Was a good watch. No gaming differences for now between Win10 & Win8 but will likely change in future once DX12 gets adopted more.
Watched their "The Compensator" - Our most insane build ever! Man, that started all dreamy but turned problematic very quick. They did put in crazy stuff though. 4-way TitanX, 128GB DDR4.
Can't put my finger on it but watching videos of PC being build is a lot of fun.

What's the point of playing a PS2Xbox game @ 4K, unless you're downsampling?
I mean, even if it was just render at 4k and downsample to 1440/1080p or whatever, you'd just get rid of some of the jaggies/aliasing, right?
China.
I'm on the awesome list forever and you know it. Also despite sinking 17ish hours into FF XIII I'm still only in Grapa Whitewood and Fang has only been introduced in a cutscene so been a but hard to get any pics you know (check my chievos if you think I'm fibbing). But just for you when I do pick XIII up again I'll bombard the thread with uber high resolution Fang pics. Happy?

when is Valve doing away with this again?

None.
Hah. I probably wouldn't have even played between now and then. This seems a pretty consistent sale, though. Just happened recently that it was $6, what's up with that?
Yeah:

Yes. Fang's the best.
Since you had pics of FFXIII-2, which most people wouldn't have started until they finised FFXIII, I thought you'd finished FFXIII.
The ETA at Steam Dev Days was late last year/early this year. That's Valve Time for you. The two biggest roadblocks have yet to be removed (release state changes and CD key generation are still done at Valve's end), so it's anyone's guess as to when Valve plans on moving to a fully automated system.
Finished both on my filthy PS3 so knew what I was letting myself in for. Only managed the first couple of hours of Lightning Returns though before that went back on the shelf. If my crazy plan not to buy anything new this years actually happened I might have actually finished them both on PC by now but alas I keep on hoovering up games before finishing the ones I've bought previously. Saying that stuck my head in the 52 Games in a Year thread earlier and it's surprising one of the better threads on Gaming Side. Good discussion, motivational support and chat between posters.

Yeah.
Chinese store, which offers a ROW copy.
If anyone wants to try it again, add me on Steam. The sale is till 17th it seems.

Hey, I'm starting to get a migraine so I'm going to lay down. Not going to be able to make the game night, apologize for the trouble.
This is so cool! Congrats on it.
I should really get more into Rocket League. I love it.
Noo, you don't say! Another one I missed.
Isn't it really rough though?
It reminds me a lot of RS: Siege, maybe I should give it a try in multiplayer.

Oh crap, just realized that KF2 will collide with the opening match of the Bundesliga and if there's one thing I love more than KF it's BAAAAYYYEEERRRNNNN. So yeah.

Linus Tech Tips has so many interesting videos. Can't stop watching. They do stuff what I was imagining. All kinds of ludicrous builds.

I'm sure he's a nice guy but something about Linus does my nut in. Plus the product placement in all of his vids urgh. I know the dude has got to get paid but some of it is so random. Logan and the chaps over at Tek Syndicate do some interesting vids and even though he can be a right berk TTL from OC3D is something I pop on in the background for shits and giggles when having a load of work on. I mean come on look at this monster cooling solution!!!

Top tip do watch to the very, very end
Only annoying thing they do is their sometimes pretty bad product placement though I understand why they do it (they need money and sponsorships to stay afloat) and in some videos playing of for the PCMasterrace dudes with some dank memes(Which I mostly feel is dumb).
I really enjoyed their junkyard vids and their mineral oil build if you havn't watched them.
also techsyndicate is a great channel that is doing the "same" things as LinusTechTips does as Dr dogg said.

Linus' videos have too much filler with him talking loudly about nothing and waving his arms around, you can usually skip the first minute(s) and there wasn't much real content in that W10 video overall.
A migraine isn't a legit excuse.

I guess that this actually could be good:

Edit. Yeah, I guess they'll get a C&D from from S-E soon

Im awful at KF2, and im way low leveled.. but I wouldn't mind giving it a shot with you guys,
That's dumb by them, they'll get C&D from SE within a day.
If fan projects will ever survive like this they have to show it when it's finished not before.
The Gsync/FreeSync video from a few weeks back must've been the worst offender yet. They showed like 3mins of actual comparison stuff which didn't sound all too conclusive, the other 10mins they were roaming around in their house. Usually like his videos but that was just a waste of time. I really enjoy Lukes content though.
Rising Tide is now available on Nuuvem with a 17% discount for the preorder.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
So to my absolute surprise, I got an email from Mozilla a few minutes ago saying that Enhanced Steam 7.3 had been signed. I've uploaded the new (signed) version to the website.
I feel like a bit of an idiot because I forgot to increment the version number, meaning it won't (yet) automatically update for people that already have it installed. So if your using a newer version of Firefox that requires extensions to be signed, feel free to go re-download the extension from the website and it should be working now.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
It feels like a Counter Strike mod in a lot of ways. I'm not sure I'd call it rough--it seems to have stopped crashing so much with the last hotfix. It's not pretty and there's only two maps, but I'm finding it pretty mechanically satisfying so far. Mix of weapons for all ranges, neat gadgets and nades. Matches are fast and tense. Haven't run into any horribly overpowered or just plain frustrating tactics yet, which I feel like I can't say about a lot of multiplayer games. Doubt that can last. The map design feels pretty solid, look forward to seeing more levels.
No idea how they're gonna monetize it or build on it. There's greyed out options for redeeming codes and an inventory system.
For only putting time into it, I feel like I've gotten a lot out of it in only two or so days of playing.

Yeah being that it's still version 7.3 and over 3 months old - Valve has made a lot of changes since that version released. Expect bugs.

Haha, the ads threw me off a little as I didn't know they were doing stuff like that. Was wondering why he was gloating about a keyboard in a video testing 2-4-way SLI.I'm sure he's a nice guy but something about Linus does my nut in. Plus the product placement in all of his vids urgh. I know the dude has got to get paid but some of it is so random.

OC3D TV. Great tip. Will take a look at them.
Thank you also for recommendations.
Very pleasant surprise. Redownloaded. It's no 7.7 but it's way better than vanilla.

It just means you'll be able to continue using the outdated version of Enhanced Steam with newer Firefox browsers (rather than it being completely disabled in Firefox 41 and up).
I'm still debating if I should sink the time into doing a "maintenance release" and fixing a few of the bugs that have popped up like JaseC mentioned. A 15 hour turnaround time from Mozilla is better than the 3-4 weeks it used to take. I'm just worried about doing that because I know I'll get hit with "Why didn't you add X feature from the Chrome version?" and so forth.
Either way I decide, nothing is happening with ES for Firefox until 7.8 is out on Chrome.

Steam website has a new mobile design. Seems nice so far
I would generally advocate for doing what you think will help the majority of your users while ignoring the constant requests. I think it'll help create an overall better product and help you to maintain your sanity.

Well this is good news. They should have an 'approved developer' list where they will manually verify an extension once (or possibly a few times) but eventually whitelist good devs and let their extensions go through automatically. That's not to say that devs can't go rogue later on down the line but there has to be a line they draw unless they're keen on manually checking every single line of source code that will ever be sent to them.
Hopefully they behave reasonably towards you and other devs and that in turns brings back some of the good addons they were almost certainly going to lose with their policy.
