Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak was hospitalized in Mexico City on Wednesday, a source from the organizers of the World Business Forum (WBF), an event he attended in the country’s capital, told CNN En Español.
If you learned everything about blockchain tech from social media I can see why you’d think that but man I’ve getting tired of ignorant misinformation posting on reddit all the time.
A quote:
Last year, he revealed the launch of his first new business since Apple in 1976 – Efforce – a new online platform empowered by blockchain technology that allows contributors to benefit from and trade the energy savings generated by energy efficiency projects worldwide in a tokenised fashion with $WOZX.
It also has an associated nft that allows people to fund and invest directly into new energy projects. It’s down because basically everything is down, it’s a bear market and this company is still new and growing.
I’m sure I’ll get downvoted by the circlejerkers anyway but I’m tired of people just posting these misinformed ignorant lies and getting no push back with actual facts and reality-based opinions.
I met him waiting in line for a concert. He was so incredibly nice. Answered all the geeky questions I had took pics with anyone who wanted. Was super super friendly/nice. I’ve met a ton of celebrities gotta say he was probably the nicest one.
Not occupational. A family member is famous so I’ve met people through him. Plus I used to be really into a band I’d go see and sneak backstage and meet lots of celebrities at their la shows. Plus lots of other random encounters.
His biography was awesome. Random shit like building a universal remote in the 70’s to screw with people by standing outside their window and changing the channels. Awesome guy.
He seems like a really good guy, but the Woz U thing really doesn’t sit right with me. I was initially interested based on his name being attached to it, but the high pressure sales, the lack of substance, and the crazy high price really turned me off to it. I would really like to see him make some changes there, because I like the idea of it and think he had good intentions in helping create it. I don’t feel like he’s the type that’s just out for a quick buck.

Honestly this is pretty much any training of any kind for 10+ years now.
Unfortunately, having worked for Woz U when it started up, I can tell you it definitely came off as a tactic for a quick buck. Woz wasn’t involved in the curriculum, branding, or anything material to the business - it was basically a licensing deal to use Woz’s likeness. The working conditions at that business were absolutely awful, just the worst sales culture and extremely demanding on the performance side even though we kept calling the same couple hundred people per rep without getting new leads. I felt awful bothering and pressuring people to sign up, but I also really needed the income as I had just gotten laid off prior to the job. The course itself was also quite bad, having several bugs and incomplete lessons ripe with incorrect information. It was really sad, honestly, as I also thought that due to Woz’s “involvement” that the product would actually be decent quality. I was unfortunately very wrong. You dodged a billet by not going with Woz U, friend.
He’s such a wholesome person. It’s hard to put into words because it’s rare to see these days. He really, really loves technology. Super cool to talk to.
When I heard that he carried unperforated sheets of 2 dollar bills and a pair of scissors, cutting the bills out by hand to pay cashiers and that he “collects” phone numbers he finds interesting I knew I found an honest man. I may not be able to hang when it comes to talking tech but I can roll with the best of them at being eccentric.
Never have heard a bad thing about him. Hoping for the best.
He’s the antithesis of Steve Jobs
Last couple years he’s been promoting cryptocurrencies, and started his own. It’s down 99.47% currently.
That’s a shame. He of all people should know they are either scams or greater fool’s theory.

Definitely the better of the two Steves
Other than his crypto shilling.
I used the toilet stall after him one time and * he didn’t flush!*
Actually I totally made that up. Everything I’ve heard about him makes him sound awesome.
Got to meet him twice - once while filming this short documentary episode
He was the kindest person. And he showed up to the interview riding a Segway.

How have you met a ton of celebrities? Assuming it’s occupational
Not occupational. A family member is famous so I’ve met people through him. Plus I used to be really into a band I’d go see and sneak backstage and meet lots of celebrities at their la shows. Plus lots of other random encounters.
How he get so white ‘n’ nerdy?
Such a kinda and humble genius.
Is*
He always seemed like a weird, eccentric guy, and I mean that in the best way possible. Almost like a nerdy sitcom character brought to life
His biography was awesome. Random shit like building a universal remote in the 70’s to screw with people by standing outside their window and changing the channels. Awesome guy.
Yeah, I encourage everyone to read iWoz!

He sold his name and promoted a sham technical school that was trash.
