What happens when you connect win xp to the net nowadays? Genuine question.

I liked the little demon with sneakers better.

Desktop mode is a nice extra because Valve are generally nice. But it’s not what the purpose of SteamOS is. It’s just an aside. The same way you can get a shell on your wifi camera. And you could run some silly servers on it. But that’s not the point of your camera.

SteamOS is just there to run one single application: Steam. Users see absolutely nothing of Linux. It could be running MacOS or BeOS or TempleOS and it wouldn’t make the slightest difference to them.

Not that it’s a bad thing, it confirms that Linux is stable and mature and that you can use it for an appliance, but that’s pretty much it. And yes, you can bypass the Steam interface and run a KDE desktop (is that the UX you think of? it’s available on any Linux and pretty much any Unix-like desktop), which is nice of Valve to have included. But except for the .1% who will toy with it, there isn’t really much point (and yes, I did toy with it end enabled ssh, and added a few gadgets). I still wouldn’t install SteamOS as a desktop system though. That’s not what it’s made for.

Will they take cool pictures for instagram?

Maybe that’s how the law is written (I have no idea if that’s the reason, but it’s a possibility given how stupid some of our laws can be).

They were very briefly liberated.

Reptiles have hemisex!

“unexpected item in the tickle area”

Which rulebook is that?

How about US consumers?

Sorry, I thought you wanted crunchier pets.

Also if you don’t have the Facebook or instagram apps on your phone.

But why?

It’s for scientific research though.

Doesn’t the towel get wet?

I’ll try a backstab!

I know, back then people knew what files and directories were. Good times.

All those wondrous IDEs were nowhere to be found 20 years ago, especially if you didn’t run windows. While Emacs did it all and more.

So yes, you had to read the documentation. That’s what we did back then. We still do it when someone can be arsed to write one.

So, you’ve never actually used Emacs?

And possibly also never used vi either?
