News broke after market close yesterday that Microsoft is acquiring Activision Blizzard.
The acquisition puts many gaming franchises into Microsoft’s hands, including Call of Duty, Warcraft/StarCraft, Diablo, Tony Hawk, Candy Crush, and many others.
In recent years, Activision has grown its revenue and is generating healthy profits: $9B a year. Globally, the gaming market will continue to expand.
Microsoft (NYSE:MSFT) is paying a premium at $95/share ($74 billion) though analysts feel the valuation is reasonable. Less cash on hand, the true price is $68 billion. Microsoft is paying for an enterprise that is making 13% on this money ($9bn a year), and that doesn’t factor in growth or eliminating redundancies.
Microsoft also has the opportunity now to leverage Activision to make Xbox-exclusive content to drive hardware sales. Even Xbox-first or Xbox-premium content will assist.
Goldman Sachs says “Microsoft stated it see opportunities to be a key player in the future metaverse era.” While the “metaverse era” is presently somewhere between a pipe dream and an acid flashback, the move does position Microsoft to instantly be a leader in gaming.
Do you still use USB thumb drives? Flash or SD or MicroSD cards? Portable hard drives?
Even in this age of ubiquitous cloud, there’s still a ton of bits and bytes being carried around in people’s backpacks, for a variety of reasons. IT folk need portable media for those crash-cart, no-network situations where they have to perform CPR on a server or switch. Others use portable drive for alternate boot environments (e.g., Bootcamp on a Mac). People working with digital media often have a “working set” of files they’re currently working on, or depending on what they’re doing they may have their entire portfolio on one volume. Some of this can be archived in the cloud but current projects sometimes demand more storage than a laptop can spare. And not everyone is in cloud all the time in all locations.
Additionally, in this era of single-card systems, Micro-SD cards are everywhere. When is the last time you backed up your Raspberry Pi? If you’re doing some work that would be painful to recreate, are you confidant that you can easily recover from a backup?
In this tutorial we’re going to show you a way to make external media backups as painless as possible. Our goal is simple: plug it into a USB interface and the backup is automated. As the user, you don’t have to do anything other than plug the device in – no running of a script or clicking a button. You plug it in, the backup happens, it goes to your cloud vault, and you’re notified when the backup is done and it’s safe to unplug.

At first, it was true love.
The storage screamed, CPUs leapt to process your commands, and the network made you feel like you were in the datacenter. You raved to your friends. You recommended…sometimes without an affiliate code even!
But then there was an outage. A double-billed invoice. You opened a ticket to ask a question and got a brusque, borderline rude response.
Soon you realized things just weren’t the same. And then one afternoon, an offer on LowEndBox caught your eye and you decided it was time to move on. Cancellation Type? Immediate. Reason for Cancellation? Don’t get me started.
So of the services you have used in the past, which of the following reasons was the cause for your breakup? Mark as many as you like, but let’s base it on your actual experiences not what you might do in a hypothetical.
What are the main things that cause a LowEndDivorce? Let’s find out!

DigitalOcean (NYSE:DOCN) shares dropped 9% today. Volume was more than double normal.
It’s been a rough season for DO. Shares today traded for as cheap as $59/share – well off the stock’s highs above $130/share only two months ago.
The reason for the plummeting valuation is not clear. Some possibilities:
