Quoting: wleoncioI see almost 1/3 of surveyed users with 12 GB or more. What the heck, guys, are you gaming on server machines? :D
RAM is cheap, and more is better. :P

I'm still in Prague and still discovering things. I love the amount of detail that goes into these games, but it plays hell with my OCD..

While it's not for me, I think it's great that they're continuing to release on Linux. Top rate developer. If they produced any other games, which I was more interested in, they'd get my money for sure.

Quoting: WorMzyThat's the same size as my Deus Ex download, so looks like that might be the problem! I'll update my ticket with the information requested.
Thanks with your info I think I've fixed that for you and everyone else with the same setup :) Just restart the Steam client and you should get a ~30GB download :)
20.8 for me, but thanks! Fingers crossed this fixes it. :)

btw, did you guys have a similar issue for Tomb Raider? I wonder if the problem I was having with that game was the same thing.

Unfortunately it doesn't launch for me, instant segfault after the config screen. Doesn't work on either Arch or Ubuntu 16.04. It looks like the same problem I had with Tomb Raider. :(

I'll try contacting Feral support with my system report and crash dumps.

The latest Steam Client Beta has sorta broken downloads and updates for some Linux users

I had that problem too, lmants. I figured it was my btrfs steam partition being screwy, so I ended up installing it to my larger ext4 partition instead. Now that I look into it, they do have different cases for "SteamApps".

In other news, I think they fixed the 2FA for mobile steam guard users. I no longer have to enter a security code every time I start steam on my PC.

Quoting: edoNo wonder why KDE plasma 5 is doing so well since their fifth version, it's the closer than we have to a serious DE on linux.
cause gnome isn't?
Goodness me, no. GNOME is perpetually unstable. I wouldn't use that if you paid me.

Someone who just uses a standalone window-manager, like openbox, i3, or dwm, and not a fully-fledged desktop environment. They're particularly popular on Arch (though I can only find a poll from 2013, where 144 people used tiling WMs, 55 used floating WMs, and 67 used DEs; current preferences may be different).
