Not true at all. They started as a game bundler, and branched out into publishing games..

Also, all of their bundles and sales continue to feature donations to charity.

Is it just me, or this article basically just an ad, and not a particularly well written one?

You are probably thinking about Humble Games, which is a sibling company. Humble Bundle has been a multi pack sale company for its entire existence.

I think that sometimes what happens to people is that they build the life that they implicitly believe they are "supposed" to be living because that is what they see everyone else around them doing, rather than based on an honest self-assessment of whether this really is the what will make them happy. When they realize that this life is not actually making them very unhappy, they look for outside factors to blame because they did everything that they were "supposed" to be doing so it could not have been their own misinformed choices that led them to this point.

And in fairness, no one chooses where they are born and the cultural conditioning that we receive, so this is not entirely their fault. It is really a societal problem that we do not encourage enough people to engage in true self-introspection to figure out for themselves what is important to them and what they want to get out of life so that they make these kinds of decisions with great deliberation and personal self-insight rather than taking the default option.

Choosing to have a child later on generally has fewer negative consequences than unchoosing a child you have already had.

Have you really not heard of it? It is a new architecture that is a bit better than x64_64.

So does that make the new name the undead name, and therefore like a zombie name?

Huh; I don't believe that it is really him.

If this is the real Slim Shady, would you please stand up?

All of these options are still better than spending full price for a pair of jeans that were lovingly crafted to start with holes in them!

No, it will be too busy making paperclips to even notice us, except as a nuisance getting in the way of it making paperclips that needs to be eliminated.

Yeah, I miss living in Australia where you didn't have your own waiter but on the other hand that meant that it wasn't rude to flag down any of the wait staff if you need anything rather than being restricted to having to go through a single person.

I’ve only met one other person that knew who/what Dvorak was/is, and also reportedly used that keyboard layout.

I experimented with it in University--I actually got a screwdriver and pried up and rearranged all of the keys on my keyboard within a week or so of starting--but after graduating I noticed that I was still slower at typing on Dvorak than I was on QWERTY so I gave up and changed back.
