  1. I've been told it's a bit too "family friendly" and superficial though?
  2. He was backing off when Max confronted him and was calling for security (or a back up ) and then once Max was walking off, he seemed to be grinning and provoking him, then gave a smug interview and tried to push Max under the bus, claiming he was going to punch him. Pussy. Not that one would expect anything else from a Frenchman
  3. Lucky not to get a helmet smashed into his smug face.
  4. Yeah what a tit... Glad he got 10 seconds for that, but that still cost Max a race win which would have been more than deserved... Feel sorry for him. Red Bull were great today.
  5. Hamilton not even investigated for almost crashing into Sirotkin? FIA is a joke.
  6. Innsbruck! I find Austria great and extremely beautiful in general, but if I had to choose one place for a short holiday, then I'd probably go for Innsbruck and surrounding areas. EDIT: They do have a football club too.
  7. I wonder if they have a Mandarin instead of English speaking one? I reckon it would look and sound even more believable. Overall, it does look a bit creepy haha. The tone, pronunciation and lip sync seems a bit off sometimes still, but I was mostly surprised how they got te blinking right!
  8. Now that's what I call a magic mushroom! I must say that the whole 3D bioprinting, bio ink and tissue fabrication stuff is like magic to me. Can you imagine what a breakthrough it will be once we can actually print out complex tissue structures with blood vessels and nerves?... It's incredible. I read that the first mainstream application of it should be 3D-printed corneas. Amazing, especially considering how many people would be saved from blindness without needing a donor.

    How cute is that... I want one!
  10. Ho Chi Minh City is even closer to me so the joke's on you!
  11. A perfect place for F1! Haha, it's definitely a weird choice and the track layout looks shite, but I'm happy it's been confirmed for purely selfish reasons.
  12. Vietnam GP in Hanoi has apparently been given green light from 2020 And Zandvoort is also making a return!

    Yeah... mental health is no joke Yet another unemployed drugged up attention seeking new age "naturist" "yogini" with a few screws lose; just a normal day in Bali.
  14. Who knows the end? What has risen may sink, and what has sunk may rise. Loathsomeness waits and dreams in the deep, and decay spreads over the tottering cities of men.
  15. I think we are not going to get anything mind-blowing-and-life-changing anyway as it's primarily a biological, geological and oceanographic study (unless they find Cthulhu down there ), but I'm stoked to see new kinds of alien monster looking deep sea creatures that we haven't discovered yet! Nature is amazing; it's hard to imagine that anyone could survive let alone thrive in such harsh conditions of high pressure, pitch darkness, extreme cold, little oxygen...and yet nevertheless we have all those various life forms adapted to the conditions at the bottom of the ocean! As for filming, I'm sure they won't stream it 24/7, but the expedition will be documented by the Discovery and Science Channel on the series called Deep Planet which is slated to air in 2019.
  16. it says that no one has ever been BOTH to the summit of Mount Everest AND ALSO to the bottom of the ocean at Challenger Deep...
  17. Anyone heard anything about it? A very interesting read. https://www.businessinsider.com/submarine-to-visit-deepest-parts-of-the-ocean-in-five-deeps-expedition-2018-10 A short summary: The world’s first manned expedition to the deepest point in each of the five oceans, and the ultimate validation of a unique deep-sea, manned research submersible. The Five Deeps Expedition is the first to attempt to reach the deepest point in each of the Earth’s five oceans: the Puerto Rico Trench in the Atlantic, South Sandwich Trench in the Southern Ocean, Java Trench in the Indian Ocean, Challenger Deep in the Pacific and Molloy Deep in the Arctic. The expedition will traverse 40,000 nautical miles / 74,000 km in 11 months. By the end of the expedition the sub will have descended through at least 72,000 m / 236,220 ft of water. Up to 50 scientific lander deployments will be undertaken alongside the submersible dives. No human has ever been to the bottom of the Java, Puerto Rico* or South Sandwich trenches. No one has ever been to the bottom of Molloy Deep. No manned submersible has ever been to Challenger Deep more than once. No person has ever been to the summit of Mount Everest and also been to the bottom of the ocean at Challenger Deep, which could occur on this expedition. The 48 million $ submersible vehicle called Triton is made mainly of Titanium and is able to change shape according to pressure. The world’s first two-person, titanium-hulled submersible fully tested to 120% of full ocean depth (FOD) and commercially certified for thousands of dives. It is accompanied by a 68 meter dedicated research & exploration ship, a trio of advanced FOD-capable seafloor landers as well as an FOD-capable echo sounder and multi-beam sonar capable of mapping the sea floor – a technical Tour de Force. The Five Deeps Expedition’s scientific program is led by renowned chief scientist Dr. Alan Jamieson, University of Newcastle, and will bring forth findings from never-before-explored depths to the global academic, oceanographic and environmental communities. The expedition provides the unprecedented opportunity to sample life across a gradient of depths, temperatures, salinity, food supply, latitude and in places around the world that were formed, split, or united millions of years ago by the shifting of the Earth’s tectonic plates. GOALS Find deep-sea features and habitats using high-resolution multibeam sonar Learn what lives in those habitats using direct visitation by landers (Flere, Skaff and Closp) and submersible (Limiting Factor) Discover how organisms survive in Hadal zones using the Pressure Drop’s onboard wet lab Determine organisms’ role in each given ecosystem Connect the Five Deeps through genetic differentiation of species found on the dives Determine which “rules” the organisms follow including features, behaviors or characteristics of a species that are shared globally Official website of the expedition: https://fivedeeps.com ----- This looks so exciting!
  18. Such a borefest. The Swiss commentator spent the whole hour talking about tyres I'm off to bed.
