- Comment on "What the f*** do I pay you for if that’s your opinion?" Gabe Newell reportedly once shouted at one of Valve's Lionel Hutzes during Steam porn debate 2 weeks ago:
Frequent Nudity or Sexual Content and Adult Only Sexual Content is unticked in my settings. Content whose purpose primary feature is nudity and or explicit sexual content are filtered. I don’t think your example would filter out BG3 or games like it.

I don’t see any porn games in my Steam Store at all. I also managed to see and buy BG3 without being inundated with porn games, so not sure what you are doing.

- Comment on I went back to Linux and it was a mistake 4 months ago:
Not even that, he depends on their system so won’t leave it. His job depends on their software so he is tied to it and won’t make any real effort to get away from it.

I don’t agree, tech reporter who depends on certain tech for his job will continue advocating for that tech because it’s how he gets paid. Tech savvy my arse.

They aren’t the only ones:
Canada’s Approach to Cloud Services in the Public Sector Proposed Ban on American Cloud Services
The Canadian government is considering a ban on American cloud services for public sector use. This move is part of a broader strategy to enhance data sovereignty and protect sensitive information from foreign access. The intention is to ensure that Canadian data remains under Canadian control, especially in light of concerns regarding the U.S. CLOUD Act, which allows U.S. authorities to access data stored by American companies, even if that data is located in Canada. Implications of the Ban
Data Sovereignty: The ban aims to strengthen Canada's data sovereignty by ensuring that sensitive government data is not subject to U.S. laws. Economic Impact: This decision could impact the relationship between Canadian and American tech companies, potentially limiting options for public sector cloud services. Infrastructure Development: Canada may need to invest in developing its own cloud infrastructure or partner with non-American companies to meet public sector needs.
Current Status
As of now, discussions are ongoing, and the government is evaluating the legal, operational, and technical implications of such a ban. The definition of “sovereignty” in this context is still being refined, and the government is considering how to balance security with the need for effective cloud services.

- Comment on STEAM FRAME - Valve Corporation Trademark Registration 9 months ago:
It would be sick if it were VR glasses that could be stand alone, but also be able to tether to a PC for more horse power when needed. This way we wouldn’t be limited to shitty graphics often associated with today’s VR titles.
- Comment on STEAM FRAME - Valve Corporation Trademark Registration 9 months ago:
I’d rather have linux than android. I don’t consider them the same thing. If they were we should be able to run android and linux programs interchangeably without middle-wear, but we can’t because they aren’t the same.

- Comment on Battlefield 6's PC specs don't look too lofty despite all the booms, and Steam players won't need the pesky EA App 10 months ago:
I was watching a few streamers playing the game, looks amazing but i noticed a lot of the time it seemed the guy had the drop on the other player only to get mowed down by them. Looks smooth not laggy, but something must be going on with packet delay. Probably seeing how much info they can cull to get the game playable with so many people.
