"Musk said the iPhone-maker won't disclose why it is making the threat."
So, you cannot really jump to this conclusion just yet, which was already a stretch.

That's fine if this is 100% investment. But to Cameron this is also a passion project, which will likely also happen to make him more money than any of us will see in our lifetime, even if it's considered barely successful by blockbuster standards.

"Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no."

Instead of taking gobs of profits to expand and monopolize, how about turning some of that profit into dividends? You've won the "growth" game.. time to grow up.

I've been trolling for the past month with Left leaning content. Still haven't been banned. Still might happen, but I haven't seen it personally yet. But hot damn that place is a cesspool.

So, they gave us back what they once took away. I have to assume that there will just be another rug pull.

Kids didn't typically wander Into a speakeasy. Roblox is aimed at kids, primarily. It should all start with parental controls. As a parent who works with tech, I found these incredibly frustrating, and inadequate. No way to white-list particular games, no way to prevent strangers from sending friend invites, although we can block chat. And even when the available controls are used, the experience is terrible for the children. They see a list of games that are unfiltered, and there is no indication whether or not they will be allowed to play. Not until they try to join the server, wait for the loading screen and get an "insufficient permissions" error. This happens to a majority of the games. Most of these issues can be fixed with money. I don't have the impression that they care to do that. It's a wild west.

In the very least, the sentence should be whatever it would be for say, falsely imprisoning someone in your basement for whatever the duration of the victims sentence was.

You cannot throw a company in prison. But these crimes are not committed by some amorphous entity. There are people at the helm and they need to be held accountable.

This was my first thought. Ticks are, by design, supposed to be fairly stealthy. Not all bites become apparent. I'm not sure if there is a peer reviewed study on the 36 hour rule of thumb, which is not likely an absolute. But anecdotes are not counter-evidence.

Yeah. I mean this is reasonable and accurately describes the point of the original post. But how can you compete with backslashdot's angry old man rant? I mean, it mentions Nazis... and Nazis BAD mmmkay? so therefore it wins, regardless of whether it addresses the point of the original post.

If I re-install my PC do I still have the lifetime license? If I upgrade to a new desktop, can I carry this with me?

That's the price of 10 Twitters!

Yeah. This blog post shows a lot of naivete. The word "haggard" was the first clue. For most engineers that have to hold down the fort for aging software:
  - a sunset is welcome, engineers prefer to create new things. They are not mindlessly drawn to complexity the way the blogger insists.
  - old software stays around because it's low maintenance. It might be crappy, but old bugs have been seasoned away. So there are few bugs. The difficulty comes in expanding the functionality for new use cases. That's when old software becomes maintenance Hell.
  - Old systems hang around not because of some crazy gate-keeping mentality, but because of a lack of resources. Again. Most good engineers welcome the shake-up because it brings in new resources
