    Mid-Ohio not looking as hot as Road America, but pretty close. Fewer places to hide at Mid-Ohio.

    Auto Racing 2025

    Interesting interview with Katherine Legge. Nice to see she had a similar reaction to her performance in Mexico as I did. I think she'd benefit from a series or two lower and learn the car format better. It isn't sportscar.

    Auto Racing 2025

    This is transitioning out of Turn 12 (Canada Corner). For some reason Canada Corner has a wooden statue with a bald eagle (foreground) and a US flag. Wooden statues are a thing at Road America. A local does the wood carvings and apparently very good at them. They are all about and sometimes easy...

    Auto Racing 2025

    Here is a sequence of Schwartzman after turn 14, ready to head up the hill to the start/finish. I need more experience with this sort of photography. As a proto-amateur, kind of go deer in the headlights. I needed to step down the zoom (in hindsight), but I did know and the zoom lens I have...

    Auto Racing 2025

    Back to back 100+ degree heat indices. Then an eight hour drive post race to get home. 1.5+ hour shorter drive being Sunday night and I gave 94 the finger and took 294. I did a quick weeding between NXT and Indycar's races. And working on the photos, but kind of tired. NE Ohio is bloody hot now...

    High of about 92 today, 101 or so Heat Index. It is going to be warmer tomorrow and probably less clouds. I'll be hiding in the woods tomprrow by the Carousel. Also Road America is an absolutely awesome place! Just need to add a lake for when the mercury rises above 90 degrees. Or a creek and...

    Auto Racing 2025

    Temps looking to be in the 90s (and muggy) on Saturday/Sunday. Heat indices possibly reaching 100+. This will be warmer than Watkins Glen last year. Need to snag some driver's cool suit... maybe Sting Ray Robb's. Not like he was going to be competitive anyway.

    MAX Changing Names Again...

    Well, I'll see about that. *Google "are ai overview accurate"* AI overview agrees. But wait... if they can introduce errors and misinterpretations... that could mean AI Overviews are always accurate and the above is wrong. :eek:

    Nintendo Switch 2: Fastest Selling Console EVER!?

    It was fast selling because of US trade policy. And there is still high demand for it... but because of US trade policy, kind of impossible to buy at the moment. Let's hear it for US trade policy!

    Prime Video ads to double

    Yeah, I pay that as well. But I wonder how much of the ad or ad-free payoff revenue is to pay for the NFL rights to one-ish game a week.

    Prime Video ads to double

    How much are these ads to finance the NFL on Prime, that one or so game a week? I'd gladly give up that NFL game for no ads.

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    Why in the world they haven't paired Sling with Boost is beyond my understanding. That seemed like a no-brainer.

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    I was referring to the Trump Mobile plan. I've been on Boost for a few years now. Very happy with Boost. Just wish Dish/Echostar would advertise it better.

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    I thought selling the spectrum was not allowed. The auctions weren't done to create middle men. This is surreal. There is likely no legal viability to the FCC interfering like this with Echostar. If Echostar are hitting their targets, they are meeting their obligations. And they met these...

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    The $350 phone for $500 will be made in America... at least it could, in theory... down the road... at some point. And at $47.45 a month for $25 a month service, people will swarm for this deal. as it will provide better service to under serviced people... as a MVNO service (ie on other...

    EchoStar Soars 43% As Trump Urges FCC To Settle Dispute

    So shares went up when White House meddles in FCC's meddling instigated by those in the White House? Not certain why it went up. The allegation was POTUS said Ergen should 'make a deal'... IE give up a portion of access to something he purchased.

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    They are selling a $400 phone (specs are real close to Samsung A36) that you can likely get a good deal on... for $500.

    Echostar prepares potential bankruptcy filing

    Well... I probably would guess it isn't a "new" phone, but just a new branding of an existing phone.

    Auto Racing 2025

    Indy in St. Louis. I'm not certain why I thought it was in Illinois. 500 miles on a 1.25 mile track. Penske secured the front row in qualifying. Veekay qualified 18th, but felt he had a good car for the race. Race was interesting. Penske apparently has angered the luck gods with their many many...

    If it wasn't for Indycar on Fox, I wouldn't be aware of just how awful Fox programming is.

    Auto Racing 2025

    Apparently the 50 car's team attempt to get the Goodyear blimp to crash on the course causing a Safety Car to finish in first without pitting were unsuccessful. Ferrari just incredible power. And Peugeot not able to finish without and splash and sah. That'll probably drop them a few spots...

    Rexy isn't racing at LeMans, however he is in France to cheer on and help coach his buddy Spike. But had some time to visit some of the sites. AO Motorsport really the target with Rexy, Roxy, and Spike.

    Ferrari's dominance ran into a pause between Midnight and 4 AM, but after waking up, right now they are top three again. Porsche Penske in site in fourth and Cadillac in fifth. Donut Car is leading LMP2.

    10+ hrs in, maybe 8 hrs since last yellow? Ferrari are killing as per the norm this year. One Penske Porsche up in the mix.
