  1. Of all the egregious ass horrible calls, that one was the most fundamentally obscene. There were a ton of WTF, no justification calls, but that one was truly unreal.
  2. It would fit the 2024 theme perfectly though.
  3. Rich Heimann wrote a really good book called Doing AI. It's great for the layidiots like me to understand the weird world of AI, both in business and in academics.
  4. Is Greg a former Generac CEO? I mean, there really is weather of mass destruction in Texas so it wouldn't be an out right deception for him to be pushing that narrative. (Retro-CR slam, from a Elon hating gun nut. Who'da thunk it?)
  5. You're confusing pegging with clipping. http://youtu.be/byDiILrNbM4?si=BsttZFdSWLQfNUEK
  6. This and reduces he said she said non-sense or horrible interpretation. The team and AI agree that the client/contact said X, George. You're the only one who thinks they were talking about shrimp the entire time.
  7. Barry Sanders "Bulldozing" down the field. Earl Campbell "dancing around defenders" Deon Sanders "quietly working the backfield" Certain terms stick for some announcers no matter how woefully terrible they are for the player/play/action on the field. I made up the ones above, but I hear shit like that all the time.
  8. It was called in the Big 12, at least the illegal block in the back version, along with the rest of the fouls you noted. They were just called very selectively, some might just say, with specific bias.
  9. Started to watch that and realized it was 3 hrs long. I'll get the cliff notes when the Chilean Sea Bass queen returns. But, it what I did watch most I got, "Nothing to see here, move along." - APD
  10. Yeah the lack foster screening vs lack of fosters available is a real damn beating in this country. I'm real temped to CR the hell out of this post. Instead I'll try a positive tact... kinda It would be great to see the wealthier and healthier Christian communities come together to help address the issue of lack of fosters in the name of Jesus. (Excluding the ones that are chock fulla pedophiles) Wait.. dammit.
  11. More of a boating accident than inner tube accident, imo. I was imagining a decapitation at Wet n Wild from a broken water slide tube.
  12. There are good, practical reasons to not purchase EVs, there are better reasons not to purchase a Tesla. However, the idiots behavior should not be a reason not to buy an EV if that's the only thing preventing you from doing so. The safest bet, imo? Toyota, but that's a debate for the car nut threads. It's how I would go on an EV, but I personal see more value in the hybrids, for a lot of different reasons. Don't let dumb dumb's behavior push you away from a decision that's right for you.
  13. Your note prior to the article can't be stressed enough. I've lost a friend who decided on a solo trek into the Rockies. I lost contact with mutual friends but last I heard his body was never even found. Emergency locator beacons are not that expensive, not that heavy, and readily available. Anyone that ventures out on foot or vehicles to extremely remote locations needs to be mindful of this simple, affordable, life saving device. And WATER. It's super easy to be immobilized through a relatively mild injury. Sprained ankle. Water, water filtration and Emergency locator beacons. That a couple of protein bars will get you through 99% of what you might face.
  14. When a customer approaches the vending machine, they must agree to terms on the screen, select their desired type of bullets, insert an identification card and participate in a facial scan. Customers have to be 21 years of age or older to purchase bullets from American Rounds’ vending machines. After the facial recognition is confirmed, a customer can swipe or insert their credit or debit card and then wait for their ammunition to be dispensed.
  15. I just would like a bit of clarification. Does aggie actually hold a recruiting party at an apartment pool? Am I understanding that correctly or is it just a pool party at an apartment pool. Admitting my ignorance here that I could typically deduce the reality of the situation, but with aggie what would normally be insane is absolutely in play.
  16. You're truly over thinking this one man.
  17. Hah, no, it's not that I think they will be easy to break into. Likely the opposite, which again gun store is probably easier to get into. It's not that I think breaking into it will be easier, I just known the demographic of who will be attempting the task. Crow bar is the most likely tool, possibly surpassed by aluminum bat, followed by screwdriver. This subset demographic doesn't own any vehicles with working winches. However, wire that's way too fragile and Ram trucks will definitely be in the mix.
  18. Purchased to support Surly folk and get my "knowledge" on.
  19. In all, a great discussion. Subcribed!
  20. I'm nit picking here, but local gun store owners tend to be far more paranoid about "things" than a $10 per hour retail "sales associate". And breaking into the damn thing is going to be far more likely than it being hacked.
  21. Well, I can tell you for a fact MOST gun store and range owners are 100% with you on this aspect. A goodly number of them, particularly ranges, make a substantial amount of their income off ammo sales. Hell, in my small town the local gun shop owner was complaining about the new Academy that got built and them selling ammo. Irony is amusing. While I'm being amused, for the record I buy from ammo from neither local gun stores nor the big box "sporting" sections. In fact, I've sold more ammo TO local gun stores during panic buying than I have purchased. So, I don't even have a dog in this specific hunt.
  22. Mentioned it several times already. The irony is this is actually, in practice, a HIGHER level of scrutiny. Of course, on this topic logic and facts play no part in the discussion.
  23. Depending on the line, I could pretty easily see myself taking Florida in their first 7 games. And I do NOT think Florida is a worth a shit.
