I removed SFV from my list lady night. Shaved down from 130 to 80 games, deleted all but 4 windows games, ibe been patient enough now it's time to forget with my wallet those who forget to support Steam Machines.
I'll let others play SF and be the meat shield first so I can learn if it's a good game or sucks.

Quoting: Mountain ManShh no one tell the Ubuntu Kernel guys.Quoting: GuestAs I mentioned before, I don't mind this, in fact I think it's something SteamOS is quite useful for.I don't mind it, either, since a static platform is easier to develop for, and if it will work on SteamOS then it will work on any distro (at least in theory), but the way they say it almost makes it sound like SteamOS isn't Linux, when it actually is.

I totally added this high up on my wishlist and deleted 40 games and reorganized my list in prepartion for the steam sale.
It looks like a blast. It's nice to see more full controller support games and local co-op too.

It seems from the screenshots it looks like you can only build in the small diamond? That feels sorta limiting.

More recently I've start to tag according to 1 Player, 2 Player, 3 Player and 4 Player because I like to do 3 Player Local Multiplayer with friends in my living room.

Quoting: HoriFor me, categories work just fine... I have an "All", "Windows-only", <insert-genre-category-here>, "Junk", "Unplayed", etc... I just put the games I don't need in the Junk category and remove them from all the otherI've done this aswell, I have A, B, C, D and Z and I personally rate my games so I play the cream of the crop. The problem is for some reason Steam has deleted my categories probably 3 or 4 times.

Quoting: chriskringel84Thank you kind sir, I think I got it in a Humble Bundle, and I played through it extremely sleep deprived all the way until 7:00 AM, some people are more sensitive but this game made me feel a special kind of creepy, and I probably had nightmares too afterwards so going back after all the hype I would have just been like nope.Quoting: ElectricPrismI wish I could delete this from my library but I can't.It's easy actually since half a year or so. In the Steam client menu (no need for the website support) go to
>Help >Steam support
There select "Games, software, etc." Then type in the name of the game in the search box below. Select the game listed under "PRODUCTS". Then select "I want to permanently remove this game from my account". DONE!
Generally you will be noticed if the game was part of a bundled key/purchase, because it will delete all other bundled games with that *specific* purchase. (Example: Bought Valve Complete, want to delete Portal (why?), that will delete Valve Complete Pack entirely.) But you will have to tick a checkbox and you will be warned about this.
Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTThis game actually did come off as a nightmare in and of itself. I guess maybe people with self destructive personality disorder might actively search for things that are bad for them. I'm glad you enjoyed it, I respect others right to opinions as equally as I value my right to spew my personal ramblings off into the almighty Ether.Quoting: ElectricPrismAh a game about a molested person who is trapped in purgatory.It's some kind of art. It may not be for everyone, but I enjoyed the game the way it is. Do you never ever had nightmares in your life?
There should be a "slit your wrists" tag on steam as some media makes you loose faith in humanity.
I wish I could delete this from my library but I can't.
A third of Valve now working on VR, still no Linux support
21 Jun 2016 at 8:37 pm UTC
Throw in a dedicated SSD and a second monitor and you can have all the VR you want on Linux in the now.
I think it's a bit fair that a developer get and use windows for work reasons, the love of Linux will draw you back. Hopefully by then Valve will have released their Linux drivers.
I tried using a Windows Gaming Slave and I have to say for some reason it disappointed me greatly, maybe all the games I used to play just are boring now and not relevant to me.

Quoting: GuestBut its VR!!! Your actually INSIDE a VIRTUAL WORLD!! That is some science fiction shit! In a few years we will all be in the Matrix!The Matrix? Well shit I'm out.
Quoting: aLI installed windows 7 just for the vive... and to be able to develop for the vive... :(If you hadn't already dropped the cash I would have recommended doing a VGA passthrough on an exclusive GPU and using Windows As A Service aka Redhat Virtual Machine manager style.
Ive been windows free for almost 10 years
Sorry guys... but vr is too exciting for me... :(
I just bought a second computer for it, to avoid touching my main rig...

Buy games from G2A? You should just stop already, tinyBuild lost out on approx $450K of sales

I feel like this hasn't been said yet.
As a consumer/gamer I don't buy from G2A because I consider it unethical, I don't buy from them because I'm not even sure if I'll get what I pay for delivered, so I could loose my cash.
If a developer revokes keys that it notices were not from a authorized channel and they revoke them I suspect most of the whiplash will fall not on the developer but on G2A as it should, thus discouraging their business.
In this case the developer should fight fire with fire and write back threatening to revoke all keys from their store thereby harming their credibility and future business. This is the only way to apply pressure to correct the problem.
I buy from Steam primarily for the convenience factor, it remembers my payment information, is simple, I can gift games to friends, they have sales that make piracy take too much effort in comparison to buying a 70% off version of the game, they keep it up to date and patched for you, you have a friends list, its on linux, etc.. etc... etc...
As a consumer I'm not gonna change my buying habits to by from Bozo X Store to save a buck or two when they're shady as fsck.

Arch Wiki is the place where Linux Admins are born imo ;)

Quoting: Psycic101I started with Arch Wiki, now I have a 60 page arch install guide including all optional configurations to optimize my deployments. I've since created Arch LAMP guides, and a Arch Clone guide which is neat.Quoting: ElectricPrismThis? [External Link] Arch FTWQuoting: PublicNuisanceUpdated. Wow I am surprised about the number of Arch users. I was led to believe by various users on different forums that it wasn't a very popular Distro due to it being harder to get the hang of. Maybe the news was wrong.My mom uses arch, my brother uses arch, my wife uses arch, my moms office uses arch, I use arch, our laptops are arch and our Sofa Samsung TV uses arch too.
Make a install guide to expedite future arch installs, rolling release is the shiznit.
