There's always Linux. Steam Proton is making huge progress, from what I hear. If you really want an OS that respects your freedom, then neither Microsoft nor Apple are your thing.All that talk of Windows 7 being deprecated is a little depressing. Windows 10 has still so many issues, forced updates in most editions and an absolutely terrible UI among them. There's also the fact that they have ramped up the built-in advertisement and distribution for MS products at the OS level and I really can't abide that. I've been using it on my VM for a while now and nearly a year later, I really can't bring myself to upgrade. I just loathe it.
Interesting. No, seriously.
If you never touch the terminal on Linux, there's nothing you can accidentally do. As for using Steam Proton, it's literally backed into Steam. You just download the game, and press Play, Steam does everything for you.
I use a combo of Directory Opus to replace Explorer and Classic Shell to make a lot of the W10 annoyances go away.All that talk of Windows 7 being deprecated is a little depressing.

Because 8 and 10 are pure trash, microsoft's botnet. Performance is terrible (this is masked by 8+ cores and ssd), ui is terrible, any basic action takes 4 times more steps than on a proper os.All that talk of Windows 7 being deprecated is a little depressing.

I tried Linux, and the user experience was really not what I enjoy. Windows is still, for all its faults, what I like in terms of UX, but 10 is seriously challenging that. There's also the fact that awfully little of the software world is actually supported on it. I am pretty proficient with linux, used it for years and it's really never clicked.
I actually tried Classic Shell on my VM and it was alright but what I'd really want is a way to have Aero working again. Why they won't enable it when I understand it was half-implemented at some point, I will never understand. It's that rectangular design for windows with that huge, useless space at the top I can't really abide
.
I had a similar experience with Linux, never clicked with it and never liked it tbh, I still had a laptop with an Ubuntu install until like 1-2 years ago though, mostly out of habit.
Linux is a tinkerer's dream and the UI can be really nice and made to look good, but the overall experience still relies heavily on CLI. At some point, when something goes wrong, you'll end up going down layers and layers into the OS's workings, and I'm just not up for that anymore. I am capable of it, but that doesn't mean I want to. The UX just doesn't justify investing the time when I find Windows to still be more enjoyable. 7 at least.
Wellll, I will have you know, young man, that I can be challenged sometimes. I installed a new HD for raid some years ago.
Linux doesn't do defragmentation. Here's an explanation: Why Linux Doesn’t Need Defragmenting
One big issue is hardware support, as I mentioned. There's nothing that "Linux" can do about that, though, it's the manufacturers that need to provide drivers. With Linux that often doesn't happen for new hardware, leading to issues. Ironically, for older hardware, like old printers that are no longer officially supported on newer Windows versions, the open-source drivers are quite good, making them run fine on Linux.
Id love to know whats in the list of pc games. Im not a collector per say but there are always older games im looking for that arent digital.
indeed it is a shame. pc gamers can't be trusted to let even a bit of whimsy into their life. they are better off sticking to snoozers like serious sam.For all its horror and all its glory Untitled Goose Game release went almost unnoticed on Steam.
It's probably not what you want to hear, but I suggest buying a newer phone. There are some great phones that are dirt cheap nowadays. My former phone, Lenovo P2, is going for $100 used in perfect condition, and that's taking Poland's 23% VAT into consideration. 8 core CPU, 4 GB of RAM, 5.5" screen, 5100 mAH battery, Android 7 (Vulkan support, can use PSP emulator easily) - amazing value.I've been unable to log-in to the Steam mobile app for a couple of days now.
I tried everything I can think of, without any luck.
I saw people mentioning deleting the temporary files/cache of the app worked for them.
Well, I did so, and not only I'm still unable to log-in to the app, but now I don't even see the changing log-in codes, so if I close Steam, I will be unable to log-in back.
Any suggestions?

Yeah, I did so already.
I think the main problem was just the model. Asking you to buy the games is OK, but when you are targetting a wide audience that doesnt really understand it, saying "Netflix but for games" is a much easier and understandable sale. Which is something that Luma (Amazon's model) seems to be doing from day 1.
It had a banner, it probably did quite OK lolFor all its horror and all its glory Untitled Goose Game release went almost unnoticed on Steam.
That is because better games are already available and more worthwhile for consumersFor all its horror and all its glory Untitled Goose Game release went almost unnoticed on Steam.
Just throwing an idea, maybe you could try using your wife's mobile phone (in case it's more modern than yours
). At least you will be able to log in and continue selling cards...She has... the exact same model as me.Just throwing an idea, maybe you could try using your wife's mobile phone (in case it's more modern than yours
Workshop isn't ideal though and depends heavily on how the game handles mods. For something like Bethesda games for example, it's downright trash. Mod Organizer is infinitely better for Bethesda games.
) when I noticed they are using Xbox Kinect for the interactive screens:
No feathers, no sale.I was visiting the Museum of Natural Sciences in Brussels today (lots of dino skeletons, yay!
So it seems Kinect is useful for something after all, ☺
I know people who were using kinect to assist in medical recovery (as in tracking if you were doing the correct excercices after an operation an stuff like that).
You know what happened? Sabi happened.
