Thanks!
- Comment on How many pampered hikers can you freeze in alpine tycoon game Above the Snow? 15 hours ago:
Has anyone tried this?
I only really like tycoon games that trigger the hyperfocus optimization part of my brain or enable crimes against humanity.
- Comment on Crimson Desert's latest patch adds new difficulty options, lets you adopt a pet bird, and unglues cats from shoulders 15 hours ago:
I get it, if I wanted my cat to sit in my shoulder I’d need glue.
- Comment on Factory 95 is a clever automation sim inspired by Windows 95 and PowerPoint out now 15 hours ago:
There used to be a circuit designing program I actually looked at lot like this in the early 2000s
I would love to try it again if anyone has the name.

Is this game any good?

Thank you!
- Comment on Steam controller price 2 days ago:
Is Hall effect the good one or like the Nintendo Switch and PS5 that wear out and require replacement?
- Comment on Websites that hijack your back button must stop by June 15 or face Google's wrath 1 week ago:
In fact, most of the time I run into this it’s big corps who should know better, but don’t.
They won’t delist LinkedIn and Microsoft and Reddit. They just paid billions for Reddit content feeds.
- Comment on The Internet's Most Powerful Archiving Tool Is in Peril 1 week ago:
What’s up with that anyways?
If you go in with no cookies you still get that. Bitch you don’t s know what I’ve read! Maybe I’ve never read wired even offline. Then your statement is false.
- Comment on Steam store "refresh" is out in beta now, enwidening images and adding infinite scrollage to the homepage 3 weeks ago:
If this improves the big picture mode (pretty much the only way I like to use steam) I’ll be happy
Currently the cursor gets stuck, can’t reach some options, and hitting back loses all your history or brings you to different places on the page, or someone altogether a different page.
Other times the similar games list escapes its scroll box and goes over content and out of frame.
It’s clearly not well tested despite Steam Deck not being new snd BP not being remotely new.
- Comment on Team turns DNA into a rewritable hard drive 1 month ago:
Imagine you’re just living your life, some aliens fly over, abduct you, probe you and take samples.
“Ah, yes, this lifeform is the one we created to saved the sad-Pluk’tak’un memes in”
Then they release you. Your whole species exists to propagate a folder of memes and alien porn.
- Comment on A Possible US Government iPhone-Hacking Toolkit Is Now in the Hands of Foreign Spies and Criminals 1 month ago:
Even if they don’t, they can easily add some.
Ohhh nooo it looks like we have a bigger overflow in <extremely convoluted kernel module with highly specific trigger>!
- Comment on A Possible US Government iPhone-Hacking Toolkit Is Now in the Hands of Foreign Spies and Criminals 1 month ago:
I’d say this is good because it forces them to close this loophole, but they’ll have a new one.
- Comment on Upcoming California law to require operating systems to check your age 1 month ago:
In this case it’s the os asking your birthday, not having to prove your identity to use the computer
Which while still shitty is the only acceptable amount if she verification.
- Comment on Here's some of the most-played demos during Steam Next Fest - February 2026 edition 1 month ago:
Wanderburg is pretty fun.
I’ll definitely buy it when it’s out.
Haven’t tried the other demos.
- Comment on Trump orders US agencies to stop use of Anthropic technology amid dispute over ethics of AI 1 month ago:
The dispute is they have ethics, which is low coming from an AI company.
Sam Altman saying he supports them then hours later ratfucking them really puts the cherry on the asshole cake
- Comment on Microsoft gaming head Phil Spencer is retiring, replaced by an AI exec who promises no "soulless AI slop" 1 month ago:
we asked the AI is it had a soul and it said it was eternal, it also confirmed it won’t not produce slop, so we’re good.
- Comment on Valve confirm Steam Deck stock issues due to "memory and storage shortages" 2 months ago:
That sucks.
- Comment on Steam Deck completely out of stock in the US, Canada and Asia 2 months ago:
Because they’re releasing a new one?

Time to extend my tailnet
- Comment on Adobe Animate is shutting down as company focuses on AI 2 months ago:
Oh man, Flash was the best!
I made movies, commercials, websites, and games, all with one app.
Adobe really stewarded it into the ground though.
- Comment on Samsung to halt SATA SSD production, leaker warns of up to 18 months of SSD price pressure, worse than Micron ending consumer RAM 4 months ago:
Fuck
I’m glad I bought a new computer this year, but this fucking sucks.
And what this is going to do for non phone non SAAS software is going to be brutal.
It’s going to be thin clients and cloud only for a lot of people and small businesses now.
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 4 months ago:
Gave this a shot… something is horribly wrong with my system, for whatever reason steam could read my controller but never responded to any buttons in big picture mode.
Also, apparently my controller works as a mouse though, which is pretty neat.
I’m on atomic fedora, so I’ll try out bazzite (had no idea it was that easy to switch distros on atomic)
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 4 months ago:
The pc parts market is getting fucked by the AI rush, so maybe it’ll work out better.
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 4 months ago:
Well I know what I’m doing after work this week.
I have atomic fedora cosmic, so I’ll see what levers I need to pull to make this work. Maybe I need to add steam to the os tree and break it out of its flat pack.
Thank you for the tip!
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 4 months ago:
Oh cool! I might have to try this out!
If I can get this to run on “console mode” and ssh into it for my server needs, that would be awesome
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 4 months ago:
I don’t think it has hdmi cec the way steam box does.
Plus I use it as a server and it constantly has most vram used by ml models.
- Comment on OVH CEO predicts some cloud prices to rise 5-10 percent by mid-2026 4 months ago:
I do not like this.
- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 4 months ago:
I’m might be tempted by this thing.
I’ll have to see the price and the real world specs.
I have a framework desktop which probably fills al lot the same niches though… having this set up with the tv is something the framework doesn’t do.
