they could just go for googol dollars
Comedy gold.
Wonder if this is just the website not being able to cut the number in half, or whether they did this on purpose
I feel like its on purpose but i also feel like web designers are often incompetent with stuff like that. So im undecided.
Maybe the boss said, “Remove wordwrap in headline text for this post.”
Or do. It’s not like people care if he breathes.
And the fact that Google didn’t pay them more money than exists in the world will be why Russia blocks Google’s operations in the country and seizes every bit of property they can get their hands on that they say was even vaguely related to Google’s operations. They didn’t even bother with a realistic number, because in the end they don’t really care who does or doesn’t believe them.
Maybe they meant rubles. I think I may find that value in my couch.
I was going to say Russia must love humiliating themselves but I guess this is painfully obvious the past 2 years
Google would therefore have to find more money than exists on Earth to pay Moscow
Well to be fair, I do think it’s plausible that one day Google will indeed control all the money in the world.
What’s that number in words? Sure. I could use Google, but they just got fined by Russia for $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 so can they really be trusted?
Being fined by Russia is actually a positive stamp of approval in my book!
20 Decillion
2 x 10^34 for those people who like to use numbers to represent numbers in a sane way.
What’s that number in words?
Per the article, it’s 20 decillion.
They know this is impossible - even with their worthless currency. I guess they will soon provide their own services or they will revoke internet access from their citizens.
It is not only more Rubles than currently exists, but more money than currently exists in any currency 😂
What you don’t need Google to access internet
Yes, but users with basic knowledge don’t even get the difference between a web browser and a search engine. Shutting down Google seems like a perfect “simple” explanation for a general digital lockdown.
You’re describing users without basic knowledge.
