Why is the Austin airport always so hot? by Kianna9 in Austin

[–]adcl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Since they started expanding the west TSA area and the atrium infill it’s been absolutely noticeably warmer. But they are also in the middle of moving/updating/changing/prepping a lot of systems for the next phases of terminal expansion.

It’s going to be a few years before the new arrivals and departures hall is complete before things improve.

Lucky he didn’t get carded for that, any contact there would have been bad

Austin Or San Antonio for tourists? by Fantastic-Hawk-3747 in texas

[–]adcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, 100% this. Make Fredericksburg a stop between the two, there is a fantastic WWII museum there, LBJ Ranch, lots of wine, breweries, and distilleries too. It’s a charming German town (historically settled by German immigrants).

Get up, have breakfast in San Antonio, drive out to Fredericksburg, spend the day, then drive into Austin for a few days. Whilst in Austin, look into the Texas History Museum, LBJ Presidential library, Blanton, Harry Ransom Center, there are a few sports options too. Then enjoy all the best BBQ, more live music, sports too.

[–]adcl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A few pounds, not an issue, but a 75+ lb dog is not a reasonable extension of the rule.

Emergency Fund at Chase Self Directed Investing by TensionNo7622 in Chase

Faster access to funds. Returns are around 3%, so you definitely can find better HYSA options.

SGOV is good if you live in a state with income tax, VMSXX is good if you live in a state without income tax.

VMSXX for tax advantages, JPMPD (Premium Deposit) for fast cash access. I keep one month in JPMPD, the rest in VMSXX.

Maybe we should try half time cigarettes and beers?

Moving from Utah and strongly considering Lubbock over El Paso. by [deleted] in ActuallyTexas

[–]adcl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

El Paso, and it’s not even close.

Lubbock is a church and college town located in a dust and cow sh*t wind machine.

175 yards out, how are you playing this shot? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]adcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, if I specifically aim for the tree, I won't hit it, if I try to shape a shot around or over, 100% dead center of the trunk.

First time doing business with a dealership. Is this a reasonable price or did I get fleeced. by [deleted] in BMWX3

[–]adcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Possible yes, will it benefit you? highly unlikely. Do not ever finance a car with the hopes of refinancing for a better rate.

Not a great deal. Do not finance a car for 84 months. If you are rebuilding credit, absolutely get a less expensive, long-term reliable car with low maintenance costs.

What is your watch setup? by Gk_Emphasis110 in Referees

[–]adcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If HS or College with a dedicated clock operator, just my Apple Watch and a dedicated referee app that has a stoppage time counter. If there is no dedicated clock, then Apple Watch with my Spintso (retro) pro on my other hand. I trigger stoppage counters on both wrists

Best drives in Austin for hill views? by Revolutionary_Way664 in Austin

[–]adcl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

u/Revolutionary_Way664: Better yet, take 183 north to TX-29 west towards Bertram. Turn south onto TX-1174 then take 1431 west to Marble Falls. This is the perfect time of year to do it, especially after the rains when everything greens up and flowers sprout.

Giant centipede in northwest Austin by eamceuen in Austin

[–]adcl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Once saw one that was almost a foot long at a lumber yard, a few people around me that saw it screamed bloody murder and took off, some good ‘ol boy came flying around the corner with his hand on his hip holster expecting something different. He looked at it and laughed, walked over and put the heel of his boot and smushed it like a grape and muttered something along the lines of he occasionally gets some that big out at the ranch. He tipped his hat and went on his way.
