    Valve is the living proof that you can have great service and still be profitable. Will capitalists learn? No

      Why have great service and be profitable when you can have terrible service and be 1.6% more profitable?

        Correction: Be just as profitable but cash out on that profit slightly sooner.

          More like far less profitable over years, but far more this quarter. And when it inevitably goes south because you’re squeezing too hard? Who cares, on to the next company!

              These woke weirdos advocating for more slavery are so annoying.
