A Valve engineer fixed 3D lighting so hard he had to tell all the graphics card manufacturers their math was wrong, and the reaction was: 'I hate you'

          Aww dude, you really have nothing. Don’t worry Valve probably has some new loot boxes and cheap knock-off items they’ve slapped their logo on for you to buy.

          A bit of retail therapy would do you good
