It's like they really don't get how much they are despised for crap like this.
I'll be happy when they're taken to task financially, legally, and morally for this kind of self-indulgent, manipulative, robber baron bullshit.

This is one of the best summations of why transit in the United States has low uptake aside from very, very specific places.
Most of us, our time is most valuable, and the opportunity costs of transit outweigh what goes into having a car.
My commute, ten minutes each way. By transit, non-existent.

I am super-pro-public transit, and use it way more than the average American, but I live near a light rail station with very, very stable and predictable scheduling, and even then I would not use it for many things I use a car for because the cost of transit is time.
i wonder how much of Americans' views on driving vs. transit would change if they had to pay for gas/insurance/etc every time they turned on the engine
"i'm not paying $5 to take the train to work twice a day when i can just drive" is a genuine opinion held by so many people

Nothing like being too grifty to fail.
What pisses me off is that the AI bubble WILL fucking pop and drag the economy down with it and the industry will inevitably get bailed out, which is honestly such a great long con.
Here's why concerns about an AI bubble are bigger than ever
Tech companies are pouring billions into AI chips and data centers. Increasingly, they are relying on debt and risky tactics. Financial analysts are worried there's a bubble that will soon pop.

it is absolutely the tech companies fault that people now assume they’re doing something evil and sneaky even when they actually aren’t (regarding the latest Google kerfuffle)

Contrary to that, there's some pretty new colors of Raptors on their site.
I don't need another, but never hurts to see if they brought back the purple ones.

Damnit. Just give up on the bit driver, give me a decent sized Phillips instead. It's already got two built-in flatheads.
Either that, or upgrade the tension spring to something that won't start deflecting away from the bit.
