Even when he was considered "normal", he was a loser. 100% she had dick on the side.

It's telling that someone who gets a windfall immediately purchases a status symbol. Almost as if the point of being rich is lost if everyone doesn't know it.

Wealth is wasted on the rich.

My status symbol would be 1,000 acres of land with a self sufficient farm and some recreational spots, and tiny houses for lgbt people to live on.

if you're lgbt and not an asshole, come live near people who accept you for who you are, I baked cookies!

Wealth is wasted on the rich, ideally it's given to those who couldn't care less about it and desire to decrease needless and avoidable suffering for all minds as much as possible.

If I were rich I’d open up a bunch of repair cafes that lost money but helped people fix their stuff and keep it out landfills and taught people valuable soldering/electronics/programming/DIY skills while bringing the community together with volunteers and cheap coffee! Ah, that’s the dream..

Socialists like yourself are filtered out before your empathy can damage the stock market

I think we might have a similar work background. Mechatronics is so much fun. To do a little of everything, CAD, 3D printing, soldering, wood working, welding, programming and then have something functional that didn't exist before is so enjoyable. Same with upcycling like what you're saying. Seems like something that could be a feature added onto select libraries as they are fundamentally for the philanthropic sharing of knowledge.

A friend in college had an idea for a website like this kind of centered around skill sharking aka people would post skills or ask for help and trade work to better their community. Example being someone's bike is broken and then someone who is handy helps them and they get the "karma" on the website.

This guy is so unsympathetic. He was even worse back then. But let’s keep personal assessments out of this: he is dangerous, and shouldn’t have the control and money.

In 2000, while driving on Sand Hill Road with PayPal Inc. Co-Founder Peter Thiel to a meeting, a moment of bravado led Musk to demonstrate the car’s capabilities. “Watch this,” he said, moments before the McLaren spun out of control, flew “like a discus” 3 feet into the air and crashed. The worst part? The car wasn’t insured.

What a dipshit.

The worst part? ~~The car wasn’t insured~~They both survived.

To think how much shit the world nearly dodged.

A pivotal moment that crashed our timeline into darkness.

[–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 8 points 8 hours ago

I'm pretty sure capitalism would have just made another Nazi the first trillionaire, and collapsed into fascism either way.

The problem is systemic; continuously rewarding sociopaths and psychopaths with wealth and power.

[–] newthrowaway20@lemmy.world 25 points 9 hours ago

Damn. if only the car had exploded.

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago
