I think you misunderstood what’s happening here. The steam client was historically 32 bit but now will only be 64bit.

Everything 32 bit runs on 64 bit systems, but 64 bit apps won’t work on 32 bit systems.

Windows started supporting 64 bit in 2001, and really any modern game is probably 64 bit already since 32 bit applications can’t address more than 4gb of RAM (not that anyone can afford more than that right now)

To me I’m shocked anyone at all is on a 32 bit os, phones don’t even really have 32 bit anymore and in the world of personal computers it would be more work to find 32 bit hardware than 64 bit hardware.

Most likely that 0.1% will just have to wipe their computers and install 64 bit windows which their hardware probably supports already and they somehow accidentally installed the 32 bit option.


By this logic since you disapprove of the actions of Valve then you should not use it if were an existing user and not start if you’re not.


The psvr2 has native support on windows (and maybe Linux). You can just get the adapter and download Sony’s official tool from the steam store.

When WMR ended I got a cheap used psvr2 and the adapter and use it to play any vr game on my PC (no PlayStation so I can’t play PlayStation vr games though).


I played it a bit on my steam deck , worked great.


You could also buy it direct from their website which gave you a DRM free copy on humble bundle.

There will also be a Steam Deck 2: Episode 1 and Steam Deck 2: Episode 2


At least we did get another half life game (Alyx), I greatly enjoyed the first 4 core games (1, 2, ep1, ep2) and felt that Alyx fit nicely into the bunch though it was interesting that they ended it in such a way that it opens up more options for any future games.

As an aside while I know the market is definitely smaller for VR releases, if the next half life was a VR release again I would love that, i found the experience for Alyx to be stellar


This is where I’m at. I played remake on my steam deck and I won’t buy a console to play it our any other exclusives.

I really appreciated that they started releasing games on PC too but waiting a couple years is annoying. I greatly enjoyed zero dawn, and am finally enjoying forbidden west but having to wait years was annoying (not enough to get a ps5 though, and if they choose to never release it on PC I would just never play it ever).

Right now I’m also waiting for Ragnarok since God of war was great. But again I’m not buying a ps5 so I’ll be waiting until it comes to PC if it does at all.


I played the whole game on Steam deck which was a pretty solid time


Maybe it will be here soon, horizon forbidden west will be out quite soon on PC (mar 21)


This made me realize that I have a search bar on my home screen that I literally never use and I do use a third party launcher that it could be turned off. Very funny indeed


I do this now for services in using, overall pretty straightforward once you have a basic understanding of doing one they are all pretty easy.


I think that there is a misunderstanding about the purpose Beeper is trying to solve. It’s about consolidating all your chat services together into one place. Google messages is SMS/MMS/RCS. Beeper or by extension the whole matrix platform with bridges can roll almost all your services together, gchat, sms, mms, RCS, Facebook, iMessage, discord, WhatsApp, signal, telegram, slack, instagram, etc.


Vianet - a provider out of Sudbury

Lakeland networks - a provider out of Bracebridge.

Ontario has a pretty aggressive fiber/broadband roll out right now. https://www.ontario.ca/page/ontario-connects-making-high-speed-internet-accessible-in-every-community

My family cottage is getting Bell fiber this summer too.


Ontario, Canada $82 after taxes for 400/200 A second fiber provider is coming to my street (doing locates now) and they are $82 after tax for 1000/1000.

Edit: 82 cad is 62 usd
