From my understanding, statcounter gets this data from web analytics. Does this mean the data is more or less legit? I don't know if Steam Deck users browse internet much, though I doubt this device's market share is large enough to affect the statistics.

The action you should take depends on your goal. If you're aiming to make the best financial decision, you might calculate whether it would be more beneficial to invest $12.5k now, or to invest $350 each month instead. The latter would be possible if you decided to pay off the loan. However, if your decision is about feeling better, then paying off the loan seems to be the only option that would satisfy you. If you're from the US, having a loan might be necessary to get future loans.

The 2006 race was quite interesting: Button got his first win, Alonso retired after getting a penalty in a practice session on Friday, Kubica finished in the points in his first ever race only to be disqualified afterwards, while BMW got their first podium with Heidfeld. Then 2009 and the incident with Massa, obviously. Ocon's win in 2021 was totally unexpected, but the race was dull.

My phone usually stands on the wireless charger as it's next to my PC. I charge it before going somewhere, because the phone is 6 years old and its battery could be better.

Nonsense. Latte is coffee!

I've always wanted to make a game, but it's a huge task that requires either spending money on assets like music, models, and art, or investing time in learning how to create them myself (and then some more time to create them). I'm actually excited to see if AI could help with this, potentially making game development more accessible for solo developers.

Whether AI will be added into games doesn't really concern me. If they add AI and it makes a game worse - I can always play something else.

I'm not sure that what you're saying is correct. I don't follow anything from those two instances, yet I see their comments.

What has changed? I still use it for small things and find it quite helpful. I avoid using it for serious things though, as that'd require giving it the company's data.
