Same. Popping on a VPN using the USA worked (I didn't try anything else).

Also, I have the Google One AI Pro 5TB subscription and all I've used it for this week is asking some simple questions like looking up TV shows I forgot, helping me find a non-junk USBC cable and it checks my emails once a day and let's me know if anything important looking arrived, just in case I missed it. Just now I asked it to set a reminder and apparently I've maxed out my usage for this period and need to wait until 7pm. Crazy. I must have far higher usage from Gemini doing a few searches on Google with the AI overview, yet I'm limited in the part I actually pay for?!?

This reads as AI generated. Also Pangram thinks it’s 100% AI generated: https://www.pangram.com/history/5e8482d0-203e-435c-a89e-509e...

Not going to read it anyway, I see too many AI flags that I can safely assume this is garbage written by a robot

If I leave my wrench on the job and it charges me $800 for the work it did overnight, but it did nothing billable, I'd also blame the damn wrench.
