i could never morally condone piracy, especially not with windscribe a cheap and reliable VPN that's never caused any issues with IP leaking so long as you make sure the firewall is set to always on by going connection > firewall mode > always on buy now. it would be horrid

This. In an era where corporations rule every aspect of our life, own our hard work and destroy our planet, I will never understand anyone who takes a moral stand on 'stealing' from billionnaires.

IIRC the timeline is something like Notch makes a cool billion or two, gives his only friends the finger on his way out instead of sharing any of the fortune they helped him gain. Then started being a turd online to stay relevant.

Now he lives friendless and alone eating stale candy.

This is the biggest, most insanely terrible part of the whole thing. Fucker could have given all the people who had helped make minecraft (tens of) millions and he wouldn't even notice it in his banking account and instead just noped out.

My issue with Notch is really simple. In an era of huge problems and petty, disproportional outrages, I'm offended by anyone who makes ludicrous amounts of money that they could never use, especially from trivial 'contributions' to society, when even in so-called wealthy countries so many people struggle to even survive. I don't care how many touchdowns one scores, how many books one sells or how many people download one's game. There is a utilitarian and power aspect to excessive wealth that disgusts me.

As for troll comments, I make no response. There's apparently a memo posted in the break room for mods on this forum that says that it's okay for anyone to be a dick to me, but if I get the slightest bit angry about anything I must be probated.

If I wouldn't be no doubt appalled by the luxurious lifestyle that Mr Snoop lives, I would actually go if invited. We have nothing in common and you'd have to pay me to get me to smoke weed, but it would make for a hell of a good story to tell later.

IIRC he also was bidding for that same property as Jay Z and Beyonce. Imagine his life if he somehow met Beyonce and JayZ and went to that Snoop party. He'd probably be some sort of socialite now, but nope. Man chose hate and conspiracy.

Anyway Endless Legend is a cool game.

That giant Notch mansion is meant to be for you and your crew of hanger ons. It can only be maintained with an army of servants.

People give Hasan poo poo for living in a mansion but that’s just a big house in LA and he lives with his family and has spare bedrooms for guests.
