    Hi, I have ve-e-ery limited experience with Linux, so my question is this: does it mean that these games technically can be played on some other Linux distributives, or only on SteamOS?

    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?

    I understand your position. From other side, its not a black-and-white situation.
    On the other side of the spectrum I quite often see profiles on reddit that not a profile of a real person, but marketing profile. Profile with only available profile information about product to sell and all comments strictly advertisement.
    I think its a decision that should be made: allow such profiles to spam all related subreddits or no.
