    You want to hear something more ironic? The family as a whole has a ton of people in law enforcement, active and retired.

    Ha! Oh man...if these were people I didn’t like... The thing is they’re some of the most helpful I’ve ever met and have helped me out greatly since I moved to California years back, including letting me rent one of their houses from 2016-2017 at approximately half market rate because I’m...

    There’s no way they’d tell their tenants about it, someone would get pissed off and report it. I was actually shocked they even brought it up with me. I wouldn’t do it in the first place, but if I were I wouldn’t tell a damn soul about it. These people are reasonably well off as it is and...

    Yah...my dad’s company many years back when he owned one got audited, not due to any fault of his own but his in-house accounting person made some mistakes in how they were paying taxes. I was there one day when an IRS official came in with a badge and everything and wanted to talk. It was...

    Oh agreed totally on that. I have no idea how they’ve got away with it. Their daughter who I’m also friends with owns a house and an apartment in Oakland, rents them, and is doing the same thing. She’s making around $5.5k a month from those two and not paying any taxes on it, but she also has a...

    Sure it does. I asked a banker friend about it. He said the IRS does not have any mechanism to just bulk look at bank accounts and see if they match against taxes. Obviously if you get audited that’s different.

    I have some friends who own 5-6 Bay Area houses...millions of dollars in assets, and they rent them all at 3-4k a month. They get paid by check for all of them and don't pay taxes for any of them and have been doing this since the 80s. I was actually blown away when they told me this...

    Question since I don’t really know that much about crypto...it’s more or less untraceable isn’t it ? Let’s say you sold (whatever) using Bitcoin and made $100k...is there any reasonable way at all the government would even know?

    It’s not even feasible to not have a car in the Bay Area or LA. You can kinda get away with it in SF if you’re that type of person. I live in the East Bay and drive probably 100-200 miles a week just for personal stuff / seeing friends nearby.

    SPACs down today. People are saying they’ve become too popular and are getting more and more mainstream press which is causing deviation from the patterns they typically exhibit. Or that could be nonsense. Still holding all my shares of DYMD, APXT, and HCAC.

    Do you really think its release had anything to do with the end user? Those decisions are corporate, not public opinion based.

    I do not visit that thread. I don’t even follow “gaming” in general to be honest. I probably don’t even play games more than 8 hours a week. I don’t even know what Gamergate is exactly. I occasionally read about AAA titles or other interesting stuff that comes out every few years, buy them...

    Then why include them at all? Maybe people like doing things that aren’t “in the story context.” You know, because it was supposed to be a crazy advanced next gen open world.

    If you’re going to have them at all, at least get them as right as 10+ year old games. “Hurr, who cares if they half assed it.”

    Some guy on a YouTube video was pointing out how easy it is to hit 6-7k headshots within the first hour of the game or something. Seems pretty easy to gimp the game if you’re so inclined.

    More of the same complaints about the thin "open world" here with almost 700 comments, so it's definitely not just me. Or things like the AI that have been done better in 10+ year old games: This is interesting, given the great sales. As a PC user with a high-ish end system, I haven't...

    Do blades go dull or need repairing or something?

    Man these SPACs are fun to invest in. If you buy cheap I've yet to find one yet that didn't quickly go up a few bucks for quick in and out turnaround. I never hold much long term in my "play around" account so it works out. And I don't do options gambling.

    I read virtually nothing about this game. See how many posts I made in this thread prior to today. Hardly ever read it or maybe never posted in it. Making points about things you dislike is not “whining.” The only one being cringy is you for defending it so vehemently, nerd.

    Everything in reviewing a movie, TV show, piece of art, or a video game is subjective / personal preferences. Many of us thought this was going to be an uber-detailed RPG that was really heavy on RPG elements. It is not. And that's fine, it's cool, there are other games for that, I just think...

    They didn't implement those things well at all, that's the problem. So many open world games before this had cities / worlds that actually felt alive because there was so much non-static things going on you could interact with. People aren't sick of the similarities, they don't like the lack...
