Quoting: GuestHaving one third of the company work on something that maybe 5-10% of Steam users will buy seems reckless…
Reckless means it involves a risk, that you will dearly pay for, worst case scenario it's a waste of effort. It's not like Valve is short on cash (to my knowledge). Even if VR becomes a bust, it's better then not being ready for it; it could cost them far more to not be ready.

Not giving a dam about something and being polite/courteous/considerate about other peoples desires are not mutually exclusive. (Unless your a company it seems, then it all goes out the window for cold hard cash.)

But "I don't give a dam response" is kind of inconsiderate indeed :)

Alt-Tab is for "noobs" :D
Real Linux men use ctrl-alt-Fx and run multiple X11, Wayland or whatever they want to create there.

The biggest problem is: your video-card driver crashes after doing this quite a few times.

Seeing the Linux distribution retention rate. I can't help wondering what distro people keep the longest, or how long they have been on the same one.

Dead Island Patch Released For Linux, Finally Playable (Updated)

I'm also getting freezes. Seems to be related to keyboard input for me.
I can reproduce it quite easily: I just have to bind quick-inventory to right cursor. Double tab it: and bam insta freeze!
