    Not sure exactly what you're trying to say here but I guarantee 0% of that wealth came from his investments in Linux support. Their investment in Linux is mostly a way of keeping MS in check, as in "if you try to fuck us the way Apple does with iOS, your customers will leave Windows because they'd rather have something where they can play their giant library of existing games".

    No, it's not a way to keep anything in check. It's a way to not pay license fees to Microsoft.

          Is that supposed to be an insult? I love communism and circus performers, they both bring joy to the masses

          I love communism

          And I'm sure you live on one of the many successful communist countries in the world today.

          Oh, wait.

          and circus performers

          Well at least you have high self esteem.

          they both bring joy to the masses

          The masses*

          * the portion of them that is not in a gulag, is not disappeared, doesn't have its rights curtailed due to social credit decline for disagreeing with the regime, wasn't purposefully starved to death during the holodomor, and so forth.

          And don't get me started on the evils of the circus performers who propagandise for them from the comfort of their liberal democracies.

          There is a reason communism is treated with equal acrimony to nazism in every former soviet satellite state, m8.

                Paying less is good. I love sales, but they are still a psychological manipulation to get you to spend more money than you normally would.

                  This man never does interviews. Then the one interview he does in the last 30 years is trash-tier editing of a vertical video of a laptop screen in a Zoom meeting from 20 feet away, that's only uploaded as Shorts, by some guy who only has 4 total videos uploaded ever. WTF is up with that?

                  Dude OK, you read my mind! They also seemingly recorded audio on a mic in the room instead of recording the call directly?? 😵‍💫 wtf is happening

                    Child gambling? You mean like Android videogames and Google not caring about it for a while until some EU law??

                    I didn't knew that involved Valve too..
