  • My guess is this, which is way at the bottom of the support FAQ page (which can be found at the bottom of the posted FAQ section):

    “I cannot join a Steam Family”

    If you cannot join a Steam Family, it is likely for one of three reasons:

    • Your account activity does not show that you are part of the same household as the existing members.





  • Tree style tabs is cool, but sidebery is where it’s fucking at.

    Vertical tabs, groups, automatically open certain sites in specific container tabs, pin tabs to the top or unload them.

    Everything I could possibly want for tab organization, even down to a fully adjustable css file with a great UI for getting that shit pixel perfect.




  • I think you could do that with openrgb and both the visual map plugin (same link as I posted before) and hardware sync. I haven’t specifically tried it, but from what I have done, I think it’s quite doable.

    Use visual map to create individual control over numpad lights (as opposed to keeping them grouped up with the rest of the keyboard, which gives less options), and then in theory you should be able to map any temp reading to any key that you’ve separated from the group.

    There’s more than just temps as options too. Poking through, I saw stuff like power draw and clock speeds, ram usage/availability, and ethernet throughput. Could be fun to map stuff like that, though likely that would have less utility in most situations.


  • Responding to temperatures is useful but I think that might require a little more scripting.

    Hardware Sync Plugin can help with this: https://openrgb.org/plugins.html

    Adds a new tab in openrgb where you can set a hardware item, a light output and then make a color (and brightness maybe?) gradient by just inputting a few numbers and colors, and openrgb will do all the fading in between. I have my GPU temp set to my motherboard light. Compared to my rainmeter setup, it’s easier to get a general vibe at a glance and more eye catching if it gets unusually hot.


  • RGB ram and other PC internals are definitely a scam, but you can put them to use if you already have them.

    I use OpenRGB (an rgb program) to set my built in motherboard rgb light to be a color gradient based on my GPU temperature (ie: minimum temp is cyan, and fades green/yellow/red for higher temps). Not distracting cause it doesn’t ever have major temperature changes in a short time, and it’s pretty convenient as a general monitor when I’m playing games.

    Definitely not a selling point for rgb internals, but a neat usage if you already have it.

    I love rgb on my keyboard though. Color coded keys are a godsend for me to break up letters/numbers/punctuation.
