I like Kimi but this seems a little weird. I know he has hype behind him but this just smacks of Merc trying to inflate his public image to start rebuilding after the loss of Lewis marketing value.

I'll still watch it.

A banana with a tall glass of milk is both tasty and typically enough to set me right. And takes no time to prepare, which is a bonus for late night snacks so you're not waking yourself up too much. I like to keep a banana in the fridge so it's cold to match the cold milk, which makes it taste better together somehow.

Might be clichéd but I would have probably gone for one of his depictions of Salome. I always loved Salome Dancing Before Herod, though The Apparition is maybe his most famous work. The picture on artvee doesn't do the latter justice though.

I love Gustave Moreau, but I don't think this is his most interesting piece.

To me this reads like anti-abortion propaganda which is a fairly unpopular position these days (and especially around these parts). Probably explains some amount of the downvotes.

I mean his teammates have changed quite a bit over the years. Best type of comparison imo would be percentage of times when his teammates made it to Q2 and Lance didn't (excluding data points influenced by mechanical failures and yellow flag interruptions etc or course). That would actually show a measure of failing to perform in a capable car.

Doesn't really say a lot without teammate comparisons to be honest.

Story wise though, i'm a bit mixed on. I'm really liking the story, just not as a Max Payne story. The Brazil setting isn't really doing it for me and it feels a bit more GTA Coded than Noir, at least until i detach it from the first two games.

This is pretty much the general consensus of the game overall I think. Good game, just not a good Max Payne game.

Even though I don't think there should be a cap these days, 60 FPS is at least perfectly palatable. 30 FPS really is not, and it's particularly jarring if gameplay is not capped but cutscenes are.

Had no idea there was a 30 FPS cap in cutscenes. In this day and age, really?

Hey, I'm in this picture!

 
 

Once practice and qualifying were completed, every car had lapped the Jeddah Corniche Circuit faster than its predecessor had managed with a single exception: the AMR25s of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll

 

Someone else linked this absolutely haunting reading of Kipling's 1915 war poem some month or so back elsewhere on Lemmy and it's stayed with me since then. The poem is great in its own right but this reading is something else.

 

If this is a one-stop we're doomed. And I have a sinking feeling in my stomach that it will be.

 

Translation by Wyatt Mason.

Written around 1872, inspired by the Paris Commune.

  • Swipe gesture actions don't work in the inbox view. I often find myself instinctively swiping to Upvote and/or reply on comments in my inbox, but it doesn't work unless you click through to open the comment thread. Would be convenient to have them work right there in the inbox.

  • Automatically hide the default banner from the header of Subscribed, Local and All feeds. It's nice to have the Post View Header setting on for communities, but the home page feeds doesn't have banners so it's just clutter. Possibly also automatically hide the banner and/or icon for communities that doesn't have a custom one set?

  • Option to have left-to-right swipe act as "back" button on all screens, including menus. Would help using the phone one handed.

  • Option to have "Confirm exit or save draft" dialogue pop up when exiting a post/comment you've typed in but not sent. More convenient than manually saving drafts, doesn't automatically clutter your saved drafts like auto-saving does and still works as a safeguard against accidentally losing long unsent posts.

  • View "Remote Local" function - ie what the Local page looks like on an instance other than your home, but without changing accounts. Good for finding new active communities, especially on smaller instances.

  • Remote instance community browser. Basically just a list of all the communities on a given instance that you can click through. Another good way of finding new communities.

 

It hasn't been the most active lately but with the recent influx of new users I thought it might be a good time to promote it. I'll try to make an effort to post more but no promises.

It would be great to at least have an option for swiping left-to-right to work as the "back" button, even in menus.

Currently it only seems to work if you've got a post open. If you for example swipe left-to-right when viewing a community, the left side drawer menu with your subscriptions opens instead.

I personally find the back button a little hard to reach with my right thumb, and having the swipe to go back be consistent helps using the phone one handed.

  • Option to show user display names, including custom formatting and emojis. Example:

  • Option to show community display name instead of just the adress, example:

  • Option to highlight comments made the past 15 minutes (in lieu of highlighting unread comments, as I understand that's not technically possible)

  • Option for a clearer distinction on who is the OP of a thread. I often don't notice the small icon, and it's useful information to have for context. Some other apps have a colored background behind the username of the OP, which I find helps a lot.

  • Different font colour on the "(X new comments)" on a post to better draw attention to posts with new comments

  • Option to have a different font colour on pinned posts to help them stand out, especially useful for communities with lots of pinned posts, or to find stuff like announcements and weekly discussion threads in your home feed easier

  • Support for Atkinson Hyperlegible font as an accessibility option

 

The pin icon is a little too subtle for me and since a lot of pinned posts are threads I tend to revisit (like weekly discussion threads) it's nice to have them stand out more in the feed. Sync does this and I always appreciated that feature.
