Ah man, I completely forgot about DoD, also only played the retail version running the original Gold engine...
Can still hear the M1 clip ping...
My first game on Steam was Counter Strike, but I had already been playing the retail release for a while. They had some one-time activation to bring over your CD key. When they launched Steam, it was horrible. Remember, this was the time of single core processors (Pentium 4), so any anything that interrupted the cpu would effect your FPS. Plus it was buggy and crashed all the time.
I boycotted Steam and Valve and kept playing pre-steam CS 1.6 till the Orange Box came out. But TF2, Portal, and HL2 plus episode 1 was too good of a deal to pass up, and I had a new AMD Athlon that felt like a beast at the time.
Kinda sad I forgot my original account, would have been neat to have an account as old as Steam. Oh well.
How sad that Aaron Swartz was there for the creation of RSS and Reddit. Like spitting on his grave by removing access to data and putting up walls.
I'm following a GitHub issue asking for Linux support information. Hopefully it gets an official response, or at least some community reports as the hardware ships out.

Hi Mike, going to need to have you calculate a new slingshot trigectory to Earth after I get through your list of jokes with Wyoming.
You should read "The Roads Must Roll" short story by Robert Heinein. He takes this idea to a whole nother level.
Seems more like an article the Sun would publish 🤣
I still enjoy Yahtzee on Second Wind since the whole Escapist debacle. They seem to be trying to stoplight more indie games which I really appreciate.
If they sold it a $400 they'd be at a loss, at $300 they would crash the desktop market. People would by it for general desktop use. Similar how so many PS2 were bought just because it was the cheapest DVD player and didn't buy games.
Hell, there was a supercomputers built with PS3 clusters. Maybe that explains why the Steam Machine only has a 1Gbps nic...
Omg... a Left 16 Dead sounds amazing !
Geo-centric orbits are a bit pricer and probably need something bigger than a cubesat....
I'm most surprised that they removed SMART tooling. My primary pool is still spinning rust for the foreseeable further. And I just retired a drive based on SMART testing and TrueNAS's alerting.
