Why can't i just shake the feeling that Steam Machines will Valve's gateway to release Half-Life 3 as a Steam Machine title exclusive? Furthermore, HL will only be Linux exclusive, at least for the first few months to put pressure on Sony, MS and Nintendo and the GTA6 launch.


Are people who know of or remember Half Life even a significant fraction of the market anymore?

At this point it's like releasing a new Fred Astaire musical. A new episode of The Lone Ranger.


Why it feels like "this year will be the year of Linux desktop" didn't sound absurd enough for you so you went and upgraded the idea to "HL3 will be a Linux exclusive."


I just don't see that happening, aren't linux users only like 5% of the user base? Releasing their most anticipated title only for the minority would make them lose out on a hefty amount of money. The more realistic option I see is that they offer some exclusive content (add-on or cosmetics) for SteamOS users.


Egypt is a sovereign state with complete control over their side of the Gaza border.[0]

They do consult IDF and Israeli government, but the narrative, that Israel is 100% controlling all borders to Gaza is not factual and untrue.

Thank you! I will update the post


Just to add, the german speaking version of the Cookie Monster is called Crumb Monster (Krümelmonster).


So... It's Hangul?


No idea of what Hangul is...yet


This was the only point I also disagreed! And i also share the same sentiment you observed.

But thinking about it, it highly depends on the situation and the way someone phrases it. The example used in the article is exaggerated. Relation creates a sense of shared feelings only if you are trying to approximate the other person's feeling and thoughts and if you disengaged directly after you said "i also stubbed my toe once". Most of the time, people don't stop there and keep on telling THEIR story and how they felt, instead of just being an interjection. This is not the fault of people, but a normal way of most people doing conversation. I guess the author is thinking about these persons.


Unbelievable! I use WebODM for a few projects and was wondering when the team might consider incorporating NeRFs in their porduct. Seeing this done in UE4 and maybe some work i see great potential for construction work, farms or archeological digs in problematic areas for fast and only basic information-gathering needs.


I seriously hope the felling wasn't done for clicks on Twitch, TikTok or Youtube...


Not an amen. I noticed a lot of people refer to breakbeats in general as "amen". The "correct" term for drum breaks and solos of old funk and soul records is "Breakbeat" as defined by a lot of Hip Hop Artists. A dead and flagged comment in this thread mentioned the "Ultimate Beats & Breaks" records, which are the basis for HipHop from 1988 onwards and of course UK Hardcore/Jungle/DnB.


The track is by Lyn Collins, not James Brown.

But JB produced the track and can even be heard on the track in the section you posted! The "Yeah", the faint "Come on" and the "Ya bad" has his unmistakable voice.
