No one needs to worship Steam. Gabe will never let you on one of his 50 yachts.

So, Apple and other companies that charge 30% to host apps: BAD

Steam changes 30% to host games: GOOD

I’m not saying this is your argument, necessarily, but it’s funny to hear that “30% is good actually!” in the tech space because the last few years it’s been “Apple and others who charge 30% are taking too much! All they do is host and manage the traffic for apps!”

And I’m not trying to say Apple is good or anything. It’s just funny.

I have 100% called in sick from another state just as my friends and I were about to get on a gondola to go up to the top of a mountain.

I was on the phone saying I felt terrible when “NEXT CAR ARRIVING” or something similar blared over a loudspeaker.

“What was that?” they asked. “Oh, just the tv. fake cough”
