Quoting: MaathSo, what are the 12.5 million doing? Sifting through the morass trying to find a game to play? Or is it, if you have your Steam client open, you are a concurrent user?

Yes

Quoting: rkfgGood publicity (they really need it), competition is good for everyone. To name a few.

I never heard the theory that competition is good for one of the competitors.
Having a monopoly is good for a competitor (which then stops to be a competitior, of course.)

BTW...

After changing my hardware, I got a survey on Saturday.
As people keep reporting this behaviour, I wonder if they're just using older survey data from people who didn't change their system...

Comedy point and click adventure Later Alligator is now available on Linux

I bought and played it, now. Well, played parts of it. It does have style, it does have good music, but in the end, it's a collection of not too interesting mini games.

Have an Intel processor? Enjoy two more vulnerabilities

Quoting: pete910
Quoting: beko
Quoting: EikeNot everybody changed their computer yesterday, and Intel was better for decades.
^-- This.
True but a lot did 3 years ago to yesterday :P

I wanted to buy a new processor for some time now, but I couldn't justify buying Ryzen 1000 or 2000. So for me, it's more like half a year instead of three.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoIt happened to me and, because of that, a couple of contacts in the socket were broken and the mobo never worked again...

I nearly broke my new Ryzen because I didn't pull the attaching lever. I hope you have been more clever than me? Because with the lever, i used quite some power to attach the fan and the CPU still didn't move (or break)...
