I, for one, favor having a .1 cent piece, a third the size of a penny about the size of a shirt button.

Because San Francisco sales tax is 8.63 and something the costs 1 dollar is really 1.083. And I would like 91.7 bach cents when I give 2 dollars.

What's sad is that unionizing will accelerate whatever the decline of the company is causing the dissatisfaction. Wiser for employees to just jump ship or found a new game studio when this kind of decline happens.

The chances of a company turning around are super low, adding a union makes it harder. Just run.

It does seem that long term Europe should be segregated from the www.

For small entities Euro compliance is impossible. Say for Michigan's largest Mustang parts website. Euro's often respond this they would never bother and their targets are big tech, but illegal and not prosecuted is not the same as legal. And it is telling that the law doesn't say "this only applies to corps with more the 100 million in Euro revenue". It applies to all companies and individuals. It should be possible for such a site to "opt out of Europe" and have safe harbor.

And there is no way it makes sense for the whole world's web to be regulated by a Euro court. There is no reason for a user in the US to see GDPR banners.

Maybe a great firewall to id Europe users, and if you use a vpn to escape it US law doesn't recognize it as valid.

Anyone actually done this with normal stock options (NSO if it matters) and have advice? My understanding is that it might be achievable with Pensco as the IRA custodian but I'd be interested in hearing how it worked in practice
