if you assume typical stock market returns, ~$2M is enough to retire on and live on $100k a year of interest gained alone.

Six months??? What does "comply" mean? Ship a version of the OS that supports all these new features? Or begin implementation of them? Six months is barely enough time for companie…

it's already hell, who cares.

The site and search eventually work, but the torrents themselves do not download and do not appear to have all necessary magnet information in the links. So the downloads just hang…

No I don't think so. A ~$37 price tag for CCIV would translate to ~$60B Lucid valuation. I'll buy in if it gets close to that tomorrow (I expect it will) https://www.youtube.com/wa…
