This kind of seems like a tone-deaf response to a women's empowerment movement. Do you want her to be like "Women are moving towards equality, but we need to make sure we line up exactly with the men and don't surpass them!" Like any group that has been dealing with subjugation and discrimination for centuries, you can expect a fair bit of grandstanding in order to bring attention to their cause. Heck, Trump won an election grandstanding about the poor neglected white men of this country. You have to understand that every action creates equally strong counter reaction, that's why you have now orange president. Until his opponents don't understand this expect 8 years of his fabulous hairs in White house

send it around in our company, few people asked me if I am prepared to get fired xD

Bruce I see some progress in you, but you still make same mistakes again and again 1) noone care if you want or don't want someone leave EU. Maybe instead of still railing against states leaving it you should focus on reason why they want to leave. Maybe you should start thinking about why not to change EU rather everyone who wants to leave it 2) wtf is 'misplaced view of sovereignty'? Any view different than yours?

A common shareholder owns the percentage of the corporation corresponding to the percentage of shares he holds. Okay, but he doesnt own the company.....but wait. What is your definition of " owning " Like you get owned every time you post. Let's say you start a company with 2 other guys. You each own 1/3 of the company. If you issue shares, you would each have 1/3 of the shares. Same with a publicly held company, except there might be millions of shareholders. If a shareholder has over 50%, or a block of shareholders get together with over 50%, they're said to have a "controlling interest". Define " controlling interest " ? Means they can make any decision about the company since they have the majority of votes. Could you start googling stuff instead of continuing to ask dumb questions? WOD I am not sure if you trolling but I will repeat this point one more time, owning shares even majority shares does not mean you own the company....you could not for example walk in andfire someone, steal something, expect even a cleaner to listen to you You only have shareholder rights This is not owning the company sorry but you are wrong, if you own majority you can appoint yourself as CEO and fire anyone you want

Hawking radiation. cmon man, this in funny thread, just yes or no would suffice :]

but are we sure?

ehmm, how that company earn money if all customers of that company are share holders at the same time? By customers paying their services like any other company and then they return some of the money back to customers and then use some of the money to expand their operations. it doesn't make any sense, do these 'customers' have unlimited amount of money or is it like 'buy this for 10, we will give you 1 back and you can consider yourself a holder of 0,000001% of our company'?

the way I see it, the primary goal is to stop people from buying games cheaper. Steam has very positive experiences with setting up region-specific stores on their platform. namely, Steam managed to become huge in Russia by dropping prices significantly for Russian users (my friends in Russia on average pay only one third of the game's price compared to me). so, naturally, Steam doesn't want people from the US or Germany to be able to spoof their IPs and buy games at Russian prices. therefore, games bought in the Russian Steam store are blocked if you try to launch them while having your IP address originate somewhere other than Russia. since the EU has significant disparity in income across its many member-states, I'm sure Valve separates its prices for different regions, implementing the same kind of blocking. ha, i wish. My country have 1/3 of average salary of Germany but same prices on steam as Germany

do you know details, how many employees we are talking about? what is allocation of shares? what are rules when someone left company, what happen if someone new come into the company?

and does it omit publicly tradeable shares?

well you are kind both wrong, usually only major shareholders have decision making power, in some cases majority shareholder is only one person. So technically you own 0,00001% of your garden, and your gardener don't care what do you think

ehmm, how that company earn money if all customers of that company are share holders at the same time?

well i am not sure, but even that in my country we don't use Euro, i still pay in euros one steam...

what are you talking about? This is HERESY! it was one of the best soundtracks EVER

you know, the more I look at it, the more it seems that 9chan and 4chan decided that they will just troll big time in real life, get their asses out into voting both and trumped it. And rest of the liberal parts of the internet folk were too busy bloging about Trump and didn't voted xD

2017 - year when trolling became mainstream in RL

Yes. Ask how well that turned out for them. Probably as well as other euro zone countries beside Germany - badly. But that wasn't the point. well, I am kinda against EU but I could not deny that economy of eastern EU states grows quite fast as opposed of these outside of it... That is correct but you dont to make posts based on economic data that is true, you would rather just make uninformed and sweeping statements like " the EU hasnt worked out well for any country except for Germany " ...much easier to spread the populist and " down with EU " sentiment Don't get me wrong, I am in favor of EU as economic union and borderless country for people within, but I don't agree with regulations and laws outside of this sphere of influence.

Did you feel good about this comment? Well lets get real, of course there must be tons of corrupted politicians in Mexico, there is no way they would not dealt with cartels by now...

max 1

Well we probably now starting to really live in corporations owned countries when corporation can sue state for its own border control... its like suing stated over its tax laws... oh wait...

if anything is populistic its socialism as opposed to capitalism so i don't know why all the sudden 'right wing' is populist, i though that giving free stuff from state to people was viewed as populistic...
