Welcome back to the land of yo-ho-ho, because these fuckers are overly greedy.

Reading this makes me happy.

This is why as a community, we should’ve never allowed things to centralise on LW in the first place.

That’s exactly why decentralisation is good.

Every nation subsidises their various manufacturing industries. Why do people keep pretending like the American auto industry wasn’t built and maintained on subsidies? German subsidises their auto industry too. China is simply making better and cheaper vehicles, so the racist west is crying.

Everyone wants a free market until the free market starts acting freely.

As Marques points out though, the car isn’t doing anything new or revolutionary, it’s just bringing a bunch of things that are already available together and doing them well.

Just feels hostile to me.

I can only go off of the information that makes it to us, but apparently yes. Even Formula E are designed with different aerodynamics to Formula 1.

Traditional handles reduce range. Though I expect to see some evolution of door handle design in the coming years.

The American government subsidises American car manufacturers too though, no?

I hear you, but if these cars undercut and outperform Teslas at the same time, the prices should drop across the board for everyone. Cleaner roads are a win for everyone.

I think at the time, they had to prove to the world that EVs weren’t a cheaper alternative but a luxurious upgrade. Now that they’ve established prestige, the prices should drop, well if governments do their jobs properly.

Isn’t that just the Facebook container but for AI?

So I started looking into this and while FE is catching up, the smaller design that’s made for tight turns and rapid acceleration means it can’t beat F1 is a straight race, but it will Beat F1 on a race that includes turns. In a city for example, F1 can’t compete.

Each to their own. For now you can re-enable the old menu via the secret settings.

Let’s be honest, F1 is antiquated now. It’s living off of nostalgia. It doesn’t even really innovate any more. Certainly not things that couldn’t be applied in FE. I get that fans want to hear engines roar, but I think they’ll quickly get used to hearing engines whirl. Big Oil can’t stave off the electric revolution for too much longer.

But now you’ve made me think of it, perhaps F2 will be hybrids and and F3 full ICE

Oof, yeah. No go on the expanded. That’s a shame.

It’s one of those things where if you don’t try, there’s no chance. I’ve had a few feature requests and bug fixes implemented.

I can’t wait until Formula E replaces Formula 1. We’re years away, but it’s exciting to dream about.
