That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.
For now it’ll also include AI-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

In Steam, add this to the launch options games where you crash in order to enable logging to a text file:
(-from: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Proton-FAQ)
Then there will be a log file of the game in your home directory, named steam-$GAMEID.log.
When you're reading that log, the error that causes the freeze should be in the end of the log somewhere.
If you just want to log the output of the Steam -d command (if you can't find a crash in the proton log, for example) you can use tee, explained here since you should not just run random terminal commands you find online without knowing what they do: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/tee-command-linux-example/
It'll write the output of steam -d to the terminal so you can read it, and also to the steam.log in your home directory.
