A GSA spokesperson told TechCrunch that Musk was not directly involved in negotiating the agreement.

It is guaranteed Musk was involved in negotiating the agreement. Nothing gets done at the company without his approval.

This is just another example of the ongoing grift. Taxpayers are once again footing the bill so the boys club can have their meetings.

What are they good for? Who needs 'em?

More woke scaremongering from the left. /s

This sounds more like you're an unorganized, forgetful person than an issue with cars.

The bean counters have determined its cheaper to use AI and hire a janitor compared a team of programmers.

That would be an improvement for Microsoft.

If there's actually a genocide going on, maybe it's Hamas' fault for hiding in amongst the civilian population, eh?

Perhaps Israel shouldn't be murdering civilians waving white flags in a designated "safe" zone.

But please, keep making excuses for the ongoing genocide.

That California was more diligent in tracking covid deaths while Florida deliberately went out of its way to hide its numbers.

But I guess these days, with Dear Leader Trump, pretending Reality is not real is all the rage in certain (fascist) circles.

These are the same people who whined about Netflix's Alexander: The Making of a God devoting so much time, effort, and money to Alexander burying his "friend".

No different than that anti-vaxxer Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. who said in April he'd have an answer for what causes autism by September.

It's not belittling. It's asking a question whose answer might have been known, but hearing it from the horse's mouth removes all doubt.

...a new study has determined that water is wet.

Such a study would be groundbreaking and a shock to the scientific community since water makes other things wet. Water itself is not wet.

You have 20+ million criminals in your country from nations all over the world,

No, we don't. What we do have is the vast majority of crimes, of all types, are committed by U.S. citizens born in this country. Such as this one which was recorded, but which Trump said isn't a big deal and ordered the case closed.

But please, continue with your ranting. It gives us something to laugh at.

Once you threaten a public official, as happened in this case, the Secret Service is involved. The SS is also involved in protecting foreign dignitaries when they come to this country.

Thus, with the UN session going on, they were doing what they should. They were probably (most definitely) working with the FBI and DHS, possibly even NSA, on this.

H-2B visas allow companies to bring in foreign workers for non-agricultural purposes, such as waiters/waitresses, hotel desk clerks, housekeeping staff, servers, cooks, etc.

Let's impose a $100,000 fee for those visas as well so Americans can get those jobs.

Oh right. These are the visas Trump uses to avoid hiring Amerians at his failing golf clubs and hotels. Just like he knowingly hired illegals at his failing golf club.

If you were dumb enough to buy one of these "smart" refrigerators, you get what you deserve. There is absolutely no reason to have a "smart" refrigerator. It's a refrigerator. It should only do two things: keep the stuff in the fridge cool and the stuff in the freezer frozen.

Anything else is a waste of money.

But they have no problem paying $50 to have a Big Mac delivered to them.

Perhaps a rethinking is in order.

You missed the best part and directly related to this story. Texas got rid of the mandate that construction companies provide breaks for their workers in high heat.

This doesn't mean the company can't give their workers breaks, just that it is no longer mandated. How many do you think no longer give these breaks?
