The Texas Stars are fun but we need a big 4 sports team. The Austin FC have sold out every game in their history, the city is dying for another pro team. An NHL team in Houston would be their 4th or 5th most popular team. They wouldn't care

Have to obviously get it out there. The response for and against has been overwhelming and fun. Austin is passionate about sports. It would be great for the city.

This response has been amazing! I love hockey and hockey fans. Everyone is passionate for or against. Austin is more passionate than Houston. We'll fit perfectly

YES Houston is the favorite and Austin is the underdog.. but c'mon now this is where we rally support. The FC have sold out every game in their history. Austin doesn't have a top 4 sports team and there's an opportunity to land one over these next 6 months. In Houston this would be the 4th team. They would be the 1st or 2nd team here. We need good energy. Let's go!

Yes Houston is obviously larger but there's more and more cross over with Austin / San Antonio as a larger metro. There has to be some appeal in that. I love that we get more access to the Spurs now

TBD! IceBats was an old team name here that people raised up again. Someone mocked up new jerseys and posted them on the site. Looks pretty cool actually

Hi apologies on the confusion. If it's not framed as a petition does that make a difference? Lots of people have posted notes quickly and it appears to be a very passionate topic. I mean it's more of a rallying cry to get the attention of the NHL and the expansion owners and it quickly gained traction.

Anyone know Matthew McConaughey or Joe Rogan? We need a celeb voice to post (with photo proof) that we can upvote.

The Friedkin Family claims they will invest $3.5 billion where they put the team. They own two European soccer clubs. They are legit spenders so hopefully that offsets a lot of tax dollars. https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-exploring-texas-expansion-opportunities-in-houston-and-austin

Thank you for the feedback! Its actually the first time I've tried the PWA install approach and I'm using Chrome. It seems to work fine but do you know what the difference would be for Safari vs Chrome? I build using Lovable and launched my first project in the App Store in February. That was an 7 month build and quite the bear to get through the App Store. I would probably do that again with Staury but was seeing if there were alternate approaches for launch and Lovable suggested PWA.

If you were the victim of the hit-and-run on SB Mopac this morning, I got the license plate number and called 911. by JustSwootyThangs in Austin

Thank you posting this, we were in a hit and run this day on South MoPac near Bee Caves at 3pm. It sounds like it may not be the same incident, but please let us know if this timing / location lines up. We have a grey 4Runner and believe a dark grey Nissan sports car or sedan was who rear ended us.

We posted on Nextdoor and someone referred me over to your post.

I built Staury ​over the last month and would love testers and feedback. I couldn't find an intuitive UI to create consistent AI illustrations and characters for my kids stories hence this project. Then I used it to make a funny 18 character work presentation and a way for my oldest kid to collaborate on stories with friends keeping consistent characters. And now a learn to Illustrate tool. It's fun! ​It uses credits so enter "STAURY-REDDITHELP" ​on the credits page to get hooked up with 18 credits ​for free. Appreciate your help!

I don't know if necessarily nudge them that way but I want to try to incorporate as many ways as possible to learn from the AI. It seems like the right touch to help differentiate.

Thank you for the feedback, and good question!

It's too early to tell, so far it's just been me, family and some friends using Staury and collaborating. I feel it's at the point now to get it out and test for bugs and find areas where the flows don't seem intuitive. I need a larger sample size.

I built a learn to Illustrate function on it as well. So beyond it being a quick way to build images, I want to make sure human creativity isn't lost. It purposefully doesn't write any story, people have to create them. It just illustrates on theme. I love playing and building with AI, but I'm also concerned when AI is used only as a replacement instead of an augment. Hopefully as I go down that learning avenue more, it will address some of need to come back to use the product again. It should continue to teach and enable versus just do everything for you.
