    I'm not a Sonic fan, but I just love Jim Carrey as a Robotnik. Hope he will return.

    Unfortunately I did not played BG1/2 or PoE. I watched my friends playing BGs and played Planescape: Torment (predecessor of PoE I presume) dozens years ago. I really curious about PoE and have plans to play it, but... time is limited, so that's it for now.

    Thanks for sharing, quite interesting and consice article. It kind of confirms my feeling that list of desired traits/properties on dating sites doesn’t intersects with who we choose as partner.

    Uf... I have feeling that I read exactly the same article in the last two years like dozens of time.

    Founder of AI startup: "AI finally can replace developer. Just use the latest model. It finally good.".

    And for me personally AI constantly fail to do the half of the simple tasks. Sometime it works, most of the time I need to verify/fix every point of task. Personally for me it would be simpler and maybe quicker just to do a task manually.

    Uf... Maybe I'm using it wrong, but what bothers me is that: why every AI startup is trying to sell AI product instead of just doing development themselves using their own AI product?

    Upd: to explain a bit, Im not developing some new small app using AI, I'm trying to make AI help me with development/fixes of quite large existing codebase.

    I`m a bit too late to comment, but for me what irks me is that wireless mouse/keyboard need separate receiver. And each company has unique receiver, and sometime different model of mouse/keyboard even from the same company require unique receivers which keeps USB ports occupied everytime.

    Apart from that I did not feel/did not find any difference between wireless/wired.
    Yes, if you have a lot of electronics or wires hanging out from you pc/laptop wireless connection can hiccup sometime, but quite often its easy to resolve.

    I will be honest, as a person that works with legacy systems that exists and still in development phase for the 20+, 15+ years I kinda don't understand what's wrong with using debugger.

    Logging, debugging, printing to console, mind debugging, reading code is just a tools, and sometime they helpful, sometime not? In some situation debugging doesn't make sense, in some - have perfect sense. Like debugging doesn't make sense if you already have general understanding why and what happens at this point in a code. But if code is complex, unfamiliar, and there a lot variables that comes from different point in code that defines behaviour, and from outside it's not clear what exactly happens here - debug will definitely help to see a execution flow. Upd: also debugging doesn't make sense in multithreading envs of course.

    Not much news. Still playing Trackmania, (as mentioned in prev comments I strictly play alone and never in competition). Slo-o-owly getting better, got Silver medals on the most of ToD (Track of the Day) tracks, and now I'm trying to get PB (personal best, better time) on each ToD track starting from 2020 again. Still love it! Finally, tech clicked for me, but still struggling with ice surface.

    Apart from it started playing Fields of Mistria (another game inspired by Stardew Valley) and I super love it! Devs removed or replaced most of the points of struggle that I had while playing Stardew Valley (even issues that I not consciously aware about) and made really cozy and comfort game.
    I tried to play Stardew Valley like 3 or 5 times, and I'm just unable to go further 3rd year - too many tasks, too many planning, and hard to play in short sessions. Fields of Mistria is different I definitely can recommend it as alternative. There a lot of good familiar points to SV, but also a lot of differences that makes game interesting.

    Apart from it have plans to continue to play Claire Obscura: E33, and Stellar Blade NG+ (finished main game and started new to get all quests and outfits). But unfortunately I do not have enough free space on the drive for these games and erm "policies" do not allow to install apps on external drive. So, these games have to wait a bit.

    As far as I understand this article can be shrinked to one sentence:

    In the US, the 16e’s savings vs. the 17 are about 25%. In Brazil, considering retail prices, that gap can exceed 50% — precisely 52.4% when comparing BRL 3,299 (16e low) to BRL 6,929 (17 low).

    Thats all, I suppose?
