Hate to say this, but just restart. They revamped the "new player" experience and imo does a decent job of telling you where to go and getting you started. Once you get your bearing again, you might want to reclaim your old account or just stay where you are.

This is what I think as well. I understand there are people out there with that opinion, but I think their message is getting signal boosted by people trying to sway the election.

Believe it or not, McConnell is elected by popular vote in the state. Crazy, right?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

As someone from Kentucky, I could've sworn that I saw reports coming out that the margin McConnell was winning by in some rural counties was higher than the ratio of registered Republicans to Democrats. Implying that a large swath of rural democrats were voting for McConnell. Now, I don't claim to know every democrat in the state. However, every democrat I met hates the guy and a lot of republicans hold their nose voting for him.

Also as quickly as I saw those reports, they vanished. Myriad of reasons to explain things, but sure seems odd, right?

If I may ask, what company?

Live here. Very accurate at times

Purely Mail, yes; so long as you're comfortable with one guy running the service.

Thunderbird for desktop and K-9 for Andriod. Only because they were the most recommended and completely fit my needs.

Based take imo. I think many posters fail realize the insane amount of money steam makes Valve. Rough estimates are that Steam sold 400 million games last year. Average cost for a game is ~$15.5. Steam has a platform fee of 30%. That means that, roughly, Steam made Valve ~1.86 billion dollars just through the sell of games. Not considering microtransactions or hardware sells. Reportedly, Valve made 1 billion dollars just off cases from CS2 crate openings. Let's just give Valve the benefit of the doubt and assume they made $5 billion dollars last year.

Impressive, but honestly not that impressive when you consider that Xbox brought in 18 billion and PlayStation brought in 30 billion last year. However, if you factor in that Xbox has a head count of ~$20,100 and Sony has one of ~12,700. While Valve has a head count of about ~400. We see that Xbox and Sony are bringing in about $900K and $2.4M per head respectively. Valve is bring in 12.5M per head. Plus Xbox and PlayStation have multiple studios and campuses. While I believe Valve only has the 1 or 2 campuses and they are their only studio.

My point being that, Valve has a ton of liquid cash for investment and growth opportunities. I'd wager Valve brought in more than 5 Billion last year, but with them being a private company, it's hard to pin down what exactly they could've made.
