Only five years ago we were teaching them how to dig in defensive positions and ambush invaders. Now they're teaching us how to fight a war in modern days.

Is that how proud parents feel like?

    At first I was wondering how could there be such an over representation given the proportion of people in the population who are trans. But then I remembered that the trans community were given a particularly strong motivation to get involved in politics in the last decade or so.

    You reap what you sow, republicans.

    The T rex must sleep at some point. Find a big artery close to the skin surface, sever it. Watch it bleed out to death.

    Or just stay in the hut and enjoy one month of free food and rent.

    The secret is to not be a public company ran by a board of directors who actively enshittify the crap out of anything they touch.

    Valve is privately owned by Gabe who unlike the CEOs that usually get selected by these boards isn't a complete psychopath.

    Gabe specifically said in an interview that he would have never been able to hire and retain the talent Valve currently has had it been a public company. The board would have demanded layoffs and outsourcing to countries where labor is cheaper with zero fucks given to product quality, reputation or long term growth.

    And dedicate years of work into improving Linux compatibilty to future proof the company? A board of directors would have shut that down immediately.
