Steam Client Beta improves Steam Cloud syncing, Shader Pre-Caching

Quoting: Ehvis
Quoting: minidouHas Shader Pre-Caching been broken for a few weeks ? My Steam updates almost every game every day for a few MB (I figured it is shader downloading since it used to look like small updates).

You probably just didn't notice. Steam used to remove the shader downloads from the list after they were done, but since the download page update they remain there.

So it is normal that they update so often ?

What have you been gaming on Linux recently? Come have a chat

Has no one mentioned Hades ? I'm 30 hours in and still enjoying it. Runs perfectly out of the box with steamplay. Although you have to use the directx version as the Vulkan one surprisingly doesn't work.
Valve put their 'Pressure Vessel' container source for Linux games up on GitLab

Quoting: Linas
Quoting: minidouI still don't understand what a user is supposed to make of "Steam Linux Runtime".
Not so much right now. Although it is already useful for getting games like Dying Light to work properly.

The whole idea is to give a stable runtime environment to the game developers where you don't need to care about what distribution is the game run on, or that upgrades to the system would break something. It is essentially a Linux compatibility layer for Linux to address the main argument a lot of people have against Linux - fragmentation.

So it is for linux games then. Another step to the existing libs bundled with steams. I thought this was to package proton/wine configs, I think it is misplaced, or mislabeled. Why does it appear on windows games ?

Now it just needs to be rewritten in rust.
G2A has paid Wube Software over illegitimate Factorio keys
21 May 2020 at 8:04 pm UTC
The only problem is still Wube not having knowledge on how to make a decent online store. They wanted to cut corners they should have implemented 3-D Secure and such and kept an history of key binded to transaction id, it's not rocket science.
