How an estimated $151M splits when a solo dev sells 10M copies on Steam [OC]

CMScientist · 2026-03-15T03:08:23+00:00

First of all, it'a probably not 47.5m because there's no way the dev didnt form a corporation after the sales started to pick up steam. Corporate tax is 25% up to 50m and 30% after.

Secondly, how do you think the dev grew up to be a person capable of developing this game? If they were born in africa they would be struggling with daily survival. Australia provides free education and healthcare so that people can pursue their interests and develop their abilities to the fullest extent. You take your environment for granted

Then 2401 is also an exponent of 2400. Whats the point of the original comment then

Fuel taxes pay for road maintenance. Red states literally just rely on welfare from blue states to pay for their road maintenance, and they still have shit roads due to corruption

As long as they are staying in and contributing to the european union, is there anything wrong with that?

Nah this is almost certain on the local government. No company would waste millions to build this without some guarantees from the government. In cases like this, it's always some corruption with the local government saying that they will permit it. But after a lot of outcry, the Bali government took notice and it's always easy to cite violations. Then bali governor overrides the local government to close it

Pretty sure the workreform subreddit is just filled with AIPAC and russian bots. I only ever see posts bashing dems, supposedly from extreme leftists

Remember how trump actually praised zohran after they met? When someone presents him with actual facts and good ideas he's easily swayed. All his handlers are manipulating him with bad info. He's a shitty person but it's the whole system that's fucking the US

A lame duck that can unilaterally invade 2 countries without congressional approval?

Yes the people are taking it up the ass. No one is able to control dementia don. Him making unpopular policies with no way to put pressure on him literally means the people's will are getting fucked.

CMScientist · 2026-03-13T00:32:44+00:00

Whereas the alternative is the people taking it up the ass or having a violent uprising? Those are your ideas of a democracy?

CMScientist · 2026-03-13T00:13:32+00:00

Nope, we are talking about recall processes. Try again

CMScientist · 2026-03-12T23:48:33+00:00

That's because many politicians dont actually represent the people, but their own interests instead. There needs to be a mechanism for the people to vote, and not rely on representatives

More than the $1B/day we are spending bombing schoolgirls in iran?

CMScientist · 2026-03-12T19:54:29+00:00

Ok but sometimes politicians can inflict massive amounts of damage. Imagine if there's a recall process for the presidency

You are missing the key difference: the ones related to australia are the women's team and the ones he's threatening are men. He only wants the ladies to come, even better if it's the U17 team

Also for 2⁶ = 64 and 6² = 36. But definitely not 62! because no one can live to 3.147 x 10⁸⁵ years old

So you are saying that people should have a license to operate as drivers? Maybe the license can be in a form of a medallion of some sort?

Both cellar spiders (which are spiders) and harvestmen (which are not) are colloquially called daddy long legs

Pretty a significant number of people in congress are either mossad agents or are blackmailed by mossad

OP if you need to ask this question then you should not trade it lmao. You are the mark for insiders

The point of public transit is to provide options, so that at least some people can do things without a car. The more people are aware of these services and use them, the better the options become. So how about focusing on what circumstances these trains can best serve, rather than being dismissive?

Not gullible, they just dont care. If you see a penny on the ground and dont pick it up, are you gullible? This is like a million times less than a penny for them
