I recently found out Elon was potentially an undocumented worker while "interning" in Silicon Valley. He says he got his degree at UPenn in 1995 and was at Stanford for his Master's right after, but UPenn doesn't have him getting his degree until 1997, and Stanford has no record of him actually enrolling in the college in 95/96, even though he was accepted. If he was legitimately interning in Silicon Valley through UPenn, why not just say that?

Plus, there is footage of him and his brother Kimbal speaking in 2013 at the Milken Institute (I can't find the exact clip right now, unfortunately) where Kimbal admits word for word "We were illegal workers" while Elon hems and haws and says "It's a grey area" while the crowd laughs.

The hypocrisy is so maddening.

I saw a photo of a father crying over the body of his baby that died of hypothermia. That child didn't even make it to double digit months lived on this Earth. It was born and died in war.

How the fuck are people allowing this to go on anymore...

It really is a class war, not a culture war.

Same! Books, games, new skill/hobby, new exercise. I will always have a minimum of 3 of those and rotate between them. It's like an infinite dopamine hack.

Now THAT is some tea. But then again, rich people being greedy enough to fuck over their own children isn't that surprising.

Why post just the women? If we need a new face, Bernard Arnault is right there, and the women listed aren't even in the top 15 wealthiest...

I mean Japanese and Chinese also use the same script. But I wouldn't really say they're the same cultures...especially not to their face.

Some great points made by users in this thread, but my main question from reading this was, "What the hell is Gettr?"

[–] sigmaklimgrindset@sopuli.xyz 1 points 7 months ago

Oh, that makes a lot of sense. I signed up around the time there was a big spambot attack here, so I picked an instance with closed registration. That explains a lot, actually.

Again, I don't know. My instance seems to be fine with them, and I wouldn't say it's Nick Jr here. I also just see the same news/tech/whatever posts on Beehaw as the ones on .world or whatever, so I don't even know what the content difference would be.

But now I'm just even more curious about any potential mod/admin drama regarding these defederations, damn it.

[–] sigmaklimgrindset@sopuli.xyz 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

As is their right to? Like the whole point of Beehaw is to foster a positive environment. I've disagreed with many people there (including their admin, I'm pretty sure) without getting banned.
