I got a dedicated HDD for Windows and installed Steam several days ago, Immediately I got the hardware survey.

I haven't had the Hardware Survey on Arch for the last 8-10 months, funny times.

Popularizing and gaining the acceptance of the Linux Brand isn't that important or relevant in the gaming world.

On the other hand Valve has handcuffed their brand & reputation to the success of SteamOS/Linux in order to convince game devs and gamers to be part of the Linux Community via SteamOS / Steam Machines.

Quality over quantity - I would rather have the entire steam library run on SteamOS/Debian/Ubuntu with minimal bugs than have every game randomly crash if you're using X distrubtion.

I wouldn't expect steam to showcase logos for Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora and 10 million other distros in that icon space.

The Penguin icon could be seen as "misleading" as their official stance of support is only on Ubuntu and Debian/SteamOS.

This move really is inconsequential and doesn't effect much at all - and if we all read into it too hard then you know what that makes us? try hards.

Nobody likes a try hard.

Developing a automated payment system for Desura would be prudent.

I contacted them 2 - 3 years ago suggesting various upgrades as their software is in need of a serious overhaul if they ever want to be a viable alternative to steam.

Too bad for them their code seems to still reak of problems.

I always miss these because the time is confusing to me. I really wanted to watch today but I'm over in PST so I think that puts it at about 11am here.

I wish there was a plugin or rainbow table picture that showed 5pm UTC to all the zones.

I guess there's nothing to do about Twitch using Flash for the stream, I have to fire up Chrome to watch also which is a half-frownie face.

Last Stream Storm United look really great.

Apples & Oranges.
My girl and me have over 1,000 hours in Terraria and we tried Starbound and wanted to puke. Each game is very different, one is about collecting and stealing things and the other is about building.

I've been watching my RSS feed for Terraria news on Linux all year. So nice to see this on GOL - Terraria 1.3 is going to be amazing :) (No More Wine + SSH Tunnel to play with .NET + XNA - it was such a nightmare)

Finally after gifting people 8 copies of this game I'll be able to play since Windows has RIP 1+ year and we're rocking Arch.

Quoting: leillo1975

Quoting: kyokeiI bought the game in the end, after getting an invalid key (:() and I must say I am a bit disappointed.... the game feels like an unfinished UT.

Early Access==> Unfinished

No need to salt the wound, nothing wrong with expressing disappointment after spending money on things.
