What? Surely seeing something popping up on steam and buying it happens far more than someone spontaneously buying a game in a store when walking around town/ a mall.

Maybe I'm a recluse, but I can't remember last time I went into a store that stocks a meaningful amount of games other than second hand shops. Are physical games really that large of a margin anymore?

So there's a lot of text under the criticism section, And I'm sure my argument against it is nothing new, but wouldn't the operation and monitoring of the door take some energy? Even in a "friction less spherical cow" perfect world, removing the cost of operating the door seems to be a bit of a stretch.

What are the arguments for it really?

Okay Satan, calm down.

Yes. Pedantically (as if this is a real language to begin with) it would be "Trick AND NOT Treat".

I've never quite gotten into wine either. I like most stouts and porters. Bit anything too hopy in my bear and it's going in the sink. Shame with the whole IPA revolution going on. Other than that cider and cocktails are the only thing I really enjoy consuming. Everything from the sweet Swedish Briska to the most fermented fresh pressed apple cider goes down without much problem.

One of my favorite Let's Play games. I tried to play it myself for 5 minutes before hard noping out. I've become a bit braver since my teens, so maybe I should give it a shot myself some day.

But it's amazing to see just how far you can push HL's engine.

Oh the battery status would be handy, thanks for the tip!

I'm not a massive fan of the lean mechanic. I haven't played the game, but it usually just either slows down the game or it becomes an obligation to continuously wiggle back and forth. Maybe if something like csgo's jump/duck penalty was in place to make repeated actions slow you down instead.

My wooting keyboard's management software has an official appimage that works perfectly fine.

The same can't be said for the Logitech Pro Superlight. I honestly haven't tried running G Hub under wine. But having a quick look around there seems to be pretty straight forward solutions out there to program Logitech devices.

Yeah that's something I do sometimes as well. I usually just don't vote on a comment as a third option for when I disagree with them, but don't want to punish having a different viewpoint ^^

In addition to what others said, in comments the down vote is meant to be used on comments that don't further discussion in good faith.

I used to subscribe to that idea, but I've since changed my mind. If the far majority use upvotes to mean agreement, then me upvoting a controversial, but well structured, opinion will likely be viewed as agreement as well.

It's a nice idea to think the voting system is meant to promote discussion, instead of homogenise opinions in a community.

I see it as it's easy to self host. But I'm not skilled nor rich enough to guarantee the availability of it. I don't want to be stuck on a holiday without my passwords because my server back home died from black out or what have you.

I pay for bitwarden and the proton mail package to keep the password management market a bit more competitive and it actually works out cheaper. It would be nice to have protons anonymous emails built in, but I can live with it.

But I might have to reconsider if Bitwarden is going a different direction that what I'm paying for.

But it seems to only do this in the home tab. Search and subscription tabs still show the view count.

Now I don't think view count is much of an indication of quality for a video, but the number of likes even less so. It varies quite a bit even on video to video from the same creator depending on if a like is called out for, or audience type.

Certainly not the most egregious change they've made, but a bit of an odd one I can't quite figure out why.
