2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

I’m hoping that that ARM support on the new VR headset means a Steam Phone may be in the works.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 1 points 3 hours ago

I give it five to ten years.

steam machine is a cube

Or would you say it looks like a box... Maybe an Orange Box!?!

I'm calling it - a limited release where the black shell is orange and it comes bundled with HL3 for free.

I randomly kept my orange box case as a memento and found it recently. Lets find out if i can mod the steam machine to fit inside of it.

[–] plateee@piefed.social 2 points 15 hours ago

At a minimum if you still have the shirt (I lost mine years ago to a communal laundry room), you could wrap the steam machine with the shirt.

[–] BartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I know you’re joking, and that would be enough to get me to buy one even though I don’t really have a use case for it.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 7 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

I still have my boxed copy of the Orange Box on a shelf. It still sees use because every once in a while I get embroiled in a Kids These Days type of conversation and I need a prop to wave around.

I'd happily put an orange Gabecube right next to it.

[–] Creosm@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

That would be amazing

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 18 hours ago

Released on Wednesday (CET time). So on the third day of the week.

HL3, TF3, L4D3 as launch title for Steam Machine calling it right now. 😭😭😭😭

[–] themusicman@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

One of the shots of the steam machine had a "SoonTM" sticker

I like how you were so excited, you couldn’t decide whether you wanted to highlight or circle it

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 49 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

I was thinking about this in another thread where someone made this joke: With how much stuff Valve does outside of gaming, are we sure they have never done a 3rd iteration of something before? Like, they do business stuff too and are into a ton of random tech related things like BCIs. We only ever really hear about the game related stuff, tho. Or possibly when Gabe gets a new boat since they interview him on it.

[–] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 29 points 1 day ago (4 children)

You might just be overthinking a joke...

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 49 points 1 day ago

I'm just more committed to the bit.

They have definitely had third iterations of things, but have they called them 3?

I mean there are at least 5 half-life games, they just called the third one 1 and the fourth 2 and the fifth wasn't numbered.
