    What is good about the service that is in any way similar to Linux, is my question. The two seem explicitly opposed in my eyes besides that Steam is using and therefore contributing to some Linux related projects.

    It seems akin to supporting Microsoft for their implementation of WSL. MS also makes good some good products. They also have contributed. They are still anti-thetical to what I thought most Linux users want out of a company. Steam still seems anti-thetical to what I thought most Linux users wanted out of software.

    Yeah this is my main point, I feel the same way when people are trying to run other proprietary software. I understand just being very particular about workflow, big part of the reason I use any given Linux distro, but moving to Linux to then go through the hoops of running MS Office, which even in the best case scenario will be another app that is not easy to update, has always seemed silly to me.






  • It varies a whoooole lot depending on preparation and beans but I’ve certainly had somehow sorta salty tasting coffee. One bagel place I used to go to every morning had especially bad, salty tasting coffee from the bitterness. I was tired one morning and accidentally used salt instead of sugar, forgot I had added anything except creamer, and didn’t think about how salty the coffee was until 3/4 of the way through it because of the aftertaste.

    Usually pour over is far less bitter, the French press coffee I make isn’t salty at all but is bitter, moka pot coffee I make is neither bitter nor salty.

    Coffee usually has no sodium in it so it isn’t literally salty, probably just the bitterness, or it’s just from the water source.
