Nailed it!

I just "turned off" the Steam client beta. Everything is back to normal, now.

Quoting: Stupendous ManReally professional! ;-)

However, I'd also ask you Liam to gather a little more information before publishing an article. Please don't take this as blame, I generally like your articles, but sometimes it may be worthwhile to wait a couple days and ask around some more before publishing someone's unconsidered and unofficial comment.
As it is now, some articles are like ping-pong: X game will be out in a month! X game just got cancelled! X game was never cancelled/planned etc... Though I understand it may be frustrating with some of the incoherent comments you receive from official sources.

Liam is not the problem, it's CDPR & GOG who seem to be unable to get their acts together in TW3 case. Feels like there is no official line of conduct for this particular game, on their side, leading to all sorts of awkard answers.

Obviously there is or was a willingness for a Linux port but don't know how or when. Else, I dare hope that CDPR would have already cleared the issue a while ago. It's just not yet in their priorities. Incidents like these may change that but I'm not sure if it will be in our favor...

Edit: Typos!

Still there is only one Word that comes to my mind to describe this fiasco: Lame!

Quoting: wolfyrionFor Companies
----------------
We made a test in one company to switch to Linux just for testing purposes since they have most of their software on cloud.
Only 2 users just for testing purposes ( age 50-55)
It was simply impossible to switch them to Linux because of MS Office and especially for outlook they just couldnt get used to Thunderbird and Libreoffice.

Lack of a competitive e-mail client is truly the bane of Linux for business. If it wasn't for that, Linux would have a much easier time competing in the business space.

There are business alternatives to Outlook. Where I work we decided to drop Outlook altogether and went with Zimbra Collaboration suite. It's all running on Ubuntu server 14.04, in a VM. It's an awesome tool that does everything that Outlook does, minus the bugs.

I got a visionary boss that hates M$ as much as I do. :)

For MSoffice, it's another matter...

Edit: Added the link to Zimbra

Quoting: SnevDon't want to be harsh and don't take it personal, but I have to disagree on the fact that this "certainly something now". If it's -0.2% it's the fault of statistics. If it's +0.2% it's good news? That aside, for me personally, as long as it stays or increases periodically I'm pleased.

We have to remember that, when added together, these statistic "anomalies" sent us from 1.3% to .83%, during the "Windows10 rush", so there must be something. :)

Quoting: KimyrielleMac really isn't a viable gaming platform anymore and Apple doesn't seem to be interested in changing that. It doesn't surprise me that they are losing ground. Which in all honesty is good for us, because it makes Metal irrelevant and Vulkan a more viable alternative for developers interested in cross-platform development.

Still, we would be really happy if Linux could get to the 3% mark, like Mac...

I got the request on an old Toshiba laptop running Ubuntu 16.04. I just opened the client to look for new releases and manage my wishlist... Bam! Must have lowered the average system setup on my own. :)

Quoting: HalifaxAnd welcome to your indoctrination, son. If you don't come out understanding why you do hate Unity, we put you back in the Indoctrination Room and deny you protein until the brainwashing takes properly X-)

It's alright, I'm no fanboy of any desktop. Personnally, and considering that I have kids that usually screw up their DE, I prefer Unity. Else, I'm the first to admit that KDE is a really nice desktop. It's my second pick, in fact. You made your point clear and that is what I expected. My question was no trap or an excuse to start an argument. I finally have another point of view that doesn't use pure emotions and/or hate.

Edit: Personnally I use the search tool in the bash to find my apps (text entry), then I drag them in the shortcut bar. Voilà! I'm all set! I don't need more. ;)

Quoting: MohandevirThe problem I have is something else... In BPM, when I try to read the description of a game via store, I can't scroll into the pop up window... Did I broke something, is it a long standing problem that I just noticed or is it new since last controller update?

Probably something new, I can't scroll either. But you can add the up/down arrows to the left pad in the Big Picture Configuration (default section), or the scroll wheel etc.

In fact, something happened to the left trackpad. I have a family share code and it doesn't react (numbers 7 to 0).

This is annoying!

Edit: I tried changing the trackpad layout but nothing works.
