I have a mole on the top of my head, multi blade razors glide over it, my safety razor is how i found out I had it: sharp pain and suddenly being covered in so much blood I could smell it.

So yeah knoblliness should not be overlooked.

1. programming doesn't mean you have a high IQ, I should know, I'm a pro and I've worked with some absolute dullards
2. high IQ doesn't mean you're not a dumbass, I should know, i have 123 iq and am a dumbass.
3. free online tests are always bullshit, the only reputable ones are paid
4. how old are you that you're worrying about this and who put this moronic worry into you?

My dude, the world isn't only about you.

It's not about you and your inferiority complex, either.

You're much closer to ending up on the street than you are from any billionaire that exists.

I'm also much closer to the center of the earth than the sun, I'm still quite far from either, and I'm not very worried about being near either anytime soon.

Short of world war 3 or some other world-shaking catastrophe that won't be my problem alone, I'm pretty sure my biggest worries are my health and not getting hit by a car, rather than sudden bankruptcy, and I don't live in the US so the former can't lead to the latter.

Now off to the block list you go, people like you don't deserve anyone's attention.

You're not a plane, you don't need to announce your departure.

Implying I care LMAO

I'm more than economically comfortable, by no means a billionaire but I'm not hurting like, at all. I own my own home, I am set to inherit like 2 more houses, I make good money at a stable job, I have time for my hobbies and a family I love.

I want for nothing that I can't have, with some patience.

Gaben having a Yacht collection makes no difference to me, Steam existing and Valve doing what they do does, so I am happy to see them thrive.

Not everyone is an envious crab in a bucket who feels the constant need to compare themselves to others and ensure nobody is more well off than they are.

What a sad life you must lead that you get this angry over something that doesn't affect you in the least, or did Gabe outbid you on your dream yacht?

You realize that the cut they’re taking ends up being used to pay for a yacht collection, right?

God forbid a man spend his money however he wants. Get that commie bullshit out of here.

Money changes hands consensually and Gaben/Valve have more than earned mine. Treating your customers like they are your priority in running a service will do that.

There’s nothing great about Valve at this point

Except their massive contributions to the Open Source/Linux ecosystems with Vulkan and Proton, SteamVR being the only properly supported agnostic VR library, and them basically being the one thing between us and Microsoft becoming a walled garden when it comes to gaming, and more recently the Steam Deck?

If you gotta be a hater, at least be correct.

You should have capitalized one of the two so they would be case-sensitively different but parse the same, another thing to get used to on linux.

you'll get to see the difference between a bad and discriminatory democracy and a pure dictatorship soon enough.

The former elected to enfranchise the aforementioned blacks, the latter is deporting people on a hunch, for instance.

Man, the hidden upside of Europe being largely deforested: not enough wood to build houses with.

Only the inner frames are wood here and still covered in plaster wall and such. Most parts of my house are not flammable, let alone a fire hazard.

Depends on where you live, I literally never met a person whose house burned down, but our houses are not mostly wood.

Sounds like he's done a lot of research and has kept an open mind. He's also wise in suggesting to go into therapy and see if there may be other causes/co-causes.

Anecdotal, but a friend of mine has ADHD and once she started treatment for that she also lost like 95% of her feelings of dysphoria and decided to postpone transitioning until she could figure her shit out a bit more.

Years later she's decided she's fine as she is and saved herself shittons of money and physical suffering with no real drawback.

It's important not to be emotionally attached to a diagnosis.

You can easily buy 3 10TB HDDs with that money, plenty of redundancy, no need to have someone else do it.
