An alternate timeline

Can’t even get HL3 on an alternate timeline.

We might be living in the timeline that gets HL3. A recent leak from a VA’s resume suggests that it might be in development.

Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.

Rumor has it that HL3 or some other single player HL game is currently in the works!

Can we return to Aero? Is that too much to ask?

I’ve been long enough on this place that I know you can get similar effects on Linux

(not mine, found on image search)

first screenshot doesn’t look like aero at all tbh. second one more so. this is the most accurate port I know of tho https://gitgud.io/wackyideas/aerothemeplasma

This is the kind of thing I had in mind!

Aero is more than just the blur effect, modern OS’s still have that in spades.

i want to install plasma just for this now

It’s pretty easy! This is my desktop right now. I do like it a liiitle less gaudy and my mac use at work means that I prefer my window controls on the left instead of the right.

Second picture theme is called: Clearglass. Icon: Glass icons by Palko drawing.

…For anyone interested

Skip aero. Let’s go back to compiz fusion and deskcubes.

New KDE brought the cube back!

I’m rocking a desktop octagon with two monitors with all the fancy window animations on and still using less ram that windows on idle lol.

Have a look at Wayfire. It’s a Wayland compositor that implements a lot of the compiz effects/plugins. I recently found that but haven’t tried it myself as I don’t really care about wobbly windows and cubes as much as I did 15+ years ago when I first tried compiz as a teenager :D

Fucking Steam always getting shittier with each update! Why can’t they be better like Microsoft’s XBox Store or DRM free like Epic Games?!

Comment from the alternate timeline

Crazy how Microsoft sold of their XBox brand to Sega, conserding that this single handetly made Sega the biggest video gaming company world wide!

Oh fuck. We need themes on steam client

You can. They are called skins though.

Apparently official skin support no longer exists but Millennium for Steam looks like an unofficial tool that can be used for skins.

Yeah, I used to mess about with it but it became too much because Steam updates so damn much.

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
