Is this how one joins the merfolk?

Aren't almost all (if not all) the storage manufacturers guilty of futzing up their production at some point? In the different threads concerning this issue with SanDisk, I'm pretty sure I've read of people recounting issues with many of the different manufacturers.

Doesn't help that there seem to be fewer real options thanks to consolidation over the years.

Sorry, I wasn't sure whether I wanted to focus on shaved/trimmed hair vs. cut hair when asking, but shaved's more of what I was wondering about, as I think that's often washed/flushed away?

I also thought it was a fun mundane question about something one otherwise may not think much about.

Any chance you also receive the lost socks?

Is Satya Nadella with you?

Tbh I have no idea who that is nor was I basing this off anything other than a silly passing thought

What is FPV short for? I'd guess given the RC mention (remote control?) that it may be first-person view?

Ah, I gotcha. Maybe with some luck someone with your interests that doesn't mind general communities and posting may help grow a simracing community here.

Tbh I'm a little surprised there aren't more sim fan communities around here, since it seems to fit some of the demographics of tech-inclined people.

Unfortunately some niches don’t fit with other, larger communities. Simracing, for example, makes no sense in gaming communities, but also makes no sense in car communities.

Do you also enjoy other non-sim racing games? You might post about some of those and then if the opportunity rises also bring up the other simracing games you're into and direct some folks to a simracing community that way.

It's roundabout, but I think that's often how one makes paths to more niche subjects.

The sorting algorithm changes are what I’ve been waiting for forever. A bit disappointed it’s taking so long. I basically never see many communities I’m subbed to.

On that last point, are those communities fairly active? I've noticed similar but when I check the communities I'm subscribed to, it turns out it's largely because they're less active than those communities I'm seeing more posts from.

Even more apparent when I switch to viewing only my subscribed communities feed.

Is it a passing of the gas if no one's around to smell it?

Thanks for the detailed reply! My suspicions were that it may have been related to the complexity of manufacturing (including the materials development that's enabled it within the past several decades), but the costs alongside that had slipped my mind given the scientific reasons that would have been more of a hard block in the past.

Also across the various replies here, TIL a bunch more about what's up with PEX, which I'd not gotten around to researching. Sounds like some wicked stuff all things considering!
