They include “research” when it suits their argument. And speak in absolutes. No drive time radio isn’t as popular as what it used to be… but he’s using all the same tricks.

He sells controversy. That’s his schtick.

Ed knows how to write for his audience. He’s a shock jock for the modern age.

Honest. I like it.

Don’t worry, the American tax payer will bail them out via Joe’s IRA.

You could say… a wave of redundancies.

Want this supposed to be that alternative?

You won’t need Strava to know Joe’s at the ice cream parlour. Pffffff.

In a response to queries from The Journal, the company said for the first time that its Irish workforce is not involved in any work with the IDF.

Well obviously… Unless the IDF want help avoiding tax.

Wow, /s has really lost its meaning on the internet 😂

First Winamp and now Bitwarden. The open source ecosystem is truly dead /s.

Is there a reason that you use some character (I’m afraid I don’t know the name of it) wherever you would otherwise use “th”?

Passive aggressive typing.

Ireland taketh with one hand… and give back (and then some) with another BEPS tax dodging scheme.

As to sending me a revert patch - please use whatever mush you call brains. I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be supporting Russian aggression? Apparently it’s not just lack of real news, it’s lack of history knowledge too."

Fucking lol’d. 💀

That’s my point… Why wouldn’t you just get a phone?

A phone sized e-reader… huh 🤔. So a phone?

Oh well, at least this keeps someone in a job… I suppose.

If it’s that’s easy / cheap then why have they not?

This is a big ol’ game of bluff from both sides. So, according to you, Qualcomm should call their bluff?

I doubt this will go anywhere, but I wish them luck. Go get that nonce.

The EU has a blacklist of tax havens around the world. And, according to the rules the EU decided, no EU member is a tax haven. 🙃

Apparently, according to that link, they did try to class Ireland and the Netherlands as “countries with traits of tax havens” but the recommendation hasn’t been implemented. Quelle suprise.

Sounds like another case of US tech companies fucking with the web of EU regulations to nobody’s benefit but their own.

It’s no wonder they moved to another tax haven. Sorry, sorry. The EU doesn’t have tax havens according to their own rules. Low tax threshold geographic jurisdictions.

They’re not talking about Maths. They’re talking about wealth.
