This is the only way 130 will ever be a viable alternative to I-35 through Austin. And it’s also the only way I-35 congestion will be lessened.

Are you woefully blind or just willfully ignorant? 130 is far from the first state highway built as a toll road in the last 20 years, and it will be far from the last. Roads are supposed to be a public good, paid for by the gas tax and federal taxes/assistance. But because our good ol’ boy state government (I’m…

That was beautiful. Needs moar stars.

No just trucks, toll I-35 through central Austin period.

There’s hardly anyone on the southern half of the road. The northern half is pretty heavily traveled between RR and 71. Otherwise I agree. It is WAY too far out of the way to be an alternative for I-35, especially because it’s tolled.

That tipping point will NEVER arrive as long as 130 is tolled. The tolls and the fact that it’s so far east of Austin are the reason it’s failed like it has. If they really want to reduce traffic and congestion on I-35 through Austin, it needs to be tolled and the tolls removed from 130. Until that happens, 130…

You are most definitely not overreacting. That shit is weird. At least take off the mask if you don’t have the time to change out of the costume. But keeping the mask on? When it’s not Easter day/weekend? That shit is just fucking creepy.

And people still can’t fathom why the NFL is on it’s way down. Such classy fans it attracts!

Seriously. Why the hell in this day and age of firearm proliferation in this country anyone would think it’s a good idea to dress up like a creepy clown is beyond me. I don’t have coulrophobia, but if I see some creepy ass clown staring at me or my kids, you can bet your ass I’m chasing that motherfucker down and…

that’s the kinda shit that gets a motherfucker killed

Absolutely not, especially as they do not have any US based operations.

Except that McLaren is a British company and doesn’t have to comply with SEC regulations, and they’re also not public. McLaren is privately held. Try again.

It’s like when people call the desktop a CPU. No, the CPU is the little chip inside of the desktop that makes everything magically happen.

I starred your comment because you’re factually correct, but I have no pity for a company like Apple in paying the corporate tax rate on money they’ve earned abroad while being based in America and being able to take advantage of the stability and rule of law that is America.

I’ve never had an issue with TM, though there is always a first time for everything. I back up all critical items to the cloud, so I could care less if I have to reinstall macOS.

Again, most people aren’t going to go to all of that trouble and will simply use Time Machine. But hey, go get ‘em help desk!!

Or you could just use TimeMachine and run a backup before you upgrade. Your list is what a help desk/tech support department would use. For everyone else, if something doesn’t work after the upgrade, just restore from your backup.

Much as I loved playing football as a kid, there’s no way in hell I’ll let my boy play. I don’t even care that much for the NFL anymore, don’t watch it every weekend like I used to. I do still love college football though. To your timeline of death for the NFL though, I’m not so sure. As long as the NFL has the rabid…

I think a race in Chitown would be awesome, even if there aren’t really any elevation changes in the track!

That’s correct. $25M sanctioning fee is a bit steep, me thinks. And unless you’re a dictator, that money has to come through normal channels/methods.
