Steam & Epic Games | Daily🤨 BrownDust2, the provocative gacha has officially landed on PC, but it won't be on Steam.
Studio GAMFS N put the PC build up on its official site as a FREE download after Valve's strict store rules cancelled the Steam release. It supports cross‑progression with the 2023 mobile version, but purchase/region swaps for payments are capped at 3 per account.

YvanI do not have a "radio valves" problem.
And I do not need one...
But just over the way in Peterborough: "Large amount of radio valves stored in containers in shed moving and don't want to go in skip"

I'm not sure what hashtags to put on #radio #valves lol... but yeah, if anyone wants a "large amount of rdio valves", there ya go. The post lacks... detail.
JdeBPHis and hers. There was a paper bag of waiting-to-be-properly-boxed #teeth as well. That was properly filed into the right box by the relative's other half. Obviously. One has to be tidy about these things.
And they're only 3 litre boxes, too. Not the 50 litre ones that I had to use for the #valves, #resistors, and extension cables.
⚠️ Heroic is shutting its Dota 2 division, the roster was disbanded after a financial MESS: prize pools cratered, sponsors bailed and commercial efforts flopped.
CGO Robin Nymann admits Dota 2 is extremely hard to monetize. TI 2025 paid only $2.8M, costs keep rising. Players plan to stay together, but the Western scene looks foggy ahead of Valve's upcoming Deadlock
The productiveness of fixing an almost three decades old segmentation fault bug in daemontools is going to be offset by yet another visit to the relative later to do yet more #ShedClearance.
Two questions for the amateur electronicists:
What could 1 person reasonably do with 50 litres of hoarded #valves, some of which are in slightly manky cardboard boxes with U.S.A. military datestamps from the 1940s?
Or 60 litres of hoarded #resistors, thousands of which are on their original paper ribbons?
Yes, I'm measuring in litres.
For those following along: The relative's other half has complained that xe cannot find the 2nd box of teeth. I had put them next to each other, in the same building for the first time in years.
Maybe one has eaten the other.
🤨 The leaked price for Valve's upcoming Steam Controller kicked off a backlash, fans furious after seeing a steep tag online.
With the market already packed with strong options like Sony's DualSense, the question is blunt: can Valve justify the premium, and what would make it worth the extra cash? REALLY.
