> "Within rural America, though, most people are not extremely far from stores. USDA data found that the median rural resident was only about 3–4 miles from the nearest supermarket and 90–95% lived within 10 miles"

First amendment doesn't mean anything goes...for example, protesting has a time, place, and manner restrictions, even though you would at first glance think any restriction on protesting would be illegal.

Then just skip the BS and make a 15% tip be a mandatory minimum. Its so strange that you can be seen as an asshole by not spending money optionally, despite it being a societal virtue to be smart with your money and not spend more than you need in any other context.

Highest I got was 26 in a row. AI seems to love generating "close up" images of a subject. Its like every image has to have an obvious subject (that was in the prompt), and it struggles to make scenes without a clear subject and more chaotic vibe. I notice this a lot with these "AI movies", every single camera shot has an obvious subject that makes them unbearable to watch, they can't just chill out and have a messy scene.

money is just an abstraction over value, it is not value itself. if AGI is achieved, the AI labs will just use AGI to produce what they need instead of trading for it, which would include full vertical integration on all products.

In my experience, poorer families tend to live in multigenerational housing at a much higher rate. So this doesnt seem to be true. Less affuluent usually means more sharing of resources, not less.
