  $BSP is a masterpiece. Just not of innovation. Working in Big Tech, you get used to seeing what actual scale and innovation look like. So watching Italy crown Bending Spoons as its great tech champion - a team that buys beloved, declining brands like AOL, Evernote, WeTransfer, and Meetup to "revive" them - has been fascinating. Their $18 billion IPO is largely deserved: they are exceptional operators. They make neglected software fast and profitable. The machine works. But there are two things you can do to a fading product. You can make it modern and profitable again - or you can make it win again, attracting new people who genuinely love it. Bending Spoons does the first brilliantly. The second, almost never. Their own SEC prospectus reveals the trick. Organic growth was 13% last year, and just 6% last quarter. Net revenue retention is 94%, meaning each cohort of users is worth less a year later, even after aggressive price hikes. This isn't a base being won back; it's a base leaking quietly, taxed harder on the way out. This is exactly why comparing them to Big Tech is so revealing. Picture $META putting WhatsApp or Instagram behind a paywall tomorrow. There would be a global uproar. Meta has the most locked-in audience on Earth, yet they refuse to charge them. Why? Because they are still chasing growth. Bending Spoons charges its captive audiences precisely because it has no growth left to protect. They execute the exact playbook that would make Meta a supervillain, but on smaller apps with weaker exits - and we call it genius. The reviled villain treats its users better than the celebrated innovator. A true maker earns its price by building something genuinely better; you pay because you want to stay. Bending Spoons didn't build these products; braver people did. They buy them when they are loved and hard to quit, and turn them into extraction machines. They are professional converters of makers into takers. Charging people because they want to stay makes everyone richer. Charging them because they can't leave just moves money from users to shareholders. One is a gain for the world. The other is a transfer. And every switch they flip is one more bill on people already drowning in subscriptions, asked to pay again for what they once had free. Of course, the business works. Rent extraction is the safest business on earth: low risk, fast payback, nothing to invent. But compare that to actual innovation. Whatever you think of Elon Musk, he took real risk on things that didn't exist yet: Tesla forced open the EV industry, SpaceX made rockets reusable, and each time the rest of the world had to follow. He earned his success by growing the pie; Bending Spoons pours the same ingenuity into nag screens and cancellation mazes, carving up a pie someone else baked. Let's not call a toll booth a cathedral. Celebrate rent-collection as innovation, and we teach our best makers to optimize the past instead of building the future.

  I like that you can ask AI for video game cheat codes and if a guy ever gets ***** or not. It makes me feel like a child on AOL again. Looking up gamefaqs while saying SlipknotFan42 has never kissed a girl French style

  @Gpersonobserver @woofknight You're old. 😬 I missed the AOL address (could had have one, but didn't), never used a water bed or paper mat (what was that for???) and had no checkbook (paid mostly cash).

  Soph asked not to let the female that requested time to join have any contact. She’s a cam trail they employ to try to thieve come on, aol block: trap mac Lip her out of any service she may have wined her self into when she made out she wanted to switch sides and isolate anyone that worked a connector with. If she’s gen she will manoeuvre into a pos we can see she’s gen if she isn’t she wouldn’t risk putting herself there in the first place. Def o and deaf dumb and blind and attempt to limo to hit was worked from grok so we need to focus efforts to investigate the mill taps working through x social dig as a priority They haven’t got a mitt up df from what I can see as Eleanor and Rosso and cheap mill cook muk was attempted to be positioned to cover assault surf And we know they tried to swing a surf to try to put a come on in a brad Pitt to obstruct him helping. So isolate a few things out of there so we can reposition. As for the fight club. I’m done, guys so anyone in our side of chat know, we are definitly turning a table to couple deck elsewhere for a while. Mug any male his mark up worked with Matt and ghost the lot of them. We will set up a swing surf just wait for instruction

  @woofknight 19. Only one I’m missing is the AOL address - I never used AOL despite them sending me many complementary disks, I was into weirder and more obscure BBSes.

  @LegionHoops Tim never played in a finals game. Maybe he should have done an aol chat room or something

  @KrisPatel99 Nothing. It's desperation as they lose valuable advertising $ from teens no longer using the service. The age of fake ai may be the new turn just like how AOL and Myspace once ruled
