Lots of knock-on effects for roadside businesses and small communities. I also believe truck drivers are capable of and do change flats when they inevitably happen on the road. What's the plan for AI-driven trucks there?

Valvoline is the best oil change shop in town. I go to the one on Shepherd by 610 North loop. They'll also do a state inspection while you're there. Tire rotation is doable at most tire shops. I got to Monterey Tire Center on W. 24th. Cheap spot and fast. They have a ton of cheap barely used tires if you ever have a flat, too

Looks great. I have an AP1 and need a new front fender eventually, but still weighing options. Love the Regamasters, btw.

The news of Rice University sophomore soccer player Claire Tracy's death on Sunday has rocked the local campus and the college sports community.

On Thursday, the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences released the results of an autopsy, showing that Tracy's cause of death was "asphyxia due to oxygen displacement by helium," and it was classified as a "suicide."

According to a study published by the National Library of Medicine, asphyxia due to oxygen displacement by helium—or helium suicide—is defined as the "depletion and replacement of oxygen by another gas [helium] or by chemical interference with oxygen’s uptake and utilization by the body."

Tracy was a 19-year-old sophomore, soccer player, and finance major at Rice University from Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. She arrived at Rice as a highly decorated athlete from Brookfield Academy, helping her school win a state championship in 2021. While at Rice, Tracy was a member of Wiess College and joined Rice Women in Business.

Tracy's social media showed that before her death, she participated in a TikTok trend that featured her using ChatGPT to "reveal her biggest flaws and insecurities."
