be downloaded through Safari or Chrome, but it was made by the developer of Apollo and is very similar the overall experience of using that. Liftoff is a close second.

    What game encouraged you to make your new PC, or upgrade?
  • iRacing has driven (heh) the vast majority of my PC upgrades over the past few years. Changing from monitors to an Oculus had me upgrading GPUs back in 2017, I got a 3080 two years ago which let me upgrade to a Reverb G2, then realized I was getting CPU-bound fps drops so I ended up with a 5800X, all in the interest of higher settings and more cars on track at once. Unless someone comes out with a worthy upgrade to the Reverb, I think I'm set for a bit.
