This is simply not true in my experience. Basically everyone I know has to deal with all kinds of shit when installing Linux. Broken graphics drivers, random freezes, the touchpad disabling after closing the laptop, wifi not working, etc. There’s always something. Now I don’t mind fixing that, because I enjoy Linux more despide all of these issues. Andost of my friends manage to solve it as well because they’re programmers like me. But the average person might not be able to solve it and will feel like they’re constantly interacting with a broken system.

Not impossible indeed. Though I’m not sure there will be fireworks. It’s not like Hamilton and Russell or Leclerc and Sainz are creating a lot of drama.

It’s impressive how McLaren managed to rise. The battle behind Max is heating up yet again. I felt like Lando’s talent was being wasted with the previous car, so it’s good to see that he’s up to his usual shenanigans again now. Also cool to see Piastri being right up there with Norris. Het had a lot of hype around him, and so far that seems to have been for the right reasons. I would be very surprised if McLaren would stay at this level consistently, but I’d be very satisfied to see them in the mix with Ferrari, Mercedes, and Aston, depending on the track.

Damn what an ending of Q1. Times just came tumbling down. Happy to see Williams through, the dream lives on

Not too surprised that Nyck is under pressure tbh. Alpha Tauri picking up Nyck was already a bit of a surprise for me, since they have quite some talent at the ready. His Monza race was amazing, but I think people extrapolated a bit too much from that one race.

As a Dutchman I do hope that Nyck manages to turn this around though. Having two Dutch drivers in F1 is very cool
