The founders are the villains of this piece as much as Krafton. They sold out for a big payday. This was all very predictable.
You’d have to really dense to think that Krafton is going to come along with half a billion dollars and just let things carry on as usual.
They think they’ll be the ones ordering the executions.
“Mysterious”? It’s eight there in the name.
I clicked on a few links. I got X, BlueSky and FaceBook.
WTF is even the point of this? Is it just affiliate links? It has fuck all to do with Ulysses or James Joyce.
EDIT: Oh, you have to pay to add a link. So, it’s an ad that no one will use. Got it.
I hate everything about this house and this picture.
Starting with why the fuck would have a driveway that big for a house that size? You’d expect it on a house 5x that size.
… pay packages of up to $300 million over four years, with more than $100 million in total compensation for the first year…
He’s really just creating the next generation of tech bros. This is how they reproduce. Someone drops a huge sum of money in their laps for being smart in a niche computer field. That money balloons their egos to the point of making them think they are smart at all the things. And, voilà, a techbro is born. The misogyny, racism and infatuation with eugenics comes naturally after that.
ACE is more like a franchise than other retailers. Most are locally-owned. Some are employee-owned.
And how did they get what looks like pirated movie links onto IMDB?
It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out. Hopefully, it becomes a big thorn in Putin’s side. No sympathy for the Kadyrovs, though.
unrelated: my favorite Ramzan Kadyrov video. Sums up this guy pretty well.
The one thing that the last bombing achieved was to show everyone the limits of the bunker busters. To paraphrase one pundit, it’s cheaper to dig and build deeper than it is to make a bomb that can blow up things further underground.
Is that supposed to be a goatee on his chin?
I see Dr. Evil mixed with Alfred E. Neuman.
So, they want to take away healthcare young men don’t have so they’ll get jobs that don’t exist. Sounds like a conservative plan.
I thought it was obvious it was a joke. 🤷♂️
… didn’t stop to think if they should.

Negatively: Almost any clothing with more than a couple words of text.
Clothing with a prominent brand.
Clothing with right-wing political connotations.
Dyed blonde hair or hair dyed brown/black that should, obviously, be gray.
Tramp stamps. Japanese writing tattoos on non-Japanese. Face tattoos. Neck tattoos. Tattoos of pop culture themes.
Expensive cars. Dodge pickup-trucks. Harley Davidson motorcycles. Dodge Chargers. Teslas.
Police officers.
Positively: Normal clothing. Well-dressed but obviously not expensive clothing. ‘Funky’ style clothing. Clothing that would just look stupid on me.
Wildly dyed hair. Subtlety dyed hair that isn’t covering something up.
Tattoos that are, at least, fairly unique.
Glasses. (I don’t know, I’m prejudiced for people with glasses.)
Old women.
I could probably come up with a lot more. We’re all prejudiced in some way. It’s the things that we’re prejudiced about and how attached we are to those prejudices that define us.
Send me your game development company and I’ll double it! See my bio for details. You must follow the instructions exactly or you won’t get anything.
They literally sold out. They sold the company. And, they sold it to a corporation whose portfolio is littered with microtransactions.
What losses? Were they not profitable?
Yeah, that’s the selling out part.
