I’m just a weird, furry, pan guy (cis he/him). I also have a big, blue username.
Currently on Earth for 8 years ensuring steps to unite humanity and usher us into the galactic civilization just so I can see my boyfriend again.
- Comment on Valve added a framerate distribution chart to the Steamworks partner dashboard so developers of Steam Deck Verified games can see real player FPS data from opted-in Deck users. 2 days ago:
Wild that wasn’t already part of the rest of the analytics Steam does.

Anything dealing with printers generally requires at least a basic understanding of eldritch magic.

That is literally what it was made to be.

…Where you gonna insert the CDs? 🤔
- Comment on [Discussion] What was first Steam game you ever purchased? 2 weeks ago:
That’s basically the reason I bought it. The idea of a random indie game being so easily obtained was novel af in 2003.
- Comment on [Discussion] What was first Steam game you ever purchased? 2 weeks ago:
Violence, maybe? I don’t remember if it had blood effects or not. I don’t think it did. But it was released back in the day when Germany was almost as bad as Australia in terms of censorship/banning games so maybe it just never was available there. 🤷♂️

Ragdoll Kung-Fu

Uplifted animals? Like anthropomorphic animals? Furry aliens?

How would they know?

I also find the logo weird. They call it Anubis, but use an anime girl instead of a sexy, shirtless jackal man like Neferu.
- Comment on Long-lost horror gaming cult classic P.T. gets a much-needed PC port 4 weeks ago:
Long lost? People have been holding onto that fucking demo since it came out and it’s only been… Holy fucking shit twelve years?

Alphabetically.
- Comment on Richard Garriott is officially regaining control of the Ultima series 4 weeks ago:
I wonder what this means for UO. I was surprised to discover it’s still up and running. They even had live events running last month.

Wait… I can play Skate without being online and get all the paid shit for free? Sign me up.

I just look at the console.
- Comment on AMD APUs, like the one that Steam Deck has, might get FSR 4 support next year thanks to the tech expanding beyond discreet top-of-the-line GPUs 4 weeks ago:
I am not saying you’re wrong, I’m trying to understand what you posted. But I see what you mean now. I was under the impression the training data was specifically for the specific upscaler so FSR4 would need at least FSR2 supported natively.
- Comment on AMD APUs, like the one that Steam Deck has, might get FSR 4 support next year thanks to the tech expanding beyond discreet top-of-the-line GPUs 4 weeks ago:
You swap it with whatever upscaler it has, yes. But not all games have any FSR or even DLSS support. Some only have XeSS, and you can replace that with FSR or DLSS using the utility. If it never had even FSR1 support, how is it able to work at all?
- Comment on AMD APUs, like the one that Steam Deck has, might get FSR 4 support next year thanks to the tech expanding beyond discreet top-of-the-line GPUs 4 weeks ago:
I can use FSR4 in games that don’t have it, on hardware that doesn’t support it with Optiscaler. How the fuck did it train on shit it wasn’t actually made for if that’s how it worked?
- Comment on too real 5 weeks ago:
Do you want to store things long term or short term?
- Comment on Nobody talked about the most useless feature of the Steam Frame 1 month ago:
The Quest has this too, but it sounds like it works a load better from your description than the Quests. There are a few times when having that pointer work well would have been super nice. Like when just watching videos in VR and you want to pause or change videos really quick without having to use the controller or enable the wonky hand camera controls.
- Comment on This may be the best way to play 2D games* 1 month ago:
So it’s just running native inside the headset?
That is also pretty nice. I forgot it could do that for a second lol
- Comment on This may be the best way to play 2D games* 1 month ago:
I sometimes played games like this with my Quest just so it felt like playing on a gigantic screen. The only thing that sucked was the occasional lag from streaming it.
How is the latency with the Frame? I expect it having it’s own dedicated dongle for streaming makes it super good.
- Comment on FrameDrop Lets you Easily Sideload to your Steam Frame - SDHQ 1 month ago:
Plenty of people have had them for months; just not the general public.
- Comment on FrameDrop Lets you Easily Sideload to your Steam Frame - SDHQ 1 month ago:
If you’re not side-stepping protections meant to prevent installing the software, it’s just regular loading, not sideloading.
- Comment on Someone finally cracked the PlayStation 2's security chip, 26 years later 1 month ago:
What is the difference between cracking this security chip and all the softmods that allowed unsigned code (invluding pirated games) to be executed?
- Comment on Steam Frame - What games do you want to play on it? 1 month ago:
Currently? VRChat. Only thing I was playing on my Quest until I sold it. Alyx was good, but it’s not really long or replayable.
- Comment on 1 month ago:
I’d rather pay $1000 for the machine to play my games on than pay $1000 per game. 🤷♂️

They always make sure to give you extra semi-colons, in case you lose one.
