Malware distribuiti tramite un gioco su Steam.

Solitamente i malware vengono nascosti nelle versioni pirata distribuite tramite fonti non ufficiali. Stavolta era presente in un gioco pubblicato su Steam. Un cybercriminale, noto come EncryptHub, ha installato tre malware nell’eseguibile di Chemia. Valve non ha risposto alla richiesta di informazioni, ma il gioco è stato rimosso dalla sua popolare piattaforma.

Personally, I have a Visa issued through Chase. I called the number on the back of my card to let Chase know that their partner Visa harming their product, and I was considering canceling my card over Visa doing Collective Shout's censorious dirty work.

I also called Visa directly on the 800 number to let them know that I intentionally chose to use my American Express card instead of my Visa for my purchases in the last week because Visa allowed themselves be the club for some religious fundamentalists and their agenda to impose censorship on everyone else.

I'll probably email AmEx too to encourage them to not take part in this stupid exercise in morality imposition.

ffs with people blaming #valve for the #steam censorship? are you people serious?
clearly people do not get the monopoly that payment processors have over literally every industry in every country, and have never heard of the payment processing mafia

valve is the moral peak of the 'gaming industry', it only goes downhill from there unless you're going to buy directly from the author with, i guess, cash in an envelope.

Steam testuje nowy wygląd sklepu. Ma być łatwiej znaleźć interesujące gry

Platforma Steam rozpoczęła testy przeprojektowanego menu swojego sklepu cyfrowego. Nowy wygląd, dostępny obecnie dla uczestników programu Steam Client Beta, ma na celu uproszczenie nawigacji i ułatwienie graczom odkrywania nowych gier.

Główną zmianą jest zastąpienie obecnego, zatłoczonego układu linków tekstowych przez bardziej uporządkowane menu na górze strony. Nowe przyciski pozwalają na szybkie przeglądanie gier według kategorii takich jak bestsellery czy nowości, a także na dostęp do spersonalizowanych rekomendacji opartych na bibliotece i czasie gry użytkownika. Dedykowany przycisk kategorii pozwala z kolei na przeglądanie ulubionych gatunków i sugerowanych tagów.

Przebudowano również funkcję wyszukiwania, która teraz domyślnie pokazuje najpopularniejsze hasła, ostatnio oglądane gry i najczęściej wybierane gatunki. Jak zauważają twórcy, żadna z tych funkcji nie jest nowa, ale odświeżony wygląd sklepu ma sprawić, że dostęp do nich będzie znacznie łatwiejszy.

W oficjalnym wpisie na blogu Steam stwierdzono, że celem zmian jest „uczynienie doświadczenia płynniejszym i bardziej dopasowanym do potrzeb” oraz ułatwienie dostępu do najczęściej odwiedzanych miejsc na platformie. Aktualizacja interfejsu pojawia się jednak w czasie, gdy część społeczności wyraża niezadowolenie z powodu niedawnej zmiany polityki Steama, która doprowadziła do usunięcia z platformy wielu gier z treściami dla dorosłych.

Nowy wygląd sklepu pozostaje na razie w fazie testów. Gracze, którzy chcą go wypróbować i podzielić się swoją opinią, mogą to zrobić, dołączając do programu Steam Client Beta w ustawieniach klienta platformy.

Replied in thread

@rolle I had this revelation about ... I think four years ago, when I suddenly realized Skyrim works out of the box on Linux Steam, and not just works but runs perfectly, and at least as fast. It never crashed a lot for me on Windows either, but it has never done it on Linux. And when you take away the PITA of rebooting to Windows and suffering through hours of upgrade churn and reboots and all just to play a game on a rainy day, I rediscovered my long lost love for gaming again.

GTA 5 also worked just fine when I tried it, but I didn't care for it enough for a proper replay. And incredibly, so did BG3 and Cyberpunk 2077. On a 14 year old desktop PC that is way underspecced for either. These two push the display adapter hard enough that it reveals some thermal management issues in the driver/hardware, I need to force it to stay out of the high power states to prevent occasional crashes. Mildly annoying but far, far less so than rebooting to Windows to play a game.

Valve has done an *incredible* job on improving the Linux gaming experience, not just on packaging all the wacko Wine tricks for running games neatly out of sight and mind in Steam, but also general infrastructure work in the kernel, vulkan and whatnot.
