In 2018, someone maintaining a ROM site was ordered to pay Nintendo $12 million.
In late 2021, someone was sentenced to 10 years of prison and to pay Nintendo $14.5 million. That person got out on good behavior last April, but 25-30% of their wages are going to be garnished until their debt to Nintendo is paid off - which will likely take the rest of their life.

I realize that I'm in the great minority of Redditors with what I learned, but my experience modding on Reddit was enough to land me a job as a social media manager for a tech company, and I've worked my way up to director of communications from that. So, I learned actual career skills from Reddit.

This is Seth's true passion project. I feel like he would make more seasons if given the chance, but with Disney looking at cuts, I fear for it.
Same reason here. I convinced both of my parents to get Chromebooks over the last few years, and the number of "service calls" I get from them have dropped drastically.
I know that Lemmy is years old, but as this is my first day on the platform, it feels like a whole new world.
Counterpoint: Wearing and maintaining a clean mask takes nearly zero effort and provides peace of mind for a lot of people.
