What is even the point of this? This is the kind of thing that's only interesting if it's a flex, a showcase of one's mastery and skill. And it's so clearly not here. So... why...

Now that the excitement has died down a bit, it's worth pointing out that Steam Frame and Machine aren't going to be cheap. They framed (sic!) the price range for Frame as "no more than Index" at this point, which is really telling as far as points of reference go.
Valve is a boutique vendor.

According to Valve, they managed to run pretty much all x86 games (so far) on their new ARM-based PCs thanks to this FOSS project:
github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX
This runs together with Proton to seamlessly transcode Windows x86 games for Steam OS on ARM. FOSS is THAT cool!

It's not really a fair comparison, because volume and global reach will never be even remotely the same for these two, but...
It's incredibly amusing that 2025 is the year Microsoft/Xbox gave up on gaming hardware, and Valve just quadrupled its offering, touching every market.

Steam Machine has just 8 GB of VRAM? That's pretty little by "modern AAA" standards. I mean, I wish it was a reasonable amount, but alas.

So are those trackpads operated sideways? Your thumbs are going to be at 90 degrees compared to sticks and d-pad, so you'd need to move the thumb sideways for an upwards flick, right?
Also, gotta say, original Steam Controllers looked much cooler.

🪇 So what's everyone using to make sound effects for their games? I don't mean simple bonks and zinks, but more complex, layered effects.
Packs are an option, of course, but even then you might need to mix things up (and also you might need to go through a lot of packs).

I'm perpetually sad that the audio server in Godot is not on the same level of usability as other servers. For a brief period of time we had an audio maintainer who was refactoring everything, but then there was none, and you are still bound to use nodes for everything. Heavy, verbose nodes.

Despite the abundance of night, or otherwise dark, scenes, Del Toro's Frankenstein is perfectly vibrant and clear during home viewing. I dunno if Netflix puts special care in compression for their main pieces, but I'm going to say it's the visual mastery of Del Toro and his DP which are key.

Hey! Thinking about making a little free claw machine game with pixel art from different artists (16x16 or 8x8). Just checking if you'd be interested in contributing? Everyone gets credited, just a fun side project. No pressure! #pixelart

Providing a 32-bit Windows version of Bosca Ceoil Blue costs me nothing, except for an occasional comment from a distressed user who gets a false positive from their AV over some binary fingerprint match 🫤

Isn't it a silly situation when you make something default because "so many people like it", completely ignoring that those who don't like, don't use, or don't care won't be actually running around and being loud about how much they don't like or don't care for it?
