  1. FYI, heard from someone who knows Terry and family that he loves Texas. The NIL money I suspect is still an issue, as per CTJ note, but at least it seems he prefers Texas.
  2. Alright we are headed down there tomorrow. Have no idea where to park because we had Longhorn Foundation parking for 30 years. Regardless, ETA around 4 pm for 2 solid hours of debauchery before game time.
  3. Not visible on mobile browser.
  4. Well we missed every surly tailgate last year for a variety of reasons but working on a potential plan to make it tomorrow. We let go of our season tickets so would watch the game at the tailgate. I assume we just bring chairs and there’s people watching during the game?
  5. That’s pretty fucking good. Murphy was a budding star from the moment he took the field for his first practice. The staff knew it. Sweat and Coburn had to develop, in the sense of committing to the sport. The staff was frustrated with their potential for awhile.
  6. It’s a shame UVerse got too expensive and AT&T decided to get out of the business. The service itself is the best. No channel change delay. Astros, Rangers, Stars, Spurs, Mavs. Favorite channels, flip back, one step to another channel. Solid quality signal. We will turn out the lights on it once the Astros are done this year.
  7. Now this is interesting. It annoys me that in YTTV’s strategy to keep a clean interface they forgot to have an area that lists out capabilities like this. I’m freaking googling YTTV shit every five minutes. It took me forever to figure out how to do what I wanted with the LG remote. Ridiculous. I never did figure out how to do certain things. I would normally agree with you, but as others have pointed out numerous times, some of the YTTV interface is very inefficient and of course lacks regional sports. I’m still determined to get comfortable enough with it to switch, but man some of it is an ass whip. Give me both. But hiding channels would help a lot. I just wish somewhere YTTV would have shared this golden information. Instead I have to go to the internet and follow this thread to find out the most basic info. YTTV lacks all of the intuitiveness of Apple products. How do I technically get my tv on a vpn?
  8. What’s the story with Harwell?
  9. It’s weird not being able to type in a channel on the remote. There is no one step way to get to a channel in yttv.
  10. I knew asu had ex Texas players. I didn’t realize they had so many. Prince Dorbah!
  11. Can you not select your own channels for multi view?
  12. Just be aware that to get that $30 credit they are slipping in a bunch of new terms and conditions like arbitration. I’m suspicious. Vixtory+. It’s out. Stars are in it. Mavs are still negotiating. We are about to do the same. The remote for yttv so far is suboptimal.
  13. So I’m trying out YTTV via both Roku and LGTV. The remotes and navigation is a bit awkward as compared to Uverse. I have a dumb question. With Uverse, because the channels are numbered, if I want to go to a high numbered channel that is far down the list I just type in the channel nimber. Since YTTV doesn’t have channel numbers, is there no way to quickly go to a channel way down the list of channels in one step, like I can with Uverse?
  14. I joined a bunch of Reddit conservative and Republican forums under a new user name. I wanted to see how these people are thinking now that the evidence is becoming overwhelming that Trump is unfit to be President. I’m happy to report that they are not as dumb as before. Unfortunately, they are dumber. For every single crazy thing he said, they’ve posted crazy news stories from propaganda websites that double down on the crazy. I’m sure many of those sources are North Korean, Russian and China sites. It depressing as hell that there are so many dumb people.
  15. A trained monkey could manage the revolutionary products created by Jobs leadership that are responsible for almost all of the revenue and profits of this company. Cook has been a bus driver of one of the greatest sets of product innovations in history. Those products are nothing but derivative products that have decimal points of business impact. Nothing burgers that are wholly dependent upon the iPhone for their success. Let’s see if his almost meaningless tenure turns around with some sort of revolutionary AI product or something else of significance. He still has some time.
  16. The day I decided to stop reading the game thread during the games was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
  17. Tim Cook has been riding Job’s innovations for his entire CEO tenure. I have spoken.
  18. I wish people would stop buying his cars. If not for the future of our democracy, how about just for the outrageous compensation package he got.
  19. KLBJ is the one of the biggest propaganda sources I’ve ever heard in my life. It’s pretty much the Rush Limbaugh of Austin. And they get these old callers calling in who have been completely fooled into believing they are hearing facts. It’s so sad.
  20. After listening to that babbling moronic Trump, it’s stunning that there are still so many idiots like this person above. The number and percentage of idiots in this country who can’t even process basic information is about an order of magnitude higher than I ever would have guessed. It really is shocking how many dumb gullible people are out there.
  21. So my wife made an interesting comment. She noticed that Trump never looked at Harris. She felt that was deeply offensive and felt women would subconsciously not like that one bit.
  22. I’m enraged the moderators keep giving Trump the last word on every issue.
  23. We arent talking about confusion. We’re talking about unnecessary use of force. And when the news comes out about the investigation on this, you’re going to be embarrassed at what you’ve written.
  24. We have an exciting, electric real estate thread, but no, not a boring one. I bet there’s .5-.75% that does, and that will matter.
  25. Harris should destroy Trump tonight, but of course Fox News will declare victory no matter what. In my opinion the two demographics she has to capture and hold onto are midrange aged men and women who are politically in the middle and bounce back and forth between parties. For those folks, when she goes on the attack it should be very effective. But with the world the way it is, even today, she has to guard against being so aggressive that somehow the script gets flipped and she comes across as a shrieking liberal and he gets a small amount of sympathy. I’m confident she will strike the right balance, because so far her campaign has.
