I’m a lot less angry at him than the ones who seemingly use their wealth exclusively to make our lives worse. He just has a bunch of money to buy boats. He’s the last on the list for me
yes, but valve still exploits people. They put on steam sales explicitly to get people to buy more. Especially poor people. More, that they otherwise might not be able to afford just because “it’s on sale!”
Like Torvalds, Stallman and Wozniak, Gabe Newell had an idea of how he thought technology should work and has never let up on it, it’s a shame they couldn’t profit as much as Gabe.
The yacht hobby is a bit much but compared to the standard billionaire hobbies, destroying the planet, rape, and murder, he’s pretty mild.
You don’t call it a shame when it is a conscious choice:
“Wozniak has discussed his personal disdain for money and accumulating large amounts of wealth. He told Fortune magazine in 2017, “I didn’t want to be near money, because it could corrupt your values … I really didn’t want to be in that super ‘more than you could ever need’ category.””
I love how everyone is so desperate to make Gabe to be a terrible person.
What would you call someone who has $1B worth of yachts while we’re all struggling to eat and pay bills?

A billionaire…
It’s crazy for people to take a stance against him considering how much he’s done to protect the hobby from less reputable corps.
God imagine the world we’d live in if he didn’t build modern child gambling with his own two hands
God your self-righteous
Things to say when you want to make being a piece of shit into a good thing
Said the loser fighting a losing moralistic battle over nothing.
Two weeks later and you’re still crashing out about how I said it’s bad to prey on children and be a parasite
How do you reconcile having such a pathetic submissive personality and wanting to act big and tough on a forum like this?
“Ew morals”

get a clue
lol fucking grandmother ass last word
Are you mistaking him for the inventor of Pokémon cards, Richard Garfield, or the inventor of baseball cards, John Baseball?
Said ‘modern’ for a reason, but I guess telling someone they’re wrong is worth ignoring what they say
Pokemon cards aren’t modern? They came out in the US in 1999 and aren’t considered obsolete or old AFAIK.
