No shit sherlock.

That's the point. What they are targeting like I said is breaking into the console market. That is they want to become a console platform (as well as a PC platform).

I am not sure where you get that idea from? Reading comprehension fail perhaps?

Valve's long term goal right now is clearly to compete in the console market. That is their target. It does not mean that they will ignore PC (as some suggest), but simply that their focus is on the console.

Since when did "Steam" = "PC" anyway? No, it is you sir who has access to the really good stuff, and you are clearly smoking it.

I will switch for HL3. I would install windows 10 to play it.

But I am one data point. What you're missing is that Valve is not targeting PC gamers right now. They're trying to break into the console market, where nobody cares what the OS is, as long as it works. Linux gaming is a fringe benefit. So you're both right and wrong. People won't change their OS, but they might buy steam machines...

In the short term. Maybe not so much in the long term. These things are not so simple.

I will install windows 10 for Half Life 3. I will hate myself, but I'll do it.

Impressively, X-COM Enemy Unknown not only manages to melt my squad into zombies, but also melt my laptop into slag under linux but not windows with AMD proprietary drivers. Otherwise, I am quite happy with the performance of games on linux. Most seem more than acceptable.

OpenSUSE for Debian...

Stop reading tfa... What is this 1999?

Wow. You are way too emotionally invested in this.

Be more like Spock..

You have taps in your house right?

(It's a joke, don't kill me)

This. A million times this.

Thanks for the heads up on that one. This is a show-stopper bug for me. I was considering the path forward from Windows 7. It appears there isn't one.

A lot of power companies use pumped storage. Pump water up a hill with excess power, run it back down when demand is high.

Ok, lets take belief(in anything) out of this. This has little to do with belief, and everything to do with greed, and people ignoring facts and long term consequences because it is firstly inconvenience and secondly will interfere with their ability to partially satisfy their greed. Do you follow my point now?

They pay lip service to religion(because right now that is popular). As it becomes less so (quite likely in America), they will start to pay lip service to other popular ideas. They are after all merely reflecting the image of their voters to try and retain what they have.

You were marked as a troll, unfairly, but you have to realize you are connecting things that are not really connected. They merely give the appearance of a link.

Actually, that is a particularly un-Christian position. The bible they claim to believe is fairly clear that humans are responsible for the state of the world, and are to be good stewards. I suspect it has less to do with religion and more to do with that root of all kinds of evil : the love of money.
