Oscar makes mistakes though. But it seems that when he’s racing he doesn’t care and keeps going.
And while Lando has improved massively in this regard (remember his angry drive after his duel with Max in Austria where he destroyed his chances by driving angrily), he still seems to be more affected after he makes a mistake and needs to believe in the moment that he did nothing wrong for him to be able to keep going. (If it works for him it works I guess)
Waking up with the sun setting is what generally feels good, depending on how far north or South of the equator you are living.
I’ve mentioned it in another thread about this, bug in case you really want to understand: people sign up for much more than the desktop office applications. It’s a full on groupware package that comes with 1TB of cloud storage. Which automatically gives you access to your documents on any machine you use. If you get a new windows device you basically don’t need to put in any effort into setting things up because it’s already there. And for 80 euros you can do this for five people.
So in short: convenience for a reasonable price. To the point where it’s hard to justify running it yourself. Especially because your family will start to ask you how they can get MS office again.
Office alternatives have long existed and have been good enough for a long time. I remember writing my evening class project reports in them 20 ish years ago. Funnily enough on how to integrate Linux servers into a Windows domain and authenticating with domain users on that machine. But if you want to compare M365 to something, compare it to NextCloud.
But none of what you mentioned has a mail server/client nor cloud storage. Do you run your own groupware environment for yourself?
I don’t disagree agree that that’s technically true. But in practice it’s simply not going to happen. My 70 year old mother just wants to use outlook to mail her friends and I’ve setup het phone to save the pictures she takes of her grandkids (my nieces and nephews) on OneDrive so she can share them easily with the rest of the family. Same thing for my brother and my SiL. For 80 euros a year I get a full groupware experience with no extra work. Is it perfect? Of course not. But even with a higher budget there’s no feature for feature alternative.
Hell, the chances of getting my work to switch to OSS cloud subscriptions is higher than getting my family to do it.
All true, but making 4 other people do this who will also continue to ask on how they can use Office because they need it for work/school is way more work.
I’ve used LibreOffice (or OpenOffice as it was known before), and a problem with this approach is that your family will still constantly ask you to install Office and crack it for them. And those who don’t know any better will ask your help to open the PowerPoint their friends keep sending them.
Not to mention that LibreOffice doesn’t have an easy to integrate backup solution, nor an easy way to share big photo folders, let alone a decent mail client.
LibreOffice is a good thing at what it wants to be. But it’s not comparable to what MS is offering in the form of a subscription though. You don’t just switch and only replace the word and excel alternative…
It’s been a while since I got that mail, and made sure I have the none AI version, but isn’t it mentioned in the mail itself? Or in a link from the mail?
How can you know you’re not interested without having a conversation? Try shifting your focus to having a pleasant conversation, even if that leads to nothing. Not that that is easy all the time but if you’re chatting on a dating app or something it should be doable since it’s not exactly real time. If it’s in real life just own up to it by saying you’re nervous.
Can’t really find a source anymore. But wasn’t part of the explanation for Newry leaving that he was good friends with Horner’s former assistant? Though I guess this could have been unsubstantiated rumours.
He did not have the right to drive erratically. It’s literally described in the ruling what the rule was he was punished under.
Some of the Max hate stays ridiculous. Piastri literally slams the brakes to drop more than 150kmph in bad visibility and your reaction is: “why would Max do this?”
The current FIA president looking to make the FIA as corrupt as FIFA.
Lando’s interaction with his mom was so pure and lovely. I hate that do close after this that asshole MBS gets screen time again.
Commentators have favourites, especially Sky. Even Palmer and DC are still unwilling to admit they’re wrong and that Piastri did anything wrong. Which is absurd. If the two cars behind you almost crash into you, you made a mistake.
It’s such an obvious unsafe way to drive that nobody could expect him to het away it. Especially because he’s not British like Russell.
Either Norris or Piastri, or both spinning off would also do it.
Hulk podium today?
Edit: Hulk podium today! In a fucking Sauber!
I wonder what will happen if a safety car happens now(lap37) and Piastri pits. Will Norris still go for a double stack?
I literally hope Max has a miracle win, but you can’t blame Piastri for that.
While his starts are more variable I’m not sure that’s a mental strength thing. I guess it could be but in Spa you could for example hear him complain about his lack if energy as the reason for why Oscar overtook him. He can’t acknowledge in the moment he made several mistakes. Which I don’t think is abnormal, but from the outside it looks as though if he can’t have that external cause for his problems, he spirals into performing worse than when he does have the external excuse.
