I have a lot of controllers (Xbox, PS, Switch). I don’t need a Steam Controller, and I doubt I’ll use it to its full extent, but I ultimately wanted to tell Valve that there’s demand for their hardware.
Not like they needed me specifically for that, considering they sold out in an hour… but I didn’t know that until it happened
I’m pretty sure it’ll still work without Steam, you just might not have all the bells and whistles. But according to the site, it can connect to anything with Bluetooth.
Well yeah, there are only like two gamers in the EU. I’m talking about America, the center of the universe 🦅
(Just kidding, I’m glad yall seem to have more stock/lower demand)
Sounds like my earlier theory was right, they’re using the “out of stock” as a way to limit orders. I finally got my order to go through at about 11:10 PDT.
Even if I complete the transaction, a message pops up that says “Your order cannot be completed as the item is out of stock”
My hope is that the payment processor died because of demand, so they marked it as out of stock to try to work through the queue
Edit: this seems to be the case. See my other reply
It’s been too long ago now, but that sounds right
Too late for the Steam Deck
Too early for Steam Machine 2
Just in time for Steam Controller 2
I think it’s funny just how popular this thing is. How may people do you think are trying to buy it vs scalp it? 90:10? 80:20?
Stuck on the payment screen myself. Scrolling Lenny and pressing “Pay Now” every minute or so.
This is how it was with the OG Steam Deck, too. Took me about 15 minutes of guard dogging to make sure I got one. That was a pretty stressful time, lol
“Your laser printer, which doesn’t use ink, will nag you about buying ink” is a wild sentence.
You must use Windows and bought an HP laser jet, cause I don’t have that problem. Linux + that Brother laser printer everyone has = tech that isn’t garbage.
I just bought a laser printer. Toner never goes bad and it prints faster and better than ink
I’ll echo what some others said about Portal, but here’s a handful of games that I’ve enjoyed for their comedic value:
What the Golf is pretty funny if you like/hate mini golf.
Many of the LEGO games have some good humor: Star Wars is my favorite, but LEGO City Undercover was fantastic, too.
Borderlands 2 has some great comedy, with The Pre-Sequel as a decent runner up.
The Yakuza games are fantastic; I recommend Yakuza Kiwami for a low-cost entry that allows you to dip your toes in and get the feel for it
Untitled Goose Game is funny because you make it funny.
Bob Jovi, either Wanted Dead or Alive or Livin’ on a Prayer.
I like those but I think I prefer Runaway or It’s My Life myself.
“I voted for him three times”
I strongly recommend Dan Maclelan on YouTube, a Biblical scholar who has put hours and hours into research.
The Bible is a bunch of books written by a bunch of authors who all had their own views of the world, and maliciously or not altered or mistranslated the original text. In some cases, this was to make a thing that they themselves didn’t personally like also something that God also didn’t like.
Even if you don’t like that answer, we add a lot into the Bible from other texts that aren’t even closely related. Most of our ideas of hell come from Dante’s Divine Comedy, a satire piece about political figures of his era. We also have Lilith, Adam’s “first wife”; and Lucifer being the snake in the garden of Eden, when there’s nothing correlating the two.
All that to say; the Bible is a book of stories that are likely heavily mythologized, but when you get down to the basics, the New Testament says to love each other and treat each other with respect. Do your best to be the best possible you. And when you look at that interpretation, loving LGBTQ+ people and accepting that sometimes abortions are a necessary evil, the Bible doesn’t seem to be at odds with that.
For the record, “You shall not take the Lord’s name in vain” does not mean saying “Jesus!” When you stub your toe. It means to not tell people to do thing X or thing Y “because God doesn’t like it”. And the reason for no swearing was to differentiate the “learned man” from the “lowly worker.”
I haven’t beat 3, but I have beat 4 and 5. I think 5 took the good parts of 3 and 4 and put them in one game. If you want her to play all of them, I’d suggest start with 3 and move her way up. If you want her to get hooked right away, I’d probably say 5 Royal.
And don’t forget Metaphor in the list!
I mean, you could probably put a short version of your title like “How Polluted Are Our Waterways”, but you should have a tighter title that’s not a question like “Our Polluted Waterways and the Threat They Pose”.
Wish there was a better text-to-speech engine rather than speech-to-text. I tend to want my computer to speak to me more than I want to speak to my computer.
Guess that’s just me.
