- toomuchtodo 2y agoThere is a lot of road between "reasonable return on capital invested" and "we are going to rake you over the coals so badly people are going to publicly flee to not be captive to us."
- rad_gruchalski 2y agoWell, it’s Broadcom and they just spent the money so they want some back. It’s like IBM: acquire and rake. Hey IBM employees, it doesn’t matter how upset you get. It is what it is.

- burnte 2y agoNo one said it wasn't obvious, we're saying spending almost $70bn on a company and announcing that the only way you can make it back is by squeezing 10x more out of the big fish, that might not have been smart.
- rad_gruchalski 2y agoApparently they are known for that so I'm not sure why acting surprised.
