  @NilesSankey The Bungie of my memories was (as you say) a once in a lifetime confluence of people and a particular time in the world. I remember when they were a "keyword" on AOL (before AOL had full Internet access, sort of like a link) and fans were also prevalent on UseNet. This time (and the decade after) was when the fans and the devs had such tight contact that everyone was "in on the joke" when The Webmaster, Disembodied Soul or other online "persona" would rib, tease, or outright insult gamers. Not as if they were family, because they WERE family. It was great while it lasted, but things inevitably change and more and more gamers started considering themselves "customers" and that Bungie should treat them as such ("the customer is always right" mantra for example). The playful and sometimes hardcore "back and forth" went away. The tight connection between the devs and their fans became customer service interactions with consumers. People were told "It's not 2004 anymore" and the fact is that they were right. The era had passed and something new/different had replaced everything. That carefree, brave, willing to take risks, adventurous outlook of a tightly knit team isn't something that can be forced and it isn't likely to survive current-day corporate culture. It's not 1994, 2004, or even 2014 anymore. But it WAS fun!

  Bending Spoons($BSP ) is best understood as a software holding company built around recurring cash flow. Its playbook is direct: buy a digital business with proven demand, rebuild the product and cost base, improve pricing and conversion, then reinvest the cash into another acquisition. Evernote, Vimeo, WeTransfer, Remini and AOL are assets inside that operating system. The numbers make the model clear. In Q1 2026, subscriptions produced 84% of revenue, advertising 12%, and other sources 4%. Revenue grew from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, with acquisitions driving much of the increase. The figure I keep coming back to is customer tenure. In Q1 2026, 48% of subscription revenue came from customers with at least five years of tenure, including 28% from customers with at least ten. That gives Bending Spoons time to make deep changes to products it plans to own for the long run. The investment case comes down to execution: buy well, improve the asset, and compound the cash. The risk follows the same logic. Acquisition-led growth only compounds if management keeps choosing the right targets and improves them without weakening products that users already depend on.

  @Futurenvesting Well, you can be sure that any company they buy is struggling for cash or can't grow, so they buy them and having a big layoff. Some AI info Financial Impact of the Strategy Skyrocketing Revenue: Consolidated revenue surged from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, and hit $704 million for Q2 2026 alone. High Operating Margins: Their operating and adjusted profitability have expanded rapidly, with adjusted operating margins reaching 54% and operating profits more than doubling to $278 million in 2025. The Debt Trade-off: While the individual apps become profitable, the parent company funds its aggressive shopping spree (acquiring giants like Vimeo, AOL, Eventbrite, and Airtable) through heavy borrowing. This leaves them carrying billions in debt, meaning a significant chunk of their operating income goes toward servicing interest payments. The stock went public on July 1, 2026, pricing its initial public offering at $29.00 per share. It surged 40% on its first day and currently trades around $39.31. The Good: Revenue skyrocketed 126% year-over-year to $704.2 million, and adjusted earnings per share hit $0.46 (beating the $0.27 consensus). The Bad: The company’s full-year 2026 revenue guidance came in at $2.78 billion to $2.82 billion, missing Wall Street’s $2.90 billion projection. The Growth Reality: While headline growth looks massive, organic revenue growth was just 3%. Almost all of the revenue expansion is coming from bought growth—specifically the rapid fire-sale absorptions of companies like AOL, Eventbrite, and Vimeo.

  @0xljki obviously there was demand for bandwidth in '99, most people or businesses had none (this is kinda binary and you had to lay pipes throughout the whole country) operationally, this was a high margin business - you lay the pipe once (expensive capex) & but then can AOL CDs to every households, with virtually no marginal cost for addtl customer. "compute buyers have high margins" - brother what have you been smoking. xAI (admittedly now a compute seller) is losing gazillions - maybe that's why they went from buying/producing compute to selling. OAI/ANT have no published financials but spoiler, they are losing billions per year 1/2

  It is a daily barrage of fake *** accounts online that all claim to want me, up until they ask for me to install an app and talk to them about a business opportunity. I am so damn tired of this new internet. I want to go back to AOL or even Prodigy, maybe even Compuserve.
