They are fighting to get it back:

Also the shareholders overrode Ben and Jerry against their objections to sell. They didn’t want to. Of course they probably shouldn’t have gone public in the first place but if they hadn’t you never would have heard of them. Unless you grew up in Vermont. Like me. It was kinda weird seeing a beloved business become huge. Like watching Phish go from a local band to something giant.


Rip White Russian. I loved that. Never understood how that nasty jimmy fallon flavor still exists.


Agreed that was a good one. They used so much Kahlua that it caused the price of Kahlua liqueur to rise at liquor stores because they were buying so much of it. So they stopped the flavor.


There’s only one party fighting for things like this and they are in the minority. Funny how people that cry about politics on hacker news don’t understand how it directly affects them until their digital media is no longer their property. Sad that’s what it takes.


Flagged???


I can’t believe Nekhala managed to gross $6million on a bed scrunchy on Amazon without Chinese competitors pirating the design, even with a US patent. That in itself is a major accomplishment. At some point when progressives finally take the house perhaps we can get some real regulations in place so that someone banned from the system like this has recourse other than call tree AI.


I’ve been on macOS since 2012 and only have to restart during Os updates. What is this person on about? Slow news day? Clickbait? I was clearly baited.


That’s it??? With all the corruption he has visibly demonstrated and his long list of boot licks I would have expected 10x that.


He's extremely corrupt, but not actually that good at making money and never has been.


Don't underestimate it. His net worth increased more from crypto in the past 2 years than it did in 30 years of being a new york real estate nepo baby, when his net worth basically treaded water


This is just what’s known, now. Actual amounts could easily be 10/20x or more.


That’s just what was officially disclosed.


I play on an 8 year old MacBook Pro and with 10k logistics bots it still has smooth graphics and zaro boogs. It reminds me of how good blizzard was in the 90s.


My god why are you so willfully ignorant of the fact that guns were present. Just stop talking if you’re going to play dumb or are dumb.

It's not other people's job to jump through hoops to meet your chosen metric, apparently defined in ignorance of the facts. The crowd left the Capitol because Trump eventually put out a video statement telling his supporters to go home, well after the Senate chamber had been evacuated and taken over by rioters.

Testimony from within the White House indicates a large number of people worked to persuade him to issue such a statement, perhaps convincing him that he would not have the support of many cabinet members of aides otherwise. We can only speculate on what might have happened if he had told his supporters to stand their ground.


I agree but trump pardoned 1600 of them! Sucks? I agree.
