It’s so funny seeing how toto (and most people) tries to brand this kid like he’s a lotus flower blooming upon sea of fire, compared to max who everyone at his early season treats like a living feral bloodthirsty coil spring
🚨| Toto Wolff Praises Kimi Antonelli for Defying F1's 'Ruthless' Norms:
— Mercedes F1 boss Toto Wolff commended Kimi Antonelli for proving that success in Formula 1 doesn't require being ruthless. Antonelli's impressive start to the 2026 season, with six grand prix victories and three additional podiums, has positioned him as the championship favorite. Speaking to media, Wolff remarked:
“Everybody loves a fast driver, and when the fast driver is also a nice human being and a person who is supportive of the team that never has a bad thing to say, then obviously it's like a jackpot.”
— Wolff contrasted Antonelli's demeanor with the traditional view that F1 success demands a cutthroat attitude. He elaborated:
“In the past, there was the opinion in F1 that in order to be winning, you need to be an asshole, you need to be ruthless and opportunistic.”
“I don't think that Kimi is that. It's just down to driving faster than the others, and being a nice person also.”
— Reflecting on Antonelli's rapid rise, Wolff acknowledged the role of his upbringing in shaping his character. He noted:
“We don't know what will happen in three years. For me, it doesn't seem so because he has a really solid upbringing.”
— Wolff praised Antonelli's parents for prioritizing education alongside his racing career, highlighting their influence:
“Which driver has done the A-levels or the Baccalauréat? Name me one that has finished school. No one.”
“His parents said, 'On Monday morning after the kart race, you're going to school'.”
— Wolff emphasized Mercedes' commitment to guiding Antonelli as he navigates his burgeoning F1 career, ensuring he remains grounded despite his growing success.

Like can you imagine if they make one of the AoD an A rank and now to have the full ensemble, you need to if you’re lucky got one (a ranks don’t have pity) and even worse somehow be lucky enough to get them to M6?
It’s a nightmare dawg
I know it’s a joke tweet, but i feel like addicted to cigs and alcohol is better than addicted to gooning (obviously both are bad). But like, those two at least works as social lubricant, and got you to go out and socializing. While gooning is a very isolating solitary activity
Okay this is genuinely insane.
SpaceX just unveiled a satellite whose only job is to run AI. Not internet. Not GPS. Just compute, floating in orbit.
It's called AI1, and the reason behind it breaks your brain.
AI data centers on Earth are hitting a wall, not a chip wall, a physics wall.
They need staggering amounts of power and water just to stay cool, and we're running out of grid and land to build them.
So Musk's answer is: stop building them on Earth.
In orbit, the sun never sets. Free power, 24/7. No water for cooling, you just radiate heat into the vacuum of space. The two things choking AI on the ground barely exist up there.
And here's the wild part: Musk says it's easier to build than a Starlink satellite. Strip out the complex antennas and it's "a lot of solar cells, a radiator, and some laser links."
One AI1 carries the compute of an Nvidia GB300 rack, the same hardware data centers fight over down here.
AI1 is just the first one. The plan is a constellation of up to a million of them.
And the timing isn't an accident, SpaceX goes public this week at a ~$1.75 trillion target. This isn't a rocket company anymore. It's positioning itself as the power grid for AI, in space.
The race for AI compute just left the planet. Literally.
