Wow… That’s completely insane. Terrible approach for a software company. Thank you for explaining.

Honest question, since I’ve been seeing these sorts of anecdotes all over the Internet: why the fuck didn’t your IT group catch this with a simple patch management process?

Nah, just finding new ways to fuck the LGBTQ+ community.

Nah, frivolous and infamous are wholly appropriate for a message board, I’m not writing a fucking encyclopedia article.

Every team does file complaints, but I feel like Horner and Toto are sort of infamous for frivolous accusations that make the other team tear their vehicles apart for inspection hoping they find something or don’t and just forget a bolt somewhere.

Point is, it should be a rule for everyone. If you make an accusation and it turns into nothing, we take a point off the constructors, or something to that effect. Penalize the principal without overly penalizing the driver’s for the principal’s soap opera antics.

Standard Horner BS. If someone is actually competing: complain about everything and try to get them penalized.

Eventually F1 is going to have to implement penalties for frivolous investigations, like flopping penalties in other sports.

And because it always bears repeating;

According to JPL’s Chief Engineer for Mission Operations and Science, Marc Rayman-

Let's go to the largest size there is: the known universe. The radius of the universe is about 46 billion light years. Now let me ask (and answer!) a different question: How many digits of pi would we need to calculate the circumference of a circle with a radius of 46 billion light years to an accuracy equal to the diameter of a hydrogen atom, the simplest atom? It turns out that 37 decimal places (38 digits, including the number 3 to the left of the decimal point) would be quite sufficient.

Are you implying he meant that negatively?

This should go without saying, but benchmarking to test the raw performance of an engineering sample is a fools errand. Generally engineering samples are carefully selected for stability and testing features, not for their performance or efficiency.

Switches both look to be linear. Would you be happy with linear, or would you want tactile / clicky / silent etc?

Also, no declaration of swappable switches, so you’re likely stuck with them. For beginners I really recommend swappable switches or at minimum a switch tester to be sure you have some idea what you want before you commit.

Keyboard is wireless, so no guarantee it will work on Linux, but most do flawlessly. Bluetooth interoperability nearly guaranteed.

Materials look nice but I know nothing of the brand. Usually not recommended to stray too far off the beaten path while new to mechanical keyboards. Lots of junk out there.

What about it is so attractive to you? The layout? Key caps? Some particular features? None of these look particularly unique.
