In Australia

Ryobi: for DIY, apprentices or otherwise cheapskates. No shame in it. Best bang for buck if you don’t wear them out and the best part is you’re not going to be worried that someone will nick off with them. A lot of their range isn’t brushless and these tools will let you down the moment you need to do something moderately demanding.

Milwaukee: has won the trades tool war. They have a huge range of tools and their customer service with regard to warranty replacement can’t be beat. Tradies are very comforted that know that they can abuse the crap out of their tool and not be out of pocket.

Makita: my house. I consider more of a gentlemans tool even though many swear they are the most rugged things out there. I think their batteries are better than the competition in terms of overall cycles so long as they are not abused. Their carpentry tools are so so buttery to use. Wish they had a bigger tool range.

Bosch: Not as good as the above two but priced the same or higher. Limited tool range. Batteries are really not amazing. Sad to see but the only persons using these are really those who insist on buying only a german/european branded product.

Dewalt: Yellow is not as good as red or teal and is priced accordingly. Weird second best niche. Batteries kind of trash imo.

Ozito/Ferrex/etc: Chinesium. Bit of a roll of the dice. Some stuff may last but generally expect these tools to fail at some point even with light usage. Generally not fun/comfortable to use either.

Theres already an AI Attenborough that narrates Warhammer 40k lore. It’s brilliant

Unfortunately mass transit that works for everyone is the enemy of vehicle manufacturers.

Hydrogen currently doesn’t produce, store or transport well. This means it is not as economical as gasoline.

Not really a fan of lithium batts either. We’re going to end up with some environmental problems down the line but its the most economically viable tech we have at present if we’re intending on living the way we currently live.

I am impressed that Ferrari did not Ferrari themselves. I look forward to more of this in future.

Why not both?

I get you point but I genuinely want to live in a world where people are not forced to turn to engineering.

Snuffed-nower

I don’t think more pressure on Perez will actually produce results. If they want constructor points Red Bull might want to consider taking the bananas risk of producing a car that both their drivers can drive at full tilt.

I just don’t see it happening at AT. The car is a backmarker and Yuki is not exactly a top tier benchmark. Put DR in that Williams and we might have a better chance to see something special from him.

Sincerely hope to be wrong though!

Yep I agree this would just be giving extra points to the dominant driver. Hardly exciting stuff.

If we’re going to experiment with ideas that detract from pure racing I’d like to see constructor points awarded to teams that can keep both their cars within a place of each other on the grid. Could make for some interesting team orders but I can also see how it could be incredibly dangerous.

Both Happy and Sad for DR. He gets a drive but I think the Haas would have been the better car for him to shine in. The AT could very well be the nail in the coffin of his F1 career.

MARKOS BACK! CAREERS END.

My first trip to Europe I experienced shock at the cultural aparthied I witnessed in big cities. It felt worse than what I’d seen in Anglo multicultural countries (US/UK/AU/NZ) which is not to say it doesn’t happen there but I could taste the racial tension in the air in EU

I was bitterly disappointed that this video game did not show up as the top result and indeed at all when searched it alongside this quote then stupid me realised it wasn’t from Starcraft😅
