Showing your age (and possibly your Britishness) there! :grin:

Genuinely not sure if "you wouldn't steal a car" was shown outside of British cinemas?

Edit - so, uh, it wasn't shown on cinemas, it was DVDs mainly that featured this tripe. Early 2000's though, so at least I had that right.
So, where is it from?

Be it good or bad, I severely lack Britishness. :D

Half of the developers being unsure and more positive than negative is not too shabby in my book.

I'm unsure as well if Steam Deck will be a big success.
To be honest, I'd lean more on the no side than on the yes.

Quoting: EhvisI wonder which Mad Max was "verfied". Native standard, native vulkan-beta or proton.
Cannot be something different from what you get by default IMHO.

Quoting: SchattenspiegelPurely for voice chat: much better than discord!
Why? I wanted to do voice chat (Valheim with a Windows using friend) lately for the first time (yay!). I was "defaulting" to Discord, but in the end wasn't sure why not to use say Telegram or WhatsApp (latency?) or, well, we were two, good old phone line.
What should we use - and why?

Quoting: slaapliedjeUhm, there has been one delay.
First was predicted to February 2022, now @Arehandoro said:

Quoting: ArehandoroMy order availability now says after Q2 2022.
The original release date was Christmas 2021.
That's their personal date, not the general release date. Everybody preordering gets a personal prediction when their respective order might actually happen.

Quoting: Tuxee
Quoting: ArehandoroMy order availability now says after Q2 2022. Therefore nothing for another 6 months approx.
"Another 6 months" would translate to "Q3".
Well, "after Q2" and "Q3" is not too contradictory...
