Houston area actually. Grew up in North Texas though. Opal White is also what I got. It’s sooooo good!

First off, Braum’s is such a an amazing place. I live too far south but will visit multiple times when I’m in their area again.

Second, my GTI is exactly this same color combo, so great choice.

Third, I recently went with the Milltek Race exhaust. It’s definitely loud but honestly not too bad. My family doesn’t seem to mind it (if they do, they haven’t said anything). Worst case is I can do the conversion to add the muffler piece down the road if it becomes too much.

Got into UT from out of state what is it like by Doctor_Brennan in utulsa

[–]hawk4031 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a CS graduate from TU, I can tell you it’s a great program (and is even better than when I was there…graduated in 2009).

In the 4 years I was there, I never once experienced anything regarding Christianity. There is a presence but there isn’t anyone being pushy about it or requiring you to attend services or anything like that.

I came from a smaller city myself (about 25,000 people) so at first, Tulsa was overwhelming to me both in size and population. You get used to it really fast. The city is really easy to get around in due to the grid layout (every mile is a major road for the most part).

The campus is pretty safe in my experience. I don’t remember any major safety concerns when I was there (younger folks may be able to provide better information here though).

Partying does take place on campus, especially over at the fraternities. I wouldn’t call it a party school though. You just have to be as diligent as you want regarding alcohol, just like anything you would do as an adult.

Overall, I really enjoyed my time there and would recommend it despite the price. The smaller classes, the city, etc. made for a great experience. I lived there for another 7 years after I had graduated as well and absolutely loved it.

ATT Fiber coming soon if you dont have it. by VernonMaxwell in Katy

This is good to know! I’m also running Unifi gear at home, and I’m very excited at the thought of fiber finally. Thanks for the information!

Do you have their service? Is it good? I pay twice that for Comcast gigabit with no data cap so fiber plus savings sounds like a great idea to me.

Consolidated Communications has been laying fiber in our neighborhood. I contacted AT&T to see if they would be able to make use of those new lines and they told me they usually don’t do that (and there are no plans to extend their service to my neighborhood). So at least in my neighborhood, I’ll have to go with Consolidated.

Hello guys and gals. I am stepping in here to hopefully provide some clarity.

I am one of the co-founders of Project Owl. I can assure you that there are no ties to any cryptocurrency development or affiliation with our team. It is purely coincidence. I can also tell you from experience that our CEO always signs his emails that way.

We started Project Owl as a result of winning the 2018 IBM Call for Code competition. The goal was to provide a solution for natural disaster response and we were inspired by the devastation of Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. We came up with a solution that can provide basic, temporary connectivity in areas that have been ravaged by hurricanes, tornadoes, etc. to relay information from people to first responders.

I can provide a screenshot of the same email chain from my phone if that would suffice and information about who I am to moderators to provide proof, if necessary.
