If he gets $223M a year for being a detriment to society, I should be getting at least $446M for being relatively neutral.

Making money by destroying/burying digital media. What a backwards world we live in…
This practice feels like something that should be illegal. Effectively it is destroying art that hundreds or thousands of people worked hard to make, for the sake of fiddling the books of the owning company that commissioned it.
If you “write it off” to be worth zero, it should either become freely available abandonware, or can be claimed as the intellectual property of those that worked on it. Otherwise it is evident that there is some value to be had and therefore tax fraud to claim it has none.
I think the point is: this publisher in particular is a piece of shit. Pushed out the original creators and stole the IP effectively.
I Googled them because I was interested. The answer is yes.
Sony failed to sue them, hoping to force them to block copyright breach adjacent DNS resolvers. That feels like a badge of honour.
Then it’s certainly not overpriced!
Well the upside to that is they can’t possibly be an intimidating presence.
Why is there a ladder going up to a tiny door on the second floor? Elf house? John McClane entrance?

Just because the human race not currently at risk of imminent extinction from it doesn’t mean it’s not still a serious illness. Some people get long term complications from it. Some people are extra vulnerable to it. Some people are still dying from it.
“Just get the vaccine” is the worst kind of uninformed handwaving response to the concerns and worries of other humans, it’s upsetting it is becoming the norm.
So what you’re saying is, it’s double hipster
They don’t live off grass but long grass is great cover for them to move freely. My lawn is pretty wild, but I have to mow directly around the house otherwise mice and all sort of insects start taking up reaidence in the house.
He sold over $2mil, so maybe about $20k is fair.
Yes. Well, some saying we shouldn’t tax billionaires more and others saying that the money is better off with one private individual setting up companies and charities, rather than leaving that to governmental entities.
To me, someone paying only ~25% tax when earning millions per year is obscene.
All Rockstar Games ever have been pushed back by months or years. They have all had monolithic levels of crunch. People not working in the office is definitely not to blame. Particularly if they were hired as offside, which the article claims.
