I thought that OS2 did this shit as well.

For once, an AC has left my speechless.

Hey now, at least Fox News released a statement telling you what is actually "News" and what is not. HuffPo is just all editorials that say they are news.

I fail to see how women being driven out of engineering jobs is keeping women form playing videogames. As for your first link, they throw out a lot of percentages, but they lack one huge, core thing - What are the percentage of female graduates from STEM fields? With the companies that they are getting on their case about hiring percentages, they fail to realize that the percentage of female graduates is only 20% of all STEM bachelors holders. So technically, they are pretty damn close to hiring what graduates from schools. I mean, if these numbers were closer to 5%, yeah, that would be a problem, but when 20% of STEM graduates are females, and the women working in STEM fields is around 20% at these companies, it seems like everything is where it should be.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and just say that if you are taking how you get modded too seriously, you probably need to back off the internet and get some fresh air.

Places like HuffPo and The Guardian still gamedrop at least once a week.

Sorry for the double post, but you are aware that there have been multiple, massive ethics breaches that have been uncovered. The movement is not related to a solitary event that you seem to think it has. And if we are talking about the same thing, nobody has ever refuted what was said. Taking the side you are taking in this also makes you a rape apologist.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

That is exactly why people don't listen to the aGGros that much.

The only console I'm considering buying right now is a PS4, due to Arc System Works not releasing anything on PC besides outdated versions of their fighting games... and KH3 if it gets released. I play mostly ARTS games right now (DotA and HoN are what I main), so switching to console for what I enjoy doesn't really seem to be in the future. I wouldn't mind playing FPS on a bigger screen and not huddled over my desk, though. I might enjoy it more on a big TV. I'm just too lazy to hook my PC up to it.

There also is the possibility that Linux gaming might finally mature, but I'm not holding my breath on that.

If you have used a Xim adapter, or something like it, you would understand why the analog spoofing is kinda a big thing I'd not want to see. They give more precision than a controller, but it takes a long time to get used to the quirks of using it.

Again, the Bass shoes that I bought have really strong soles, and are super comfortable. I spent 6 months in these shoes walking around a hospital or standing at a work station fixing it. The hospital was one of the huge medical centers, and it was like a half mile (or more) to just get to the other side of the building, and I was consistently walking everywhere. While it may not be a very long distance like some people's commute, I did put a ton of wear on the shoes and they are still going strong.

On Windows 8.1 Pro N, they had generic drivers for my WiFi card (some TrendNET POS card). Back in the day, I would agree with you that the Windows generic drivers were total trash, but with Win 8.1, it seems to be much better.

Speaking of Source 2, it should be released in full with some games at some point. Its already powering the DotA 2 Reborn client.

We'll see if they get actual support. The only time I'll move this goalpost is to say that when using keyboard and mouse, that the Mouse is read like an actual mouse, not Analog spoofing like a Xim adapter does. While they are quite nifty, the precision isn't there.

Also, I never said I'd be giving them money, I said we could have the discussion of moving to consoles as a major gaming platform.

The generic drivers work well enough until you can go and get the drivers from the vendor, so I don't see what the big deal is for turning it off.
