This timing. Nvidia sacrificing Huang at the alter of capitalism (resigned to live out his life in unimaginable luxury) to distance themselves from the disastrous Trump administration they have been cozying up to for two years. “It wasn’t us, it was that Huang guy! Please do not impact our market cap.”
I wonder if “Little Jensen” has it’s own little leather jacket…
That’s how they made condoms back in the day
No one stops at 2 affairs, there is more yet to come out. No wonder he resigned
Unless it’s little girls or he raped someone this really isn’t that big news. What’s this Bill Clinton morality suddenly popping up.
It’s maybe not news in America, because your president is a pedo rapist. Other countries mostly frown on this behaviour.
Affairs are in the news all of the time. What’s up with you thinking this is some unusual thing? The morality never left.
Shouldn’t you be moderating fifty empty subs, posting to yourself?
Subordinates and spies are newsworthy.
If these were randoms on hinge (or grinder) then hopefully there would be less uproar.
Lost his job, will lose his wife, and half of his wealth. Lucky for him half his wealth is still wealth. He won’t get the Chinese spy baddies anymore, he’ll have to make do with the regular billionaire groupies.
How could Biden have done this?!?
The same way he shits Donald’s pants.
Nah. Clearly this is Bill Clinton’s fault.
He transgendered the Juang!
Lol these fools think they’re so special and can do whatever they want and fail at it so much, but still crazy rich.
The jacket definitely stays on
first leatherjacket gone, now the remove the second one
If there is a video of him removing his jacket it definitely needs to be turned in to a meme like the sunglasses ones
I’m convicted this guy consulted with every AI over who would be okay to fuck at any given time.
“Hey, Claude, should I have sex with this hot Chinese lady? (Uploads nude)”
“Sex is a very entertaining and sane activity for most people when done responsibly. This particular picture you uploaded shows some healthy attributes that most men would define as attractive. If the occasion arises, go get her, tiger!”.
“Your absolutely right, having sex with a foreign spy was not the right call, I shouldnt have made it. Do you have any other sexual relations inquiries?”
“Actually, yes! Completely unrelated stuff, but this coworker, twenty years younger rally likes my leather jackets…”
That jacket’s got a mind of its own.
I hope the third affair is with a dude.
Multiple dudes all at once
Just fuck an escort if you are so horny and an unfaithful piece of shit. Having an affair with an employee and a business partner is the dumbest thing you can do as a CEO.
Hard logic unfortunately that you can’t buy the delusion that she wants it.
Having an affair with an employee and a business partner is the dumbest thing you can do as a CEO.
Correction: Doing so without a prenup is dumber.
He has more money than anyone could ever realistically spend. Prenup or not makes fuck all real difference.
Except to his high score in the sociopath game
The big question is whether there was more illegal chip smuggling.
so a thing to understand about weird rich guy sex stuff is that they find power dynamics sexually alluring. the fact that he had power over this employee surely factored into the desireability of the encounter
These cats need to just learn ethical BDSM like the rest of us.

I don’t know. Elon has done some retarded shit.
I hate Elon as much as the next guy, but we don’t need to resort to using slurs to get our point across
I think it has a very legitimate use, when used as a describing word about actions, instead of a way to mock handicapped people. And I think it’s a shame to completely dismiss a word that has a very nice length and prononciation for saying things in anger. It could just as easily be co-opted to mean something different that doesn’t mock handicapped people. There’s just not a better fitting word for many situations, since “stupid” just doesn’t cut it.
Basically, I find it okay to use it when refering to actions like “Elon has done some retarded shit”. In such a case it isn’t used to mock handicapped people, which is never okay no matter what word you use anyway.
While I generally agree with the sentiment, you’re overlooking the inherently social nature of language. At the moment, that is a word non grata. Give it a decade on the euphemism treadmill, and it will become mostly acceptable to use in the contexts you outlined.
At the moment, I think you’re going to have a hard time using that word without offending someone outside of a musical composition situation. You’ll probably offend some folks using it in the context of musical composition too, but at least “retard” is the proper term for slowing the tempo in the middle of a composition.
It seems to very much depend on where you are. I have yet to hear literally anyone irl complain about use of the word retarded, when refering to an action. Either way, the meaning of the word is only going to change when people actively use it. It’s not going to change if we decide to stick with the “bad” version of the meaning and making it taboo.
I have. Not very often, but it has happened at some points.
I think using retarded to mean stupid could be part of the problem, actually. Like your Elon example, tbh. The fact that it is being used in a way that refers to mental faculties could cause offense to people with delayed mental faculties. Using the word to mean “slowed”, in the original meaning, without referring to mental faculties, is probably more likely to rehabilitate the word apart from the use as a slur.
Considering the disabled community has said Southpark handles how disabled people should be treated real well with Jimmy/Timmy, and Southpark uses the word retarded, I concur.
Retard is a slur? Yikes.
Has been for decades.
Without taking sides in this debate, let me just say that you’d have an easier time arguing that “slurs are sometimes okay to say” than trying to argue that “‘retard’ isn’t a slur”.
It’s like, 100% a slur. You know how ethnic slurs are called ethnic slurs? That’s because there are non-ethnic kinds. Really curious what definition you use for slur that wouldn’t include “retard”. It’s an old-timey word used to describe a specific type of person, which is now largely considered offensive by that type of person, and has become used in a general sense as an insult…I mean, what box does it not check?
Seems like its regional. Some areas really hate it. Others its totally fine to use at work. Thanks to the internet, both can interact and think the other is odd.
Here’s a good test for whether it’s a slur. Would you say it in front of someone with Down’s Syndrome, or would you find another word?
Is it a slur or advanced physics? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarded_potential
Just learning how slurs work?
I think Lemmy is over sensitive about these things too. To me, retard is more like a funny word. But there are plenty of people who think it should never be used anymore because of actually retarded people and how they may feel.
Also, the word is banned from YouTube I think, and possibly large parts of reddit as well. :) I think its silly but whatever, I can live with not using it, sure.
All slurs can be funny to the right idiots.
I think banning words are funny. :) Can’t wait to see what’s next. Probably the word Muslim will insulting soon.
It’s harder to understand why using a word would be wrong when they don’t affect you. Have some empathy and understand why for people that are marginalized and called something as a slur that it would be nicer to just stop using the word.
Nobody is banning the word, either. Just responding with their own free speech to say it’s idioitic to not understand why slurs are wrong to use.
You’re either 15 or 65. No way you’re a dense edgelord.
It’s not about sex. It’s about social status and power. And yes, it’s incredibly dumb.
He fucked her, not beat her in a fight.
Of course it’s about sex. Power makes sexy. But he was probably just extremely horny for some variety.I think he meant for the woman it can be about power and status to fuck a guy like that.
Well, the woman isn’t target of all the news. Did she even cheat?
Both Kimberly Powell (Nvidia vice president) and Alice Huang (spy) were married, though it sounds like at least the spy’s husband was apparently aware of what was going on.
A Mystery Businessman Introduced Jensen Huang to His Paramour. It Was Her Husband.
Kang Wei appeared to accept that his wife Alice Huang was in a romantic relationship and spoke openly of her closeness to the Nvidia chief
Good question. News hasn’t mentioned anything about her having someone but a woman like that is not single by choice.
business partner is the dumbest
Spy is actually dumber
You just know there’s a massive amount going on under the surface. There are going to be so many metoos who are voiceless in lower ranks being assaulted of this is just the surface we are seeing.
They were not assaulted, come on. :)
Women like men with power and money. This is all voluntary from both sides.
But yes, probably more ladies coming out soon.
bit refreshing seeing a billionaire not fucking kids.
a bit of a horndog and cheating bastard, but who expected a saint?! this guy is a CEO he would sell his soul for a increase in stock value.
I’m not upset at all about the infidelity. But judging from this thread, I guess people care a lot about if he is faithful or not.
I think it may be a lot of virtue signaling also, as usual. But it’s a fact that a lot of people are unfaithful.
Perhaps marriage is not a great idea in general if a lot of people are not happy in it. Usually the decision to marry comes early in a relationship, within a few years. Then reality hits that its not as exciting as they thought after a few years, and perhaps the attraction dies.
I think a lot of guys would cheat with a woman like this, and if they would, I dont think its authentic to judge Jensen for that part.
I’m sure it’s an American thing, or just the demographics in lemmy.
In countries without state welfare, marriage is an economic construct to secure the funding of raising children. In the past it was also used to secure the funding of the potential mother.
Marriage did already change a lot. But in the countries with shitty state support for single parents and their children, it still serves its purpose. It does not prevent cheating, though - and probably never did.You are right that the judgement is a bit stupid.
A quarter of all men cheat. A fifth of all women cheat. Cheating is somewhat common. Maybe, it’s time to accept the fact that human sexuality isn’t really that easy to confine. Normalizing porn as venting mechanism for unfulfilled desires might help men and women stay exclusive.It’s hard to know for sure how many cheat, and I suspect the real numbers are much higher than what the statistics say (since people won’t always be honest about what they do or did).
I suspect people are afraid of getting caught, mostly, and I read that most cheating happens when being away on conferences and stuff like that. Whenever there is no chance that anyone else finds out who meets together in a room.
But yeah, people won’t like to think about these things since it’s scary as hell if you are being cheated on.
billionaire not fucking kids
As far as we know
Clearly screwing up his job now, hehehe
Kids are not subordinates or chinese intelligence, so they wouldn’t even move the needle in ‘newsworthiness’ in this sad state of affairs.
Give it time, we’ve just started investigating.
Fucking a spy who targeted him is a restraint problem. Fucking a second woman at work who wasn’t paid to seduce is a serious restraint problem.
A serious restraining problem and unlimited privilege make for sketchy waters.
bit refreshing seeing a billionaire not fucking kids.
So far… I convinced than 99,9% of the bilionaries have one of those secret places epstein style to do things who would make the the movie “Hostel” look like a pg13 shopping mall movie
huang got an active wang.
Can totally handle thirds, about now.
Do you think he knows about elevenses?
