Falsehoods Unchallenged Only Fester and Grow

They gravitate toward this type of position. My husband worked for one thirty years ago. We talk about psychopaths and have always figured Richard's picture was next to the definition.RVInit wrote: ↑Thu Dec 15, 2022 8:23 pmhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on- ... 1-percent/Danraft wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 10:21 pm Gawd this irks me….
The world’s richest man…
Not anymore. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/compani ... r-AA15gxSZ
Bernard Arnault, the chairman of French luxury goods giant LVMH (LVMHF), has just become the first European to top Bloomberg’s list of the world’s richest people, relegating Elon Musk to second place.
Now worth $171 billion, Arnault’s wealth eclipsed the Tesla CEO’s $164 billion fortune on Tuesday, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Arnault had already ousted Musk from the top spot on Forbes’ list of “Real Time Billionaires” last week.
Musk’s net worth has tumbled by $107 billion this year, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Arnault’s wealth, which stems from his controlling stake in LVMH, has suffered a more modest $7 billion decline.
The divergence is partly down to the stock performance of the companies in which the pair own shares. Musk’s purchase of Twitter (TWTR) hasn’t helped either. Still, he is in no imminent danger of falling further down the list: His fortune remains comfortably bigger than that of Indian industrialist Gautam Adani ($125 billion) and Amazon (AMZN) founder Jeff Bezos ($116 billion), who rank third and fourth on Bloomberg’s list.
The data has confirmed all of our suspicions: one in five chief executives are psychopaths. At least, that’s what was found by a recent study of 261 senior corporate professionals in the United States.
What exactly is a psychopath? Webster’s Dictionary defines the condition as “a person who is mentally ill, who does not care about other people, and who is usually dangerous or violent and affected with antisocial personality disorder.” Yeah, that pretty much describes me on some days…and my entire client base most of the time!
“Typically psychopaths create a lot of chaos and generally tend to play people off against each other,” Nathan Brooks, a forensic psychologist and the lead researcher of the study said in this report from The Telegraph. “For psychopaths, it [corporate success] is a game and they don’t mind if they violate morals. It is about getting where they want in the company and having dominance over others.”
Perhaps if everyone STOPPED using Twitter, or at least TOOK SCREENSHOTS, those posts would remain so that we all knew what was being discussed. But no one wants to do that because it's too much work and too much trouble.raison de arizona wrote: ↑Thu Dec 15, 2022 9:23 pm You want to know what pisses me off more than anything?

All those broken links, many without text because he is always posting video.
Most of Rupar's posts are videos, it isn't trivial to rip the video and host it elsewhere for posterity. I (and many others) generally try to make an effort to provide alternative info, even though it takes me much longer on my phone, so I'm having trouble not taking this personally. I'm not looking for a pat on the back, but you are painting with an awfully broad brush.Azastan wrote: ↑Thu Dec 15, 2022 9:35 pmPerhaps if everyone STOPPED using Twitter, or at least TOOK SCREENSHOTS, those posts would remain so that we all knew what was being discussed.

I've muted several people here, not because they don't often have beneficial information to contribute, but because they INSIST upon only providing a link to a Twitter post, sometimes several links to Twitter in a row. Then the post goes 'poof' and it's no longer valuable information, but simply a drag on load time.

My point is, once those posts have been deleted, no one knows what they are unless someone's bothered to make a screen shot, or in this case, ripped the video.raison de arizona wrote: ↑Thu Dec 15, 2022 9:39 pm

For a lot of time, I couldn't see tweets, but I almost always have on Fogbow 2.0. I read them sometimes here, but I have clicked by mistake and ended up on the site. Maybe two or three times when I've landed by mistake, I've read a few of the comments, but usually I close out the page. I've never had an account.

I routinely clear my cache, and we have the electricity go out often enough that the router resets itself every week or so (snow and windy conditions play havoc with the power lines).Danraft wrote: ↑Thu Dec 15, 2022 9:58 pm I’m guilty of not doing a screenshot of a tweet. I will generally take the extra info of the URL after the “?” off(which maybe shortens load time).
Is it possible in settings (either under Fogbow settings or your browser settings) to not load hyperlinks or images? Dunno, but while I often have slow load time … restarting my router, or disconnecting and reconnecting from my router, or clearing my cache… all help a LOT.
That said, Twitter may not be (“I’ve seen enough” I will will be doing Post and Mastadon (as well as Twitter for a bit)) the great general service up to date and most useful social media platform for real news— some other platform(s) will take their place.
Likely, they will not be any faster to load than Twitter.
And, the primary I don’t do all that stuff to make it easier for others with horrible internet isn’t that I don’t care, but that I am on a mobile device (not a desktop or laptop) and on a device without a keyboard or cursor and a very small input area it is damn near (i started to type impossible— pick a less strong word).
