Don't worry I'm sure if the drain gets clogged that handy HVAC vent on the floor will take care of the problem!

Leela: Look, I know there are no car-chases, but this is important. One of these two men will become President of the World.

Fry: What do we care? We live in the United States.

Leela: The United States is part of the world.

Fry: Wow, I have been gone a long time.

It's not him having money, it's him spending on one of the most destructive vehicles (environment-wise) as you can buy. Multiple times. I do like that he has kept Valve private, and that he seems to understand what we gamers actually value. But that doesn't make him a good person or Valve a good company.

Nothing, I guess.

Toooooo bad he also owns multiple yachts and people just kinda give him a pass for it.

That's fine and perfectly valid, Tim Sweeney is a dick, I just get perturbed if people call a fairly innocuous piece of software malware. Like if nothing else at least the devs are making a chunk of cash for these freebie giveaways. I even saw something the other day where a dev said they saw Steam sales double because of a free giveaway on Epic.

Only if they're hiding coffee from her.

For real! I know this is a bit of a meme but it really isn't far off. The show definitely had its problems with representation (like not letting avery brooks sport his signature bald w/ a goatee until season 3 because they were worried that a bald, black lead would be "too intimidating" or whatever) but it also had PLENTY of stuff that "shouldn't" have been on network TV in 1993. Also lets not forget the episode where Jadzia got to meet all the past Dax symbionts and Quark got stuck with an old lady inhabiting his body for half an episode or so.

And then there's... whatever this was.

malware? bro you can redeem the games on their website and use an alternate launcher to install them.

Steam gets around this problem by doing the decompressing on the fly as you download. Go check out your CPU usage next time you install a game.

Edit: I think this is also why it defaults to not downloading while you game. Steam doesn't want you to have a bad experience from the decompression.
