I'd be curious to see either the raw skybox image, or whatever is out in the 3D skybox. The "Valve's attention to detail" argument doesn't really pass the smell test to me, given things like the view of City 17 from the Citadel is literally just a satellite image of New York.

Black moves pawn a3 to negative-a1 in an attempt to capture White pawn also at a3.
This location (negative-a1, hexadecimal 91) is invalid, and creates a memory overflow exception. Black takes advantage of this to perform an exploit called an arbitrary code execution against the board, immediately warping to the credits.
Black wins the game.

What makes you think they are getting away with it? Because there was no instant and immediate justice included in the video?
Also do you really consider people stealing construction materials to be "successful"?

Let me get this straight - you look at someone else stealing and think "Why can't I do that too?"

It comes across as a weird psycho power fantasy to want to personally do something about it.

I'm in Atlanta and in the game dev scene, so I'd bet a few bucks we've probably met.
I've never worked at Tripwire, but I have lived my whole life in the South. So I know for a fact that the whole right-wing Christian conservatism thing isn't quite the "rogue element" you want to claim it is. Not to mention that Gibson's whole "born again" nonsense is relatively recent, and I'm sure you'd agree from experience, those types tend to be the worst about it.
And that ignores all of the other weird shit, like how KF2's soundtrack was John's own Christian rock band, and had literal songs about abortion. Or that it was his decision to remove all swear words from RS2, because it offended his Christian sensibilities. (But all of the gore and blood and everything was just fine.) Do you mean to say that nobody at the studio objected to these choices at all? Or that John had such an absolute amount of final say that any objections were dismissed? Either option doesn't paint a great picture.
I hope Tripwire turns this around. I hope Tripwire does better. I hope the people who have come forward as verified Tripwire employees and have said the culture there is full of the kind of bullshit you'd expect from someone who believes the things Gibson said are wrong, or are exaggerating.
But also maybe you should be listening to them, and not me, a random person online. And I'm not going to be holding my breath for them to do it.

Why? Who cares? The store is insured, there are a million cameras, and if you're working there you are being paid minimum wage and won't be given a bonus or something if you do stop them.

If this is so common then certainly it would be no problem to show us where you're seeing it.

What you mean by accurate is that you've invented this idea in your head, and this satire article confirms your imaginations.
Did anyone actually say this? "Well... no, but you could imagine what it would be like if they did!"

Is the number of tiles signed or unsigned? We need an integer overflow.

Calling the bodies God created pornographic because this dude only sees sex when he sees a woman’s body
Years ago I did some life casting as an art project, so it was full nude bodies I was pulling copies from. I vividly remember one guy at the studio was in the back where I had them stored, and came back asking "What's up with the porn?", and my response was nearly verbatim to what you said here.
That people look at human bodies and view them as pornographic says a lot more about them than it does anyone else.

Gibson was not some idle, faceless executive, and Tripwire is not so large a studio that the President is not someone that every person sees and interacts with on a daily basis. Gibson was an active part of development.

Do you understand what "culture" is? When the co-founder holds these sort of beliefs, can't you see that these same ideas influenced company policies, new hires, and the culture of the company?
This didn't happen in a vacuum.

That's fair, although that's sort of an extreme in the other direction and hardly someone I would call average.

It’s not-so-great that he downplays the disease to his listeners while having access to treatments they could never dream of getting, though.
Does he even realize how far out of reach these sort of treatments are for the average person? I have a feeling he has been out of touch for a lot longer than people realize. We can talk about his Spotify paycheck all day long, but he was wealthy long before that.
When is the last time he had a couple hours long conversation with someone who makes $35k/yr? Come to think of it, who is the poorest person he's ever had on the podcast?

I am saying the opposite, actually. Don't confuse me with one of those r/ENLIGHTENEDCENTRISM morons.

I just can't fathom how anyone with half a working brain could consider the GOP more preferable of the two. Because that's what I'm saying - the Dems are more preferable. Not that they are preferable. When given a choice between the two - because like it or not, thanks to our "winner take all" first-past-the-post voting system, it will only be between those two - you have to decide which one you want. You don't get bonus points for saying "well BOTH sides are bad".

At some point, Temura Morrison is going to show up as Old Man Rex in one of the live action shows and it's going to be the most dope thing ever.
Or they are just going to show a monument with his helmet, and I will shed many tears.
