One is smaller to account for perspective. I love everything about this!

Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.world•Why is F1 avoiding a V10 revolution, and should it?1·8 days agoYes, I know. But F1 has never been purely about building the fastest car possible. It’s always been a balance of speed, rules, strategy, and spectacle.
Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.world•Why is F1 avoiding a V10 revolution, and should it?1·8 days agoFair enough. I think in the end it all comes down to preference. Some prefer nostalgia and would be happy with the return of an iconic engine. Others are more excited with F1 being about innovation and real world application.
To me, the beauty of F1 is that it’s not like other sports in some aspects. It’s constantly changing and teams must find ways to stay competitive. That’s why I prefer innovation over nostalgia.
Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.world•Why is F1 avoiding a V10 revolution, and should it?12·8 days agoI guess I wasn’t precise enough. I know the electric motor has been around. There are huge gains to find in energy storage and the real world applications are enormous. I’m not saying that they should switch to all electric tomorrow but maybe in the next ten years. Maybe swapping batteries during the race could be an option? I know it’s not trivial but we’re talking about F1. I’m sure they can figure it out. Comparing F1 and FE is not very interesting imho, team budgets are way smaller, around 10%.
Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.world•Why is F1 avoiding a V10 revolution, and should it?32·8 days agoICE development is actually very much dependent on the number of cylinders. Adding a pair creates new unbalances that have to be accounted for. That’s why there are so many different engine configurations.
I’m not saying there’s no room for improvement in ICE development but it’s the “law of diminishing returns”. It’s a tech that has been around for over a century. As with all tech, the earlier improvements have a bigger impact than later ones, in general.
Electric motors are the future and I’d prefer if Formula 1 headed in a direction where they can innovate in this area rather than sticking to an engine that is on its way out.
Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.world•Why is F1 avoiding a V10 revolution, and should it?252·9 days agoHaven’t read the article because I really don’t care about this idea but how can you call it a revolution? V10 ICE are not new and there’s very little to optimize at this point. It’s a relic of the past and there’s no application for this tech outside of motor racing.
I mean at some point the number doesn’t matter anymore as most trade will just stop.

Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.world•2025 Japanese Grand Prix - [RACE] discussion thread 🏎️2·20 days agoHaha, that’s very accurate.
Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.world•2025 Japanese Grand Prix - [POST RACE] discussion thread 🏁11·20 days agoUff, watching this race really didn’t feel like time well spent.
It was really underwhelming how uninspired the McLaren strategy was as Palmer on F1TV rightfully pointed out. They really didn’t make it difficult at all for Red Bull to cover off both drivers. And Piastri not getting the chance to attack Max was sad to see. He was faster than Norris at that stage. You can always swap them back if it doesn’t work out.

Bademantel@lemmy.worldto DIE LINKE@feddit.org•Welche gesellschaftlichen Gruppen, die für die Linke Sympathien haben, sind noch nicht mobilisiert, und wie lässt sich das ändern?11·23 days agoDas größte Potential sehe ich eindeutig bei den Menschen, die am stärksten unter der wachsenden Kluft zwischen Arm und Reich leiden, die Einkommensschwächsten. Ich glaube, dass grundlegende progressive Veränderungen in Deutschland nur passieren können, wenn es geschafft wird, diese Menschen von linken Themen zu überzeugen, ihnen zu zeigen, dass sie die größten Gewinner*innen einer solchen Reform wären. Das ist meiner Meinung nach die größte Herausforderung linker Politik weltweit.
Bademantel@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Silksong announced for 2025 on the Nintendo DirectEnglish5·23 days agoInteresting, I had a very similar experience. I loved exploring the world, gaining new powers to unlock even more areas and growing stronger along the way. The world felt alive and authentic. Traversal was fun and combat was fair. I also liked how the characters you randomly meet have their own journeys, making the world feel dynamic.
But as the ending approached, it lost some momentum. With such a vast world and so much to discover, getting from A to B to C took time. I never actually finished the game but somehow that felt fine. It was more about the journey than the destination, which is rare for me.
If the initial reviews are good, the sequel might be the first game I buy at full price in a long time.

Da wir sowieso schon off topic sind: Wie bist du auf die Verlinkung aufmerksam geworden? Tagging zwischen Instanzen funktioniert meines Wissens nicht oder wenn nur ohne Benachrichtigung.

Der Kommentar von @[email protected], wonach laut Artikel auch Medienunternehmen (z.B. NZZ) Daten nach Russland verkaufen, überzeugte mich schlussendlich, diese Dienste weiter zu benutzen, wenn auch mit einem schlechten Gefühl. Aber hey, dieses Gefühl ist doch purer Zeitgeist ;)

This is the way. Waffles and pancakes are in a different league compared to French toast.
