Amazon built those Cool spheres from portal 2 and put plants in them but they won't pay for healthcare for their warehouse employees

No. Elon says it's because the other manufacturers don't want to play ball, but really it's because their supercharger plug is expensive to integrate and they won't join the relevant standards bodies, and as soon as they put one in a car, Tesla will say it's Tesla-only.

Obviously neither of you read my post or were interested in actually correcting what you thought was a bad opinion, just dunking on what you thought was a bad person.

I didn’t say the reddit harassment didn’t happen, I said Vice said they wanted to include it to help other people. I didn’t say Wu was in the wrong, I’m saying their story is massively different from the other side in terms of what the reaction was. If Wu said no, absolutely not at *any point* about including that stuff, and Vice pushed her, that’s poo poo. If Vice avoided it at first, then came back and said "we want to include this," and Wu didn’t want it included, she has the right to ask them to pull the whole story.

But the story from Vice was Wu asked them to do stuff they don’t do for anyone and started maligning the author immediately. I feel like poo poo’s being left out, and if I don’t want to immediately call either side trash, then I’m loving well allowed to without being compared to someone who minimalizes sexual assault.

So again, go gently caress yourselves.

whats the point to drudging up old sexist drama that wu clearly wants to leave behind? it's clearly dumb sexism "but woman cant make there must be man make!!" and theres no point for vice to include it, like, at all unless they want to piss off naomi wu???
