@MischiefsYT Same i’m still of the first charge and it’s been a week, battery at 70% rn 😂 the dualsense needs a charge every two days

I've had my Steam Controller for a week now and it's easily the best one I've ever used. I have almost no complaints and the battery life on this thing is so insane that I haven't needed to charge it yet.

@Deck_Ready Same lol

🤞 I wake up to a shipped Steam Controller tomorrow.

@DestinLegarie I don’t know if living in Italy gave me access to a different stock than US, but i got lucky and made the transaction at 10:03 pst, cause half an hour later it was already out of stock

Had this in my cart. Steam wouldn't let me check out. Inventory gone. About what I expected tbh.

Our robot is designed to insert hundreds of ultra-fine, flexible threads with thousands of electrodes within microns of targeted neurons while avoiding vasculature and adapting to real-time brain motion.

@GlennQuagmire32 @SteamFrameOut I was having a heart attack

@SteamFrameOut I will find you…

NO WAY

“When you haven’t heard someone talk for four years, the thought that they might be able to talk again was mind blowing."

This is the best articulation of pro-Western values that I’ve heard from a leader. Marco Rubio delivered it with both the directness and grace we sorely need. The West is special and worth fighting for, even if many Westerners have forgotten that.

@JakeSucky Hat's off to the devs for trying something new. Seems to me like it needs some work, they maybe should've had more closed tests, but still it's f2p. They will get all the feedback they need during the launch. Let's just hope they have the legs to go the distance

How Highguard works: - Two teams of Wardens, 3v3 - Use shield breaker to raid enemy base - Magical abilites "supplement combat" - Variety of home bases to choose from - Find and upgrade loot throughout - Blow up generators to destroy enemy base

@wolfyvelvet @Sweetzluf I remember leaving Velen thinking “this story is unbelievably good” and then entering Novigrad and being like “omg i can even change hairstyle now? This game has it all” 😂 i’m waiting the Steam Machine for a new playthrough

@Sweetzluf especially after velen and its dirty ass swamps the ambience of novigrad feels like such a vibe

visiting novigrad after so long and i feel like something inside me healed

@UploadVR Great article, makes me want to try out the Frame when it eventually comes out. I've never been interested in VR before, but the way Valve describes it and the way they do business in general is very inspiring.

Valve's promise with Steam Frame begins with open source: uploadvr.com/flatpaks-open-…

@eastdakota @Cloudflare I'm italian and i approve this message

Surprised how many prominent Italian techies are DMing me to suggest we should just block access to everyone in the country to everything behind @Cloudflare for a week. Even I hadn’t considered going that far, but it does make you think about what would break if we did. #FAFO

Yesterday a quasi-judicial body in Italy fined @Cloudflare $17 million for failing to go along with their scheme to censor the Internet. The scheme, which even the EU has called concerning, required us within a mere 30 minutes of notification to fully censor from the Internet any sites a shadowy cabal of European media elites deemed against their interests. No judicial oversight. No due process. No appeal. No transparency. It required us to not just remove customers, but also censor our 1.1.1.1 DNS resolver meaning it risked blacking out any site on the Internet. And it required us not just to censor the content in Italy but globally. In other words, Italy insists a shadowy, European media cabal should be able to dictate what is and is not allowed online. That, of course, is DISGUSTING and even before yesterday’s fine we had multiple legal challenges pending against the underlying scheme. We, of course, will now fight the unjust fine. Not just because it’s wrong for us but because it is wrong for democratic values. In addition, we are considering the following actions: 1) discontinuing the millions of dollars in pro bono cyber security services we are providing the upcoming Milano-Cortina Olympics; 2) discontinuing Cloudflare’s Free cyber security services for any Italy-based users; 3) removing all servers from Italian cities; and 4) terminating all plans to build an Italian Cloudflare office or make any investments in the country. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. While there are things I would handle differently than the current U.S. administration, I appreciate @JDVance taking a leadership role in recognizing this type of regulation is a fundamental unfair trade issue that also threatens democratic values. And in this case @ElonMusk is right: #FreeSpeech is critical and under attack from an out-of-touch cabal of very disturbed European policy makers. I will be in DC first thing next week to discuss this with U.S. administration officials and I’ll be meeting with the IOC in Lausanne shortly after to outline the risk to the Olympic Games if @Cloudflare withdraws our cyber security protection. In the meantime, we remain happy to discuss this with Italian government officials who, so far, have been unwilling to engage beyond issuing fines. We believe Italy, like all countries, has a right to regulate the content on networks inside its borders. But they must do so following the Rule of Law and principles of Due Process. And Italy certainly has no right to regulate what is and is not allowed on the Internet in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, China, Brazil, India or anywhere outside its borders. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT FIGHT AND WE WILL WIN!!!

@geoffkeighley I tought it was really entertaining to watch, i used to skip forward but a lot of games this time peaked my interest. Looking forward to next year 🙏🏻

Thanks for watching The Game Awards. How would you grade this year’s show?

@bmwisswell @Asmongold @DoNotWorryPod Rage is not rational, i’m not saying Ethan is morally superior, i’m saying i can understand where he’s coming from.

@Poul36 @Asmongold @DoNotWorryPod Who did that? Or did some other random person do it and everyone condemn it but Ethan and you fucking retards use it as a shield to justify his actions?

Ethan Klein, just drop the lawsuits. You are ruining peoples lives and your own life in the process. End this fucking cycle once and for all. Jesus Christ man.

@Asmongold @DoNotWorryPod They sent social services to his house dude.. to take away his children.. i’m not even a father yet and i understand the infinite rage that could cause if i were him

@DoNotWorryPod All you do is talk shit about Ethan, why would he look for your approval? Don't believe me, search this and read the posts yourself from:donotworrypod ethan You're not asking in good faith, you want to lie about and misrepresent someone while portraying yourself as a victim

@TimSweeneyEpic Maybe Valve made the right call choosing to build a less powerful Steam Machine, for I believe in the coming years developers will focus more on smaller systems optimization rather than sheer graphical fidelity. This + shader caching could bring UE5 to express it’s full potential

RAM price increases will be a real problem for high-end gaming for several years. Factories are diverting leading edge DRAM capacity to meet AI needs where data centers are bidding far higher than consumer device makers.

@carygolomb I believe Valve know something that we don’t at this point.. it’s impossible to play at 4K/60 w/ FSR 3 on UltraPerf and call it “a good enough experience”. They HAVE TO know something about FSR4 support on RDNA3 that we still don’t.

So. The path for Steam Machine to use FSR4 with RDNA3 seems...basically there. But it's not enabled by default and has to be built with those flags enabled. I guess we'll see if Valve enables this for Steam Machine

@RamenEnjoyers13 @eurogamer WITH a controller too 😂😂

@eurogamer You're living in a fantasy land if you think its gonna be $400 lol

"$400 with a controller. This would really send a message" One analyst on how Valve's Steam Machine could make the biggest impact on the games industry eurogamer.net/400-with-a-con…

@Puertorock77_ Even if it could be an industry game changer, we can’t expect it to be sold at a loss like Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo always do w/ their consoles. This is supposed to be a compact pc through and through.

If Steam Machine cost more than $500 than write it off at being a serious competitor. Even at $500 is a bit much.

If you want RayTracing or a solid 4k/60fps this is not the right rig for you, you should build a bigger machine. But if you already have/don’t care about the above, the Steam Machine IMO will be a great choice. We’ll see about pricing then

I’m looking through RX7600/i5 benchmarks to understand what the Steam Machine could be capable of. My prediction: - 1440p/60fps HIGH rock solid w/out FSR for titles just below UE5 - 1080p/60fps HIGH w/ FSR and FG for UE5 titles and forward (shader caching could matter more)
