I know a lot of you are going to be downloading Half-Life 2 and Counter Strike via Steam, so I figured people would want to make a backup of their cache files. Anyways, here's something I made over the past couple of days.

Enjoy. :happy:

As nice (and by nice I mean incredible!!!!11!11 ;)) as they both look in general, I just have a couple of complaints/comments:

1. Couldn't you have not used arial throughout? Doesn't do the rest of it justice to be honest.

2.The DVD spine looks amateur.

Apart from that I really love them both!! :D Amazing.

Sorry guys, a change is in order. Taylor Sherman of VALVe commented on my DVD cases and said they were good; however, it's mis-representation of their company by including their trademark/logo. So, to be fair because I like VALVEe, I'll remove all trademarks/logo's from the case/label. I'll try to work in a neat design for the missing information though!

You're kidding, right? Is he afraid you'll put him out of a job?

You're not selling it and trying to make a replica (or new design). Some people are just SILLY.

Edit- They should be more concerned with releasing the game anyways.

i wish i was contacted by a cool company for making something infringing :)

ACID: its not that they think he will put them out of a job, but that people may think the cover was made by Valve. Which is a valid concern. People trademark logos for a reason, so when other people see the logo, they know who made it.. the company gets known this way. If anyone could use their logo.. it really wouldn't represent the company anymore would it?

    • Tidal won't monetize AI slop music, company says

      By monterxz · Posted

      I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."

    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • Bypassed Windows 11 shows surprising stability on ancient, completely unsupported hardware

      By +Warwagon · Posted

      With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
    • Meta is reusing old DDR4 RAM in its servers instead of buying new hardware

      It's good for recycling of course. But commence inflation of a second hand RAM bubble and price gouging on DDR 4 inventory in 3... 2... 1...
