steamcommunity.com/groups/steam... So it looks like I actually WILL have to wait for another 6 months or so. Valve apparently does not know what "reservation" means. Or they're absolutely slow as all fuck sending out these Steam Frames, I dunno.
If you have a reservation
You can now check on your expected order window by going directly to the Steam Frame product page while logged in to your Steam account. Once there, you'll see confirmation that you'll receive your order email either by December, or in 2027. Those in the 2027 camp will receive further (more detailed) information on their expected order timing by January. 
For everyone receiving a purchase email: You must complete your purchase within 72 hours or we will move to the next person in line. 
If you are on the waitlist
As we work our way through the reservation queues, we will let you know if spots open up there. Anyone interested in purchasing Steam Frame can still join the waitlist, and will be placed at the end in the order they join.
Please note that there are separate queues for each region, so there could be some regions pulling from the waitlist sooner than others. Importantly, no one on the waitlist is leapfrogging over anyone currently holding a reservation; we're only dipping into waitlists in a region when we reach the end of its reservation queue.

I am that friend. Really, what the fuck, Valve? Wasn’t the point of the reservation list that they reserve a device for you that is already in stock? #valvetime #steam #steamframe

Might get into #Warhammer Age of Sigmar so here is a first Stormcast Eternals color scheme test on a 3d printed proxy (model by Titan Forge) before I trust myself with the expensive stuff. I have two more copies of the same model ready for more tests. #minipainting
A tabletop miniature on a blue paint handle. The model is a knight in golden armor with a skirt-like blue cape around the waist and legs and holding a huge double bladed axe.

Any #minipainting enthusiasts here? I 3d printed and painted a custom non-binary-themed mini for a friend of mine. The blending could be a bit smoother but overall I‘m pretty happy. Thr model is based on Heroforge and modified in blender.
Two copies of the same tabletop miniature, one facing the camera and one facing away.

On a red and yellow feathered dinosaur sits a rider in a gray axolotl onesie and a non-binary pride flag cape. They wear glasses, a messenger bag and sneaker shoes. In their left hand is an open sketchbook and in their right a green pencil. On top of their head sits a pigeon and there is a blåhaj in front of the saddle.

I played FF8 at a time in my life that made the characters and their circumstances kinda relatable to me. I also loved the story revolving around childhood connections and weird time travel stuff. Believe me when I say that the story makes way more sense in German than in English.

Hmmm #Artemis2 has a 40 minute LOS. This is incredibly poor performance from NASA mission planning. The mission should have been planned to have a 42:50 LOS. This would give them exactly the right amount of time to listen to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon...

I'm usually not the person for street photography but I guess these turned out reasonably well. Taken two weeks ago in #Kassel, Germany #photography #streetphotography #art
Street photo taken through a low passageway that occludes roughly the top quarter of the photo. The rest shows a slightly descending pedestrian street wth some buildings visible on the left. On the street there are a couple of tables, chairs and a large black umbrella with the "fritz-kola" logo arounf which a couple of people are visible. Further back, there are some trees and even further back in the distance some mountains.Street photo looking down the sidewalk of an inner city street. Parked on the side of the street, a brown UPS truck and three bright yellow DHL trucks form a neat line.Close-up photo of the entrance to an old air raid shelter that is now used as an event location. The logo on the light gray wall identifies it as "Babylon Musikbunker". While it's already getting dark outside, the entranceway to the bunker is lit by a warm orange light.
