  1. This is stupid. Why reward him for being a traitor. PGA players are fucking stupid. Rory on Jon:
  2. Clarification. Not as impressive and real time as the video portrays. Still pretty damn impressive. https://techcrunch.com/2023/12/07/googles-best-gemini-demo-was-faked/
  3. The details behind the video. https://developers.googleblog.com/2023/12/how-its-made-gemini-multimodal-prompting.html
  4. Google Gemini Logic, Reasoning, Humor...
  5. Reports from campus life. The sororities have an annual dance contest, sans pole of course. Arch was one of the judges in this year's competition. Just Keep On Livin the dream, young man. Reports are that he was "kinda shy", but being in a place full of sorority girls would probably do that to any Freshman.
  6. Who are the dipshits on this site who would still vote for this sleazeball? DCAR PilotsError Whatever incarnation of Rex Macklemore
  7. Bro, Jesus loves guns and capitalism. What you do hate America and Jesus?
  8. Also fuck letting them play in the Ryder Cup. Fuck Zach Johnson for letting Douche Koepka play in the Ryder. Ban them from that event. Ostracize those motherfuckers. If you let these assholes get their money and still participate in Majors and Ryders, what's keeping other big names from jumping. That was beyond fucking stupid.
  9. I don't blame him one bit for taking that obscene amount of money. JJ Watt is his good friend, and he told John that he would kick John's ass if he didn't take that deal. I like John but I won't miss him for a minute just like I don't miss any of the golfers who have jumped. There's plenty of great golf played almost every weekend. Enjoy the money and no one watching, John.
  10. Kiffin and Sark are good friends. You know in private they talk all kinds of shit about aggy. How the fuck can you not?
  11. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/anthony-polito-s-know-unlv-shooting-suspect-accused-killing-3-wounding-rcna128499 According to Polito’s LinkedIn, he was an associate professor at East Carolina University in North Carolina from August 2001 to January 2017. NBC News reached out to the university for comment. Several students praised him and his classes, according to posts on ratemyprofessors.com. “Dr. Polito’s class is one of my favorite classes that I have taken. He provides so many real-world examples with stories which further drive the understanding of concepts. This isn’t taught as a ‘typical’ class which is looked down on but I have learned so much and retained the concepts in this class than any other class I have taken,” a November 2016 post read. Another student called him the “best professor at ECU,” according to an October 2016 post. In a December 2014 post, a student called his teaching style “unorthodox” but said he was a “cool guy.” He probably threatened to shoot his previous classes if they didn't give him 5 Stars!! Too soon?
  12. We have schools shooting. Our leaders response is "don't limit access to guns, bro, hire more security at the schools." Ok....let's pass funding for the schools to develop more secure campuses. NOPE, the assholes can't be bothered to vote on it. Now they are blaming each other. Here's a fucking idea. Why do we even need a bill to support this?????? The state has a huge excess in the Robinhood school funding. Austin alone gave ~$800M to Robinhood. Austin ISD's contribution alone could pay for this fucking program. Why doesn't the state use that excess Robinhood money to help ISDs pay for security? Nope, they'd rather used the excess money to brag about reducing the state budget but then they have to raise a separate bill for this. Fuck you if you still vote for these assclowns to stay in office? https://www.kxan.com/news/texas-schools-disappointed-after-legislature-leaves-800m-for-safety-on-the-table/ AUSTIN (Nexstar) — Some Texas school leaders are feeling frustrated after state lawmakers gaveled out, likely for the rest of the year, without passing funds already set aside to help school districts pay for new safety and security measures mandated by the state. BACKGROUND: Texas Legislature finishes fourth special session without school vouchers, public education funds and more Left on the table included a proposal that would have funneled $800 million for school safety initiatives, which school districts have struggled with meeting under a new law. Senate Bill 5 from the fourth special session was tasked with various school funding measures, including “doubling the per campus allotments and per student allotments” for improved safety measures made into Texas law earlier this year under House Bill 3. House Bill 3 in the regular session this year made it a requirement for every Texas campus to have an armed person. The measure proved difficult for school campuses to fulfill, as HB 3 allotted only $10 per student for funding the safety measures and $15,000 per campus. Arnett said his school constitutes and him have had go into “reserves to identify other efficiencies” to meet the requirements. “It costs somewhere around $100,000 per officer just to get them equipped, get them trained, and put them on campus,” Jarrell Independent School District Police Chief Sharif Mezayek told Nexstar in August. Dr. Jeff Arnett, superintendent of Eanes Independent School District, said he was “disappointed” the legislation didn’t get across the finish line once again. “We’re responsible for, as a school district, to now provide additional funding hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars. Depending upon the size of the school district it is extremely complicated, if not impossible,” he said. Arnett said he appreciates the Legislature’s focus on school safety measures, but was upset to see politics get in the way of passing the bills to help districts fund the mandates in place to help keep students and faculty safe. The failed school safety bill, amongst other bills, were casualties of a broader debate around Gov. Greg Abbott’s key priority and main reason for the third and fourth special sessions — education savings accounts, also referred to as school choice or school vouchers. The governor has said he would veto any education legislation that comes to his desk without a done deal on ESAs, which the House killed before the Thanksgiving holiday. Arnett asked lawmakers to consider the education bills — which also had included proposals for teacher pay raises and increasing the basic allotment for public schools — by themselves. “Please consider these things individually on their own merits, if you’re going to mandate them, then understand the need understand the cost of implementing these measures. And all of these deserve debate and discussion. But consider them separately so one is not tied to the other. We’re not leveraging one to gain the momentum behind another measure,” Arnett said. SB 5 was passed by the Senate last week, but was never brought up in the lower chamber. In a Tuesday press conference, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick slammed House Speaker Dade Phelan for not bringing up the school safety funding bill, along with another unrelated bill, to the floor in the last week of the special session. Patrick appeared to intentionally mispronounce Phelan’s last name as “Fail-in” on numerous occasions throughout the press conference. “We passed the bill over there for $800 million now for school districts. It died today because Dade Phelan said ‘I can’t do anything in six days.’ If you can’t pass it on six days and you’ve got the wrong job and he needs to resign,” Patrick said. Phelan tried to quash the notion that the House is to blame for failed school safety funding in a statement he shared online after the Senate passed SB 5. The speaker pointed numerous measures the House passed during the regular session to fund school safety measures, but were not taken up by the Senate. “Now the Senate has proposed an entirely new bill…so that Dan Patrick can take to social media, pretending to care about adequately funding school safety while blaming others for the ramifications of his own inactions,” Phelan wrote. Abbott has not indicated if or when he will call a fifth special session to address all of the education issues that failed in the 2023 sessions.
  13. Our team culture is not going to allow that shit. The players police their own.
  14. Imagine? Our previous 2 head coaches made us live through it.
  15. They are blaming Texas for everything. It's fucking glorious. This is what we've been missing for 12 years, battered aggy syndrome.
  16. Reagan HS is majority minorities. Odd that he would pass up the South burb high schools for a minority one in North Austin.
