    @emaroja They are a corporation, yes, but there are other corporations that go out of their way to NOT be evil. Hell, Google’s slogan is “Don’t be evil”.

    @roflschofel the …
    @roflschofel the way I see it, it’s a first step toward gaming on Linux. if other companies see Steam putting the effort into Linux clients, they might do the same.

  8. roflschofel Says:

    I don’t know if I …
    I don’t know if I actually want steam on linux since I don’t use it on windows either. I also have not been able to find out how a store would increase compatability. The only thing I have ”bought” through steam was Dirt2 but that was since I had a coupon for it.

    @macielightfoot …
    @macielightfoot thanks! I’ll have to go back and rewatch the episodes he’s been in, I don’t recall him talking about computers.

  10. macielightfoot Says:

    amazing video especially the last story with wil wheaton that was cool cause on the show he appears to a windows user hardcore

    @thisweekinlinux “This just in Microsoft is ev….why do you give me this crap?” Just quoting and giving me choice of words. I thought it was a great show.

    @cfm247 If it’s half as good as it looks, it will be amazing.

    @vipor29 I’m thoroughly excited. :)

    The new video editor looks really interesting.. I’m sure a lot of people have been missing a really sleek looking, easy to use, powerful video editor for Linux.. I know I have…

    yea ive heard alot about steam going to linux,i cannot wait for this

    @scouser73ubuntu …
    @scouser73ubuntu Wil has definitely grown up quite a bit, and he’s making a great niche for himself in the geek community.

  17. thisweekinlinux Says:

    @geekfreackz …
    @geekfreackz Wheaton on TBBT is one of the best things ever. It’s about on par with him joining the cast of The Guild (if you haven’t seen it, or him in it, it’s amazing!)

  18. thisweekinlinux Says:

    @FlamingLinux :)
    @FlamingLinux :) definitely not news

  19. thisweekinlinux Says:

    @librano I was extremely pleased, and I will be moreso when it actually comes to Linux. :)

  20. thisweekinlinux Says:

    @FatLingon This one …
    @FatLingon This one was possibly a little faster than my usual ones. What you don’t see is that it was actually 18 minutes recorded, because I had to do several takes per story/line to get them right, so quite a few of the sections were filmed 6 or 7 times, and the pauses are cut out to maintain a constant flow of information.
    Thanks for watching, I’m glad you enjoy my videos!

  21. scouser73ubuntu Says:

    Ha, Microsoft …
    Ha, Microsoft suppress search terms for the Chinese government so the company can work in China, and now a company they are associated with treat employees as slaves; Who’d have thought that eh.

    Good for Wil Wheaton on getting Ubuntu to sort the problem with scanning a picture, on another note; he’s really changed I’ve not seen him since Star Trek Next Gen., I’ve seen The Big Bang Theory but would never have guessed it was the same person.

    Nice TWIL jordan.

  22. thisweekinlinux Says:

    @roboticterror From …
    @roboticterror From what I’ve read, MS is “investigating” it. Just because lots of things are made in China doesn’t mean they’re made in sweatshops. The MS story had to do with the conditions the workers were made to work in.

  23. thisweekinlinux Says:

    @ThingsontheWeb …
    @ThingsontheWeb realistically, MS is no more evil today than they were yesterday.

  24. thisweekinlinux Says:

    @TheWrinkledCheese …
    @TheWrinkledCheese yeah, I wouldn’t have mentioned the MS stuff, but it seemed every Linux-related news outlet was covering it, so it was definitely newsworthy.
