But I don’t mind people talking to me so how do others differentiate us?

Noted. If we ever see you we’ll ignore you.
Just post your name and photo so we know what you look like. Thanks.
Im going to ask an LLM to write me a manifesto and pick a target.
Man if ChatGPT did this they would be showing me guns and the home address of Nigel Farage 😂
Yup I added an edit. LBOs should be illegal man. Just search how many companies have been bought like this and then driven out of business.
Depends. This is a leveraged buyout and there are countless examples of other companies bought like this and they don’t last long.
They take on massive debt to buy it. Then they shift that debt to the company they bought and away from the individuals. Then that company is crippled paying down interest so they can’t innovate (not that EA did), then they’ll have to cut costs and the product will diminish. Likely pay out billions in dividends to the buyers can make profit and in 5-10 years EA will go bust or get sold again.
The banks will be left holding the bag, but probably covered their loses by that time so can write off the rest of the debt.
Yup. Or Toys R Us, or Debenhams (UK), or any other number of LBOs which led to the death of the company.
Hopefully it’s a leveraged buyout and this is the death of EA.
Edit: Haha I clicked the link and it really is an LBO.
I would never lack at someone for not knowing something.
Where are you based? Happy to help you when I have some free time.
There are plenty of resources online, but to get started I would go the easy route that I went and use docker.
Look to set up an “arr” stack. Make sure you have it set up gluetun and link to a VPN.
Essentially, you’ll buy a VPN connectio. Ensure this has P2P and Port Forwarding support.
You then set up docker in a way that first connects the vpn. If the vpn doesn’t work then it won’t start the download client like qbittorrent.
If you wait until after work I can share my docker compose file to give you an idea, but honestly if you’re somewhat capable with a keyboard then you can google you’re way to getting set up.
It’s cool.
I’ve never really understood it either to be honest. I’ve gravitated to solo sports and more admiration at the ability than the winning per se.
I’m from Manchester, UK, so been around a lot of Irish people. Had a lovely time in Port-Stewert once. (Port-Stewart?) At the same time I’ve put countless hours into Minecraft, Factorio, Running, or climbing and people wonder why.
Which is random? I’ve only not heard of three: Instructure, fanduel, and chime.
All the ones I’ve heard of are quite massive companies and I would assume the others are too.
