I am personally reaping the benefits of their labor. I do wonder how much business impact it has. The steam deck has sold about 1/10 of the units as the PS5. On Steam all Linux is 1.5% of users. I think the biggest business impact m

I use to colloquially call this game "slap deck" as a kid. The general approach taken was to add a ton of house rules, such that it was a large test of working memory to keep all rules in your head. We kept some simple rules to
