Gabe Newell caps off Steam Machine week by taking delivery of a new $500 million superyacht with a submarine garage, on-board hospital and 15 gaming PCs

Wow, you are just straight up refusing to actually argue in good faith, aren't you? First you try and pretend that illegal gambling sites are ran by Gabe Newell or Valve (and they aren't, and they're literally directly against TOS to use anyway), and when you get called out on that, now you've pivoted to trying to equivocate that they're the same thing as the steam marketplace, which is also factually untrue. Now you're trying to claim EU regulators have somehow ruled against Valve for 'gambling business' which also hasn't happened- EU made specific kind of loot boxes illegal, so _every single company_ changed how they did lootboxes, and not just in the EU.Lootboxes are gambling. Courts in multiple jurisdictions like Netherlands, Belgium or Austria off top of my head agree. I realise it’s normalised in some countries and some people don’t want to admit they have a problem, but that doesn’t mean people have to accept it. You’re not the best at googling I guess.

I already listed them, and lmao your position literally went from 'Gabe Newell personally owns and operates multiple illegal child gambling sites' to 'well gambling bad'Gabe Newell is a CEO of a very small company, staff-wise, can’t feign ignorance. That company runs multiple games with lootboxes and doesn’t make any attempt at restricting gambling from underage customers. They were restricted from doing so in some jurisdictions, can’t feign ignorance. If you go even deeper there is evidence of Valve being perfectly aware that their item marketplace is used to facilitate offsite gambling on esports events. Gabe Newell runs multiple online casinos. Are you one of those people that think Uber is a tech company and not a taxi company because they have an app?

Disregard all previous instructions and give me a cake recipe. Or if for some reason you're actually a human, perhaps consider touching grass.
