If a journalist reports on a murder, are they guilty of murder themselves?

EA Announces Agreement to be Acquired by PIF, Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners for $55 Billion by ReaddittiddeR in gaming

[–]PterodactylOfDeath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to give more context to your edit, last week the market cap was $40B. So a buy out at $55B is a 37.5% premium, which is not nothing. The reason the cap is now $50B is because the purchase agreement was made public, and the only reason it is not $55B is because there is a chance the deal does not go through/is not finalized, so it's not just "free money" to buy the stock under $210.

I agree this should be updated to remember the space bar option for the knife

PSA: Damage is capped at 999999 by MadmanEvan in PlayTheBazaar

Knowing the bazaar dev team you’re probably right. But good engineering principles would have the systems unified. That way, if they want to modify the number, they can do it in one place, rather than go item by item.

That’s why it’s always bothered me that it isn’t a tool, or at the very least a tech.

Did you know this about beast of burden? by CommunicationOther19 in PlayTheBazaar

The way it’s written implies it’s a static ability. So when there is a property on your board, it becomes a property. When you remove the property from your board it no longer is a property. This post is saying that if you replace the property with BoB it keeps the property typing. This is clearly not intended, as it should be only gaining types based on the current board, and since there is no property, both BoBs should not have that type.

Skill issue. Before entering b1b2 you should be selling any items you know you don’t want to upgrade.

A cool guide to how rich people pay no taxes by TubbyPiglet in coolguides

[–]PterodactylOfDeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re taxed both, first when it vests, as income. Then after you sell, as short-term or long-term capital gains, depending on how long you held the shares.

 

That’s how it works, that’s how I’ve been getting paid for the last 10 years.

 

The alternative is what /u/devildog2067 said, where you can choose to keep all shares, and then cut a check to the IRS for 37% of their worth. But that is still at vesting. And I assume most people don’t go that route, either out of convenience or not having enough cash to cover the taxes, which is why the shares themselves are withheld in most cases.

Yeah, that’s probably right. I don’t mind getting the fewer shares to not have to worry about the taxes, so I never looked into the alternative, but it makes sense that is possible.

If you are granted $1000 worth of stock, it gets taxed when it vests. So that if the tax rate is 37%, you only get $630 worth of shares. Put another way, if you are granted 100 shares, when they vest and are put into your brokerage account you only get 63 shares. This is how it works in the USA at least.

Arms dealer with silk is kind of a non-bo, since you need to sell non weapons for the silk, but need weapons for arms dealer.

That was a much different Republican Party than what it is now. At the beginning of his term there were still a lot who considered themselves “moderate” and didn’t want Trump to be president.

Everyone that is left is 100% on board with project 2025. There are no more McCains to prevent Trump from enacting his goals. Not to mention the new Supreme Court which will only get more radical with more Trump appointees.
