The Rules

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

We have investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing.

Are we going to have to literally eat the rich to get rid of them?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 3 points 5 months ago

Well, we can feed them to a more honest kind of pig

Wait, Alty's back?

[–] par4ndroid@infosec.pub 24 points 5 months ago

He was gone for like 5 minutes.

I'm just curious, how did you miss that? 😅 It was the biggest story in tech like 6 months ago

I knew they kicked him and something about Microsoft, but I lost track there ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It was like the next morning they had hired him back and started pretending it never happened. I think MS threatened to shut them down and take what they’d paid for.

After the employees sent around a letter talking about their market position as what was, in theory, a nonprofit, and Lemmy licked that bullshit up with a fervor.
