If Mir Hits The Target, Free Tacos For Everyone
from the the-end-of-an-era dept
When I started Techdirt back in 1997, the joke was always that there was at least one Mir mishap to report each week. Now Mir is finally being destroyed, and everyone wants in on the action somehow. The following was found over at GeekPress and is funny enough that I'll break my "no press releases" rule for Techdirt. Taco Bell has put a floating target in the water for Mir to try and hit. If it does hit it, everyone in the US will get a coupon for a free taco. Take a look at the picture of the target.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
