- Comment on Reporter suggests Half-Life 3 will be a Steam Machine launch title 1 week ago:
I don’t have a source handy but they’ve said it’s not a loss leader, same as the Deck.
- Comment on Reporter suggests Half-Life 3 will be a Steam Machine launch title 1 week ago:
The first three are all “Half Life 2:” titled. But yes, I mean like Alyx.

- Comment on Twinkle twinkle little star 1 month ago:
Once you go on TV it’s a public affair, believing anything else is incredibly naive.
- Comment on Twinkle twinkle little star 1 month ago:
He was on TV representing NASA in a graphic and lewd shirt. What are you talking about, are you saying that should be acceptable attire? It’s not puritan to hold him to a higher standard because he works for NASA.
- Comment on Twinkle twinkle little star 1 month ago:
What did he get? I was watching the event live at the time and I’m familiar with the immediate aftermath where he apologized and it was largely accpeted. Did he get fired or something?

Bro did you see the shirt?

- Comment on Give your mouse the finger with this wild cursor control ring — Prolo Ring hits Kickstarter, hoping to transform your finger into the ultimate macro and gesture device 2 months ago:
The battery “exploding” is a secondary concern. If the battery swells in a laptop I am not in any immediate danger. If it swells on a ring it can lead to it being trapped on my finger and potentially causing loss of the digit. I also wouldn’t want to risk a ring catching fire in the process of trying to remove it after it swells.

You can disable the video stream too.
- Comment on The Steam Controller's stick is upgradeable! 2 months ago:
I’m not sure if it’s the potato quality, the lighting or the controller is just that dirty. Keeping your (no longer in production) controller relatively clean can help with its longevity!

- Comment on Full Circle / EA confirm again that skate. will not support Linux, Steam Deck or macOS 3 months ago:
EA seem almost malicious the way they're going against the tide of developers supporting Steam Deck / Proton. Online shooters is one thing, but this is a fucking skateboarding game.
