  1. Woke issues are largely irrelevant to the vast majority of Americans. It's also a small part of policy from Dems. The Republican media machine is especially good at making things a much much much bigger deal than they are in reality even if they are negative. The Democrats largely make arguments based on merit and get distracted by trying to address things that are largely irrelevant to governing etc.
  2. I mean it's not a super advertised feature, I just have a VPN server that if you ask for access I give. It's not meant to be some full time VPN it's just for getting around content blocks and shouldn't be used for prolonged amounts of time or big bandwidth intense activities.
  3. Also, there's a lot besides his play that has to do with that narrative - I also think that without Quinn coming back that Texas would have taken significantly longer to become dominant, and that's not because he was just some guy that put everyone on his back, it was because it made Texas relevant and he was a significant draw for A LOT of additional talent, especially on the offensive side of the ball. He also started off with a very high floor, even when quinn was playing poorly it was still good enough to win the majority of the games. He definitely had some help with schedule etc early on with a really weak big xii and an Oklahoma that was floundering etc but lets not sit here and fucking pretend that we are where we are without Quinn transferring in from Ohio State. The gravitational pull he had, and kept even after his first season was incredible. Now did that fade going into 2024? Sure, he got passed up by Arch and everyone really wanted Arch to have been playing and Quinn to have left anyway, but if he just plays 2022 and 2023 seasons I still maintain that everyone here think's he's a fucking legend. In 2024 the team made back to back semifinals, the only team to have done it and that wouldn't have happened without Quinn's involvement in the program. I don't think that means that HE GOT Texas to the Semis, it just wouldn't have happened without all the steps that happened because he was around. There's a lot more than the first order effect of him playing that went into the evaluation that he brought Texas all the way back.
  4. Good-faith has no enforcement mechanism and is abused by those with weak character or bad intent. The main issue plaguing us right now is avarice. I forget who, but someone put an excerpt from one of the founding fathers calling out the dangers of it. I honestly didn't know what it meant and looked it up and it clicked. Definition of avarice: "The desire for wealth and possessions, sometimes to the point of hoarding or being miserly. It often involves a strong desire to accumulate and keep what one has, rather than sharing or using it." Just my opinion this is why you see a breakdown in the fabric of society. Everyone is better off than they have ever been and somehow there is an insatiable need for more.
  5. Its actually hilarious that there's so much film on this guy and you guys have seen most if not all of it repeatedly and you still haven't come to a consensus because of emotional garbage or who knows what. Quinn Ewers was painfully adequate. That's the enigma here. He was obviously an elite talent, who has head scratching mediocre film for a substantial amount of his career. He also has a pretty crazy highlight reel that is easily top 5 every season he played. Dude makes insane throws and had incredible touch. He also had complete shitfest games that are inexcusable at his level or for an NFL caliber player. Think OK State + Georgia reg season Everyone has arguments that are correct on aspects or portions of his body of work, but Quinn as the complete body of work is just Painfully Adequate.
  6. This is news to you?
  7. Lulz. Burnt ends would have been approved like a MF.
  8. Probably because there was 12 rounds.
  9. Full Video - These people are all completely fucked in the head.
  10. Texas is the away team wtf?
  11. This is what is frustrating for me as both a moderator and the owner. This place doesn't do shit except let a discussion happen. I would be fine if people used this place to organize legal activities to protest or otherwise resist, but just typing insane shit and wishing death etc is not only lame, but problematic
  12. Holy shit Arch is insane. Where is his ceiling
  13. The shittiest part of the noon kickoff is tailgating is fucked. No one wants to go at 9-10AM to tailgate for an hour then walk into the stadium early. We had a pretty good turnout for Michigan, but it would have been far better if it was a later game. I still haven't decided what we are doing in Columbus yet...
  14. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/dnc-panel-recommends-redo-vote-david-hogg-malcolm-kenyatta-rcna206337 This is some Bernie Sanders ass shit. I swear these fuckers cannot get out of their own way, because they care more about their roles than they do actually governing or winning elections. The Republican Party was having a civil war and a complete bloodbath and the dems are the ones who shot themselves in the head. It's insane.

  16. I do like he went to go finish the rest of the transaction too. Lol
  17. Lmao. Derka is making me laugh so hard in this thread, because he's not wrong, but it also matters absolutely none.
  18. Texas exes thing at home games and then I think there's some local chapters here and there where you can get involved and stuff like that.
  19. When people say stuff like this it's hilarious. All of the sudden the entire US is just gonna build a massive infrastructure to support power generation and charging across the entire country for the transition? everyone driving an electric vehicle would make the power problems that AI datacenters are having look like fucking child's play. ICE cars are not going anywhere anytime soon, just like fully autonomous vehicles aren't going to be here in the next 5 maybe 10 years.
  20. this was more my point than saying anything he did was good. This is a retreat away from certain doom, there's no way he would have politically survived 145% tariffs it was a nuke with almost as much fallout and follow on effects as a real one that they got to defuse before it went off.
