      I love Steve-O’s story of buying a phone with Wozniak.

      They go to the Apple store, Woz walks up to the counter and says “I’d like to use my employee discount to buy a phone.” The employee asks if he has his card, he says “no but I know my employee number.” The employee then asks for the number, expecting to get something with multiple digits, and Wozniak just replies with “One.”

      If that isn’t the biggest dick energy response to a question I’ve ever heard.

        Then the cashier said “that’s not a valid number” and asked him to leave. The end.

    Jensen wasn’t personally responsible for the AI boom. It was a once-in-a-career coincidence. He’s just another corporate tool.

    We need to stop assuming CEOs are geniuses. They are just average at best but with antisocial tendencies.

      They do manage to transfer their antisocial traits to their companies tho, so, as someone who’s been holding a grudge with nVidia for over 20 years, I’m happy to see him go.

    Tim Sweeney finds another way to NOT learn when to shut the fuck up.

      Sweeney is a moron, but I actually hope he is right this time. It would make me very happy to see Nvidia, the mastermind company of the entire AI-bubble we are living in now, crash and burn.

      Sadly, as already stated, Sweeney is a moron, and he is most likely not right.

      I also agree Felon Musk should hire him, and grant access to vital confidential information, just to prove the point.

    I’m becoming convinced that every tech-bro head of a company is functionally retarded.

    Tim Sweeney doesn’t want to imagine a world where powerful people face consequences for their actions.

    People with money are putting a lot of “spin” on this story already. Social media posts like “so what if a CEO has affairs, if he’s doing a good job??” etc.

    They all conveniently ignore the Affair With a Chinese Spy part. That’s the part where he was not doing a good job, and it’s an important part.

    Tim “All In on AI” Sweeney can barely keep his company afloat, I think he should shut the fuck up.

      Tim should raise capex for the massive AI costs by fundraising through twitch style streams where gamers pay him to sit quietly in a chair and keep his mouth shut.

      There could even be a Q&A section where questions are asked to Tim and he still isn’t allowed to talk or else he loses all the funds he raised for that day.
