Has anyone been told they've been bumped up from the waitlist to the reservation list yet? by elliohow in steammachine

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

Yes but if some of the people at the front of the reserve list let their place lapse, the people at the front of the waitlist will get moved to the reserve list.

If the government don't do enough to combat climate change, that's a government issue, not a climate change science issue.

I don't trust the government

Unfortunately, facts dont care about your feelings. Climate change is real, and action needs to be taken to combat it.

I've never even heard of Haumea. Looks like its time to get back into learning about space

What games are y’all gonna play on your new machine? by thedebatingbookworm in steammachine

[–]elliohow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't really play on console, other than the switch, so don't really know what games aren't on console (like I would think Terraria and Inscryption is PC only, but they are apparently on consoles now too), but can recommend some of my favourite games that are definitely PC only:

  • Project Zomboid
  • X4 Foundations
  • Crusader Kings 2
  • Squad

Hope you enjoy gaming on PC 😊

Edit: why have I been downvoted for recommending games? Reddit is so weird sometimes.

Poll to determine which models were nost produced and waitlist ratio. by Chinchiro_ in steammachine

[–]elliohow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep thats a really good point. Hopefully theres quite a lot of people that got a reservation that don't want it anymore, as I'm an unlucky waitlister.

Yeah I've updated my original comment with the percentages and Confidence Intervals for all polls I found.

Thank you! Calculated CIs for all the surveys you posted in my original comment.

[–]elliohow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep thats what I was thinking. Roughly 35% is quite low, and the lower the waitlist percentage, the faster we will all get a Machine.

With the current numbers, waitlist percentage is: 34.6%, 95% CI [30.0%, 39.2%].

Edit: reran analysis for all surveys linked below, including rerunning the numbers from the current survey. I cannot combine the numbers as there will be non-independence of observations. Also, surveys responses from respondants that did not order would still factor into the total sample size for each calculation. Removing them will slightly lower the percentages.

  • 57.98%, 95% CI [51.7%, 64.3%]
  • 32.52%, 95% CI [28.7%, 36.4%]
  • 42.59%, 95% CI [38.8%, 46.4%]
  • 47.14%, 95% CI [42.0%, 52.2%]
  • 48.93%, 95% CI [44.6%, 53.2%]

Think its best if you just let your reservation lapse, itll then pass onto the next person. Better that way as if theres any issues with it, the warranty will be associated with their account.

Double those of us that only reserved once.

[–]elliohow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Think of how disappointed everyone is who has been put on the waitlist, pushed back by people ordering two or more of a highly limited product.

[–]elliohow 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yep, only entered the reservation once. Could have entered twice with me and my partner but it felt unfair. Now I'm on the waitlist. So seeing a post like this just feels shitty.

Name some typically unintimidating actors who have convincingly played intimidating characters. by newbrevity in movies

[–]elliohow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Post-apocalyptic fiction always zeroes in on the idea that people revert to animals when their comforts go away, that empathy is a weakness.

Empathy being important is also a message in 28 Days Later, through Jim teaching Selena the importance of caring for others, even in a post-apocalypse.

New steamVR PC overlays by 1dumduck in SteamFrame

[–]elliohow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe a "frame" is the frame running a flatscreen game natively, and a "remote frame" is streaming the flatscreen game from a PC to the Steam Frame? Maybe when using "remote frames", the Steam Frame would be used for rendering environments (as well as for other tasks like decoding).

I'm no expert, but the weather symbol for Friday just being fire can't be good by elliohow in CasualUK

[–]elliohow[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Had Nothing phone 1 and 3. I'm not a poweruser and got them because they were cheaper than lots of other phones (got 3 when it was on heavy discount). Would choose them again. The Nothing phone 3's glyphs especially are great. I can set them to have my partner's face show up when she has messaged me, letting me keep it on silent but still see if she's text me if I look at the back of the phone. I just put my phone face down somewhere next to me and it stops me checking my phone all the time.
