What’s the largest number of cybertrucks anyone has seen at the same time?

I didn't dig hard but I found 5 CXYBRTRUXX on a car carrier and I haven't found more than that.

alright, to sound like an old man: What the gently caress does sigma mean?
Aside from the greek letter?

Mathematically it means like the sum/collection of all things in a set

But techbros/incels don't understand set theory so they assume it's this this thing that sits outside of the alpha beta gamma hierarchy

I was at a party once and some reedy guy was clear ly deep in the paint of this and interpreted my ability to talk to women and having a couple of funny stories in my back pocket as being the sigma male.

"Oh so your a sigma male?"
"Nah man that whole tiering thing is bullshit, just learn how to talk to people, and maybe shave or whatever"
It was equal parts having his conception cracked and accepting knowledge given to him by the sigma (in his system, not mine)

These people lock themselves in a jail and then forget they have the key

alpha males = men who are super attractive and charismatic and get all of the females

sigma males = lone wolves who don’t even need or care about women. John wick and homelander are popular examples

Like a lot of internet stuff, it’s something that probably started semi-ironically but then people got into it for real

a quick googling leads me to the conclusion that a (e: self-identified) sigma male is an arrogant rear end in a top hat with no friends

What the gently caress are you talking about? Sigma is a letter in the Greek alphabet, summation is one of the things it's used for.

You do not need to "understand set theory" to understand summation, it's literally a shorthand for a bunch of pluses.

He's talking about how techbros/incels don't understand enough about set theory to know that the explanation of why they chose that letter is wrong. You're shooting the messenger.

They're saying that they didn't pay X to announce the partnership. They aren't denying the partnership.

The way partnering with a conference works is some company pays them a bunch of money to have their logo plastered over all the event media and swag. In other words, twitter is the one paying for advertising in this partnership.

Sponsorship and partnership are very different things, and you’re conflating the two.
