My retro gaming experience is going well. I bought Thief II and Thief Deadly Shadows + Deus Ex on GOG last week on sale. All of them are playable on Linux (currently I am using Wine staging 3.20)
I am still playing Thief Gold, currently on "Song of the Caverns", which is the last Thief Gold mission. I think "Return to the Cathedral" was the last ever mission I have ever played, because I remember the cutscene after that.
This is one hell of a game. Even after 20 frakking years, it's amazing, and every night is a treat. I felt something like that, when I played Alien:Isolation too.
I also started to collect some Thief related links on my blog. If you are interested:
https://parasurv.neocities.org/pages/my-thief-corner.htmlI thought about getting a new card this Christmas or for my birthday early next year. However at the moment I think like this. It's not that expensive, but it still requires some investment. It would cost me similar amount of money like my last card 4 years ago. But I also play less. It would be nice to play Alien:Isolation again (in high settings, yummy!), but it would be the only game, that I would upgrade for.
I don't know. Right now I feel content with my entertainment. Well I need a new earphone for my phone (more like music player really), because I bought a cheap one and the wires are slowly giving up. So I probably buy something more durable. I like listen to music or talks on my dumbphone (5 years old, still going strong, battery is a beast, hehe), and I use it for ASMR too. And thanks to that I can sleep very well right now.

I also thought about redesigning my blog, or just going with Hugo, but for some reason I couldn't manage to make it work. It's funny because I used Hugo before, and it was easy. I might just getting older, or stupid. Heheh
Anyway I might modify the "hack" theme for Nikola and use that. Probably create a nice "dracula" colorscheme for it.
