@Npars01 @w7voa I feel like we are really missing Steve Jobs right now, he was good friends with Ellison and apparently often reigned in his worst tendencies.

I also believe, as a child of Syrian immigrants, he would not be as willing to kiss the ring as Cook. But who really knows.

@chris @Npars01 @w7voa Jobs was not the child of Iranian immigrants. His father was Syrian.

@samueljohnson @Npars01 @w7voa my bad on the memory. Syrian. Edited.

[samueljohnson@mstdn.social]

@chris @Npars01 @w7voa Biological father too. He was adopted, so culturally an American.

@samueljohnson @Npars01 @w7voa that I did not know!
