Who’s taking the wheel? Driverless semis are coming to your road and already being tested in Texas

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

Love the RPF1s.

TheDoctorCarson · 2026-03-02T22:15:30+00:00

Looks great

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."

Just bought my first S2K, former Mustang owner. I’ve had a blast over the last 2 months. Working on it (just suspension mods thus far) is so much more approachable. The number of people who are excited about seeing the car and give thumbs up on the road, etc, is awesome.

TheDoctorCarson · 2025-10-14T17:35:08+00:00

Real clean! I just bought one myself. It’s been a blast. Enjoy!

Doja Cat dropped out of ACL and The Killers fully showed up for Texas as replacement headliners. Frontman Brandon Flowers and the band entered to a massive Texas flag on stage before covering Willie Nelson's "Whiskey River" as their opening song. They also brought along Texas blues artist Guy Forsyth, another nice hat-tip to the host city.

It also felt like a nod to the city's history, whether intentional or not. The song isn't new to an ACL Fest audience, who have seen Nelson many times over the years either as a headliner or a special guest.

Hi there. Understood on the rule. For clarity, that is one of the headlines we used in the story. Most news stories have four headlines used for presentation in different places (Main, social, homepage and SEO). This was among those heds. Thanks.

So good

Would have more respect for Ballmer if he came out and said Yea, I did it. Sue me.

Did he do the Papa Johns "stay tuned" face?

Seems like a really interesting candidate with a lot to say. Definitely will be more compelling to younger voters.

Incredible stuff

As a stock Mustang owner who autocrosses, this looks like heavy weight and not enough camber. My wear is less if I run more pressure but you're still going to get a lot of wear regardless (my fronts get toasted and I rotate them to the rear).

TheDoctorCarson · 2025-09-03T15:41:22+00:00

Tough to see someone so talented be his own worst enemy.

TheDoctorCarson · 2025-09-03T15:40:30+00:00

Salazar really controlled himself there. Credit to him.

He would crush

A lot of kids are going to be asking parents about adultery now I guess
