@Marleen_Hamburg @DesireeAmerica4 That's called cheating and stealing. He's not the first.

@DesireeAmerica4 #KamilMajchrzak did a great job meeting with the boy. I love the boy met him in person

@DesireeAmerica4 Show him this vid here so he can see what you are supposed to do in that situation

UPDATE: He took the hat from a kid on camera… and now his entire business is getting torched.

The man who selfishly snatched the signed cap at the US Open has been identified.
His name is Piotr Szczerek, CEO of a Polish paving company called Drogbruk.

The internet didn’t just find him.
They found his company.
And they’re lighting up every review site they can find.

This is what happens when the world sees you rob a kid’s moment, and you smile like you got away with it.

Josh Hawley — in a hearing with Facebook/Meta whistleblower Sarah-Wynn Williams — reveals that Meta gave user data to the CHINESE GOVERNMENT in order to operate in the country:

"In exchange for the ability to establish operations in China, FB will agree to grant the Chinese government access to Chinese users’ data — including Hongkongese users’ data," a Facebook staffer wrote in an email read aloud by @HawleyMO.

@li84824587 @telegram Funny how @telegram doesn't ban scammers from advertising their services on its own channel.

@SeghierDesigner @telegram There is apparently an entire business built around getting the confirmation codes, eh?

[Dan Vlasic @DanVlasic]

@AFrostyKanuk4Ya @telegram Same here. Seems like a MAJOR bug in Telegram, confirmation codes just never arrive. Unless telegram is being blacklisted by providers.

Good luck to all the Oscar nominees.

@aravindmc @Jikkyleaks White papers and meta analyses are written by PR agencies. I worked for one. Pharma is mostly marketing.

🔥 How I broke the internet today and what lessons can we learn from it? #Crowdstrike 🧐

Several things that make it a good fake that worked: 👇
1. No culprit named yet, I bring it on a platter, people like to have a culprit.
2- The culprit seems completely stupid, he is proud of his stupidity, he... takes his afternoon off on... the first day of work...
3- This falls right into a huge buzz in which people absolutely need to have new information, and a fake is by nature new, you won't read it anywhere else
4- In English = very easy to share internationally, with the vast majority of people who have no idea who I am.
5- Baby fingers are stupid, but they distract people from other things (like the fact that I have a horn on my head because of bad clipping)
6- Confirmation bias: People want to believe it, it's so funny. “I like the information, so it is true.”
7- The information is pushed ironically by people who know that it is a joke, and then it arrives in the litteral zone which amplifies it even stronger.

So I am at Walmart scanning and bagging my almost $300 worth of groceries while the employee that wants $15 an hour "monitors" and then this happened.
Her - why are you double bagging all of your groceries?
Me - excuse me?
Her - you are wasting our bags!
Me - if you don't like the way I'm bagging the groceries, feel free to come on over here and bag them yourself.
Her - that's not my job!
Me - okay, then I will bag my groceries how I please if that's all right with you.
Her - why are you using two bags?!
Me - because the bags are weak and I don't want the handles to break or the bottoms to rip out.
Her - well, that's because you are putting too much stuff in the bag. If you took half of that stuff out and put it in a different bag, then you wouldn't need to double bag.
*10 seconds of me just staring at her.
Me - so you want me to split these items in half and put half of them in a different bag so that I don't have to double bag.
Her - exactly.
Me - so I would still be using two bags to hold the same number of items.
Her - no, because you wouldn't be double bagging.
*me pressing two fingers to my left eye in an attempt to make it stop twitching.
Me - okay, so here I have a jug of milk and a bottle of juice double bagged. If I take the milk out and remove the double bagging and just put the milk in the single bag and the juice in that single bag, I'm still using two bags for these two items.
Her- no, because you are not double bagging them, so it's not the same number of bags.
*me looking around at about 10 other customers who at this point are enjoying the show.
Me- is this like that Common Core math stuff I keep hearing about?
Her- never mind, you just don't get it.
And with that, she went back to her little Podium so she could continue texting or playing games on her phone or whatever it was she was doing before she decided to come over and critique my bagging skills.😂😂
