    The US can't manage domestic plans beyond a few months out, an American moon base will never happen unless Elon decides it's the new perfect location for his ethnonationalist feuda…

    I don't think "X The Everything App takes a long time for review" is a useful point of comparison, Elon Inc. isn't sending their best.

    Inference sounds cooler and more mystical. Any old company can host something, "running inference" requires 10x rock star engineers and a CEO that acts like a badass who wears a le…

    Have you used any of these? Most of them are awful and not useful at all. JustWatch is alright but is succumbing to enshittification.
