Most astonishing for me, that it’s still called Master bedroom and bathroom, which has that direct origin.
The word master does not originate from slavery. If you study the etymology, you’ll also find that it significantly predates slave, and has more than a few meanings that are not even remotely related to slavery.
I have no objective evidence, but I would find it easy to believe.
I’m more curious about how the hours spent watching movies and TV shows combined compare to the hours spent on video games, and how the two are changing over time in various countries.
Interesting.
Do note, though, that I said entertainment time, not entertainment industry revenue.
On KDE Plasma, I would stick with Kate and hide/disable some the fancier interface features. It might seem like overkill, but since it’s built from common components that other KDE apps use anyway, the effective resource consumption will probably be light. And Kate is quick.
On a Gtk desktop, you might try Mousepad. This is what I used before moving away from Xfce.
Only? That makes it seem as though gaming were a negligible fraction of the world’s entertainment time. It wouldn’t surprise me if it surpassed movies before long, if it hasn’t already.
I think I see your point though: RAM prices affect even more people than that.
Remember how graphics card prices tripled several years ago, and never came back to sane prices?
Sigh.

Thrower is a viable build in this game, and there is a source of rats in Act 2. :)
The best time to quit Google was 10 years ago. The second best time is now.
“Calls to scrap” the disclosures make it sound like a societal movement, when in fact it’s just two people with obvious bias: Tim Sweeney and some guy who promotes Tim Sweeney’s products on youtube.
I don’t give a flying frog what they think. When I allow someone to sell me something, I like to know what’s in it.
I might not agree with what ICE is doing but I also don’t agree with every corporation in the world having to morally police all of their customers for fear of being pilloried by cancel culturists.
I don’t think ICE behavior is remotely equivalent to celebrities who annoy people into trying to organize a boycott. To compare them like this suggests to me that the person doing so is either willfully complicit, or unfathomably out of touch. I hope you’ll give your position some more thought.

PCIe N cards normally work fine in PCIe N-1 slots, so long as there isn’t some other problem (like insufficient power). If they didn’t, there would be many fewer GPU upgrades in the world. :)
I think you’ve done well in choosing to replace Nvidia with AMD, since this will lead to a smoother experience (or at least more options) if you ever decide to escape Windows.
Maybe 32-bit builds of steamcmd will still be available for 32-bit systems? If I had one, I would look in to that.
You have misunderstood the person you replied to.
PC gamers (sample size: at least 1) say they struggle to think of anything valuable that Tim Sweeney has ever said.
When you get to the point where accurate fractional amounts matter, or if you start processing very large numbers, consider using an arbitrary precision arithmetic library instead of the simple CPU operations that C exposes.
Just in case you aren’t aware, int division throws away remainders. (And float/double tends to accumulate small inaccuracies.) You’ll want to keep that in mind if using this code for budgeting or any other money calculations.
Congratulations on writing a working program!
