I can't say I agree. It's more likely they see the money they'd be leaving on the table and it helps that this makes them look more amiable for future acquisitions.

I still think it's crazy that the same guy who created Wikipedia also founded Fandom, and I believe is still involved. Considering what Wikipedia is and its utility, it almost seems like an incompatible ideology to have anything to do with both at the same time. I guess he's got to make money somehow...

This gives off Twitch Plays Pokemon energy. I love it.

I've been following this saga since the headlines were prefixed with "Teen that created the Elon private jet tracker...". I wouldn't be surprised to find out he's now been married 50 years and long-retired. I've lost track of time.

So...does this mean the cage match is still on?

Yeah the answer on Reddit is always "why not just buy the more expensive option," which is always the most upvoted and least helpful suggestion.

It's just a bummer that most tech tutorials are on there...wish we were back in the early 00s when alternatives to Youtube were still viable.

That sounds awful lol. I'm in university right now and have neglected work on any projects. I finally found something of a passion in retro game reverse engineering a few months ago and have obsessed over it. It's only one game I'm reversing though so it's likely to take me years and years before I can release anything resembling something playable.

You've now scared me into maybe working on other things too...I wonder if related projects count? A website for the project, developer tools, documentation, etc.

Last year me: I don't trust Reddit, that's why I use old.Reddit.

I was a five year old in the late 90s with zero culinary skills and too much time 😂 I remember it being my favorite snack all the way through grade school. It's actually so funny how it has been such an unintentionally suppressed memory until I saw this post.

You should try it though!

They never should have been allowed to buy it in the first place.
