Normally "revenue vs profit" would be the missing link here. You make 6 billion, but pay out 5 billion. Total net is 1 billion. Getting 8x your yearly profit for your business is a reasonable price.

With onlyfans, they take a 20% cut, so the numbers above basically line up. They got paid 1.2 billion, and probably spent 200 million on operations as a giant video/media host.

I don't know anyone at all who pays the use tax. I entirely forgot it was a thing.

It's basically on the north side of the river that is the border between the states. Think 5min drive to enter the state, another 5-10min to Portland.

Vancouver, Washington. Its at the very south of Washington state, just a few minutes drive from the Oregon border and Portland. It's almost intentionally confusing.

Because Washington has no state income tax but does have a high sales tax and Oregon has no sales tax, but a high income tax, its a "no taxes" hack to live in Vancouver, then work and shop in Oregon. Its also a dick move, as you get to Oregon across these large, expensive bridges you pay literally $0 dollars to maintain.

You basically leech off two states resources while paying very little into their coffers.

Microsoft confirmed to The Verge that it has implemented some form of email changes to reduce “politically focused emails” inside the company.

Geoguesser devs opted to work with Saudi Arabia against its communities wishes. The community, who produce most of the content for the game and have full rights to it, have opted to revoke that content. By doing so, they hope to make the devs realize through economic pressure that they should opt out of this event.

If I loan you my work and labor out of goodwill and you opt to dash that goodwill, then you lose my work and labor. I believe the ancient tomes call this "fuck around and find out."

Seems very reasonable and straight forward.

"No justice, no peace" isn't a slogan. It's a cause and effect.

Androids RCS and most apps also work over wifi.

Metalheads: look like the bottom, act like the top

Vates is pretty chill, as is clear in the article. I think your point is well said, but Vates likes the "vibe" of FOSS, and is willing to take a bit on the chin to keep that energy internally. A bit of "turn the other cheek." They also clearly enjoyed the whimsy and just straight panache of being ripped off in this manner for a while. Their company is doing well and growing rapidly from an excellent product, so I doubt the money mattered much.

Well, even Jesus started kicking ass at one point with the money lenders. It looks like they are getting there now.

Get a wireless charger if your phone supports it. It will likely be slower, but still work.
