  Good for her. Valve doesn’t run on the same talent recycling process you see in much of the industry. They’re small and retain talent.

  I am extremely hopeful about steam frame. Wikipedia says it will still run linux.

  I wish I could have a cool job like that instead of this soul crushing one I’ve ended up with

    I wish I could have a job…

    I’m going on 20 months of unemployment.

      My dude, I wish you nothing but the best of luck. It’s hell out there, but don’t let it get to you. You’re worth it and will find what you need.

  Nice! 2 hours ago in case anyone was wondering how old the screenshot is.

    Thank you!

    Social media’s use of time since posting of timestamps is so frustrating.

      It makes perfect sense when using the website. The problem isn’t the timestamp, it’s the lazy people who share fuzzy inaccessible screenshots instead of links.

      Yes, but it makes sense in relation to other posts. It is just frustrating after longer period of time then a few minutes or hours, or when screenshot like this.

      But that’s perfectly fine if you’re not screen grabbing and posting elsewhere?

  Very cool! You known what would also be cool? Releasing the damn thing!

    Given the current chip market there’d be a 400+ USD upcharge from the previously stated price of “below the (Valve) Index”

    • zedgeist@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      What’s upcharge? Is that like updog?

      Right and in a year it will be outdated + overpriced hardware, rather than just overpriced. Like, steam box haven’t teached you a thing?

    They have to finish HL3 first so that it has a launch title worthy of a new platform.

  It’s cool that she was hired. Let’s hope more VR hardware is released from Valve in the near future.

  She has a lovely smile, I hope she enjoys her time there

  What is going on with her cheek? It is swollen and looks like she just had a tooth extracted.

  source

  • Metostopholes@midwest.social ⁨14⁩ ⁨minutes⁩ ago

    It’s not, everything below her nose is symmetrical. Her hair is covering one side of the top half of her face.That and the light are making the bottom half of that side look bigger.

    Okay I’m done. I already feel gross for nitpicking a woman’s appearance.

    It’s just the lighting. Don’t overthink it.

    Sometimes people have different faces than everyone else. It happens a lot, actually.
