  1. Only 1 location remaining in Austin off of Brodie in S. Austin.
  2. Getting ahead of the curve before some dude from Prosper tries to start shitting on Austin.
  3. Applewhite would've said X has 4 rockets up his ass.
  4. I like the Party Island, Brotilla, or whatever people call it. It's uniquely Austin and is a funny, spontaneous thing which was born out of Covid. I'm usually on my paddle board most weekends during the summer and about half the time on a weekend day, there's a band or some sort of music event happening on a barge/float. What I don't like is all the shit that people leave on the lake when the sun starts setting: paddles, oars, popped floats, plastic bottles and trash everywhere.
  5. Obviously, you did not know where you were when the world stopped turning. Not his fault.
  6. Paddle board Town Lake on a summer weekend. You get to cool off and see a band in the middle of the damn lake. Also one of the best views of Austin is to paddle board/kayak Town Lake at night. Paddle to see the bats and city lights from the lake.
  7. NO NO! Austin sucks. The people in the suburbs in Dallas and Houston need to remember that Austin sucks. There's nothing here. They need to tour Houston to see which refinery has the least polluting smoke coming out of the top and around Dallas suburbs to see which strip mall has the most parking.
  8. They don't bother to wear helments or any protective gear. They don't even have on shoes!
  9. Necrobump because good news, it's going to get worse! [No shit! emoji]. Our grandchildren are going to piss on their grand and great-grandparent's graves. https://www.kvue.com/article/tech/science/climate-science/texas-hotter-wildfires-climatology-report/269-483d3038-e623-406b-b0e3-b322c0766d35 Hotter temperatures, more wildfires The report states that the average annual surface temperature in Texas in 2036 is expected to be 3 degrees warmer than the 1950-1999 average and 1.8 degrees warmer than the 1991-2020 average. This would make a typical year around 2036 warmer than all but the warmest year experienced in Texas from 1895-2020. In that same vein, the number of 100-degree days is expected to quadruple by 2036 compared to the 1970s and 1980s, with more 100-degree days expected in cities. The report found that extreme monthly summertime temperature trends imply an increase of about 2 degrees over the past 50 years. The coolest days of the summer are also expected to continue getting warmer. What do these trends indicate for future wildfire seasons? Nothing good. The report said overall, the area of the state commonly impacted by wildfires may expand eastward. At the same time, higher temperatures will likely allow very dry conditions to develop earlier in the year, extending both the spring and summer wildfire seasons. Anticipated increasing temperatures also apply to the winter. Researchers found that extreme monthly wintertime temperatures are expected to continue to warm at an even faster rate. That means typical wintertime extremes by 2036 are expected to be milder than most of the winter extremes in the state's historic record.
  10. https://gizmodo.com/tesla-motorcycle-crash-death-autopilot-washington-1851428850 Tesla Driver Charged With Killing Motorcyclist After Turning on Autopilot and Browsing His Phone Your Tesla is not a "self driving car" no matter how hard you want to believe it. A 28-year-old motorcyclist died in Washington State on Friday afternoon because a dipshit Tesla driver rear-ended him at speed. A Snohomish man, 56, was commuting in his 2022 Tesla Model S when he activated the car’s camera-based advanced driver assist system and according to his statements to police, began looking through his phone. With nobody paying attention to the car’s actions, the Tesla software ignored Jeffrey Nissen on his motorcycle and continued on at speed. The car rear-ended the two-wheeler, Nissen was flung from the bike, and his life ended pinned underneath the electric car, where he was still lodged when police arrived to the scene. The Tesla driver, who told police he was “putting the trust in the machine to drive for him,” was inattentive to the road in front of him, and was only brought back to reality when he “heard a bang as the car lurched forward.” The driver was not impaired by drugs or alcohol, though he admitted to having an alcoholic beverage prior to the 3:54 p.m. crash.
  11. 3G. 5G wasn't invented back then.
  12. If there were only a T&F program in the state which could've helped him close the 3 meter gap....
  13. Pretty sure modern phones come with a panoramic setting for taking pictures.
  14. You mean our secondary coaches suck at talent evaluation and coaching for a decade plus? Every other facet of the team has improved with Sark. Why is it still the DB and not the coaching?
  15. Our secondary has looked like ass for Joseph's tenure here. It has not improved. From the spring game, it may have gotten worse. We have recruited well. At some point, it's not the player. Or if it is multiple players, it's clearly the fucking coaching, for their evaluation or their lack of coaching, or both.
  16. Apropos this thread. https://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory/cyberattacks-rise-includes-small-businesses-109532762 According to the Verizon 2023 Data Breach Investigations Report, the median cost per ransomware attack — which features a type of malicious software designed to block access to a computer system until a sum of money is paid — more than doubled over the past two years to $26,000. That's partly because there has been a dramatic increase in ransomware attacks, which represent 24% of all breaches. Small businesses should first have a plan in place to prevent cyberattacks. The human element is the cause of 74% of breaches, so owners should make sure all of their employees use safeguards such as two-factor identification to make it harder to be hacked. Requiring employees to regularly change their passwords can also help.
  17. Well good news is we don't have to worry about technique when the DBs still don't know assignments and blow coverages. DBs don't have to turn around for the ball if they aren't within 10 yards of the receiver.
  18. It aint gonna be like it used to be....except for the record and lack of championships of any kind which will remain exactly the same.
