>I tried learning machine language at one point but found it incomprehensible.
Eventually you get used to all the opcodes. But really it's much easier when you assign mnemonics to the opcodes. You probably would have had better luck if you learned the Assembly Language for each of those processors instead of going straight to machine language. Can't blame you though.

You all are welcome. I sent Gabe an email Saturday, telling him it's time to announce the GabeCube2. I take full credit for all this, hahahaha.

gateway PCsAgreed, the Steam Deck is an easy on ramp to PC gaming. That's why I think the Steam Console will be key. Console like experience while under the hood you are PC gaming on your TV with console effort.

I don't think that was a Valve console. I still think Valve will release a console this year. Would be a mistake if they don't. Unless they got some real reasons to wait until 2026. Whatever they release, it better be more powerful than this "fremont" device. If they do release a console this year, then my LCD Steam Deck will easily last until 2027 or 2028.
We definitely need that Steam Controller 2 as well that's for sure.Seriously can't come soon enough.
Valve confirm that Steam purchases with PayPal have been limited to a few select currencies

Paypal is enabling the PyUSD stablecoin on the Stellar network, next month. That should make settling transactions in any currency, extremely cheap. I bet that is what's going on.

Dang, English language only, 6.31%. I'm sure there will be some sort of regression next month but, that network affect is starting to kick in.

Its time, Valve. It is time...It's time. And it's time for the Steam Console to release.

Exactly, it so old that it's no longer valid.It's not invalid. It demonstrates Cononical support plans, for nearly a decade.
That is not the store backend.The store acts as a proxy cache. You can keep it offline or connect it upstream. It refers to itself as a client, but it's also a server.

It's a very old blog post from Canonical.

Canonical developers actively maintain the store backend. Not sure what else you expect from them.
