Steams desktop shortcuts do not link to the game's executable. They link directly to steam, which in turn will launch the game. For example, Team Fortress 2's shortcut would link to the following: steam://rungameid/440 https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_browser_protocol

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1687360327237640192

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
