TL;DR: Valve launched the Steam Frame VR headset with an Arm-based Snapdragon chip, aiming to run Half-Life: Alyx natively and streamed from PC. The new hardware features a "Frame Verified" status for optimized games, while rumors suggest two upcoming Half-Life titles supporting PC and VR cooperative play.

“Valve reportedly cooking”

Ever since “cooked” became a thing I have been unable to understand titles like this (or really the slang use of cook)

Based on the article, it looks like Valve is creating a native Linux version of the game.

    someone is cooking (in production) vs:

    someone cooked (completely did a thing)

    someone is cooked (game over, bad decisions were made, here comes the result)

    Thank you.

    At the risk of sounding like grandpa, I could have sworn in production used to be “is cooking UP” instead of just “is cooking”.

    The fluidity of language.
