I saw this stupid issue before with Steam.  This is extremely frustrating and I can’t believe I have to work around it. They don’t even offer a manual patch package I can download and try.

I did a lightning talk at the Mozilla Summit about my pet infrastructure project, Mozilla Pulse. I’ll be talking about it in more depth in a future blog post.
