  1. Please let most/all of the September (and August) games be at night.
  2. My wife had a model Y (it was totaled when some jackass rear-ended her - kept her and the kids safe, so I'm happy with the way it performed in that accident), and I have a Rivian. Both have "auto-steer" capabilities (Rivian calls it Highway Assist) that are pretty comparable, having driven both. But the big difference is that Tesla let you use it anywhere pretty much - neighborhoods, city streets, etc., whereas Rivian's is locked an only available on controlled access highways with certain limitations (they have to have been mapped by Rivian). It seems like a no-brainer to limit it to situations that it's intended for, and very low hanging fruit. So of course Tesla is not going to do that, I'm sure it will just be "our cameras are blinded by the sun, so you can't use auto-steer", not "you're driving in a neighborhood, you can't use auto-steer."
  3. This is what Conference Realignment is really meant to stop.
  4. Looks like the mods were prescient to make a "prepare your anus" rep.
  5. Man, it was right there in your quote and you still fucked it up. Bill in Sinton would not approve of your lack of focusness.
  6. It’s a “cap” for most people, because they aren’t going to spend the money to rebut the presumption that the guidelines are in a child’s best interest. It’s usually not worth paying someone tens of thousands of dollars in attorney fees to fight it when you won’t get that much back in extra support.
  7. We aren't talking about different things. That is a reason to go about the guideline maximum for net resources. You'd still apply the percentage to whatever the net resources are above the cap. So in this case, instead of $9,200 a month, you could say his net resources are and then apply the percentage to that amount of net resources. As long as the amount of child support is below 50% of his net resources (whatever the court determines them to be), and as long as the court finds going past the guidelines is in the child's best interest, you can blow the "guideline max" child support out of the water. But what do I know, I just do this for a living. I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night.
  8. It's a guideline, not a cap, and you can go above the guideline if you meet the requirements. Here's the law in question: The last exception is big enough to drive a Cybertuck through.
  9. Cool. I’ll tell my clients that I’ve gotten court orders over the guideline max that they should thank their lucky stars the other attorney and judge didn’t know that.
  10. I mean, that's funny and all, but I could get Grimes considerably more than $2,760/mo in child support, even in Texas. Especially here in Travis County. Judges have discretion to, and will, go over the guidelines if you prove the case correctly. And there's a lot of high earners in Travis County who pay more than guideline support because of that.
  11. Missed it by ~7700 spots. Did the calculator as to how much I'd have to donate to get above that level. It was more than my downpayment on my first house.
  12. Pelican club is definitely a sneaky good recommendation.
  13. Got mine yesterday (saying sorry not sorry thanks for all the money), and a phone call this morning saying the same thing.
  14. Fuck it I’m in. I’ll just bill a few more hours.
  15. When he was interviewed about Worthy after the game, I thought he gave a lot more info (e.g., no break, he'll be fine for our next game) on purpose because he knew CFP committee was listening and he didn't want them to knock us for losing a key piece of our offense.
  16. She's out of your league. That's what it means.
  17. This one is so bad that it may boomerang all the way around to being awesome. Actually, it's not awesome. It's allsome.
