  1. That confuses me, too. Typically, Apple will not allow an install of an invalid OS version.
  2. Wow. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/43272059/indiana-qb-kurtis-rourke-played-torn-acl-set-surgery Indiana quarterback Kurtis Rourke played the entire 2024 season with a torn ACL, his agent, Casey Muir of Octagon, told ESPN on Friday. Rourke will undergo surgery next week to repair the tear in his right knee ahead of the NFL draft. Rourke, who suffered the injury in August, first tore the same ACL during the 2022 season while at Ohio. This season, the Canadian native led Indiana to a school-record 11 wins and an appearance in the College Football Playoff. He passed for 3,042 yards with 29 touchdowns and five interceptions, had the fifth-best QBR in the country at 85.2, and finished ninth in voting for the Heisman Trophy.
  3. Sorry if you already looked this up, but... https://support.apple.com/en-us/101666#:~:text=A prohibitory symbol%2C which looks,until your Mac turns off. A prohibitory symbol, which looks like a circle with a line or slash through it, means that your startup disk contains a Mac operating system, but it's not a version or build of macOS that your Mac can use. Press and hold the power button on your Mac for up to 10 seconds, until your Mac turns off. (Every Mac has a power button. On laptop computers that have Touch ID, press and hold Touch ID.) Follow the steps in this article: How to repair a Mac disk with Disk Utility. It describes how to start up from macOS Recovery instead of the installed operating system, then use Disk Utility to repair your startup disk. If Disk Utility finds no errors or repairs all errors, continue to the next step. While still in macOS Recovery, install a version of macOS that your Mac can use: How to reinstall macOS.
  4. Texas was not joining the SEC for intellectual or academic reasons - that would have been either B1G or PAC (before it self-immolated). It should be no surprise that the Big12 and SEC folks are morons. The USC one, though, is strange - probably related to 2005.
  5. Purdue scored 7. Shit, Hudson card threw a TD against UND. That said, UND was up 49-0, so the circumstances were a bit different
  6. Kirk Bohls, alleged Texas graduate, eat a bag of dicks.
  7. I believe Skat played most of the latter part of that game concussed. If so, ASU should be ashamed - and then admit another 15k students into their "digital immersion" programs.
  8. Yes. Montgomery is out for the year. However, saying Zeke has some gas left in the tank is misleading, as the tank is no longer connected to the machine. That said, Detroit OL is good and the OC is competent, so Zeke could be "ok" on occasion.
  9. It was a shot to all of the whiners out there, and Mack is one of them. Mack is the carburetor salesman in the days of fuel injection; a buggy whip salesman in the early days of of the automobile. Adapt or die.
  10. β€œMarkets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.” ― John Maynard Keynes Reference w/ additional background. John Maynard Keynes' famous quote, "Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent," emphasizes the unpredictable nature of financial markets and the risks of betting against them, even when you believe they are mispriced or irrational. Keynes suggests that: Irrational Market Behavior: Financial markets don't always behave logically or in line with fundamental economic indicators. Prices may fluctuate wildly due to speculation, investor sentiment, or external shocks that don't align with actual economic conditions. Risk of Timing the Market: Even if you're correct in assessing the market is irrational (e.g., a stock price is overvalued), it's challenging to predict when that irrational behavior will correct itself. The market can continue to behave irrationally longer than an investor can sustain losses from being on the "right" side of the trade too early. Solvency Risk: If an investor places a bet expecting the market to revert to rationality, they can lose a lot of money if the market continues its irrational behavior. A fundamentally sound investor can go bankrupt (lose solvency) before the market corrects itself. In short, Keynes warns that even when you believe the market is misbehaving, it may continue to do so for longer than your financial position can tolerate. This highlights the importance of timing and the perils of assuming that markets will quickly align with rational expectations.
  11. Louis Riddick has said "textbook" so many times tonight, I decided to find the textbook.
  12. Yes. They just showed the replay. Fucking cheap shot by #33. Might earn a fine in the NFL.
