German here, I also google unknown phone numbers first if they are mobile phone numbers. My business phone number is in the imprint of every website I make due to legal reasons, so I receive around 1-2 spam calls per week.
FUCK U/SPEZ
I‘m was using two old servers with folding@home running as space heaters in the winter. I got them for dirt cheap and thought if I convert electricity into heat, I might as well do something good with it. Also nice opportunity to run a minecraft server for the kids during that time.

Ich hab auch den Cash geleert aus meinem Geldbeutel.
Zu meinem Bruder hatte einer während seiner Zivi-Zeit gesagt „Ein echter Mann geht zum Bund“. Dessen beiden Söhne haben sich ein paar Jahre später mit ärztlichem Attest ausmustern lassen und auch keinen Zivi gemacht. Da war das plötzlich in Ordnung.
Hats geklappt?
Hello, I‘m a happy anonymous internet user in the internet and not at all working for a secret government agency. I am taking great interest in your cousin. Please send me the address of your cousin.
Sincerely,
Your friend the internet user.
It‘t time for you to drive on the German Autobahn
As someone who worked for a trucking company before, I can tell you that no amount of simulation will equip you with the horrors that truck drivers have to live through every day.

BG3 players be like: Thats one fast & fuckable bear
Imagine all the pain and suffering she caused to those poor straight alpha orcs…
If this site can be trusted, BG3 has about 90 Million users in total. With the game not being on sale for less than 53€ if we use that price as our baseline and remove the 30% that steam takes, they would be around 3.3 Billion euro in revenue. With 450 employees, investors like tencent and previous games financing a large chunk of early development, and a marketing budget of a few million euros, I assume that after taxes they still have at least 1 billion in money leftover, probably more.
Granted, thats not quite the 2 billion that you mentioned D&D is worth, but putting Larian into the “millions” category is underselling them quite a bit and if tencent as their biggest investor backs the idea and pumps money into it, I wouldn’t be suprised if they could come up with the money somehow. Wouldnt be the first time that a company takes on a lot of debt to aquire a valuable asset for them to pay off through the estimated revenue in the upcoming years. The possible ROI for Larian would be way larger than for many other companies just based on the current success of BG3.
Impossible Film also took over the Polaroid IPO in a similiar way. And Porsche nearly took over VW even though they were a way smaller player before VW aquired them.
I just wish that Larian Studios would buy it. They could save their licensing fees for BG3 and could keep DnD community driven. Would also make it much easier for them to introduce new game mechanics into future games and pull those changes back into DnD.
Edit: I just read that tencent owns 30% shares of Larian which is kind of a bummer. Still would be much better with Larian directly, because tencent doesnt have a majority say then.
