IDGAF if Newell is a Epstein-class helo-pad yacht billionaire. Valve's success is built on the recognition that customers are the source of success, rather than a resource to be extracted. Valve is bringing PC citizenship to console subjects. Just in time for the 4th of July.

    that’s the problem, you should give a fuck about this! as well as valve’s history of promoting gambling, and the superprofits they get by overcharging publishers (especially indie devs which don’t get the special reduced rates bigger publishers get). don’t overlook all of this because they run a cool platform you like!

    Uhhhh.......hey buddy, we're in a Lemmy thread. No need for anger even if you disagree. It's a Lemmy thread. Nobody died. It's far from being worthy of giving this level of anger over, when SOOOOOOOOO much worse shit to get mad about.

    For example, our president is a pedophile surrounded in government by pedophile protectors.

    It's not a conspiracy that the largest companies ARE working together to make the rich richer while the common man gets less. The world now has a trillionaire. At no point is there any reason why anyone should have even 1/10th of that.

    And the media is designed to keep us divided, and now CBS and CNN may as well be called state media, while Rupert Murdock (founder of Fox News) said something like "I realized I could make a lot of money by emotionally manipulating people based on racial bias. You can sell racism."

    And now we're back here, in this Lemmy thread getting heated over publishing fees and gambling. Kinda gives you a scale.
