The problem with Tim is that he doesn’t realize that Valve is only doing this because their customers asked them to. Doing what your customers want you to do is how you build a successful business consumers love so you don’t have to lay off 1000 people. It’s not political, dweeb
There is a real economic cost to Valve’s foray into forced political disclosures. Besides taking 30%, they’re also taking a potentially even larger fraction of developers’ revenue and livelihood by undermining their business with these AI hate campaigns.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Steam requires disclosure of generative AI for player-consumed content via its standard Content Survey (alongside ratings), shown on store pages for transparency, not as political statements. Steam's base 30% revenue share matches major console platforms.

Fuck off.
Warhound, the brain child of Ben Lamm and Palmer Luckey, emerges from stealth to genetically engineer dogs for military and law enforcement.

This is the most obnoxious display advertising in the history of ever. I understand more than anybody that Twitch needs to make money, but holy fuck, you guys need to learn when to tell Amazon no. Absolute shit show.

They really swap the prime on Twitch home page badge to promote Luna? Homeboy, nobody is going to use Luna. Please stop.
There's a game called Sektori that has pascifism mode from Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2 back in the XBL arcade days. What a fuckin find, man.
The amount of fighting on Reddit about the Steam Machine is so funny to me. People really out here mad that some people are excited for the device even with the outrageous price. Why do people care how others spend their money?
