Did anyone else notice that Apple has now reached Borat design level with their new iPhone Pocket? Even the price shows trolling potential. Also: I have started checking Etsy and Alibaba if and when people will adapt and offer the same style for below 50 US-Dollars/Euro. :-)

Steam Machine, Steam Frame and the new controller all look great. I would've wished for a beefier GPU for the Steam Machine (i like the name GabeBox btw), like a Navi 44. But hey, can't have everything I guess. Especially if it was about hitting a lower pricepoint. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmKr...

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Steam On Linux Gaming Finally Cracks 3% For October 2025
Steam on Linux use has hit an all-time high! With the Steam Survey results for October 2025 coming out this evening, Steam on Linux has finally cracked the 3% threshold! A few months back Steam on Linux was close to 3% before stumbling a bit but now it's above that elusive threshold. The only time Steam on Linux use was close to the 3% mark was when Steam on Linux initially debuted a decade ago and at that time the overall Steam user-base was much smaller than it is today. Long story short, thanks to the ongoing success of Valve's Steam Deck and other handhelds plus Steam Play (Proton) working out so well, these October numbers are the best yet...
