Valve releases a new update to the Steam Client, nice Linux fixes made it in again

Did you try disabling steam overlay?
Yeah but it is a separate thing.
Disabling stream overlay should get rid of all steam notifications.

I messed with the UI theme to get rid of notifications, but keep the screenshot functionality... Yes, I'm old and grumpy, too! ;-) (No, seriously: These notifications hurt immersion.)

PS: I'm not sure I know games with their own in-game notifications.

Quoting: TiedemannI'm still waiting for the day I can turn off those damn notifications though, both in-game and when starting the client.
But... you can!?
I'm talking about achievements and inventory popups, not friends stuff.
So you want some and hide others?

I wonder if some Metal band wanted them to change the name. ;)

Bendy and the Ink Machine & Prison Architect going cheap in the new Humble Very Positive Bundle 3
17 Jul 2019 at 8:55 am UTC

Quoting: PhlebiacSteam said I already own Bendy and the Ink Machine (probably some prior bundle). However, it says the executable is missing; in fact, installing it just yielded an empty directory here. Is it working for anyone else?

Edit: verifying integrity in Steam says everything is good, so it must be an empty depot or something.

Edit 2: maybe I just had the demo, and they screwed up when they merged everything together:
Apr 27, 2017 Bendy and the Ink Machine Complimentary
I got the free first episode, and they managed to organize it so I cannot buy the full product now... :-(

So maybe Humble Bundle would be a way to get it?
Anyboy got a Bendy too much, maybe? :)

What I'm unsure about regarding manual compilation is if programs are usually equiped to uninstall (without leaving cruft) themselves...

What have you been playing and what are your thoughts?

Quoting: kaimanThe only bug I remember was audio not working 50% of the time. Restarting once or twice and it would be fine for the remainder of the session. But when it came up silent on the intro screen, silent it remained.
This should be fixed (according to the developers an my experience).

Quoting: kaimanit has the ugly face of existing socialism lurking right beneath a very, very shallow surface.
But this not, obviously.

Though I did always want Linux users to get to play the game if I had the opportunity to do so, and fortunately it worked out.
That's what we've discussed lately. Artists want to enable as many people as possible to play their games.
