Yet another reminder of the superiority of the Steam Deck and PC as a whole.

Yes, censorship is definitely an issue on even the Fediverse. A certain demographic wants the Fediverse to be an echo chamber. Fortunately, there are some instances that don’t operate that way.

If people want the Fediverse to replace social media, they’re gonna have to accept that there will people they don’t agree with.

The major advantage with federation is that you aren’t locked to one instance. If an instance censors you, you can find a different one and migrate your profile over there.

Still, the fact that people wig out if you express an opinion they don’t agree with is definitely an issue, considering how many Fediverse instances bow to the “free speech for me, not for thee” mentality.

Not necessarily. That man has proven he cares about his legacy. I’d severely doubt he hasn’t come up with provisions to try to prevent that from happening.

Valve is simply the last major company in this industry that I still like. Imagine that! A company makes bank off of treating customers and employees right! What a novel concept!

First, Apple with Liquid Glass. Now this. We are so back.

But PROTON is the honeypot, right???

UAD or Canta. Two really good options for phones you can’t run a custom ROM on.

Best option I know of is MeWe but it’s not a 1:1. Does have some pretty solid group features though.

The Dreamcast has such a utopian vibe to it that just fits nice weather!

I think part of what makes it special is how it shows gamers what the potential of 3D offered. With the blocky polygons and blurry textures of the N64, Nintendo gave high-res renders to show gamers the future. Almost like a “See how far we’ve come? This render is where we’re headed so jump on board!”

We still have a long way to go but we’ve already come so far!

Not a weird argument, that’s the same logic you used. Just because some kids might not agree with your decisions as a parent, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make that decision. Caring what others think about your parenting style is exactly why we have so many messed up kids in the first place.

Its pretty nice to have a space where we just chat about games, I have to admit that!

I’m just speaking common sense here, dude. It’s common sense, and if you do any ounce of research, you’ll see the exact same thing that I’m saying.

Coming up with a solid and strong master password is one thing. But trying to come up with some variations of a master password that you use across all your different sites is inevitably going to result in predictability and predictability is poor security.

Again, common sense info that you’ll find if you do any ounce of research, but it’s obvious that you have neither done your research nor do you want to do your research. You just want to sound like you’re smarter than everybody.

Group playlist? I’ve never used that feature, but I know you can add things to playlists on the web version, and you can make those playlists public as far as I know.

Not new, but they’re great if you enjoy profile customization, more emoticons/stickers, or Steam Deck stuff (keyboard themes and startup movies).

A lot of people are unfamiliar with a LOT of features that Steam offers. It’s a very robust PC gaming social network (complete with a “status” sort of activity feed), player-run groups with Discord-like group chats and themed review curators, full market of trading cards and gems that can be sold for a few cents of credit or traded to make badges, a leveling system that unlocks more features and profiile customization options…

That’s just scratching the surface. I love using those features on a daily basis and encourage my Steam friends to do the same. I’ve managed to build a small circle of friends where we post our activity, share content for games, chat about upcoming titles, etc. I wish more people used those features!

It’s wild to me how, when I was a kid, I thought the Gameboy line was the utopian future and we’d never advance because there wasn’t anything that could be cooler.

Then, here we are in 2025, able to create and tweak awesome projects like this!

Considering the fact that virtually every expert in cybersecurity and cryptography agrees that you need a password manager, it definitely is true. Your issue is that you think you know better than everybody else… Let’s just hope your arrogance doesn’t cost you your accounts because then you’ll be getting a whole lot of “I told you so” from most folks.

Good luck making passwords that are both memorable AND resistant to even basic brute force attacks. Only way that happens is through completely random generation via a password manager.

Right? How dare a parent actually care about their child’s upbringing? It’s 2025, we’re supposed to give our kids an iPad at 3 years old and let Cocomelon raise them.
