  1. Hmmm, I think the quartz crucibles are used in the manufacture of most silicon substrates, for most applications. The quartz crucible can withstand higher temperatures than silicon or GaAs so it is used as the container from which the base ingredients are melted, and the silicon substrate ingots are grown. This is basically the earliest step in the wafer fabrication process and fortunately quartz crucibles are long-lasting, they are by no means one of the consumables in the industry, so I wouldn't expect it to really impact the industry for another year or so. Hopefully cleanup and workaround solutions can be found in the interim.
  2. Brent Venables enjoyed watching The Golden Bachelor.
  3. Well let's be honest, the ags had Reed on a much shorter noose... err, rope... than Wiggy, in the first place.
  4. Yeah I think this is the real key. Our game was on SECN. Nobody watched it. Voters will look at the box scores, think "hmmm Texas didn't win by 50 but they still won pretty handily" and that's about it. I wouldn't be surprised if Texas remains #1. But I'd understand if we drop a spot or two, as well. Regardless, none of that changes how poorly the team actually played yesterday against a terrible opponent, and how much improvement is desperately needed before playing against the sooners and bulldogs.
  5. Clear evidence that Texas has ruined the SEC, ya stoopid sip!
  6. I mean, it wasn't really beer. It was Mich Ultra.
  7. Don't do Texas-Vanderbilt!
  8. This sweet beauty is all mine. Authentic vintage late 70s Longhorn ballcap. At least 3 shades of orange, two of them dramatically wrong. The back is genuine faded-to-yellowish mesh. @MaxHorn has vowed to take it off my dead body someday if necessary...
  9. You could just acknowledge that you're wrong, it is a big deal, RBR screwed up, and then we could all move along.
  10. Yup. And they also count capital fundraising campaign donations as revenue from operations.
  11. Yeah, but their song "Metal Health" off their album "Women and Children First" was a real banger.
  12. ...on the other hand, RBR thoroughly deserves Checo tanking their season, so I'll allow it...
  13. Just a crappy deal all the way around. I wish it could have been otherwise, and I wish he'd at least had the chance to race here in Austin one more time. He'll be missed
  14. Yeah and it wouldn't be able to fly as a legitimate NIL deal, so it would have to be a bag under the table. In which case, there's no difference between now and the past 100 years when any booster at one program COULD potentially pay an opponent not to play.
  15. Wow. Who is "Coach Glove" talking about, at A&M?
  16. Yup. I had no idea it was even raining anywhere in Austin, being up here in NW Travis, until AUS-97Horn mentioned it yesterday. It was just sort of cloudy here.
  17. Yeah that was a weird, very localized storm. The vast majority of Greater Austin got nothing, but Lanier High School seems to have taken the length at 2.24".
  18. I like Roll Call better as well, but the Vandy Pimp is great. I want to see Vandy win a lot this season just to ensure he remains. Not against Texas though, of course. We've got a 3-8-1 record to start avenging.
  19. "American officials seem like they suck." -American Citizens
  20. Look, you've shared your opinions, and clearly the vast majority of responding posters have disagreed with you. I have no idea why some Texas fans insist on acting like they're above this rivalry. Rivalries are the lifeblood of college football and one of the few remaining reasons why it's different and better than the professional version of the sport. This IS a rivalry. It's a lopsided one to be sure, but the 1,538 page thread on the main football board, along with this 548 page thread on the recruiting board, prove that Texas fans DO care about the game. You might not and that's fine, but you're in the minority and there aren't many who agree with you. As for the highlighted section, I haven't seen anyone suggesting that. I'm not sure where you're getting it? But it's a silly hypothetical anyway. If Texas isn't capable of beating THIS aggie team, then Texas isn't going to win the national championship anyway.
  21. Beetlejuice is one of my favorite movies all time, every Halloween I do a big Beetlejuice themed yard. Saw this one on Sunday and really enjoyed it, it was a lot of fun. I liked the callbacks and also liked that this story was new and different. Really glad to see it being so well received by the public, too.
