I still don’t feel like it’s a monopoly when there is nothing stopping developers from selling the game as a paid download off their own site. Players can even add that game as a non-Steam game and still get a mostly complete experience as if they brought the game from Steam. Companies selling their game on Steam was always a option and not a necessity.

This affected me at at inconvenient time. I don’t really have a good choice when it comes to fibre internet though so I can’t necessarily see any options other then to accept it and move on.

Always felt interested in doing this one day but decided I would be too socially awkward to make it worth it.

You know books haven’t been innovating graphics for centuries. It’s scary how many people have been using old books for recreational use. How can newer book publishers compete?

Did the squirrel make it out OK?

There are several things I was doing in X-Org that I really don’t have the capacity to figure out in Wayland. One of them was customizing touch pad shortcuts, I used to like having 3 figure swipe commands that worked like keyboard shortcuts. The other was my KVM programs like Barrier seems unable to work in Wayland.

I hope for simple solutions to these problems in the future.

She could just be mouthing off Ruby’s browsing history…

It is misleading. It is 30% of the entire revenue of the game. And it is objective whether Valve deserves 30% of that revenue. It’s also true that games aren’t locked to the Steam platform and can absolutely make money outside of Valve’s influence. History has shown though that it is less profitable then being inside the Steam ecosystem.

The efficiency is doing it so effectively that on an open platform competitors can create there own store, pay for AAA games to appear on their store, take the smallest of pay cuts, pass it on to the consumer, and still have customers prefer to pay more to be in the Steam ecosystem. I’m against monopolies but Valve’s is absolutely efficient.

That has always been up in the air, certain functions of the building and it’s link to the building has been designated a secret. It’s not like the building itself is inconspicuous though.

I hope we get some sort of intervention here but I doubt it.

Electric fires are no joke. I’m glad no one is hurt and that this might open up discussions about how to avoid future incidents.

Looks like it been fixed up with a bit of trickery It’s a shame as it didn’t leave in that state it’s just the journey wasn’t particularly kind to it.

Hasn’t this been a bit of a running trend now? I’m sure I’m having Déjà vu from it.

I do want to read articles that change my beliefs and I’m willing to listen to any take that goes against the wider narrative, but nothing that was said here really challenges anything being said on most tech news sites.

Yeah news sites might not always have full understanding of the semantics but the wider piont of Google’s Manifest V3 restricting uBlock Origin capabilties and not offering an adequate solution is still very valid.

I believe Kuma’s soul was moved into that giant Robot because Vegapunk didn’t have it within himself to essentially kill Kuma. Giving Kuma an ancient Iron Giant’s soul achieves the same effect and is more humane. Also makes scene why Kuma’s current body just scaled the Red Line like the Iron Giant did in the past attacking Mary Geoise.

As a non-American this name still sounds really wierd to me. I just mentally picture meat juice on cookies.

Looks like it’s been rejected

Has anyone tested this on a Steam Deck yet and can report it’s performance?

It’s sideways for me too.
