That was a great episode, loved the cow headbutting the car :rofl:

yeah, brilliant episode.  i really enjoyed it.

 

man, how they can possibly even speak about cancelling the show, i don't know.    i bet it is all talk, and no matter about the joke offending anyone, it is so popular right now, and they are on top of their game, they simply must go on.

I really enjoyed the 2nd episode, it's been a good solid start to this series as compared to years before. I especially like the Arsenal player picture frame, and how fast James May was doing the lap :rofl: ! I'm looking forward to the 3rd episode already  :D  !

Eh, wasn't a great episode imo. It felt like a very short episode for some reason. That M6 Gran Coupe though, it's one of my current favorite cars :drool: The Bentley is so hideous - blech, and imo it hasn't gotten any better.

well, i seriously enjoyed the episode, and loved the bentley.  (a bit like top gear, i thought i was crap at first, but now i think it is brilliant)

 

  not terribly impressed with M6 though... :p

"For once, Top Gear has been ambitious, but not rubbish." - Well, that's no strictly true. Anyone remember The Dominator? :D

That WAS rubbish, terrible at clearing snow, grit spreader could kill a car driver at 100 paces, and the flame thrower was about as useful at melting snow as an asthmatic ferret :p

On a plus note regarding the Aus episode, Skyline FTW!

I loved the M6 in the drag though :D

Yes, good ol' German power wins that race, even though the Bentley has AWD to help with that start. The Bentley isn't particularly good at anything...at all. 

  • Ugly? Check
  • Slower than (cheaper) rivals? Check
  • Expensive? Check

Me and the girlfriend were in tears with Hammond's rocket stretcher :rofl:

 

Oh and that censored genitalia was hilariously epic; complaints incoming for next week's episode :laugh:(Y)

I thought this week's episode would be cringe worthy but surprisingly, it was very entertaining, especially the start with the Stig! And Daniel was a surprisingly good SIARPC.

 

JC in the 944 with the, how can I say it, "gentleman sausage", was one of the funniest things I've seen on television for some time!

 

I laughed till I cried, and I am actually home sick at the moment :rofl: ! This series has really been a turnaround after previous series in the past. This just might rival Series 10, which I rate very high.

A really enjoyable episode tonight (even with the seriousness :p), do love the sharp look of the i8 (Y)

Likewise, if money wasn't an equation,<spellcheck,> I'd have one in a heartbeat, the actual MPG figures were a little worrying though, a diesel VW Passat, hell most diesel powered cars can triple those figures with ease.

Good episode. I like BMW's, but I'm not a huge fan of the i8. I think it's over hyped. There are rumblings that there is a more powerful i8 in the works. This is what I'm excited about - if only they could combine the N26 engine (240 HP, 255 lb-ft Torque, at least that's what they're rated for in existing BMW lineup), with a more powerful electric motor & larger batteries & bigger fuel tank...that to me is what the i8 should've been for the price they want to charge.

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
