Saying it here too, nothing official cor the steam group this week. We can still try to get games together but no need to stress over getting a game started.

Fuck, I want to install steam os, but I know how much of a pain in the ass installing linux can be and I know better than to install a beta linux OS.

I feel like booting either Windows or Steam OS would be kinda nice to be able to do, assuming that Steam OS probably uses less computer power bits than Windows (as it's designed around gaming, I assume).

Right now it can't due to it being a beta, but it comes close though and that there are still frame skipping issues with the nvidia driver. It probably will be pretty good when it officially comes out in that a metric fuck ton of the problems with linux are long term issues that have known fixes, but for some reason the userbase doesn't actually want to implement the fixes.

That's my problem with linux, even though there's known fixes to the majority of the problems with it the fixes were never implemented.

Right about now valve is probably going-
"So let me get this straight. . . You knew about x problem for two years"
"Correct"
"You had a fix for it for said two years"
"Right"
"However, you never put the fix into the software updates?"
"Right again"

As much as I love linux the fact that so many problems with it with known fixes are never addressed makes me facepalm hard. Don't bother with steam os right now, cause there's a lot of problems with ubuntu(steam os is based off ubuntu) that they have to address first before they officially release steam os not in a beta form.

I'm kind of... greatly intimidated by its enormous size.

As in, it is as large as Horizons.

Actually going back to steam os for a second we may see more games come to steam os and linux cause directx is starting to receive less and less attention compared to opengl.

Blah blah blah long explanation. The short version is gaming developers are starting to look towards using opengl for games which is linux compatible so future AAA titles will be linux compatible and steam os compatible. Directx on the other hand is a windows program and not very good. Blah blah blah long explanation. To make it short directx isn't as OS friendly as opengl and directx has a lot of problems. . a lot of them.

What does this mean? While current generation of games will probably for the most part never have full compatibility with windows, mac and linux future gen games are now moving towards using opengl which is compatible with all three.

When steam os is officially released and steambox comes out everyone's going to be going, "valve fucked up and they're going to go bankrupt by the end of the year", when in reality it's a turtle vs the hare scenario in that they realize that opengl is coming to more games, steambox isn't going to be sold at a loss, and that when the other consoles start becoming dated they're just going to come out with newer versions of the steambox.

Tl:dr; Steambox and steam os when they first come out will be the little guy but in 4 or 5 years time when the xboxone, ps4, and wiiu start becoming dated steambox and steamos is going to be king instead.

Do kindly fuck off.

Anyway, still trying to write. Making slow progresses, but still getting distracted by other shit. Currently navigating in the fog without instruments as far as where I'm taking the story goes, even if I have a few ideas.

The thing is pretty much taking its own course right now.

I think I see what some authors say about "taking a setting, putting characters in it, and letting the story develop itself". This is pretty much what's occurring right now.

This said, I'm still wondering how exactly I'm going to go from "normal situation" to "effective start of the story". 'Cause right now it reads more as a Slice of Life thing. Which is interesting, don't get me wrong, but I'm not sure I'm going to last 100,000 words of that without it becoming pretty stale, pretty quick.

Just gotta work a bit more on the setting, I guess, to have a better idea of what buttons I could push to get the thing moving in interesting directions without it feeling too contrived.
