A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Then he should have apologized?

[–] atocci@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Absolutely should have apologized. Who knows what he's thinking.

At least FlyingLaserTurtle apologized. Kinda felt hollow to me though compared to what he said.

It was good that they apologised but it probably the easiest thing out of the long, long list to apologise for.

Agreed, and while nice that it happened, doing so when you are just plain wrong is kind of the bare minimum.

You know that’s a big no no from his legal team.

His legal team more likely advised him to not comment on it. Doubling down is just slander / libel. If his legal team did tell him to talk more about it AND to not apologize, his legal team is big dumb
