Wow, this is a big can of worms to open.

If they allow software that changes the behavior of Steam (e.g. plugins) on the store itself, it would surely open up a lot of possibilities, but also ripe for abuse.

I would hate to see Steam become this:

Quoting: robvvIn the original Alien: Isolation there was a small change you could make to one file to ensure that the alien didn't hunt the player.

The alien just wanted to be your friend and give you a hug. :grin:

Quoting: mphuZ

Quoting: MayeulCPretty sure it's CCP for Chinese Communist Party in English

Of course not :grin:

I'm sorry, I really don't see what distinction are you trying to make here. I was simply referring to the ruling party in China. You know, the one and only.

Chinese government-sponsored developer (e.g. a company) would be completely capable of bringing proper Chinese language support to Linux. And people would switch to it, if mandated by the government. I am guessing independence from Windows is simply not something considered to be an issue by the CCP. Especially when they can force Microsoft to comply with Chinese regulations, and do all the work for them.

Seems like a lot of people dislike GNOME, but I love it. I like how you don't really "use" GNOME, as it just gets out of your way, while at the same time all the important settings like WiFi, power saving, etc. are right there when you need them.

Whenever I think about the description of the old GNOME window manager Metacity, it always makes me feel warm and cozy inside.

Boring window manager for the adult in you. Many window managers are like Marshmallow Froot Loops; Metacity is like Cheerios.

Yep, sign me up.

Fixed a rare 3.6 issue that could cause filesystem corruption on Steam Deck 64GB.

I got hit by this just last week. Thought my SSD is dying. Had to wipe it completely and reinstall from the recovery image.

Quoting: Salvatos

Quoting: tuubi- Canada (excluding Quebec).

Every. Damn. Time.

What makes Quebec special? For me it sounds like saying Germany, but excluding Bavaria.
