Everyone knows that lobsters are the cockroaches of the sea, right? They are buggy (pun intended), hard to kill, and some people like to eat them. But I argue that if you put enough butter on something, of course it's going to taste okay.

Then there's the Red Lobster restaurant. Just like lobster on a plate, it's dressed up to make people think it's fancy. But they couldn't keep the illusion going forever, and in the end it's just another sub-par chain restaurant that's gone bankrupt. Heck, people didn't even go for the lobster. You went for that all you can eat shrimp, which is just a tinier, shittier lobster.

Okay, fine, the cheddar biscuits are fire, but that doesn't fit with the metaphor I'm working on here.

The point is, lobsters are crap. And you know what else is crap? OpenClaw, the appropriately lobster themed AI agent that everyone firmed up over, that they are harder than the shell on a lobster.

Now I'm not one to normally yuck anyone's yum, but thing is just a bad idea all around. This dumpster fire has been burning so hot since the get-go, you could boil all these metaphorical lobsters and cure world hunger. Heck, this dumpster fire is burning so hot, you could use it for steam turbines to power all the AI data centers required to run the agent in the first place.

What some more colorful descriptions about how bad OpenClaw is, as well some more substantial arguments that go beyond "lobsters are bad"? Well then join us for STL2600 as Bob and I explain why this is just a frighteningly terrible thing to run on your computer.

As usual, doors at 6:00 and talk 7:00. We'll do our best to broadcast it virtually as always. We’ll stream as per usual from:
