Now is a good time to flood Wikipedia with donations. For the first time in my life, i have just donated to them and will do so again. You can do it too for a minimum of €2, no requirement for recurring donations or any nonsense.

All it takes for you guys to donate is for Elon to make a dick pun about your name?

If I can get him to do mine will you donate to me? I'm broke af I could use it.

Does he stipulate for how long? If not, change it for a day, take his money, change it back, and give Elongated Muskrat the finger.

Get the money first. You don't want to end up in a long, protracted legal battle because he offered you money in a social media post. It's how he ended up with Twitter.

I'd give Elon 1 billion picoDollars to change his name to Dickipedia. Rounded down.

Big Train was s-tier sketch comedy.

It was basically the light-hearted counterpart to Jam

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Vaguely relevant Big Train

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

This is so douchey. Why not just give that money to Wikipedia? Or even a smaller amount? As the largest free information resource in the world, Wikipedia is an invaluable asset for humanity as a whole. Just feels weird to say, "I'll give you money, but do a trick first," to anyone, let alone the holders of a free, worldwide encyclopedia.

Wikipedia is a useful tool, Elon is a major tool.

He should keep it and rename himself. It suits him more.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Yo I’ll change my name to Dickipedia

[-] Jumi@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Wikipedia is already rich enough, donate to the contributors instead
