Yep, as long as Valve keeps it up to date and as long as newbie users don’t figure out what Sudo does it will be fine for them.

I believe so, but I never used it and didn’t read too much on it at the time. It was designed for the steam machine concept they were trying to push at the time. So it would be weird if it wasn’t.

Old steam os was an Ubuntu derived OS. Ubuntu has issues relating to the organization that runs it. New steam os is basically a coat of paint on top of Arch which is community based. The old os is deprecated.

The version on steam deck is fantastic, but they have been polishing it for desktop use for a while now. I can’t wait to have it available.

I’m not a programmer, but I do have a job where every success proves a failure of the system. It’s draining.

IMO the best defense is education. Make these people and their bigotry known. I had not heard of them before this post, but now I can be on alert for them, and avoid interacting with them and report them in the future.

Ok, but how many of those projects will result in death if one of the thumb sticks gets stuck or if the Bluetooth loses signal?

When they do release a game it’s stupid expensive. I remember them asking $8 for single nes games.

Physical copies of nes games may be worth thousands in some cases, but that’s the physical object being with something in trade value. no game over 30-40 years old should be worth more than a dollar to two. And really they should be coming in packs with extra features like capcom, Atari and others are doing.

How do 3rd party hosted instances show more than subscriptions in the all tab?

I hope we can find a stable balance so that there will no longer be phases to the internet. I think federation is a move in the right direction for that purpose.

I think this fits the topic of free and open source software. those things are needed to end the cycle of venture capital and advertising destroying what should be public spaces.

I think the only really fair points here are the always online, drm, season passes, and microtransactions. The rest of that is poor implementation. DLC is great when it’s a real expansion that wasn’t ready for the full launch. Multiple platforms are fine except when both need to be running like EA and Ubisoft do, but they have been doing that for over a decade.

Spyware is more of an issue for piracy than more legitimate sources.

What do SJWs and censorship have to do with the existence of any of the rest of this? Social pressures will always make bigoted stuff harder to find.
