EPA and revitalize auto industry is obviously a conflict of interest.

I'm pretty sure they just charge the local currency equivalent in BTC at the time of purchase.

Do you have a source for that? I've seen local businesses like pizza shops and such accept btc.

Edit: the majority of crypto transactions are likely between exchanges, miners, and exchange customers. An example is the Blackrock BTC ETF buys and sells btc off an exchange in realtime in relation to the ETF purchases. I'm not saying no crime happens on the btc network but to claim 100% of transactions are crime based is just false.

Isn't USD also linked to many of those? Gangs launder physical cash through businesses, ransomware can ask for credit cards or bank accounts, terrorists may take USD as it can be spent nearly anywhere.

Haptic feedback like knob clicks or button presses are much easier to use without taking eyes off the road as often.

Its about long term effort investment. The game really gets fun as you start making lots of profits, upgrading tools, and automating the farm, although it can be tiring. There is also probably over 1000 ways to play. Some focus on mining, some more on social, some rarely leave the farm.

I can usually play it for about and in game year then have to put it down. Then I have a hard time picking it back up cause im worried ill mess up my planting plans even though my character is already fairly rich.

Sounds like a broken system where workers are being exploited. The operating costs of everything should be pirced into the food. Customer's shouldn't be expected to subsidize wages.

I could get the best service I've ever had, if the food tastes bad, makes me sick, or is undercooked I won't be returning.

I could have rude service, have to send my order back for being wrong, and maybe even wait a while, if that food is delicious I'll be coming back.

It takes a whole team to run a restaurant but if the food sucks or is unsafe no amount of good service will make up for that.

In this case wouldn't the cooks time and skills be more important? Almost anyone can carry a plate but it takes a more diverse set of skills to cook various meals in timely manner while trying to prepare another 10 orders as well.

Not to say the server isn't important as well but tbh, I'd rather have shitty service and great tasting food than have amazing service and terrible food. Ideally great food and great service, that will defintely get me back.

The way his supporters talk is like this, if it is something they like, they claim Trump singlehandedly did that thing. If it is something they don't like, they claim the fucking government is holdng Trump back from his real goals.

Id have had 100k if i sold at 20 cents. And that doesnt even factor in the thousands of doge i gambled away on pokershibes, a dogecoin poker site.
