That's not what Grandfathered means. Basically, original subscribers are being forced onto a new contract.

'Microsoft, the company that allowed the app to bypass its gatekeepers, was surprised by getting caught in the act and now promises to come up with an excuse that shifts the blame away from them as soon as possible.'
Calling the stage units prototypes is being nice. The reality was that at that point the iPhone had barely gotten to a proof of concept stage. Months before this event, the developers were still using a giant desktop tower to simulate the phone's hardware.
That the photos of the phone were real and not concept art, that the stage units weren't just unusable rubber dummies was a magic trick itself.
When the developers revealed years later that the iPhone presentation (just the presentation, not even the actual launch) was a make or break moment for the company, they absolutely were not kidding.
And then they went from "should not even be working" test units to fully functional production units in six months!
Whatever your opinion of Jobs or Apple, credit where credit is due.

I remember the mini-war between AOL and third-party IM clients. There were days where AOL would send 15kB patches to AIM multiple times a day to break compatibility with the other apps. And they would then fix it within hours.
In the end, AOL gave up.
Back in the good ol' days where you were committed to a mental institution if found masterbating.

Every warning in pop culture (1984, Starship Troopers, Robocop) has been misinterpreted as a framework upon which to nail the populous to.
My personal favorite is the Christmas decoration wars.
Since Minecraft is one of the rare birds that you buy once and own forever (I paid $20 in 2011 while it was still in alpha beta, and I've been playing on that $20 ever since), it's outstanding that profits are still trending upwards.
Mojang could have moved to a subscription model, but they didn't. They could have stopped work on Minecraft years ago and charged $80 for Minecraft 2, but they didn't. Let us count our blessings.
Star Trek predicts another future technology; the isolinear chip.
Add: And the chips used on the original series were opaque, but roughly the same size.

I've been using Safari exclusively since 2013, completely sidestepping all of this drama. I haven't seen an ad on YouTube in several years. I also haven't seen any hint of YouTube blocking my access to videos.
But for everyone who needs Windows, and the growing number of Linux users, FireFox seems like the only democratic option left.
If you draw a danger mustache, you have exactly three seconds to also draw an ill-fitting bowler hat.
.mkv files are just containers with a bunch of separate files inside. You can theoretically hide any kind of file inside, including an executable, so it might just be a blanket warning.

Several years ago, before COVID, the Japanese government was on high alert because someone parked a drone on the roof of the Prime Minister's office. Small traces of (harmless) radiation were detected on the drone and no one knows who put it there or why.
I know this is serious but I can't help but hear cartoon bonk noises every time I watch the video.
Also, if you played the GameCube at all, you hear that cube walking across the screen every... single... TIME!
