2024.06.02 08:45 CentennialElections 2024 Presidential Prediction (6/1/2024)

 2024 Presidential Prediction (6/1/2024)
Presidential (Margins: 1/5/15)
Even though Trump got convicted a few days ago, my prediction for the presidential race from last month really hasn't changed yet. After the sentencing, if Trump's support starts to drop dramatically, then I would likely make changes in my August to early November predictions to reflect that. For now, I still think Biden has an underrated chance of winning, but it's still looking to be very close, closer than 2020. Unlike last month, however, I'd like to go into detail about why I have these placements.
Likely Republican States:
  • Missouri: Even though this was a Safe Republican state in 2016 and 2020, it only barely went over 15% for Trump. In 2020, it even trended left relative to the nation (18.51% to 15.39%, 20.6% to 19.84%). More importantly, much like in Kansas, the percentage of vote the GOP gets in the rurals have largely been in the 70s-80s, while the suburbs are competitive and within reach for Democrats. With that in mind, I could see Missouri dipping just below 15% in 2024. I've seen the same argument made for Indiana too, though I'm a little more hesitant with that (for now) since it was a point or two redder than Missouri.
    • Predicted Margin: R+14-14.5
  • South Carolina: Should be self-explanatory. For the last several elections, South Carolina has been in the Likely Republican range. When adjusting for national environment, SC has remained rather stagnant, hovering around 14-16% of the national environment. Right now, there's nothing to indicate that will change much at all.
    • Predicted Margin: R+12-12.5
  • Kansas: As I mentioned with Missouri, Kansas' rurals are starting to max out, while the suburban areas are becoming better for Democrats. It's happening a lot faster for Kansas than for Missouri though. In particular, the state's 5 most populated counties, Johnson, Sedgwick, Shawnee, Wyandotte, and Douglas have all been moving to the left It's been trending to the left relative to the nation since 2012 (21.61%, 20.42%, 14.65%; when adjusting for NPV - 25.47%, 22.51%, 19.10%). As such, I expect Kansas to be more competitive in 2024, though not below 10%.
    • Predicted Margin: R+11.5-12
  • Nebraska's 1st Congressional District: Similarly to Kansas, Nebraska's 1st has been seeing some strong trends to the left (alongside the 2nd District). While it has been redder than Kansas so far, the recent redistricting has flipped their positions, with NE-01 being bluer now (taking away from NE-02).
    • Predicted Margin: R+10.5-11
  • Iowa: Iowa has been fairly red from 2016 onwards, and unlike in Ohio, Democrats have only one statewide office - Auditor. No senators, no members of Congress... almost nothing. It did go from R+9.41 to R+8.2 in 2020, but relative to the nation, it actually trended right (11.50% to 12.65%). I don't really see how this state could move left without Biden outperforming nationwide.
    • Predicted Margin: R+9-10
  • Alaska: Alaska has s remained fairly Republican since 1968 (when Nixon narrowly won it), though it's been trending left for quite a while. In 2008, it voted for McCain by 21.53% (28.81% when adjusted for NPV), but in 2020, Trump only won it by 10.06% (14.51% when adjusted). Certain areas, like Anchorage, are getting a lot bluer. Additionally, Mary Peltola recently won the house race in 2022. That said, Anchorage is losing population despite its blue shift, and the WWC Mat-Su valley is growing in population. I still think it could shift left somewhat, but it will still be Likely Republican.
    • Predicted Margin: R+8.5-9.5
  • Ohio: Similar to Iowa, Ohio has been competitive for a while until 2016, and since then it's been fairly red. In both 2016 and 2020, it voted for Trump by about 8%, even trending to the right of the nation (10.16% vs 12.48%). Unlike in Iowa, though, Ohio Dems hold one statewide office - Senator Sherrod Brown. Additionally, while the rurals have gotten much redder, the suburbs are shifting blue, which could offset some of the Republican trends going on in the state. I don't see it moving much either way right now.
    • Predicted Margin: R+8-9
  • Florida: As with Ohio, Florida used to be a key battleground state, though the transition into a more Republican state was more gradual. Even before the 2022 midterms blowout, Florida seemed to be moving to the right. Although Biden did better nationwide than Clinton, he performed worse in Florida (1.20% vs 3.36%; adjusted - 3.29% vs 7.81%). Since then, Democrats have had only minor victories in Florida, and the registration numbers for Republicans have been going through the roof. While I think the rightward trends in Florida are sometimes exaggerated, they are real, and I don't see Biden doing well there.
    • Predicted Margin: R+7.5-8
  • Maine's 2nd Congressional District: Once a decently Democratic district, ME-02 has become far more Republican since 2016. It moved a bit to the left in 2020 (10.29% to 7.44%; when adjusted for NPV - 12.38% to 11.89%), though I don't think it will move that far to the left. It's kind of hard to tell where it will go since its such a small district, though it should remain Likely Republican.
    • Predicted Margin: R+7-8
Likely Democrat States:
  • Virginia: This state has been moving to the left since 2008, especially between 2016 and 2020 (5.32% to 10.11%, 3.23% to 5.66% to the left of the nation) due to growth in the suburbs and opposition to Trump. Yes, Youngkin did win the governor's race, and many polls have Virginia looking competitive, but I don't buy that Trump will do much better here than in 2020. He may gain a bit, but northern Virginia should still remain fairly opposed to Trump.
    • Predicted Margin: D+9.5-10.5
  • New Mexico: After 2008, New Mexico has remained around 6-7% to the left of the national environment, being a Likely Blue state. Since 2020, many areas have seen a shift to the right among Hispanic voters, especially in Florida. While Hispanic voters aren't a monolith, Trump does seem to be making gains with this group across the board. As NM has a lot of Hispanic voters, this could lead to Trump making some gains in the state, though not enough to make it very competitive.
    • Predicted Margin: D+9.5-10
  • New Hampshire: Historically, New Hampshire has been rather elastic, and its voting patterns suggest a tendency to go against incumbents. But in 2020, things changed - NH went from D+0.37 to D+7.35 (1.72% to the right of the nation to 2.90% to the right of the nation). Furthermore, New Hampshire has a lot that makes it a bright spot for Biden (linked because that comment explained it better than I could, and I don't want to make this explanation too long). For those reasons, I expect Biden to improve on his performance in New Hampshire by quite a bit.
    • Predicted Margin: D+9-9.5
  • Maine: Like New Hampshire, although to a lesser extent, Maine became more competitive in 2016 (going to Clinton by 2.96%, 0.87% to the left of the nation). In 2020, though, Biden won Maine at large by 9.07% (and 4.62% to the left of the national environment). Unlike New Hampshire, I don't imagine this state moving to the left in 2024. It's a fairly rural state, and it isn't quite as socially liberal. I imagine it will move a bit to the right due to the growing urban/rural divide, though nowhere near enough for it to be Lean D.
    • Predicted Margin: D+8-8.5
  • Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District: As a very suburban district, Nebraska's 2nd District has been trending to the left fairly quickly since 2012 - R+7.15, R+2.24, and D+6.64 (national environment comparison - R+11.01, R+4.33, D+2.19). While redistricting has made NE-02 less blue (and made NE-01 bluer), the suburban district is still trending to the left, and that should be enough to make up for the redistricting.
    • Predicted Margin: D+6.5-7.5
  • Minnesota: Although Minnesota moved to the left in 2020 after being very close, similar to Maine and New Hampshire, it appears to be more likely to move right compared to those two states. Minnesota is very open to third parties, and those third parties tend to take votes away from Democrats. Third parties get a lot of votes in New Hampshire and Maine too, but their demographics are more favorable to Democrats (especially New Hampshire), while Minnesota has a large WWC population that Trump could pull from. While I doubt it will be Lean Democratic, it should be closer than in 2020.
    • Predicted Margin: D+5.5-6.5
Lean Republican States:
  • Texas: Since 2012, Texas has been moving to the left due to population growth and blue trends in suburbs and urban areas, giving Democrats hope that the state may be flippable in the near future. In 2020, though, the Rio Grande Valley, a traditionally Democratic area, shifted very far to the right. Most of the region is low in population, with the exception of Hidalgo County, the 8th largest in the state. While Democrats have a fair amount of obstacles in the state of Texas, I do think Democrats are likely to make at least some gains here. The RGV, and other rural areas, while shifting to the right, are losing population, while many highly populated areas (not just the Bexar, Travis, and Dallas counties, but many surrounding ones such as Collin, Denton, and Tarrant too) are growing in population. While I think the rural trends will slow down the leftward trend of Texas, I don't think it will be enough to stop them fully, let alone reverse them. But they won't move the state very far left, which is why I put it at the higher end of Lean Republican.
    • Predicted Margin: R+4-4.5
  • North Carolina: From 2012 to 2020, North Carolina has remained between 5.7 and 5.9 percent to the right of the national environment. The leftward urban trends and rural rightward trends appear to be cancelling each other out. Biden is capable of winning NC, particularly if things improve for him in the future (ex: Trump actually gets jailed), but right now, I see him doing better than Clinton did in 2016, and a bit worse than he did in 2020.
    • Predicted Margin: R+1.5-2
Lean Democrat States:
  • Michigan: I really don't buy the argument that Michigan will be the second bluest or reddest out of the rust belt trio (MI, WI, and PA). Yes, Biden could struggle with getting turnout from Arab Americans and college voters because of Gaza and other issues, but these populations don't make up as much of the state as people think. Furthermore, the suburbs are growing in population and trending more to the left. If Trump continues to lose ground in Grand Rapids, Lansing, Grand Traverse, or suburban Detroit, lowered turnout in Arab-American and college areas won't be enough to offset that. I'm hesitant to say Michigan will be bluer than it was in 2020, but I don't think it will be much redder either, especially since it was the only one of the trio to move to the left relative to the national environment (R+0.22 to D+2.78; R+2.31 to R+1.67 when adjusted for NPV).
    • Predicted Margin: D+2-3
  • Arizona: Even before the court decision on abortion came out not too long about, I've become more skeptical about Trump's chances to win Arizona. It's a state that has rejected Trump and his brand of Republicanism over the last several years - Mark Kelly won both the 2020 special senate election and his 2022 race, and Katie Hobbs overperformed polling to defeat Kari Lake, albeit narrowly. Furthermore, Maricopa and Pima are two counties that are not only trending left fairly quickly, but make up a massive chunk of the state. Combined, they make up 5,649,033 people, compared to the state's total population of 7,431,344 (76.02%). Also, Trump insulting McCain frequently hasn't helped him with traditional Republicans in the state. Trump can win Arizona, but I see this state being his worst swing state by far, besides (maybe) Michigan. Santa Cruz and Yuma are two areas I can see shifting right, but that's nowhere near enough to counter the shifts in Maricopa and Pima.
    • Predicted Margin: D+1.5-2.5
Tilt Republican States:
  • Wisconsin: This one was really hard to decide for me. On one hand, Democrats outperformed polling expectations in the 2022 Senate and Gubernatorial races. Democrats have also been gaining in the WOW counties (Waukesha, Ozaukee, and Washington), and they've been able to win Wisconsin in 3/4 of the non-Obama elections in the 21st century (albeit by less than 1% every time). Plus, polling suggests that this state is one of Biden's better options. On the other hand, Wisconsin polling really overestimated Biden, putting it to the left of Pennsylvania, and even Michigan. Plus, Trump has a lot of room to grow in rural areas (and while it went from R+0.77 to D+0.63, when adjusted for NPV, it trended right; R+1.32 to R+3.82). I'm very unsure how this state will go, and I can see an argument for it being Tilt either way. For now, I'm keeping it at Tilt Republican, though that could easily change in the next few months. Either way, I'd say that this is Trump's easiest state to flip.
    • Predicted Margin: R+0-0.5
Tilt Democrat States:
  • Georgia: Similarly to Arizona, many traditional conservatives are turning away from Trump. While Brian Kemp was able to win by a good margin, he's a decently popular incumbent who ran against a candidate who wasn't that strong (Stacey Abrams), survived a blue wave in 2018, and isn't a Trumpian Republican. I do think Biden will have some issues with minority voters, though that won't be enough for Trump to make up for Biden's huge gains in the suburbs and urban areas. Georgia trended left in 2020 even faster than Arizona (R+5.13 to D+0.23; R+7.24 to R+4.22 with NPV adjustment). Trump can definitely win here, but I can't see this being Trump's easiest state to flip.
    • Predicted Margin: D+0.5-1.5
  • Pennsylvania: The opposite of Georgia, Pennsylvania is one swing state that I see as rather overrated for Biden. Given that he barely got it over 1%, and that it trended to the right of the nation (R+0.72 to D+1.17; R+1.37 to R+3.28 with adjustments), and Trump's base of support is generally stronger in the Rust Belt than in the Sun Belt (which is part of why I'm skeptical of current polling that says the opposite), I don't think Biden will improve here overall. That said, Biden does have room to grow in the suburbs in southeastern Pennsylvania, and I think that should be enough to help him narrowly win the state and counteract Trump's growth in rural areas.
    • Predicted Margin: D+0.5-1
  • Nevada: In 2016 and 2020, Clinton and Biden both won Nevada by around 2.4% (meaning it trended right relative to the nation - D+0.33 to R+2.06). This state is kind of hard for me to decide. While it has arguably been moving to the right, partially due to Clarke County, Nevada polls underestimated Democrats in the Senate race for 2022, and it is a rather pro-choice state. Even Joe Lombardo, the GOP governor, signed pro-choice legislation. Plus, Catherine Cortez Masto's opponent was Adam Laxalt, a Trumpian candidate who supported the election fraud claims. This could indicate that, like Arizona, Trump would be in trouble. However, Masto barely won the Senate election. While Biden could do better than anticipated, I see this race as being one of the closest for 2024, albeit narrowly favoring Biden at the moment.
    • Predicted Margin: D+0-1
The states I'm the most shaky on are Wisconsin and Nevada. While I have an opinion on which candidate they tilt towards, it was very hard to decide whether I should change them from my May prediction, especially with the recent conviction.
Should Trump receive jail time for this case, I imagine that my prediction could change substantially among the seven battlegrounds (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin). For now, though, this is what I expect - Biden improves over the next several months and outperforms polling expectations somewhat, having the same incumbency boost that Bush, Obama, and Trump all got (though to a lesser extent than those three, as Trump was the previous incumbent).

2024.06.02 06:21 Krispy_Kolonel CMV: College football is a shell of what it used to be

Iā€™m not sure who on here cares to answer, Iā€™m just looking for a reason to care about this sport again. I look around at college football today and Iā€™m just utterly shocked at what it is. Iā€™m really not that old and I didnā€™t get into watching college football until I was in high school (only about 10 years ago), but even in that time frame, there has been so much change that it almost feels like itā€™s not worth it anymore.
  1. Conference realignment. For anyone unaware, Texas and Oklahoma left the Big 12 for the SEC, most likely for larger revenue streams and ā€œmore guaranteed post season accessā€. That meant the Big 10 had to grab Oregon Washington UCLA and USC and Cal and Stanford are now playing in the Atlantic Coast Conference with new arrival Southern Methodist (who are in Dallas), effectively killing a conference that has been around for almost a century.
I want to watch rivalry games that matter. I want to see the passion the fans have when Oklahoma faces Oklahoma State or Oregon and Oregon State face off. I want the regular season to actually mean something, give teams and alumni and fans regional bragging rights over their conference mates. Century old rivalries have been splintered without a second thought. The Miami Hurricanes of Florida are going to Berkeley CA for an IN CONFERENCE match up. USC in downtown Los Angeles are hosting Rutgers, whoā€™s campus is 30 minutes from Times Square, in an IN CONFERENCE match up. Itā€™s ridiculous, itā€™s enraging, but itā€™s not at all entertaining. The pageantry and tradition that the game is known for has been watered down and made Disney safe at the cost of losing part of the identity of the sport.
  1. Everything is becoming about the post season. Iā€™m not a huge fan of Josh Pate, but he has a really good view on this. Some programs just arenā€™t meant to be national championship contenders and are instead just supposed to focus on the regular season games. Only the top of the top, the best of the best should get to play for a title, and while I acknowledge that there are teams that got screwed out of contention in the past, how is this new post season going to be any better? Coaches will start benching players during the end of the season when they know they have a playoff spot secured just to guarantee longer rest before the playoffs.
  2. The excess in commercials and marketing has my head spinning. The head of the SEC stated at the spring meetings that teams may need to start looking into on field branding or jersey patches. They are actively turning the game into a walking advertisement. Increased ads turning games are turning them into 4 hour slog fests, and while I would love to watch my team on tv and support, I almost canā€™t justify that time anymore.
  3. This isnā€™t about the students anymore. Iā€™m not sure that it ever was, but it was nice when everyone was at least still trying to pretend. There are guys that are making more money right now as college athletes than they will at the highest level in the NFL. Iā€™m glad the players are getting paid, the fact they werenā€™t before was highly exploitative. But now it feels like the best are going to get better and everyone else just has to be ok with them being left behind. The sports betting scene has death threats being sent to athletes on a weekly basis during the season.
Again, Iā€™m looking for reasons to watch again. Iā€™m trying to find the fun in the game and experience again and I just havenā€™t been able to find it myself

2024.06.02 04:32 DinnerNo2341 What is the appeal of North Texas to Aussies?

I live in Dallas and discovered that there is an Aussie and New Zealand society of North Texas. Thereā€™s a large facebook group called Aussies in Texas which I learnt from a cashier I had today from New Zealand and theyā€™ll be filming a series about Aussies who move to the U.S. Recently, a lady from Brisbane reached out to me to help her move to a suburb of Dallas and Iā€™m wondering what are the drivers moving a number of Aussies here. I can understand if something work related transfers you or if youā€™re moving to LA for the things itā€™s known for.
Otherwise, I would like to be informed of the factors that bring Aussies to the U.S. in general when Australia has great healthcare, is safe, etc. What do you guys think?

2024.06.02 04:15 Select_Economy_9836 Bishop creating a reporting system for the young men to read their BoM

This happened while I was a Junior-Senior in HS, living in the North Dallas area. I was active and involved in the church at this point, went to a family ward with my parents. We were in Texas, but our stake was almost 100% BYU grads/Utah Transplants, so a lot of TBMā€™s and even more LDS-Utah culture.
Back in HS (2017-18ish), President Nelson gave a talk about the blessings that come from daily prayescripture study. So my Bishop, in order to keep all of us 16-18 year olds on the straight and narrow, decided that we would start each Sunday School lesson by going around the room and publicly reporting how many days during the previous week that we read our BoM and prayed. Which in a room of 14 young men + bishop + counselors, made for an incredibly awkward way to shame people into reading their scripture.
As this went on, things started to get added into our ā€˜reportsā€™. So, instead of just prayer and scripture study, we were also reporting on seminary attendance, days at work, mission prep, Wednesday Night activities, temple trips, family history, etc. Most of the guys in the room reported perfect numbers every week, although I am pretty sure we were all lying through our teeth.
It took about 1 year before I finally put my foot down and said that I would no longer he ā€˜reportingā€™ (Because it was no bodyā€™s business how many times I read my scriptures during my week). From then, every Sunday was a power struggle between Bishop and I, to see if I would report. Eventually the stake reorganized and we were no longer in that ward any more. I have since left the church, but I feel like this is a great lived example of how the church culture works.
  1. The church culture weaponizes shame to ensure compliance
  2. No one will ever be the perfect Mormon, because the goal post is always moving
  3. Members are conditioned to love rules so much that they make up their own, and enforce them
  4. Church culture has it instilled that Godā€™s love is transactional, and must be earned through checking boxes
Would love to hear if anyone has had similar experiences

Built numerous applications and websites for local companies and for my job at Knowt that required Django, Flask, CSS/HTML/JS, Python, Node.JS, Java, and React
Black Belt in TaeKwonDo
Essays were outstanding, really connected my passion of Minesweeper and programming with my lifelong goals and passions that could be achieved with my Computer Science degree. Supplements were also very well, and I mentioned research and further passion, so I would say 9/10
CEO of Storehouse (Where I got the Hasley Award): 10/10, She was an amazing mentor and leader for me, and we really bonded well during my 5 years of volunteering there
Research Mentor and Professor at UTD: 9/10, he was also very amazing, and as a lead professor of instruction, he really addressed my thoughts and encouraged me to expand
IB History Teacher: 10/10, he was one of the best teachers I could have asked for in high school. The way he taught the class allowed me to grow and develop more than in any other class before.
Software Development Manager and Mentor at Accenture: 10/10, this was the best ever intern experience I had, and without him, I wouldn't even be here
AP CSA Teacher: 9/10, also an amazing teacher just like my IB History Teacher
Counselor: 9/10, one of the best people I met at school
Thinking of applying to:
Safety: UT Dallas, Texas A&M
Target: UT Austin
Reach: UWash, UC System (Berkeley, Los Angeles, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Irvine and Davis), UMD, Stanford, CMU, UIUC, UNC

2024.06.02 02:40 ThatEvilBiker 27 year old student seeking College Pathway advice for Neuroengineering!

Hello everyone!
I am a 27 year old Texas community college student completing the first two years of college before applying for University. Despite doing really well in my Computer Science classes, my overwhelming interest in Engineering and Neuroscience/Neuroengineering took over me like a storm. I can't stop it!
My interests:
I have a huge passion for Neuroscience/Neuroengineering, Engineering, all things Technology, and the Medical field. I am either building computers, self-studying Neuroscience, watching videos on Physics, playing way too much Cyberpunk, rewatching fifth element for the 10,000th time, or obsessing over Neuralink to the point where I'm spending more hours immersing myself into learning about BCI's, advanced prosthetics, and countless hours of Neuroscience YouTube lectures than I am socializing with other human beings (Maybe I didn't score a date this weekend, but I learned about Neuroplasticity at 3am!).
This Summer, I am shadowing at a Hanger Clinic under a prosthetist (who was actually MY prosthetist, as my left leg is literally missing/electronic from a motorcycle accident back in 2022) and working a part-time job in Cyber Security while catching up on Math with summer classes (Starting from College Algebra). Not bad gigs to score as a freshman! Hopefully they will help to look good on my University application for Engineering.
I am heavily interested in Neuroscience/Neuroengineering research and want to work in a lab conducting research around BCI's, Prosthetics, and related. I would absolutely love to be very well rounded in Engineering and Neuroscience/medical, as these are my biggest interests and to be honest, I don't want to only pick one. If I had to, I could, but I'd be disappointed as honestly as I WANT to study both. Example; I'm equally interested in learning Chemistry as I am circuits. I'm either building computers in my room or watching youtube college lectures on the brain. Maybe I am unrealistic in my expectations, but I want strong foundations of both Neuro/medical and Engineering.
Pathways:
I have spent many hours trying to find pathways, and the two I'm considering are:
* BS Biomedical Engineering > MS Neuroscience
* BS Electrical Engineering(with BME minor) > MS Neuroscience
The university I am interested in attending is UT Dallas, and they have a Neuroengineering research department at the school ass well as Neuroengineering focus/classes for it's Biomedical Engineering undergrad students, which is a big plus if I choose that as my undergrad. On the other hand, half the answers I've receive from people said to go general Engineering like Electrical because it has more engineering depth and the field requires more than Biomedical Engineering can provide.
Does this matter if I'm going for a master's either way?
Any advice for me is greatly appreciated. I could not care about the money, I just love Tech and Neuroscience, want to be surrounded by smart people who i can learn from, and contribute in research to making an impact in the field. I really want Biomedical Engineering, but I want opinions from those in the field so I can end up where I dream to.
Thank you!

What type of spider?
With the legs itā€™s about the size of a quarter. Created a home on my back portch and wondering if we can live harmoniously in north Texas, Dallas/Ft Worth area.
I found a zebra jumper on google but this one is quite a bit bigger than the size of a zebra spider it seems

2024.06.01 23:20 joeyoungblood Other Ralph Barbosa's in DFW?

Ralph Barbosa skyrocketed through the local comedy scene and onto the national stage going from winning "Funniest Comic in Texas" in 2019 to releasing a Netflix special late last year. That's one heck of a climb in a 4-year period. Raised in Mesquite and having claims to Oak Cliff, Ralph is clearly a Dallas local but I would assume most of us never heard of him until he hit Netflix, Jimmy Fallon, and Comedy Central.
Who are the other local comedians / comic artists / etc... that we should be going to see and supporting now before they hit the big time?

2024.06.01 22:26 Character_Cellist_62 Got screwed hard thanks to DFW airport cancellations. Need help figuring out how to salvage my trip.

My best friend's wedding is in Sarasota, FL on Monday. I had saved up and planned out everything months in advance and had all my ducks lined up and everything squared away. I was supposed to fly out there this morning. Right before I left for the airport, I was informed via text that my flight was cancelled. I got the rebook text, but when I tried to select the next available flight, got told this was no longer an option and now I have to take a really inconvenient flight to get there before the wedding.
What are my options here? I have never traveled alone by plane before so I am not used to dealing with these types of situations.
Update:
I think I just found a flight through SW that costs almost the same as my current flight, is direct to the destination, and arrives at an actual reasonable time. However AA is still giving the run around about cancellation and refunds.
UPDATE ON THE UPDATE:
I think I might have just been screwed out of the trip entirely. FML. Thanks for the help regardless
Triple and final update:
  1. I am not from Dallas. I am much further west than Texas. If I were to get in a car and start driving to Florida now I would not make it to the wedding.
  2. It turns out the ticket that was quoted to me from SW was wrong because the dates weren't rigtht After discussing stuff with my friend who getting married and a couple other people I decided just to cancel.
And now the problem became:
  1. I could not get anyone on the phone with American Airlines. I had them do the automatic callback thing and then when I would get the call it would drop immediately. Never got a second callback and everytime I try calling I then have to rejoin the queue which is always multiple hours long and then the same thing happens.
  2. The people I talked to (not from AA) told me that I was entitled to a refund because of new rules by the DoT. But now, after cancelling and putting in a refund request, I'm coming on here and seeing that because it was weather related I'm just not screwed out of all that money.
I know this is reddit, and I'm going to be berated and told that I should done this or that. But fuck man I had spent months trying to get all my ducks lined up and then have everything just thrown in the air at the last minute with the airline and them not giving me any shred of information on what I was entitled to besides a reschedule that clearly wasn't going to work. I am a broke grad student. I barely had enough to make this trip to beigin with. But whatever, I just needed to vent. Thanks you to the people who did try to help.

2024.06.01 21:51 slmask US:Houston to Nebraska Graduation road trip halfway done!

US:Houston to Nebraska Graduation road trip halfway done!
(Warning long write up) So I had the wild idea to drive to my school to walk for my Masters of Science degree. I wanted to test how or if was possible to drive from Texas to Nebraska in the Etron. I used ABRP to cross refernce the charging stops against the Mmi which is what you see in one of the pictures.
We detoured to drop my son off with my mom and continued to Dallas which unfortunately was under severe thunderstorm and flooding. It took us roughly 2 hours just to get out of Dallas due to the flooding and it was the only time I switched from efficiency to all road for extra clearance. Things cleared up once I stopped to charge in Denton which on real time consumption was 2.8mi/kwh but short term rounded up to 3mi/kwh.
We hammered on until Oklahoma city were we spent the night then picked up again the next morning heading straight to Bellevue Nebraska to pick up my cap-n-gown. I will say some the roads were brutal in efficiency mode as the they were so rough but there were also lower speed limits of 65mph on roads so I could slow down and recoup some range.
Also through this stint, I came across some charging frustrations. An EA150 station in Blackwell only provided 2kwh before throwing an error. Luckily I i had enough range to make to Witchita to charge up. Oddly enough I ran into more charging issues, the first unit crashed as soon as I plugged in. The following 150 had the same charge for a few kwh before erroring out. I finally switched to a 350 and got enough range to make it to Bellevue Nebraska then to Ohama.
This morning I tried to be proactive and AC charge to get a nice range buffer while in town. One A/c street Charge point couldn't reach to port and all the rest of the Ac chargers are in parking garages. So I headed for another DCFC. I stopped at a 150kwh shell and got the same charging errors I did the day before. Nervous I headed to an EA station tried a 150 there same issue. I then moved to the only 350 available and Bam charged like a boss all the way to 90%.
Afyer the ceremony this morning we came back to the hotel in Ohama and leaving if parked until we leave in the morning. I'm sitting at 76% with 168 miles of range on the GOM. That should get us close to Kansas city with only a few stops in between. From there it's straight back to Houston.
So far I'm about 960 miles in traveling consumption is at 2.7mi/kwh, short term is 3 mi/kwh. Current cost on charging (including failures) is $162.63. I think that is close or better than what a base ice Q8 would cost so far.

2024.06.01 21:27 jasonkane4321 Solar powered Nissan Leaf for sale

$9000. Located in Dallas. [jasonkane4321@yahoo.com](mailto:jasonkane4321@yahoo.com)
Hi Im selling my 2011 Nissan Leaf with solar powered supplemental battery system. Would be good for an off grid situation, because it can be charged entirely off its own solar panels. The car has 5 total solar panels that combined total 600watts. The power goes to a big battery and inverter system in the trunk, that allows you to charge the car off the 7064 watt hour 12v batteries in the trunk. The details are listed here, but there is also a YouTube channel dedicated to the build of this car, where you can find much more info. The channel is (Innovative sustainable solutions) https://www.youtube.com/@InnovativeSustainableSolutions
Car info 2011 Nissan Leaf Nissan Leaf with 66347 miles Replaced main EV battery with a used one with 10 bars of life left Clean blue Texas title
Solar setup info The solar panels power a battery and inverter system in the trunk. The roof panels fold out revealing two more panels underneath. 4 roof Renogy 12v panels ran in parallel (175w, 160w, 100w, 100w). The one panel on the hood is a 65w.It has four 12 volt 1766 watt hour lithium phosphate batteries ran in parallelThe batteries are charged with a Renogy solar charge controller. The batteries are connected in parallel and connected to a 12v 4000w pure sine wave inverter. You can then charge the carā€™s main EV battery pack by plugging the cars charging cable, into the inverter. It car can be charged while the solar panels are charging the batteries, but it can NOT charge while driving. You can also charge the batteries in the trunk from a wall outlet, using an extension cord if you want.A small portable air conditioner is in trunk to keep batteries cool in the summer. It exhausts heat your rear door window. The air-conditioner is very low wattage and runs off the trunk batteries I am not the builder of this setup and the one who made the YouTube channel. I am the second owner since he built it. I can give you the builders contact, if you have any questions after buying it.
Im asking $9000 for it.

I plan to visit family in Texas from BC, Canada and want to bring Bangladeshi limes for them. They love it and itā€™s not sold anywhere in Dallas. I will purchase them from a store in BC and can carry the receipt, however I am not sure if they were grown in Canada. Volume shouldnā€™t be an issue, I likely will bring 5-6, just enough for personal consumption. Does US customs law allow to bring in lime purchased in Canada for personal consumption?

šŸšØJFK ASSASSINATION - ZIONIST CONNECTION
The JFK assassination was the tragic killing of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas. The event shook the nation and is remembered as one of the darkest moments in American history.
Many of you know the conspiracies surrounding the assassination, but here we are going to focus on Mossad and Zionist connections.
  • JFK & Israeli Nukes -
One of the larger controversies about JFK and his assassination were the events leading up to his death.
Just prior to his assassination Kennedy would go back and forth with Israel on their nuclear capabilities, with the then prime minister of Israel, stating that without nuclear weapons, Israel would cease to exist.
After continuous requests for neutral scientists to evaluate the reactors on site, Israel would create fake control rooms that were intended to look like an energy reactor controls, rather than a weapons grade plutonium isotope manufacturing plant.
Finally the CIA would approve the request with a stipulation that the reactor itself wasn't to be inspected but rather the false control rooms only.
Kennedy shortly after this event was quoted as saying:
"Those sons of bitches lie to me constantly about their nuclear capability" - John F. Kennedy
Kennedy's reluctance to provide nuclear arms to Israel may just have cost him his life.
  • Zionist Member Involvement -
The Jewish community and sponsor "The Dallas Citizens Council", directed by Julius Schepps, who was a member of the ADL's (Anti-Defamation League) "B'nai B'rith" community, then invites JFK to Dallas, TX.
Many of you have likely seen the JFK footage already, filmed by ADL "B'nai B'rith" member, Abraham Zapruder, famous for the Zapruder film. One point of controversy is the placement of Zapruder, being stationed in the perfect location to get the closest filming shot possible of the assassination, without even a flinch or movement as gun shots rang out.
Zapruder was a textile manufacturer headquartered in the Dallas Textile building which was the building where the first two gun shots were supposedly fired from that missed their mark according to ballistics determined by independent investigations after that fateful day.
The building the shots were fired from was owned by a man named David Weisblat, who also happened to be one of the largest financiers at the time of the ADL, and Douglas Jaffe, who was a very significant donor to Lyndon B Johnson, who would be the man to take over the presidency after JFK was killed.
The Chairman of the Dallas Citizen's Council, Sam Bloom would coordinate the transfer of Lee Harvey Oswald to the Dallas county jail. During this transfer Oswald would be shot by a man who goes by the name "Jack Ruby." Interestingly enough however, Jack Ruby's real name was Jacob Leon Rubinstein.
Almost immediately after the assassination, the Israeli nuclear reactor would go critical, creating the conditions for the weapons grade plutonium isotope, with Israel obtaining nuclear weapons nearly one year later with the approval of the replacement president Lyndon B. Johnson.
It is thought that the uranium for the enrichment process came from a plant in Pennsylvania where almost 200 pounds of weapons-grade uranium went "missing."
  • Other Notable Points -
Another odd occurrence during this day would be the "Umbrella Man" who most either consider to have been a Mossad or CIA agent. This man, during a warm clear day in Dallas, TX was wearing a full black suit and hat with an umbrella over his head protecting his identity at a distance. When the shots rang out, this man would seemingly remain unaffected.
The Warren Commission, the commission set up to investigate the killing was created by none other than Lyndon B. Johnson himself, and had been given limited information as the CIA was considered complicit in a cover-up by withholding important information during the investigation.
  • My Opinion -
I fully believe that the CIA, LBJ, and Mossad, in a combined effort, ordered and executed the assassination of a sitting president. With the notable individuals involved on that day, and all of the money involved, the data would indicate the involvement of Mossad as a main perpetrator that day. From the building the initial shots were likely fired from, the controversial film, and the council who invited him, they all have one key point in common.
If you have any additional information to share, please comment below and as always, don't take my word for any of this, feel free to fact check and research each point involved in this write-up and come to your own conclusion.

Corbett Report on Dancing Israelis: https://archive.is/KI8ee
In 2001, Lt-Gen. Ahmad regularly visited the United States where he consulted with The Pentagon and CIA officials in the Bush administration in the weeks before and after terrorist attacks took place in New York on 11 September 2001.[23] In fact, he was with U.S. Republican Congressman Porter Goss and U.S. Democratic Senator Bob Graham in Washington, D.C., discussing Osama bin Laden over breakfast, when the attacks of September 11, 2001 took place in New York, United States.[24][25]
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmud_Ahmed
"The Pakistan Connection"
Ahmed, the paymaster for the hijackers, was actually in Washington on 9/11, and had a series of pre-9/11 top-level meetings in the White House, the Pentagon, the national security council, and with George Tenet, then head of the CIA, and Marc Grossman, the under-secretary of state for political affairs. When Ahmed was exposed by the Wall Street Journal as having sent the money to the hijackers, he was forced to "retire" by President Pervez Musharraf. Why hasn't the US demanded that he be questioned and tried in court?

On the 12th Sep 2019, the main database of samples and viral sequences of the Wuhan Institute of Virology went offline. Eventually every single of the 16 virus databases managed by the WIV was taken offline.
https://archive.is/i79eW
Here's former CDC director Robert Redfield under oath before the Congress on Wuhan Lab September 2019 events:
https://www.youtube.com/live/aXXWRaM-sWQ?feature=share
I will say if you go back and look, it's declassified now, and I'm sure you all have your classified briefings, but the declassified information now:
In September of 2019, three things happened in that lab, one is they deleted the sequences, that was highly irregular, researchers don't usually like to do that
Second thing they did was they changed the command and control of the lab from the civilian control to the military control. Highly unusual, and I've been involved in dual use labs when I was in the military.
And the third thing they did which I think is really telling is they let a contractor redo the ventilation system in that laboratory. So I think clearly there was strong evidence that there was a significant event that happened in that laboratory in September. It's now been declassified, you can read it. I'm sure there's more classified information around it.
Scientist Richard Ebright
The relevance of this is that SARS Cov-2, the pandemic virus, is the only virus in its entire genus of SARS-related coronaviruses that contains a fully functional cleavage site at the S1, S2 junction. And here is a proposal from the beginning of 2018 [from Fauci/Gates-funded EcoHealth Alliance] proposing explicitly to engineer that sequence at that position in chimeric lab- generated coronaviruses.
Eminent Virologist David Baltimore of CalTech
When I first saw the furin cleavage site in the viral sequence, with its arginine codons, I said to my wife it was the smoking gun for the origin of the virus. These features make a powerful challenge to the idea of a natural origin for SARS2.
Former CDC Director Robert Redfield:
I was concerned because of the presence of the furin cleavage site that we've talked about and I think it's important to understand what that cleavage site does. That cleavage site totally changes the orientation of the binding domain of COVID, so where before it could not see the ACE2 receptor which is the human receptor, it totally changes the orientation now so it has high affinity for human receptors. So that furin cleavage site bothered me, it didn't seem like it belonged there.
And then if you look at the sequences they use in those 12 nucleotides for arginine, where the arginine sequence nucleotide triplet were coded for humans. So why did it have the arginine coding for humans and not bat? It was very disconcerting to me. It looked like this virus was engineered.
It's not scientifically plausible that this virus went from a bat to humans and became one of the most infectious viruses that we have for humans.
Scientist Valentin Bruttel:
I tried to raise awareness to this for a year now. WIV use BsaI and BsmBI/Esp3I sites before to make synthetic WIV1 variants. And exactly those sites appear in a "silently introduced, perfect for synthetic assembly" pattern in SARS2, but non of its nat. relatives.
seriously, what is the chance that exactly those type IIs restriction appear or disappear through random evolution in a Banal-20-52 like virus? 5-6 precise mutations in 30000bp? about 1 in 1020! SARS2 is clearly synthetic!
Type Ils restriction sites prove a synthetic origin
Synthetic RNA viruses are assembled at the DNA level and later transcribed. 30,000 nucleotides cannot be synthesized in one go. These viruses are therefore assembled from smaller, 2- 8,000 nucleotide long pieces. Specific DNA restriction sites are often added to later reassemble the individual building blocks in the correct order. It is also technically possible to hide these interfaces (No See'em), but this was not done in the WIV.
In a 2017 paper, two very specific, particularly suitable type Ils restriction enzymes were used at the WIV. These have the advantage that they can produce different DNA overhangs (sticky ends), which are crucial for a correct assembly of the complete genome: Bsal and BsmBI.
SARS2 shows a Bsal and BsmBI restriction site pattern which is ideal for assembling synthetic viruses and to later replace the spike protein or furin cleavage site.
Bsal and BsmBI restriction sites also exist in closely related viruses (Banal20-52, RaTG13), but these are distributed in such a way that an artificial virus could never be generated using the methods established at WIV 2018/19.
The probability that the required 5 synonymous mutations, which enable a synthetic assembly of SARS2, arose purely by chance is less than 1 in 1020 or about as likely as winning the lottery jackpot 3 times in a row.

Big Bend is a sacred place.
Big Bend can feel like a place out of a storybook. At times I even feel pity for the majority of Texans who havenā€™t had the opportunity to make the journey, but the parkā€™s hidden nature is part of what makes it so special. Over my five years in Dallas, I made the nine-hour drive to Big Bend about a dozen times, and I loved bringing friends who had never seen the park before. It felt like opening the doors to Narnia after months on end in North Texas.
The park has never disappointed, and I've brought at least a couple new friends every time. The drive itself is something Iā€™ll never take for granted. It feels like a journey up a Richter scale driving from the flatlands, through forgotten towns. Entering Terlingua and Alpine, and being greeted by some of the darkest skies in the world. Almost like arriving at space camp.
Iā€™d like to start posting some stories here because there was never a dull moment. For now, I just want to express my gratitude and excitement at the thought of making that drive again. For all of you who have been fortunate enough to experience the park, donā€™t stop. Open your friends and families eyes to the beauty of Texas and be grateful that it remains a place of stillness and serenity.
