“As a taxpayer, I’d prefer them to continue in a career subsidized by taxpayer dollars than to enter into a career that would place them in a significantly higher tax bracket.”

Lol..taxpayers already pay for all service members education....

I’m guessing you don’t know any service members.

Because there is more recruiting value in having an established celebrity athlete in uniform than a physically gifted grunt. This is super simple dude.

They are far more useful to the military by playing sports and being propaganda than they are as junior officer number ten thousand and seventy-two.

Same reason why the Military shows commercials during sporting events. It’s positive advertisement for whichever branch the player is a member of. If they have a service member playing in a game and it’s constantly mentioned whenever the player is shown on the screen that does more for the military than family

Maybe if you’re making a fan game and knowingly infringing on someone else’s intellectual property you shouldn’t release information that would incriminate yourself. Like, don’t shoot the messenger here. Kotaku’s job is to talk about game-related news that we, their readers, will want to hear about. Their job is not

Wow, I thought this was one of those classic Deadspin comments where you write a meandering, turgid paragraph and then land the punchline, but you actually meant everything you wrote. Fuck man, kudos.

The furor over Kotaku covering fan games has me picturing a single computer at Nintendo HQ with Kotaku as the only bookmark, going by how some folks are treating this notion

Even with all the loopholes they’ve probably got, the taxes on their signing bonus probably covers what we shelled out to put them through an academy.

I understand you want to wash your hands of blame, but what purpose does continually pointing these out serve? These projects exist for a while, sometimes years under the radar (some of which literally don’t release anything), Kotaku posts and seemingly within days they’re gone. But yeah, no correlation. All for some

He’s working extremely hard. He’s in good shape. His weight is good. His overall body-fat percentage is very good. So, if you look at him, you say, “Wow, he looks great.”

I am with you that people need to try to forget his draft history and just see if he can develop, but as far as the Magic are concerned, his draft status is crucial because it determined his contract. He’s due almost ten million this year, and then has a team option for almost 13 next year. Not saying he isn’t

Ah, “He’s doing well”, the sports version of “They were productive talks.” 

Magic’s duty to either cut bait and put a merciful end to Fultz’s comeback attempts

Yeah, the space trucking job sounds like something I’d be into.

There are anti gank communities in high sec that actively defend ganked freighters with no expectations of pay. 

Robbed blind by goons, goes to work for them, gets robbed blind again twice by goons, stays with goons.

As required by law, I must once again state how much I wish I had time to play this game, as even the more menial jobs sounds like a lot of fun.

The real eve heroes.  I remembering hiring red frog. Process was easy and cheap. They do a job that most people refuse to do.
