Made the switch to Aegis a little while back. I like it a lot.
Haha, he nearly passes out when he realizes he crashed the game. That kid is amazing.
Anyone who expected Starfield to win Most Innovative Gameplay, are you offering divination services to the public?
It was an easy call to make. Steam Awards are voted by the public, so it's all about name recognition.
The other finalists in that category were Shadow of Doubt, Contraband Police, Remnant II, and Your Only Move Is Hustle. Of all these, I had heard about Starfield and Remnant II.
I'm sure some of these games are awesome and I want to check them out by virtue of being finalists, but it was pretty clear Starfield was gonna win on brand recognition alone.
Steam Awards, like any publicly-voted award, is a name recognition contest.
Active users in the last six months. It will drop off when the usage peak is no longer included in the six-month period.
I tried this exact scenario and didn't see any difference in load times. I'm using an ad blocker and it's definitely sluggish, but switching to a Chrome user agent made no difference.
It's certainly more portable than a flamberge or partisan.
“Meng did nothing wrong, let her go with a quiet whisper not to come back”
That was absolutely not my read on it here. It's describing a realpolitik situation where Canada is on shaky legal grounds since they are not a signatory to a foreign embargo, and thus overreach their strict legal obligations to please an ally. The suggestion of letting Meng go isn't about her being right or wrong; it's about what's the savviest move Canada could have made here that would have neither pissed off China nor the U.S.
Simply refusing to act on behest of the Trump Administration and giving plausible deniability why isn't defying them. It's a neutral political move. The consequence of not doing so is what we've since experienced: deteriorating relations with a major foreign power with no gains in return with the ally we tried to suck up to.
the rest was just tooting China's horn
Is that what we're calling reporting on facts that don't completely feed the "China bad" narrative, now?
Linux users truly are the vegans of the tech world.
