He didn’t create PayPal. He co-founded x.com, and was replaced as ceo for being inexperienced in less than a year. x.com later merged with confinity, which operated PayPal. It was at this point that musk returned as CEO, until he got kicked out again in 2000.

Gross to me that multiple comments here are ignoring this reality. Crimes committed by men against women in situations like that are so common that women aren’t protecting themselves unless they consider every unfamiliar man a potential threat.

Obviously women can also commit crimes against men, but its so much less common that I don’t have to take precautions to protect myself against them.

As a man it kind of sucks when you are assumed to be dangerous even when you aren’t, but you need to get over it. Its not worth it for women to compromise their safety, and assume you to not be a threat just to make you feel better.

You mean women are also capable of committing crimes? I’m gonna need some more sources for an outlandish take like that.

I’ve seen boomers complain about a lot of things, but young people’s propensity for addiction is not one of them.

No, because Facebook is not explicitly designed for the sole purpose of illegal transactions. Very clear difference.

I think its slightly dishonest to frame this as him simply “creating a website”. He created a marketplace to sell drugs on, I just don’t understand the sympathy. I feel bad for low level drug dealers in jail, this guy not so much.

I would agree it could’ve been handled differently, same with every other aspect of the war on drugs. But celebrating this guy is a step too far for me.

Why are people in support of this guy?

Guys this is a Buddhist symbol. I’m simply supporting America’s religious diversity, you bigots.

You don’t have to have a debate, but using that image as a reaction makes you look like a child. Just respond thoughtfully, or don’t respond at all.

Really bro? That’s what we’re doing now?

That is true, but hamas has a far better reason to be an asshole. If I were in their situation, I wouldn’t be the most agreeable person either. My hope is that if their impending doom is eliminated, their more problematic behavior would go with it.

Banjo slander should not be tolerated

Whenever I get a tech question its always about how to navigate a gui I am unfamiliar with. And when I can’t give them an answer, they assume I’m actually clueless about technology.

I am indifferent. That guy wasn’t the problem, its the system that allows him to exist. This sends a message but all I see it doing is convincing wealthy capitalists to invest more in their protection.

Not really technically. One is a physical attribute, and the other is a measure of wealth. Those aren’t even remotely close to being hobbies. You just brought them up because you think women are shallow, which is probably the real reason they don’t like you.

I did more research and I found out it actually isn’t standard where I live now, I am misremembering probably because I haven’t had many interactions with police here. This is a somewhat standard practice in major cities though which would explain why I was familiar with it. I will admit copaganda probably reinforced that though, most media I’ve seen does depict 2 officers. But whatever, I’m always happy to learn a new reason to hate cops.

No, I am thinking of what I have seen in real life. In my area there is almost always 2 cops per vehicle. I was unaware this was not standard.

I haven’t seen that before. I guess they really are just using a laptop and driving at the same time.

I don’t want to be the guy defending cops, but there is usually more than one officer in a squad car. There is no rule against a passenger being distracted.

I use pomade and it surprised me how often its branded like that. I have seen at least three brands that unironically use flaming skeletons. Also I have to say dapper dan is not great (at least the modern kind).

Edit: Apparently the modern kind is the only kind. O Brother just made it up, and someone took the design and made it real in 2011.
