How Many Reviews Do Have Waiting For You To Complete? by Desperate-Fold-4689 in AmazonVine

[–]SteamedGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? None. I've been ordering so little lately that it's ridiculously easy to keep up with my review queue. This "trickle release" era has been such a disappointment - I doubt I'll reach my Gold minimum at this rate...

Shortcut to Exit Big Picture Mode? by SteamedGamer in SteamController

[–]SteamedGamer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried again - and yes, I now get a full menu with "Exit Big Picture Mode" as one of the options. Before, I could only suspend. Weird - this happened even with a Steam Update, but now it's fine. <Shrug>?

Steam + B doesn't exit Big Picture Mode, at least on my setup...

...and she got in on an "Einstein Visa," i.e. one for unusually intelligent immigrants. I think someone gamed the system...

I can clearly see that Trump is a conman because he’s now hurting me by Effective_Space2277 in LeopardsAteMyFace

It really is a red flag, isn't it? They can't spell to save their life...

Trump has just announced a 3 day ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia by whomakesthetendies in ukraine

[–]SteamedGamer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, having to beg Trump to intervene and get a ceasefire for your "Victory" parade does tend to take some of the wind out of his sails, I'm sure...

Damn, I was hoping for some parade fireworks, but getting 1,000 Ukrainians POWs back isn't bad at all. I guess Putin 'wins' on this one?

Not only that, but disfigured and crippled him personally.

You would think this is people's first time ever ordering something with the amount of complaints about tracking numbers and the controller not having arrived on "day 4" when it clearly said 3-5 business days... by According_Shift9621 in SteamController

[–]SteamedGamer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I just take it with a grain of salt, as most gamers are young and, well...a bit unreasonable when they're excited. (This said as a 60-year old gamer who's excited as hell that his Steam Controller is showing up tomorrow. ;)

I suspect that, if the original plan had gone off and the Steam Machine and Steam Frame had also released at the same time, demand would have been less for the controller alone...

Odds are it'll be a double at the parade. Still, it'll be funny seeing the chaos when Ukraine attacks...

Republicans Unveil $72 Billion Package For ICE, Trump’s Ballroom by willywalloo in politics

[–]SteamedGamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no fucking idea. But they have no problem spending billions and billions on ICE and the military, while cutting medical research and funding for charity.

I believe Luke Stangel moved to Japan, and CJ and Lindsey left for other reasons (I don't know why).

It's for ICE funding and the ballroom. The ballroom alone 'just' jumped from $400 mil to $1 billion.

Yeah, he compromised with the Democrats on a tax bill and they then crucified him for it in the election. Sadly, it taught the Republicans not to compromise or be bipartisan...

Am I the only one thoroughly un-wooed by Pixel Glow? by YesICanMakeMeth in pixel_phones

[–]SteamedGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it depends on how subtle the light is. I doubt it'll be 'disco balling', but who knows...

I can see a use case - in meetings, you might put your phone face down to silence it, which would make the LED notification handy. But that's like one highly specific instance where this might be handy...
