World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Too bad Jensen didn't live in France.
If a corporate leader or politician doesn't have a mistress or some other extramarital affairs, they're looked at with suspicion.
To be fair, that may be the natural order of things:
If you can afford it, why wouldn't a rich and/or powerful male have a harem?
Morals? Respect for his wife?
Oh, wait, billionaire. Nvm
men and women of power both have had harems for hundreds of years while also having respect for their first wife or husband. Harems by themselves don't mean lack of respect. Its just a different dynamic.
A single partner or many in both cases you can show respect or disrespect for others.
You are imposing values from one culture upon a different culture. Respect is shown differently from culture to culture, there isn't some universal way of doing that. So your example isn't really applicable in this situation.
And what culture do you think i am from? In my culture anything but monogamy is considered a sin and evil. That doesn't mean i cant respect others, understand history, or the basic concept of human consent. It doesn't matter what culture your from. The entire FUCKING point im making here is that no one culture gets to decide what is or isn't right.
A harem in and of it self means NOTHING one way or another to these facts. What moral value get applied is a whole fucking DIFFERENT point.
So fuck off.
Sexual repression has its origins in Judeo Christian monotheistic religion, and religion is the opiate of the masses.
So go ahead and be a sexually repressed prude.
It's how the elite want you to behave to keep you under their control.
If you're going to fuck a bunch of people, make sure your partner is aware and approves. If they don't, either don't go fucking around, or get out of the relationship. If you cheat, you're a cunt.
Some people are monogamous and some aren't there's no need to be a cunt about it.
A harem is definitely not about control or a central figure in charge. Nope. /s
You can be kinky and respectful of others, if you want multiple partners go poly, swing, or something like that
"Don't worry honey, I'm not religious so I have no morals about non-monogamy."
"My wife? She knows I'm not religious so it's fine."
OpSec integrity, apparently.
The issue is not the mistress, it appears the mistress was a spy for China
And the second one caused conflict of interest, being his subordinate.
Don't know yet what kind of law #3 breaks.
Well, since it was also an Nvidia employee, it's the same as #2.
Would have been really funny if he had a Russian mistress, a North Korean mistress, an Israeli mistress...
And they all walked into a bar?
Guarantee he's had an affair with some Israeli woman. Nvidia has a huge office there so he's almost certainly visited many times
What if the affair is with the CEO of a Singaporean data center company that your company sells chips to who is also a Chinese spy who directs those chips to China, which is a serious violation of US trade law, and then you introduced that spy to the president of the United States, whose administration then dropped its investigation into that spy's company?
