Because Valve is one of the few tech companies that still wants to have fun and be silly like tech used to be. Before we entered the hell scape tech feudalism era.

alternative headline "steam users have a ton of games they got from a humble bundle for super cheap and we didn't take that into account and used the msrp value of each game for this shocking headline."

Also some games don't count time on older games. i know I have games like half life 2 episode 1 that i have beaten that show I never played them since I played them before they started tracking time.

I think this describes 99% of incels

Because they are incentivizing us to buy new phones. It's not a technical reason it's a capitalism reason.

what kills me is we Solved Cheating in the 90s and early 00s. It's called dedicated servers. People would buy a game someone would setup a server and if you were a dick or cheat you would get kicked and each sever was like a community just like it is here.

But the companies want control they want to be able to shut download the game on their timetable and get you to buy the next game. A tool or system is never going to fix this people and breaking communities into manageable chunks can.

Hell back in the day servers were hacked on purpose to create new types of games. Anyone remember CS Surfing and Sniper only maps in TFC.

the point is people can hack away break the game beyond recognition but they can do that off in their own space.

Now I know that breaks global leader boards and other ego driven things but I'm just talking about having fun with games.

My question is always how the hell are you going to cool them. Do you know hard it is to move heat in a vacuum?

?? I manage flatpaks exclusively in the terminal

i kind of hate this because the keys are not incorporeal. So while the ghost can go through the door with ease the keys can't even if the ghost could interact with the keys in the first place. 😜

It has nothing to do with productivity. When you have a lease for 20 years on very expensive downtown property and a whole department that manages that property and sr stakeholders that have investments in the commercial real estate. Then it all makes sense.

I hope he shits himself to death and his end is truly painful

Its sad Windows users have to hack their OS they pay for.

We need to seriously AI proof before that happens or the bots will clean us out and eat all our bandwidth. The only thing keep us safe is we are under the radar.

the moment McConnell filibuster his own bill. I knew the GOP had gone full clown show. It's one's thing to disagree on policy and be against the people but I stop taking them seriously. When their whole platform is political maneuvering amd being anti Democrat. It's almost like we're living in a key and Peele sketch.

Yep know a guy at FedEx and they leave those notes when the package never made it to the truck but they have a contract to deliver in a certain time frame. So they put the blame on the customer as a strategy of cooking the metrics.

am I crazy or am i seeing a pattern with these guys. They go off the deep end after they have a divorce. It's like Mike and Giuliani normal lives then their wifes leave them and boom, first train to NuttJobVille.

Underneath the cover there is reenforcement bars in that pattern so there is more mass to conduct heat

Sort by new and push good content up

Because powerful people turned politics from a policy / representation in to politics as an identity. People will almost anything for their two minutes of hate.

This is huge the fact the had to apologize shows the the we are getting to that point where Linux gaming can't be ignored anymore.

And by good at one thing you mean exploiting people and gaslighting the media.
