The US has a pretty broad range of what counts as a “gas station” Some of them have on-site prepared food that is legitimately pretty good.

For any other administration I would agree with this. For these guys? They are absolutely stupid enough to really be using Grok for decisions like this.

Who is the lobby for this and why the hell aren’t they already on a list?

The time you spent whining about this could have been better spent.

Most people are capable of caring about more than one thing.

Its not theft when a corporation does it.

Sure, and once we have remedied the ten thousand OTHER problems caused by executive overreach and corruption in this admin we can get around to addressing the hard done to this poor little AI company.

I have an issue with telling fancy mushrooms from the cheap brown mushrooms that are coincidentally 1/5 of the price. Its a known problem and it should probably disqualify me from a job checking out produce. Oh well, I guess I’ll just do my best.

Some of us might see it as exceptionally shitty or at least exceptionally captured by corporate interests.

They won’t get more investor money if they aren’t building shit.

That office space is in cities that won’t let them steal all the water and power and then dump pollution into the water supply.

A lot of this is because they don’t need as many permits for “temporary” structures.

I get how it feels that way, buy Americans have a LONG way to go before they know anything like that sort of poverty.

They aren’t scared of shit. They aren’t even risking their own money on any of this shit.

Can’t wait to find out that this somehow cost us taxpayers like a hundred million dollars.

Which is the same thing as the GOODKINDSTICK that everyone says is really good, but only if you get the V3.65 from 2025, the new stuff is garbage.

They will have Chinese RAM by then, so yeah, its going to be the random made up Amazon/Temu Chinese brands.

It also can be pretty hard to find music you will actually like. Every streaming and sales service is more interested in promoting content based on who paid them off or based on what is cheap for them to stream. It seems like there are not a lot of resources geared specifically with connecting you to music that you are likely to enjoy.

I usually troll through new albums each month and just listen to a bunch of stuff until I find something I like.

Six bedrooms. One bathroom. And its outside.

Kitchen is in 150 square feet, in the basement, and has a pump for water.

Certainly, of course all the old stuff is good because that is the stuff that you already curated into your personal preferences. There was a LOT of shit from pretty much any era, its just that the younger version of you already pawed through all that shit. Listening to new music means having to paw through a lot of crap, which is always harder than just listening to stuff you already like.
