we need Nelson MandEULA to decide if its deadNelson MandEULA posted:blackberry is dead when i say its dead. post various definitions of rim death and i'll pick the one that makes the most sense. does anyone have the definitions of dead from the original thread? i think blackberry has died previously when they stopped building phones themselves but idk what the official yospos rules are on this

i need to find the thread, but if your company is pivoting from rimm blackberries (hardware cellphone + os) to rimm blackberry farms (an amusement park, or actual farm) it should count sega still makes and publishes video games

companies rarely die completely, often they end up being a mailbox in a law firm somewhere after years of shrinking. we have to draw the line somewhere, and the number one smartphone maker in the world circa 2007 stopping making phones entirely seems like a pretty good place to do it.

ah, so it was an illuminati conspiracy that made their products suck rear end for over a decade also ignoring the fact that they handed over their encryption keys to any government that asked and i'm willing to bet their one and only DC in waterloo has been compromised to hell and back by state sponsored actors
