Re: Elon Musk offers 1 billion USD if Wikipedia changes its name to Dickipedia

If they were still maintaining I'd fully expect to see Musk included in the list of dicks In 2007 Lord Elon was a minor Valley figure and Tesla Motors was a tiny startup being laughed at by the auto industry. Tesla probably would have failed--until Toyota (stupidly?) sold them the NUMMI factory at ...

Re: Some anti-Wikipedia history

Musk has tweeted "Deus X Machina" which was taken by many as the intention to buy Wikipedia due to similar actions immediately before he bought Twitter. Would he finally clean the house, or rather replace a set of problems with different sets? Who knows? It'd be like Twitter.. replacing one set of ...

Re: Elon Musk offers 1 billion USD if Wikipedia changes its name to Dickipedia

lol, nice troll job Since Musk is notorious for not paying bills, even if they were stupid enough to change the name, he would likely never pay up. Besides, remember there already WAS a "Dickipedia". It ran from 2007 to the end of 2011. Last capture I could find: https://web.archive.org/web/2011120...

RFK Jr and Wikipedia

Happened to be stepping through the dial and landed on this interview with RFK Jr on a show called "In Depth" where he objected to his wikipedia entry and that it is locked. Seems to mostly be about perceived anti-vaccine advocacy that he claims stems from his objection to mercury in vaccines that h...

Re: Burning Man is HELL

it rained the one year I went and it is worse than the sand storms because it becomes nearly impossible to move around. You quickly find yourself walking on platform shoes made of mud and bike chains are quickly seized up by the extremely acidic clay that covers everything

Re: Section 230 is in trouble -- at last !

I suppose this is tangential but any thoughts on Meta blocking links to Canadian news outlets because they don't want to be forced to pay for something that users are posting at will? From what I understand users are still free to post links but those links cannot be shared through any mechanism on ...
