Yeah, checked out the link and it's just a sign up for proton mail. He probably just signed up for their partner program and Proton has put in zero effort into seeing who signs up.

‘We will not survive’: Toyota, Honda and Ford CEOs issue chilling warning about China — and it could hit your portfolio
Aww man, China is dumping to gain market share for EVs? That's crazy. If only car manufacturers had adapted to EVs sooner and researched more into better battery technologies, they might not be in this position. Get fucked. This whole, every car has to be super luxorious in America is getting ridiculous. I looked at a rav4 last year and the "features" they included in the base model was mental. I just want my car to go when I press the pedal. Brake. And a CD Player. I don't need half the shit they put in American market cars. Doesn't help that I have a large family that needs to travel far, frequently. So, my hands are tied with getting an SUV. I'd kill for a better train transit in America. Next car gets to be an EV though. Cause that's the sedan.

Trump's spiritual advisor says that saying no to him is like saying no to God
The language she uses is why I despise the evangelical movement. It deigns us powerful and that leads to abuse of that power and supercilious arrogance that you are forever justified. No wonder the western christian church thinks their defecation smells of roses.

It is very naïve to assume racism only belonged to the Confederacy. Just because black folks were free in the North, doesn't mean it was all sunshine and roses. This was inevitable from America's founding as a white nation. It's a sad, hapless truth; one that, as every society has, will bring us to collapse. So, stock up, play nice with neighbors, and ride out the fall of America.

Valve antitrust lawsuit reportedly reveals lengths Steam owner is willing to go to prevent cheaper prices elsewhere
Reply in thread
I'm inclined a little to agree with you, but it's not like he made his money because Gabe refused to be run by anyone. He pays his employees really well. My dad's friend still is working at Valve after going there 20 some odd years ago. He rakes in money like no ones business. But they are all benefitting from the work they have done.
Secondly, nobody knows how charitable he is in his private life. The fact that he's so private about it, inclines me to believe he's probably a decent guy, who just doesn't like the spotlight. He may be a billionaire, but how many billionaires have their employees love them like at Valve?
Lastly, most of his money is tied up in shares of the company, as he is 50%+ owner. He may use that to leverage cash loans, but he's also just smart. He doesn't really do that all that much, except when he's buying his research yachts. And those shares are only accessible by the workers, as it's a private company. Why? Because the money belongs to the laborers who produce the goods.
Now, I'm willing to change my view if there's ever a situation in which Gabe Newall is intentionally trying to avoid paying taxes, but that hasn't happened yet.
Bezos, Musk, Gates, Trump, Zuckerburg, Page, Brin, Ellison, Dell, Huang, the Waltons, Blomberg, Thiel. There's so many worse people out there. I do agree wealth is bad, but what the aforementioned are doing is significantly worse.

Trump brags about only 'losing 13 men' in Iran war: 'We've done a great job' - Raw Story
When you see human lives as expendable, war becomes something as trivial as chess.
This callousness is saddening to see, continually. I'm exhausted. But I won't let them win.
For that reason I say, I saw a little baby bee taking a face bath in my wildflower garden today. And an opossum came out from under my gazebo to say hi. These are the things to focus on. Yes, yes.

Mate, I did not know parents were not responsible for their own children. That is on me. I'm glad to hear all the work I've done on my network and computers to make them safe for my children was a moot point.
Adults like gambling. It's not Valve's fault that children are using it cause their parents are ignorant of their own child.
As far as the DRM stuff goes, that's all based on the publisher. And it's not that difficult to bypass. Valve has shown time and time again, that they are a business for their customers. Their customers like a solid platform that works and is easy to use and has a community.
Let's take a look a Linux real quick. If it wasn't for Valve, Linux gaming wouldn't be what it is today. They did that and gave it to the community. I'm sorry other platforms can't be bothered to put in that kind of effort. If you wanna play with the big dogs, you gotta get off the porch. And Ubisoft wants to take the easy way out through a lawsuit. They need to do better with their storefront. Offer good exclusives. Try to actually appeal to your customers.
I still remember when everybody bitched about Steam when half-life 2 came out. It was kinda bad, and people were mad about it. But Valve was just ahead of the curve. It allowed them to publish updates, patches, anti-cheating. And soon enough, the community grew to love it. It just worked. If something broke in your game, it was probably fixed in a week if it was a Valve game. It gave so much to PC players.

All right. I really like religious studies, I'm a Christian, although it goes much, much deeper than that. I'm gonna need a reason from Christ himself justifying your beliefs.
Now, regardless of nothing of the sort being mentioned by the Christ, why would you, a self-proclaimed proponent of loving everyone (Christian), insist on using rhetoric that you surely know is insulting and degrading to a group of people? Was it not Christ that said, if you see your brother stumble, first go to him? Then his family? It seems, in your haste judgments you've skipped some steps.
Lastly, this is why the western church is dying. Apostle Paul warned of things not in the Gospel dividing the Church. As such, you have not heeded his words. Christians casting harsh judgments, with condescension and arrogance is precisely why people hate us. And they are right to. You would be well to learn, and praise in it. You are a Christian, start acting like it.
