I regularly play Gran Turismo 7 on my playstation 5. Fanatec Direct Drive steering wheel, seat, pedals, the works. I even have a pit crew telling me when my tyres are warm or cold, and which laps I need to pit in by using EzioDash Pro. I put great effort in keeping my SR (Safety Rating) as high as possible, hoping that I get placed in lobbies where people behave. I very regularly get the “Clean Race” bonus, and my SR is maxed out. Yet still I get into lobbies with dimwits like NicoTabe or JabCrash. Last week I noticed that these dirty drivers actually get increased safety ratings. This video clearly shows the problem:

Warmtestore review
Toen we een huis kochten met een open haard, was ik super enthausiast. Een vuurtje stoken was al snel gedaan en het oogt en ruikt fantastisch. Het enige nadeel van een open haard is dat er niet veel warmte vanaf komt: het rendement van een open haard is zo’n 15%. Al snel keken we naar een haard (niet open dus), omdat dat makkelijker stookt, veiliger is, minder rook en stank produceert, en niet onbelangrijk: het rendement van een gesloten haard is zo’n 75% tot 85%.
Apple Watch 8 Uninstalled
After wearing a simple Pulsar analog watch for years, and then not wearing a watch at all, I convinced myself a month ago that an Apple Watch 8 would be an improvement. Part of that decision was based on my hipster IT colleagues being surprised I was not wearing a smartwatch. I also noticed my girlfriend practically can’t live without hers, and then I saw this endless stream of youtube videos with raving reviews of (lets be honest) pretty biased people.
Review: Lamy Pico pen
A few weeks ago I saw this amazing pen design by Lamy, the Pico. I’m a heavy computer user so I don’t do much handwriting, but I do like nice tools so I thought I’d get this. Particularly the small form factor when retracted and the sleek design attracted me.
There are some things about the Pico that nobody is telling you, so I thought I’d write a little review.
Remember The Milk review
This morning I thought I had way too much tasks, way too much paper on my desk, a messy inbox, and a cluttered schedule. Then I made a terrible mistake: try to solve this with more tools. You don’t always solve “more X” with “more Y”.
