They didn’t even fail, the company was intentionally brought to the edge of bankruptcy by taking out huge loans it could never hope to repay so they could fund bigger dividends. Then the people responsible got nice big payouts as they walked away.

I think Hamas treats Palestinians wore than Israel treats Palestinians,
In 12 months, Israel has killed 40,000+ Palestinians, more than a third of those have been children.

What’s your point? The term Nazi no longer specifically refers to someone who is a member of a now defunct political party in Germany, but anyone who has those values, commits those crimes or shares those views.
So by a more modern definition of Nazi, Stalin and Beria were Nazis.
You’re arguing semantics as if it somehow excuses Israeli war crimes and crimes against humanity which they are definitely committing or depending on how strict your definition of genocide is, they may also be committing.

How about ethno-fascist gleefully watching and cheering as babies get bombed.
And no this doesn’t mean I endorse Hamas or Hezbollah

The roundabout is superior in every way to the traffic light controlled “intersection”.

- Comment on Is "disk" just a different spelling of "disc" or are they actually different words? 4 months ago:
It’s from diskette which is a portmanteau of disk and cassette which is from the early days or portable storage where cassettes were used to house disks to keep them safe from damage. For example floppy disk.
Because they form a similar job, portable storage, modern day usb pen drives and ssds are often referred to as disks.

Interesting aside. The word faggot is derived from the Latin fasces. Which was a ceremonial weapon carried by the preatorian guard. Which is where the term fascism also is derived.
Basically what I’m saying is, nazis are the faggots, not homosexuals.

- Comment on What games popularized certain mechanics? 5 months ago:
Goldeneye scheme was forward and back on the joystick moved forward and back but left and right on the stick turned the camera in that direction. The opposite movements were on the c buttons (strafe left and right and look up and down).
It was incredibly disorientating going from that to Turok which used the strafe on the c buttons and looking on the stick. It’s the same feeling I now get when I try to go back to Goldeneye now that the other orientation has been made universal.
On a side note, the goldeneye controls allowed for a unique way of moving around the map with circle strafing that you can’t really replicate in other games.

The details are too much to go into here in a simple comment. For a full investigation into Roblox check out this video by People Make Games, a games journalism site:

Essentially, Roox makes billions off the free labour of children. The entire eco system is set up to funnel kids into a cycle of consuming others content and producing their own. It’s also completely unregulated which has allowed some shady people, some of whom are, or directly work for, the owners of the platform to set up quasi developer studios where children are subjected to the same appealing treatment and exploitation of the regular games industry, while earning none of the revenue.
