Docker is back up.



Most people have never played a MOBA.


We’re going in circles here.. where did I say most people have played MOBA?


Well you said "most people" without clarifying whether you meant that generally (the way the other commenter assumed and so replied) or whether you meant "of people who know it, most of them..."

In internet comments, if you're not really specific with your words it's likely at least somebody will misunderstand your intent, partly because they can't read your mind and partly because with so many potential readers the odds of misunderstandings goes up.


In internet comments, if you can’t follow the context of the thread discussion, don’t reply.


Your comment was not clear even with context. I read it the same way as the person who replied to it.


Drag a file to the terminal.


I don't believe that they'll even focus on users installing the OS, just like 99% of Windows users don't install their own OS. Valve will provide the reference SteamBox and encourage other manufacturers to release their own SteamOS-preinstalled boxes, giving users hardware options.


This is the end goal - but for the time being, it does seem aimed at tinkerers - the kind of people who already have a PC hooked up as an HTPC...


Keep in mind that this is the first of three announcements that they've, err, announced: http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/

The second is in 48hrs, and almost definitely something related to the SteamBox. So it's too soon to speak of their intentions "for the time being".
