      Read your own link. There’s nothing resembling a contract here, and even your own link says this doesn’t apply given the amount of money involved.

      Sit down.

        since discovering that you can ctrl+v images directly into a Lemmy comment, paint.net has pretty much become an extension of my vocabulary lol.

    Billion dollars would cover all the costs of wikipedia for almost a decade, a year of dickipedia would be a very small price to pay.

  It’d be for 1 year minimum. And of course it is legally binding, these are the terms. Generally speaking, the only things that are not legally binding are contracts that involve illegal activity or contracts with a minor. Everything else can be enforced.

    So what you’re saying is that, no, that tweet alone is not legally binding.
