They work really well in third-person games for camera control. I beat Elden Ring on a Steam controller; you have a lot more speed and precision than with a stick.

I believe they reverted the power-up on Bluetooth activation (for LCD models) previously, but they reimplemented it in a recent patch.

It seems to be even from the Steam menu.

Thanks for the advice.

I looked around for ways to turn it off, but I might have just missed it. I appreciate the help.

It seems fine, no issues.

Good point, I should have added that info up front.

I’m running stock SteamOS, and it’s an early LCD model. It even happens when I’m home alone.

Gee, I wonder why other countries would not want to move production to the US after ICE arrested the Koreans who were doing exactly that?

No way to know, I guess.

I don’t read many comics, but there was a Wonder Twins run by Mark Russell that was amazing.

The villain had a plan to scramble everyone’s identity on Earth, so one day you could wake up and be in a horrible economic situation. His thinking was that with the deadline approaching, people would have to work to make the world more fair for everyone.

Looks like they just added it in the new release. We should get you to ask for world peace next time, but this is pretty good too.

Thanks for the recommendation. I bookmarked this comment in case they put ads in the app that I paid money for years ago. I got the ad update today, so I switched.

Hell yeah, these are such great games.

Reactionaries decry “identity politics,” because it’s literally all they have; they’re the ones pushing to make their list of prescribed identities the only socially acceptable ones.

They loathe women who jump their station and get a “man’s job.” They’re disgusted by trans people who won’t accept their assignment to either pump out babies for the oligarchy or mainain white Christian supremacy. They’re enraged by immigrants who “don’t belong.”

The identity that they care about most though is “conservative.” You can get away with anything so long as you fly that particular freak flag and pretend to apologize. They’re narrow-minded bigots who should be ostracized in any civilized society.

Assetto Corsa is a steal at $5. It’s a bit older, but there is a ton of community-made content.

Wow, they really got the chatbot to sound like a right-wing debate bro shithead. They must have had a lot of training data laying around somewhere.

When you ride alone, you ride with MechaHitler.

I still cry when I remember that they were clearing them out at $5 a pop. I’ll cling to mine until the day it dies.

UFO50 is one of the most astonishing pieces of game design I’ve ever seen; its a master class in elegance.

They updated it in September:

Family Sharing enables you to play games from other family members’ libraries, even if they are online playing another game. If your family library has multiple copies of a game, multiple members of the family can play that game at the same time. For a more detailed look at how Family Sharing works, see the FAQ below.
