  1. Past hour
  2. I feel like he was penalized for hitting the goal post when that should have been worth extra points.
  3. I thought the story was the hooker in his hotel room took Price's shiny-new BamaJelly-credit-card and ordered everything in the world.
  4. Most people just use Apple Pay.
  5. Drives ending in kicks from 40+ yards aren't stalling out in the red zone. I can think of several end-of-half/end-of-game kicks (OU, A&M, ASU come to mind) where the offense did more than enough to get him in range. @MirrOlure beat me to it as I was typing
  6. He just needed more Sark pep talks right before the kick. That's what we were missing.
  7. We can get better in the redzone, and better at 45-55 yard kicks, since they are two different things.
  8. Its not just gone. Thats how distilled water is made.
  9. BTW, I've previously pimped the Torrey Pines Gliderport as a cool lunch spot. I went the other day, and it's undergone a major upgrade, including a new deck with a full bar. Restaurant now has a pizza oven too. And live music on the weekends.
  10. Walking just far enough behind a horse to enable the rear hoof to get as high as your chest is Darwin level stupid.
  11. and obama committed treason !!!! put beyoncé and oprah in jail !!!!! lololololol
  12. Liam Neeson and Pam Anderson are supposedly dating.
  13. I'd love to know what happened prior to last year with Bert. Injury? Lost it mentally? His first two seasons, he hit 78% and 69% from 40+, best long range kicker we'd had since Tucker by far. Then last year dropped to 43%. WTF...
  14. Crystal Cove is "Old California" to me. It's awesome.
  15. Uncouth snek.
  16. Wife’s car needed a new sticker. She was told inspections are no longer required. No inspection, but sticker was bought. Hays County, Texas.
  17. No monocle so I’m ruling out cobra.
  18. upping his trade value ! astros magic pitching dust can fix him !

This comes as many residents are being asked to reduce their usage due to dwindling supplies. The problem is not limited to one city. In San Antonio, Microsoft and U.S. Army Corps facilities used a combined 463 million gallons of water in 2023 and 2024, according to local water utility SAWS. That’s the equivalent of usage for tens of thousands of households. Stargate and the scale of AI The Stargate campus in Abilene is expected to become one of the largest AI data centers in the world. Microsoft has partnered with OpenAI to develop advanced infrastructure capable of supporting the next generation of large language models. What’s received far less attention is how much water it will take to keep that infrastructure running. “These centers are showing up in places that are very water-stressed, said Margaret Cook, a water policy analyst at the Houston Advanced Research Center. There’s no requirement for them to have conversations with communities about how much water they’ll use.” Cook pointed out that these projects often break ground with little notice, largely due to regulatory loopholes. Texas law prevents most local authorities from regulating or even tracking how much water a facility consumes. A surge with little oversight According to the Chronicle article, a white paper submitted to the Texas Water Development Board projected that data centers in the state will consume 49 billion gallons of water in 2025. That number is expected to rise to 399 billion gallons by 2030, nearly 7% of the state’s total projected water use. “People don’t think of data centers as industrial water users, but they are,” said Robert Mace, executive director of The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment at Texas State University. In the Hill Country region, where several new AI-focused centers are under construction, locals are sounding the alarm. Not only do these facilities demand significant water for evaporative cooling, but much of that water evaporates and cannot be recycled. While some facilities rely on recycled water, many still draw heavily from drinking water supplies. “Once that water evaporates, it’s just gone,” Mace told The Austin Chronicle.
  20. It's good thru Thursday, I just don't want to drive around on an expired sticker (even if I have the receipt). I'll try HEB tomorrow. Thanks.
