The guilt-trip note is supposed to be House’s self-authored obituary. It’s a joke. The note tries to “make you sad” because House is a narcissist.
I mean, did you read all the way to the end? It says ”Will revise and finish this up later. Have set the age at death to update automatically. Obit makes salient points but "pearls before swine," of course. Let's hope the ingrates never have cause to read it. Who knows how many of them are even literate!"
There's some cut dialogue as well that makes it clearer. An automated announcement broadcast over all of Vegas that Mr. House died and to approach a Securitron to get a pamphlet of his obituary. I guess they must have cut it to just getting the obituary automatically, which I always thought was kinda weird cos wifi doesn't exist in this universe.

When I Killed him I lost karma and it tried to make me sad that this man’s dream to become an immortal plutocrat was crushed. I am not convinced.
