Hi, it's me. :) I'll be doing some minor changes whenever I find something I can help with or find an useful fix. Since late 2016, I switched entirely to Linux. I live in Poland and use Polish on everyday life, but I have my OS, applications and games in English. I also have set English locale (but Polish input method). I mostly use Steam.

A while ago, I was playing Games for Windows - LIVE games before the supposed service shutdown and posting my observations on PCGW.

Here's how I check OpenGL version under Linux until I found a better way: User:Faalagorn/OpenGL checking.
