... well duh.

Did they really have to write this?

This is typical Valve humor. They aren't always super serious with every patch entry.

Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard hits a bump as FTC seeks to block it

I sincerely hope FTC will stop this deal. These big acquisitions has to stop. They are disaster for competition and while Microsoft right now seems open to Linux and Steam, they are just one board meeting away from releasing a new Xbox Store App, make it exclusive to Windows 11 and lock all their games to that store.

The best Linux distribution for gaming in 2023

I fully agree with Liam. If I were to recommend a distro to gamer, i.e. a person that maybe doesn't have time or interest to tinker with the underpinnings of a distro, it would be Ubuntu or Kubuntu depending on preference. I have tried installing PopOS on my laptop but the installation fails. I did run Manjaro but it has some strange UI quirks and after a while updates broke. I'm done distro hopping and spending more time tinkering with the distro than actually usining it. In the future this recommendation may change to SteamOS but right now if you only have a couple of hours a week to game and wants something that "just works" everytime - go with Ubuntu/Kubuntu.

Quoting: subWasn't that planned to be a free upgrade for those already owning it?

I don't know about that but the old game is using Source while the new is made in Unity. So it probably involved quite a lot of work.

Proton Experimental fixes video playback in Ember Knights, Ghostwire: Tokyo and more

Quoting: ZlopezStrange, I played Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide in past with Proton and everything worked without issue, only thing that didn't worked was the launcher. So I'm surprised that it's marked as newly playable, when it was playable in past.

I thought it didn't work because of EAC?
