- Comment on Vimeo is getting acquired by Bending Spoons, the parent company of Evernote 5 weeks ago:
RIP Vimeo 2004-2025
Bending Spoons works like this:
- They immediately stop any development
- They fire all the engineers because now the app is in maintenance mode
- They quadruple the subscription prices while nerfing all the free plans
- They change the license of the user generated content, so they sell it to ai bros
You got data in our servers? Pay the ransom or lose it!
Their CEO is a ruthless version of Elon musk
- Comment on xAI’s Grok suddenly can’t stop bringing up “white genocide” in South Africa 5 months ago:
Can someone explain me how xai raised so many billions that they could have purchased xitter for an even more ridiculous amount of billions?
-
They are not a public company so there’s no stock manipulation
-
They are not selling API access to the public
-
They don’t have some sort of crypto coin scam that they could print when need some cash flow
Where those billions come from? It’s just melon charging ridiculous prices to his own companies? Like if Tesla needed some sort of ai api Key they’re going to pay xai 100000% over the market value? Isn’t that illegal, money laundering or something like that?

Especially denying/deporting refugees that will otherwise be killed for having helped the American government (example: Afghanistan)
