Everyone is adult until odometer on their car hits 80085 miles

Yeah I guess you're right and that depends on the child and their parents themselves.

My parents weren't limiting my time in any way and that helped me to become software engineer actually so to me it turned out to be a good thing. If I did have my screen time limited I would totally spend it on computer.games and not CS. I'm sure about it because I spent a lot of time playing too haha

Oh, sorry, that sounds totally understandable - I wish my best to both you and her!

And don't see anything wrong with that either way - was just interested how common it is

// sry for offtop but

Is everyone is fine with parental control nowadays? It was for paranoid parents only in my childhood and I didn't know anyone with parental control really.

The worst thing to me and my friends was hidden power supply cable if you did something really wrong.

Haha I'm currently writing from Xperia 1 iii and that thing sucks battery quite quickly due to it having snapdragon 888 and 4k screen

I honestly need neither of that and would be ok with 1080p screen and 865 cpu.

Everyone claps in my country on landing. Is it that uncommon?

It is going to be harder and harder in a few years. They already worsened the keyboard and made trackpoint buttons flat like dell ones so we'll all eventually switch back to trackpads or mouses I guess. Too nieche product honestly so I get it but kinda sad :(

The second problem is absence of regional prices in other markets but Steam.

They are selling games two (!!) or so times cheaper in RU region. For example, AAA game might cost 60 dollars or 6000 rub in US but it will costs 35 or 3500 rub in russian steam.

Even though I couldn't afford games in the past and pirated them - at some point I started buying stuff just because it gives much better, hustle -free experience.

This is normal. They fly using some kind of corridor if I'm correct. I took such plane from Russia to turkey 2 months ago and it's definitely not a direct flight because Russian planes are not allowed in many countries' airspace.
