Post things your (least) fav billionaire does.

This used to be the Elon Musk sub, but in an attempt to boost engagement, we have engaged a new pathway.

You can post anything related to billionaires here.

I am happy to let you know that my lobbying at work to ditch 12 Oracle production databases in favor of postgresql has been successful. I'm doing my part.

(Plus, oradb is a fucking PITA)

You'll be happy to know that my attempts at lobbying your work to use Access have failed.

VMware has entered the chat.

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

VMware has been banned from the chat. Reason: Bigotry (on my part)

My university uses an Oracle system. You have to manually input 15 character chart strings on every purchase and expense. It's so needlessly complex at the user level we need 15 minute videos on how to request a PO number.

Oh shit he's totally unfuckable now, poor guy.

How do we do away with billionaire class entirely? No person, company or group of individuals should have more wealth and power than a nation.

let them flee to thier bunkers, mansions then seal off all thier escape routes,.

Tar and feathers?

What do you call a multi billionaire who loses 10 billions? A multi billionaire.

Labelling rich ppl in a top 10 list doesn't help the problem we have with the wealth gap. I'm sure they look at this and get the urge to get richer

[–] msage@programming.dev 1 points 3 days ago

I don't think they use that list anyway.

Let me know when his cold corpse plunges into the earth. This man is trying be an American Rupert Murdoch.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

he will probably pass away after getting trapped and cooked in his AI datacenter.

[–] pnwpixel@programming.dev 1 points 3 days ago

That works for me!

Thoughts and prayers

[–] Smaile@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 days ago

eh, this means basicly nothing. im sure plenty of us have lost 10% of their net worth in a week this year

[–] psycotica0@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 days ago

I'd like, just once in my life, to lose $10 billion. Someday...

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

He's still the ugliest billionaire, so at least he's got that going for him.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

He still looks just as delicious as the rest of them

[–] BigTuffAl@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago

when the dollar collapses in three weeks, what the fuck are these assholes going to do?

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.cafe 5 points 3 days ago

Oh no how unfortunate.

[–] ExtremeDullard@piefed.social 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm trying to sympathize. I really am...

I heard he is moving back in with his mom in Wisconsin. I think it's for the best.
