Slashdot is Once Again Publishing Lies and Revisionism for Bill Gates, Citing Microsoft's MSN to Rewrite History and Distract From the Jeffrey Epstein Crimes

Hours ago: Journalistic Malpractice Helps Bill Gates Cover Up His Marriage Collapsing Because of His Very Deep Ties to Jeffrey Epstein (and It's Melinda Who Dumped Him, Divorce Proceedings Started by Her in 2019)

Microsoft's MSN, fake 'leak' or preview: Bill Gates Began the Altair BASIC Code in His Head While Hiking as a Teenager

Recently we saw history about Steve Ballmer and OS/2 being 'canceled', with facts 'consigned' or relegated to "conspiracy theories".

Now it's Bill's turn. Under the banner of "Source Code" (which he notoriously fished out of garbage cans, i.e. other people's discarded work), Slashdot is yet again acting as PR arm of Gates (we covered many more examples in the past).

Someone who spotted this and knows the history told us: "Here we have billg [Bill Gates alias] remembering how he wrote Altair Basic in his head. Forgetting how he copied it from a DEC Basic tape accidentally left in the guts of the school PDF computer. Later on in that letter to hobbyists, he said it cost up to $40,000 to develop Basic. Forgetting to mention it was done for free on unauthorised computer time. Gates was sanctioned but the terms were sealed."

Also: "He got the floating routines written by a school friend. No doubt that will be also consigned to the memory hole."

When you bribe or even directly control so much of the media, as clearly happens here, you can make even lies seem like (perceived) truth. Sites critical of you can be taken offline or compelled to delete articles about you (that happened too).

Of course this also distracts from why the media must permanently treat him like a pariah and he should be investigated/detained by authorities. Don't expect this to happen when white-collar crime represents the government itself.
