What sucks about the cost cap is that all the teams started from where they were in 2020 in terms of facilities, infrastructure, tools, software, etc. James Vowles complained that he is having to spend capEx at Williams on things every other team already has, so he's fighting an uphill battle both trying to get spend to get Williams on the same page AND to improve the car.

He said in a recent interview that capEx needs to be distributed like wind tunnel time for it to be totally fair.

I found that amusing too. They are mad we aren't forced to hang out with them

I disagree. If an instance wants to consistently violate community rules, and is run by mods and admins who approve of said violations, they have no business being federated with a mainstream instance.

If you don't like this decision, you are welcome to join an instance that never defederates anyone and then you can see absolutely everything. No need for account switching, you can see all the communities from such an account.

After all, the main thing you select when you choose an instance is you admin and mod team, so find an instance that alligns with your purviews.

I just recommended it in another thread but I can recommend the Nokia XR21 here too. Made of mostly recycled materials and designed to last at least 4 years without maintenance. Nokia's whole gimmick right now is trying to make phones that aren't worn out so quickly.

Camera - Pentax Optio VS20

I enjoy exploring and experimenting with CCD digicams. Due to the excess heat where I live currently, I've mostly been staying inside and photographing my pets, hobbies, etc. I just got this camera in the mail recently and was testing it out with one of my Hot Wheels dioramas. I went with a really gritty edit on this image and I like how it turned out.

Nokia XR21. Waterproof, drop proof, 4 years of updates, programmable physical buttons.

I have its predecessor and it is a fabulous device.
