    But if the power is out the plug in chainsaw your wife saw in Better Homes and Gardens won't work. Wait, of course everyone has the largest Generac system by now.

    See it's a win win for everyone.  Centerpoint is playing 4D chess and y'all are playing checkers

    LOL.  There are so many fucking trees in places they shouldn’t be.  Every major wind event will result in massive power outages.  Nobody wants to be serious about trimming trees and vegetation.   CenterPoint is lax and homeowners don’t want to cut their precious trees.  

    Why trim the trees when the next hurricane is just gonna take it down for you?

    I beat my 17yo who was talking similar shit. Heard a diatribe of “this controller is laggy” “i don’t know the coverages” blah blah blah

    I heard "the AI is bailing you out" "that was pass interference"

    Oh hell naw! I'd quit if this happened to me,!

     

    He's pulling the players back.  If it wasn't staged I would be selling my PS5 back to game stop for a penny in store credit.  That would set the rage meter to a billion

    The "old" clipping plays where a player got hit from the back and below the knees. Very dangerous technique.  I know it was used to intentionally injure a player and get him out of the game.

    Ric Flair has a nice clip move.  That's what he's the dirtiest player in the game.

    I’ve played a couple of games. Been using Burke until I think I’ve got stuff figured out.

    Nickel over storm brave is still a great blitz. I think I ran it 8x in a row playing tech on all American and got a sack or hit the qb every time. Sent Burke wide and let the LB come through.

    Yep.  That's what I do on a safety blitz on Burke's side.  Push him out wide.  Speed rush to make the lineman commit so the safety has a free gap to the QB.

    My experience with this: 
    QA are a bunch of morons who can follow a script to test the bug fix or functionality of a given piece of software, but they don't necessarily have the ability to find what's now broken after a code release.  DEV gives two shits about the side effects, and the code review process is headed off by management, who's been out of the DEV game long enough that they don't really understand to the T what's in front of them.  They're rubber stamping dozens of these code fixes in a given 30 minute review, and with the current agile approach, this shit breaks downstream due to QA not knowing a bag of dicks from a fallen stack of logs.  Someone gets the build pipeline to successfully deploy a few times out of 100 tries, and calls it a success, and pushes DEV to Prod and runs out the door for a long weekend (and puts no comments on the commit, so it's another task to find the responsible party).  

    Yeah.  We get told if you can't finish it before Friday, push it to Monday.

    The CSU QB was 31-36 for 549 yards. Not sure how to defend the pass…I usually just play the edge rusher (Burke).

    I started blitzing instead of running a cover 3.  I play Burke as my edge too.  The guy on the otherside trey moore ended up winning the Heisman

  9. I think there is some Harvey hubris too.  We all said oh wow.  Look at awesome we are helping each other.  I remember saying it back then.  We got lucky we didn't lose power because we would be acting a bit different.  Beryl showed it us how much it sucks to lose power and have it be 105 degrees for the week.

  10. I think part of it is QA and the other part is devs are a bunch of whiney ass bitches.  Anytime there is new implementation to prevent stuff like this from happening.  They complain about the burden it puts on them and how their boss doesn't know shit and they should be the ones approving the code any ways.

    We always stay at Marriot properties. Previously when we've needed long-term lodging (waiting for our house to be finished, derecho..etc.), we've stayed at the Residence Inn over in the Galleria. It's a nice area, but kind of old, not updated hotel. Shitty old TV's. Spent the last 2 night at the Townplace Suites off Rice and Fournace. Sketchier area, but more updated, nicer place. 

    Checked out this morning and went ahead and boarded the dogs. Gonna crash my brother tonight and see what tomorrow brings. May just keep boarding dogs and staying with friends/family as it's cheaper than getting a room somewhere that takes pets. 

    Confirmed last night that we're in a nested outage (~22 houses affected) and have zero priority for restoration. Could be anywhere from today to Friday. 

    You should Storm the Centerpoint office

    Something I think might come out of this after Trump wins...  He guts the Secret Service and turns it into Presidential Bodyguard that swears an oath of allegiance to him and him only.   Total loyalty to Donald J. Trump without any of that pesky one to the Constitution.  And they'll have immunity because their job will be to enforce "Official Acts and Duties of the President of the United States."

    I think the 3 musketeers have already told this story.

    Absolutely not to excuse this horrible breach of security but he didn't get off 8 shots, some of those heard were SS shooting at him. I hear 3 shots then a brief pause, then another burst

    Yeah.  It makes sense.  Just saw the counter sniper video.  Trained shooter vs untrained shooter

    yeah, Latin American never had strong men as leaders before 1946. I mean, we all know Bolivar was a florist before he became president.

    I am not saying it is a good place, but it is NOT the reason Latin America has human rights issues. Notice the lack of Brazilians on the list? Colombians? Guatemalans? Salvadorans?

    Who trained the Kabiles?  We teach all the dirty stuff because we don't like doing it.  But we are teaching it.
