This weekend I have given myself the goal of 100%-ing Ass Creed IV. I am fairly far along.

Got all the stupid uncharted island shit.

If I never post again after this week you know what probably happened.

Played a lot of Arkham City. Indoor levels are bigger than in Asylum but they don't feel as well designed. Riddler Trpohies are not much fun to collect as well. On gameplay mechanics it trumps Asylum in every way. More options to play the game. Enjoying the combat a lot more. There are some moves which are not comfortable to pull off due to amount of buttons but hey, not worth playing with kb/m. Controller feels better for this.
Thoroughly dislike that HUD doesn't fully disappear. Found a tweak in INI file to manually toggle it. Not ideal. CG cutscenes are of significantly higher quality but still not as it should have. Them being 16:9 I understand. Not so much why devs put in dynamic black borders on the sides for ingame cutscenes. Even less when some don't have them at all. Just never put in borders devs, no one cares about your cinematical view. Gimme my fullscreen.

Great texture work, just like in Asylum

Is there a way of dismissing Steam "Toast" popup notifications?

There are several applications I've been using lately where I need the corners of the screen and the damn pop ups are coming at all the wrong times. It's annoying to have to click the notification, then close whatever has been opened. I want to be online and want notifications but easily dismissing them when I want to would be beneficial.



Also - Happy birthday Hektor, Erekiddo, and Grief.exe!

Grief.exe as well? Happy birthday~!



Anyway, I've just realized that Planet Coaster is finally out of early access. I'd say that I'm quite pumped for the game.

It's been a long while since I played Rollercoaster Tycoon 3.

Happy birthday to you!

As you all know, I have more than 10k games marked as "Not Interested" on Steam. I want to remove from that list games that I end up owning (bundles happen, I am sure you understand). It turns out it should be quite easy: there is a webpage with appIDs of:
  • rgOwnedApps
  • rgIgnoredApps
I have just to take the intersection of these lists. People have made a Chrome javascript to try to reset the "Not Interested" list. I won't directly use this of course. I will apply it to the intersection.

For info, it is as simple as the following.

With Python:

Code: 
rgOwnedApps = [blabla]
rgIgnoredApps = [blabla]

IGNORED = set(rgIgnoredApps).intersection(rgOwnedApps)
print(IGNORED)

With Python3, you can optionally check the names of the apps:

Code: 
import requests
import bs4

for id in sorted(IGNORED):
    print (bs4.BeautifulSoup(
        requests.get('https://steamdb.info/app/%d/' % id).content)
.find('title').text)

With Firefox, install the Firebug addon and open the console:

Code: 
var IGNORED = [blabla];

var COUNT=IGNORED.length;
var INDEX=0;
var REMOVE=function(){
if (INDEX == COUNT) { return; } var i=IGNORED[INDEX]; INDEX++;
$J.post('http://store.steampowered.com/recommended/ignorerecommendation/',{sessionid: g_sessionID, appid: i, remove: 1}).done(function(){ REMOVE(); })}; REMOVE();
