#F1 there's a lot of mirth about Sainz hitting the manhole cover, but when you consider that his backside is sitting on what is essentially the floor of the car (in some cases the seat is cutout at this point), and there's a high density battery pack on the same plane, that could have been an extremely serious accident.
Not a headline or story I would ever expect. Qui custodiat and all that..

Had a look at Debian 12. Doesn't give a lot away to the 'just works' distros now. Very up to date for a Debian desktop effort. You could be happy with this over Ubuntu or Mint. Gnome 3 isn't altered much, which is good because if Gnome works for you stock is usually best. #Linux

Today in 1974, 49 years ago: in Birmingham (England) two pubs explode; 21 people die. Six young men are falsely accused (Hugh Callaghan, Patrick Hill, Gerard Hunter, Richard McIlkenny, William Power and John Walker), which the media dubbed the Birmingham Six. After an infamous case of judicial assembly, on August 15, 1975 they were sentenced to life imprisonment. Until 16 years later (on March 14, 1991) the British justice will recognize their innocence and release them.

Dungeons and Dragons is a role-playing game that lets you live out such fantasies as:
• Having money
• Making close friends as an adult
• Travelling the world without crippling debt
• Being able to change the world
• Getting better at something with practice
• Getting 8 hours of sleep each night

Hey, maybe the good #Google folks at web.dev can write an article about how the #Firefox slow-down trick on YouTube works so other sites can implement it too.

#F1 cars got *big* and heavy as the years have rolled by. They were 600KG in the 90s; around 800 now.

Today in 1739, 284 years ago: Start of the Battle of Porto Bello between British and Spanish forces during the War of Jenkins' Ear.
#F1 that was a very good GP. Would like to see it a touch warmer next time; half the field could not use the hard tyre.
I am occasionally visited by the thought that for #F1, Drive to Survive is simultaneously the best and worst thing to happen to the sport.

Today in 2019, 4 years ago: in Wuhan, China, the first known case of the coronavirus disease SARS-CoV-2 appears.
#F1 57F is not cold guys, come on. Maybe if you're used to 100F, but it's barely sweater weather elsewhere.
#F1 They should do a 4-6hr endurance event at this place. Give the punters some more racing to look at, and the sportscar people would love it.
