I assumed it was a shitpost, instead it is a real tweet. What a time to be alive.
Jokes aside the only real reason I can fathom for the collectibles company to call their mother is because they had used it as the contact number in the registry. I would be surprised if this was some kind of intimidation tactic instead of just miscommunication - in the sense they probably just wanted to legally intimidate the itch's owner not their immediate family. They are not 2K ^/s^.
What will happen to itch.io when the British get rid of their overseas Indian Ocean territory? Can they keep the .io Top Level Domain?
Once the treaty is signed, the .io cctld will phase out over 5 years.
Unless ICANN get greedy and grant an exemption.
for once I hope that you do get greedy 
Could Mauritius choose to keep .io? The income it would bring in would probably be bigger than their GDP.
Nope. They already have .mu
Yeah but they UK has like 5 other domains besides .io
ccTLDs are based on the ISO two letter country codes - it's deferring the responsibility for cleaning up the British mess to ISO
But why did the Indian ocean territories ever have an ISO country code, they were never a country? It doesn't make sense that a territory should lose its TLD just cause it changes countries.
Half grandfathered in from a period when UK was a commonwealth, and ANZAC were not technically independent.
ISO-3166-1 has a lot of "countries" that aren't actually independent - but useful to have codes for because they are geographically distinct.
Yes. That's not what the regulation says, but exceptions are made all the time.
Couldn't they just move .io to a different category? Or are TLDs never reused once they lose their original designation?
Couldn't they just move .io to a different category?
Specifically the issue is that two letter TLDs are reserved exclusively for countries/governments. So far only one exception has been made to this rule, .su for the Soviet Union. So another exemption is certainly possible.
.su isn't an exception. The rule was created so the .su situation doesn't happen again.
As I understand it, the .su was not really an intentional exception as much as it happened before the strict rules were written down.
It is weird to imagine a world in which glasnost kept the union together and we have active .su domains around. I imagine they'd be less suspicious than .ru in our timeline but not a lot less
2 Letter TLDs are always country codes (and ccTLDs are always 2 Letters long). So moving them to another category is technically possible, but unprecedented and improbable.
They’re not just country codes, but match a list of two character country codes defined by the UN
Well Russia still kept .su after the USSR dissolved, so why not? It's a convenient source of income.
what the fuck. fucking funko pops. plastic waste
What’s funko?
Bad
Funko pop. Those weird little big headed figurines
And itchio? Some game thing right?

Thank you
soon to be on clearance everywhere due to tanking sales.
it seems like they've always been on clearance everywhere. they must be insanely cheap to produce
I do NOT get these things. They have creepy beady eyes an the nature of the product limits opportunity for details and distinction so they all look pretty generic! You might even NEED the box to tell you what it is. Soulless garbage being mass produced for landfills and seemed to outwear their welcome at least 5 years ago..
Plus they’re too breakable. My kids have a few and they break if you knock them off a table
For real? I assumed they were tough from how chunky they were. What trash.
Pretty sure they're just slightly higher quality 3D printed vinyl figures. Probably cost pennies to make.
lol higher quality?
I mean, yeah compared to what a lotta people can make with many commercial printers.
My favourite is seeing the ones that end up at Dollarama, last time it was a whole shelf of Marvel's Eternals and Shazam Fury of the Gods
I've seen stores with walls of funko pops on display. I've never seen stores with gaps in their walls of funko pops, or evidence that they are moving many. Were their sales ever really that great to justify the amount of inventory they've produced?
My own interest has only gotten as far as "Oh hey, I recognize that character. Yep, they've got a bunch of Naruto characters, or at least generic funko pops with clothing like those characters wear. I wonder what else this store has."
Precious Moments for nerds.
Plastic waste for everyone else.
That's a very good description.
Funkon deez nuts
Mom mom Mom m...
Om mom mom mom Mom mom Mom, mom mom THERE'S NO LIMIT
On nom nom
Mom mom mommy mommy mommy mom mom. Mom. Mom. Mommy.
Can I just point out this was standard practice for debt collectors like 15 years ago? Seriously they'd try to call your job, your family, neighbors and if they could, even friends to harass you to collect on the debt they bought rights to collect.
