  1. 3G. 5G wasn't invented back then.
  2. If there were only a T&F program in the state which could've helped him close the 3 meter gap....
  3. Pretty sure modern phones come with a panoramic setting for taking pictures.
  4. 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?
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. Cyber security is not just about the firewall and the IT infrastructure. You have to CONSTANTLY educate and train employees not to click on bullshit emails/attachments and not fall for bullshit help desk/password reset calls. Even then, it's sometimes hope and pray. We have a big budget for cyber security training. We have mandatory quarterly training to teach people about bullshit emails and NOT TO FUCKING CLICK ON THE LINKS AND ATTACHMENTS. The team routinely sends out test emails to test employees. The same motherfuckers repeatedly fail the test emails. Our CEO even failed a test email once.
  10. Got dammit, Sark. Sark has taken Texas too far to be torpedoed by a shitty coach who hasn't improved since setting foot on campus. Fire his ass. NO ONE would question that decision.
  11. Cyber security is an after thought for most companies, especially the small and midsized ones. They don't have the expertise or the money to spend to educate/train, prevent, and solve these ransomware attacks. Cyber security is all cost. When trying to maximize profits and margins, shit like cyber security is a bare minimum effort.
  12. I can semi understand hitting every company except humanitarian/hospital/public health places. There's being a dick and then there's being a absolute scumbag.
  13. I saw the eclipse and got measles! What a great day! https://abcnews.go.com/US/possible-measles-exposure-indiana-childrens-museum-total-eclipse-event/story?id=109490250 People who attended a total solar eclipse event at a children's museum in Indiana may have been exposed to measles, according to museum and health officials. An infected individual traveled to the event at the Children's Museum of Indianapolis on April 8 from out of state, the Marion County Public Health Department (MCPHD) said in a news release late Friday afternoon. There were 3,527 people in attendance on April 8, the children's museum said, adding that it sent out emails notifying households in attendance that day for whom it had contact information, as well as notified all staff and volunteers.
  14. "I will not tolerate any player loafing. But if you see a loaf, bring it to me because I'm hungry again."
  15. I'm pretty sure MMR vaccination has been required since I was in kindergarten in 1975. Do you have kids? Your kid has a vaccination card which someone in your family had to present to the schools.
  16. I'm going to wild ass guess Alfred Collins because he doesn't like all DT portals we are looking to bring in.
  17. She seems "too incompetent to stand trial" crazy. Maybe she's pissed Garza and the city of Austin hasn't given her a house and a box full of Get out of Jail cards.
  18. This dude had himself a night. https://sentinelcolorado.com/metro/aurora-man-guilty-of-pulling-gun-on-burger-king-worker-who-refused-drugs-as-payment/ An Aurora man faces more than 400 years in prison after embarking on a late-night crime spree that began when he pulled a gun in a Burger King drive-thru after an employee refused payment in the form of drugs — possibly methamphetamine. Eugene Robertson, 40, would go on to fire multiple shots and narrowly avoid being shot himself during the series of bizarre confrontations that he instigated on the night of Oct. 17, 2022, according to an arrest affidavit prepared by Aurora police. Robertson was found guilty April 12 of eight counts of attempted first-degree murder with extreme indifference, four counts of menacing using a firearm and two counts of reckless endangerment as well as single counts of illegally discharging a firearm, possession of methamphetamine and harassment. The employee of the Burger King near Alameda Avenue and Buckley Road told police he believed he was going to be shot and killed after turning down Robertson’s offer of a baggie of drugs. Instead, Robertson drove away and pulled up to the 7-Eleven at the northwest corner of the intersection. DA’s office spokesman Eric Ross wrote in an email that a baggie dropped by Robertson at the 7-Eleven and recovered by police, which contained about 5 grams of methamphetamine, resembled the baggie described by the drive-thru worker. A witness later told police that, when Robertson entered the 7-Eleven, there seemed to be “something off” about him, and that Robertson was “talking about God” and carrying a Bible with a purple cover. Robertson and the witness got into an argument, and Robertson again drew his handgun and pointed it at the head of a store employee. Robertson then shot a television screen that was displaying surveillance camera footage of the inside of the store. The witness ran out through a side door and retrieved his own handgun from his car. When Robertson walked outside, he started shooting at the witness, who returned fire. Following the brief gun battle, during which neither man was hit, Robertson fled the scene. About 15 minutes after responding to the 7-Eleven shooting and less than an hour after they were called out to the Burger King, Aurora police officers were dispatched to yet another 911 call involving Robertson, this time from a woman who reported that her friend, “Eugene,” had just shot at her apartment. The woman said Robertson knocked on her front door, and when she refused to open it, fired at the door twice. He also shot once through a sliding glass door into the woman’s apartment, where multiple people were present. Robertson lived in the same apartment complex, which is located less than a mile from Alameda and Buckley. Officers found the Audi that witnesses had said was involved in the two previous incidents parked nearby. While investigating the shooting at the complex, police spotted Robertson, who tried to escape on foot by running through a bush. When he emerged from the bush, an officer shot at him and missed. Robertson was then arrested. “During his arrest, Eugene said he was not physically hurt, but his ‘feelings were hurt,’” the affidavit said. Officers also learned that Robertson had an outstanding warrant in connection with a March 2021 case where Robertson was allegedly involved in a vehicle crash and shooting, fled the scene, removed or lost his pants and flagged down an Aurora police officer, who arrested him on suspicion of illegally possessing a firearm. Police wrote in the arrest affidavit associated with that case that Robertson said he had consumed marijuana and alcohol prior to encountering officers, which would have been a violation of a prior Arapahoe County court order. “Robertson also spontaneously uttered that he was wearing white Nike tennis shoes and blue jeans prior to our arrival,” the 2021 affidavit says. The same affidavit mentions that Robertson had previously served an 84-month sentence for felony distribution of crack cocaine, making it illegal for him to possess a firearm. Robertson’s 2021 case remains open, while his sentencing for the recent convictions is scheduled to take place Aug. 9. “It’s a miracle no one was seriously hurt or killed,” prosecutor Taylor McCreary said in the Thursday news release from the DA’s office. “This defendant endangered countless lives that night by recklessly firing a gun.”
  19. Found guilty. Who would've guessed meth had a role in this killing, especially in Oklahoma? https://people.com/oklahoma-man-killed-friend-believed-wanted-feed-bigfoot-8635532 A man who claimed he killed his friend because he believed the victim was summoning Bigfoot was convicted of murder. Larry Doil Sanders was found guilty by an Oklahoma judge April 17, according to reports from The Oklahoman, The Ada News and KXII. Jimmy Knighten was strangled to death in July 2022 while out fishing with Sanders, the outlets reported. After waiving a right to a jury trial, Sanders’ attorney reportedly claimed that his client had acted in self-defense. The Oklahoman reported that Sanders claimed during testimony that while out noodling with Knighten, he had seen three sasquatch-looking figures by the river. Witnesses for the prosecution testified that Sanders had said he believed Knighten was trying to kill him and send his body down the river as a sacrifice to Bigfoot, reported The Oklahoman. The paper reported that a forensic psychiatrist testified that Sanders was suffering from methamphetamine-induced psychosis and believed he was defending himself. Knighten died following a fight, during which Sanders put him in a chokehold, KXII reported. The outlets report that Sanders faces up to life in prison without parole. "Jimmy truly enjoyed anything and everything outdoors,” Knighten’s obituary reads. “He loved to fish, hunt game, ride four-wheelers, and most of all drink his beer around a big bonfire. Jimmy never met a stranger, and would give anyone the shirt off his back. Jimmy died sacrificing himself for the big man himself, Mr Bigfoot.”
  20. This is what happens when the majority of the US who were C average students vote fellow dipshits into office. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/04/new-hampshire-republicans-polio-mmr-measles-vaccine-antivax-bill/ New Hampshire could soon beat Florida—known for its anti-vaccine Surgeon General—when it comes to loosening vaccine requirements. A first-in-the-nation bill that’s already passed New Hampshire’s state House, sponsored only by Republican legislators, would end the requirement for parents enrolling kids in childcare to provide documentation of polio and measles vaccination. New Hampshire would be the only state in the US to have such a law, although many states allow religious exemptions to vaccine requirements. Currently, Republicans control New Hampshire’s state House, Senate and governor’s office—but that isn’t a guarantee that the bill will be signed into law, with GOP Gov.
