    Ok so all of a sudden Gabe is everywhere giving quotable quotes. Is this damage control after the bazillion dollar fleet of yachts news, is he about to retire, is it just because of the HL2 anniversary, or…?

      If you read this article you would know that these are quotes from the Half Life 20 year anniversary documentary released a few weeks ago.

        Also it’s not damage control for the yachts, he’s literally sitting in a yacht when he says this quote lmao

          To be fair, the only people criticising his yachts are some smartasses over Lemmy and Reddit thinking they’re on a moral high ground by doing so, when everyone else doesn’t care

            On phone it is crammed full of ads, even with Pi-hole. The fact that they’re regurgitating weeks-old news for this particular article doesn’t scream quality either.

              What ads?
              Not only do you spout nonsense about things you don’t bother to read, but you don’t even use adblock either? Lol

                The top of the article has a banner ad, there is a floating footer ad that refreshes every 20 seconds, as you scroll there are text ads, image ads, auto-playing video ads (one which floats to the top of the page once you scroll past it). Those ads. Edit to reply to your edit: pi-hole is an adblocker lol
