[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 168 points 1 week ago (3 children)

No he had his face stuck to Trump ass and some it transferred to Zuck.

His hyu-man skin is melting.

[–] zib@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago

He's clearly trying to make himself seem more appealing to the orange man in DC.

Symptom of fascism

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

There's enough reason to shit on him without this. He just looks like a ginger who's spent too much time (15 minutes) in direct sunlight without slathering sunscreen on his face first.

“There are a bunch of things that I think are value-destroying for me to talk about, so I’m not going to talk about those…”

Well have you thought about not being a piece of shit 😂

[–] MeaanBeaan@lemmy.world 49 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Like, isn't that an admission that your business has no value?

[–] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

No not at all, but it is an admission that they know what they're doing is wrong and they just don't give a shit.

zuck the fuck is worth approx 229billion.

a 25mil fine is 0.01% of his net worth.

If your average yearly salary is 30,000, thats like paying a fine of 3 ~~00~~.

edit math hard thank you @MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works

300 would be 1% wouldn't it? It'd be like paying a fine of 3

[–] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 20 points 1 week ago

So he cares slightly more than when I go to the grocery store but forget my reusable bags

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

🤦‍♀️ yes

[–] copd@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

ZuckFuck doesn't make his net worth each year. So let's compare it against US citizen net worth. I have stats from 2022

Average American new worth is ~$1,050,000 Median American net worth is ~$192,000

I hate zuck as much as you but it's important to be accurate and fair as possible when comparing statistics.

So it's like a fine of $19 if using median and $105 if using average. Still peanuts for a fine

One way to avoid recurrent leaks is to foster a culture of trust and not be a ginormous dickwad.

[–] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 week ago

Sounds like lady shit

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 90 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Imagine being worth 229 billion, and you look like that.

This realities Bond villains are so pathetic looking.

Drugs and lack of sleep does that to you.

Drugs and sleep have no effect on cyborgs

If I’d had to bet whether this was The Onion before clicking this link, someone would be breaking my knees next week.

I had an uncle that had a problem with leaking. Ended up just having to wear a diaper everywhere.

After all, he said age of privacy is over (or something similar).

One cool thing about these leaks is: if you weren't saying batshit crazy stuff, no one would care.

Nobody cares.

But wait......the full quote was "Today I ate a sandwich......of babys!"

I'm a pacifist hippy tech worker, and I would gladly draw a paycheck from Raytheon long before I even consider applying to Facebook or Twitter.

Raytheon is putting "more value into the world" than these shitheads.

"Would you like your evil done in the traditional overt bombs-dropped-on-children fashion, or the new we'll-sell-your-entire-life-to-the-highest-bidder-while-feeding-you-non-stop-lies-to-establish-a-fascist-regime style, sir?"

This guy: Bomb some kids, at least it's a spectacle.

(Edit for clarification: I think both are bad, and one has a strong causal relationship with the other but I am not sure I would pick Raytheon personally. It's a bit too overtly evil for my tastes)

I hate Facebook and that they will ban people, without notice, unless they record a video selfie from multiple angles, and then still sometimes permanently ban people even then, without a way to pay to prove the person is real or talk to someone or even get a reason for the ban. I also think Facebook is an arm of the government and is not really a company (quasi-governmental) and is basically a corporate rebranding of LifeLog and Zuckerberg probably got a 1600 on his SATs and was recruited to join the government while in high school.

So that all being said, despite my hatred of Facebook, what he is saying isn't that illogical.

Let's say Zuckerberg personally supports trans rights and thinks Trump is an idiot. He can't say that in a meeting that will obviously have leaks. It would be "value-destroying." Say what you want about Zuckerberg, but most people with enough intelligence don't hate trans people because they understand science and how prenatal hormone conditions and epigenetic conditions means that sometimes internal senses of gender don't match biological at birth sex. (Musk is the rare exception to this and it seems like his reaction comes from ego and anger about being estranged from his daughter and autism/lack of empathy, and so he's a weird data point that doesn't neatly fit if we take his reaction at face value.)

So let's say Zuckerberg wants to say "We support trans and gay people, we have to do this so Trump doesn't go after us to remain profitable and not end up needing to decrease our head count, I hate Trump." If he said that, someone would immediately leak it, Trump would go Ape Shit, and the company would lose value.

It's hard to know for certain if this is what he's talking about, but if he is, this isn't really something to fault him on.

Facebook labeling linux as somehow evil, on the other hand, is a bizarre and shitty thing to do, so fuck Facebook and fuck this asshole who is letting linux be labeled as a cybersecurity threat. I also think Facebook doing this is because government, which has backdoors in Microsoft and Apple OSes, doesn't like linux and sees it growing in popularity and so I believe the government requested Facebook do this. I can't fathom a social media company would do this for no reason on their own, it makes no sense, but if Facebook is Lifelog and always has been Lifelog and Zuckerberg gets his orders from someone else, then it would make sense that they implement policies regarding labeling linux as bad to try to keep their backdoors in as many users' OSes as possible.

What's the point of having "Fuck You Money" if you don't say "Fuck you" when it matters?

Eh... intelligence is helpful, but in the end does not inoculate one against BS opinions. Musk is (supposedly) intelligent and toxic as hell, Richard Dawkins is (definitely) intelligent and a fucking TERF. fuck, Jordan Peterson (for all his faults) is a demonstrative intelligent man... he's just also an asshole and wrong about a multitude of things.

Honestly, it looks like the mall ninja tried the skin bronzer and then tried to get rid of it after. The thing is he’s going to have to wait for the dyed skin cells to shed off to replace themselves, as they do. The face itself sheds at different rates in different areas.

This is a disturbing thought, that he is so keen on cozying up Trump he tried the look. Has he changed his hair too? I don’t keep track.
