So we lose Alpine/Renault and win Audi as a new engine constructor while Honda pretty much becomes RBPT. Any further changes in the engine department that I missed?

What in this article had you jump to the conclusion that he wanted to chop his penis off? Dysphoria is a thing, no questions about that, but the vast majority of men don't want their penis removed and from the article it doesn't seem this man is an exception.

First of all, self mutilation is a known phenomenon of psychotic episodes. While this is the first documented case of penile amputation that's also the reason the case study was conducted and we're reading about it at all.

Next, he has years of depression in his past. For a depression do be diagnosed he has to be under some form of psychological care. While no guarantee that greatly improves the change of dysphoria being diagnosed, especially if it were severe enough to resort to self amputation with an axe.

Ultimately, once he came to his senses he did everything in his power to save his penis. If it was his great plan to amputate his penis while making it look like a drug-fueled accident or even if just wanted it removed but couldn't do so while sober, why would he put it on ice? Shouldn't he be glad or relieved it's gone? If he was dysphoric, I would expect him to make sure it doesn't get to the hospital with him.

Everything here implies that he didn't want to mutilate or amputate his penis and in that case implying it was intentional quite insulting, too.

Nonetheless, the first driver to score points for two separate teams during a season.

What is this statistic? He isn't even the only driver on the current grid to do so. Verstappen, Gasly and Albon all scored for both Red Bull and Toro Rosso in a season

To escape a body of mass you need to have enogh velocity (kinetic energy) to overcome the gravitational pull of that body. You can imagine it like a ball sitting in a bowl. With little velocity it will just roll back and forth but if it's fast enough it can roll out of the bowl and escape it's influence.

That critical speed is called "escape velocity" and it depends on mass and distance from a body. The escape velocity of earth (from the surface) is about 11.2 km/s and the sun's escape velocity (from earth orbit) is about 42.1 km/s. Earth orbits around the sun at about 29.8 km/s. If you launch in the direction of Earth's orbit, you will orbit the sun already at about 41 km/s, so you "only" need 1.1 km/s more to escape the sun, too.

If you tried to reach the sun, you could launch in the opposite direction leaving you orbiting the sun at about 18.6 km/s. Since there is almost nothing in space you won't slow down from friction and the orbit won't decay. Instead you'd have to accelerate opposite the direction you're traveling. Now, calculating exactly how much you'd need to decelerate isn't trivial since you don't want a stable orbit but an elliptical orbit that just touches the sun at the closest point (perihel). I don't know how much deceleration that takes, but it's propable that it's easier than accelerating by 1.1 km/s to escape the sun.

That requires neither engineering-level math nor paper nor patience. All you need is the chain rule and some basic knowledge of sine and cosine:

The derivative of cos is -sin, but because of the 6x you get an extra factor 6. The sine function is periodic on 2pi, so sin(6*2pi + pi/2) = sin(pi/2) = 1. So the result is -36

The one time I can think of is Alesi/Berger who moved from Ferrari to Benetton for the 1996 season

Oh, you're absolutely correct. My bad. In my defense, I was confused by this slightly broken table in the German Wikipedia. I didn't realise there were normal race weekends after USA, Brazil and Qatar.

The constructors title is in danger, there's no doubt about it. For the drivers title however, Verstappen still holds a comfortable cushion. Even if Norris goes full domination and wins the 6 remaining feature races, Verstappen can defend his lead by only finishing 3rd each race. Norris' only chance are basically DNFs from Verstappen or another constructor stepping up and consistently finishing between him and Verstappen

Don't forget first party Linux support and Proton to add Linux/Mac support to many windows exclusive games.

The last times May 4 was on a Thursday were 2006, 2017 and 2023. The Core 2 wasn't released until July of 2006 so I'd guess the correct year is 2017, but even then the hardware was already pretty dated. For reference, in 2017 the first generation Ryzen prozessors and Intel Kaby Lake (7th generation Core i) were around.

The alt right/populists turned politics basically into a game of us vs them where you associate with "your" party like you would with a sports team. If you say something against "their" party, they take it personally just like saying something bad about their favourite sports team. If "their" party screws up they are way more lenient, like they would be if their favourite does a foul. They win and lose with "their" party and make their personal success dependent on it. That might not be rational but it's normal behaviour for human to associate with groups like that. It just shouldn't happen with politicians and political parties.

The difference is, that you could just continue using XP until Win7 was released or continue using Win7 until Win10 was released. Win10 will reach end of life next year and then the only supported Windows will be Windows 11. Vista or Win8 were never as forced as Win11 is now.
