As a fan of Sega’s Jet Set Radio, we got Bomb Rush Cyberfunk by an indie which is so much of a clone that it’s considered an unofficial sequel, and we all love it.

Beeper’s backend is also fully open-source, there’s nothing stopping you from hosting your own iMessage bridge and accessing it via any matrix client.

I love their approach to Hardware and Linux but have we collectively forgotten that Valve had a huge part in pushing loot boxes and underage gambling? Far from being the least evil company, but still a net win for consumers and I appreciate that they exist.

Doesn’t help that in the past month both CS2 and CS2 came out.

They’ve adopted this return policy only after being sued by the Australian ACCC.

Especially after hearing that some sticks/touchpads (I can’t remember what) don’t work immediately after booting into Steam OS with the new SSD.

No need to worry, this is just because the recovery image installs an older SteamOS version which does not support the updated firmware of the controls.

The touchscreen and especially mice and keyboards connected via USB should always work, then after a system update that gets you back to a recent SteamOS version the controls will work again as well.
