even just this line of code...
acc = SteamId.from_steam_id('STEAM_0:0:16889404')
gives me the following error...
XML data could not be parsed: redirection forbidden: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197994044536?xml=1 -> https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197994044536?xml=1
am I missing a gem or something?

Looks like Valve started redirecting to HTTPS (which is good). Apparently open-uri doesn’t like the redirect, though.
I’ll have a look if there’s a global option for that as a workaround. Another workaround would be monkey-patching SteamId#base_url.

It looks like this issue is solved by using RVM to install ruby 2.5 instead of ruby 2.3 from the debian repos. Maybe the base_url in the gem should be changed?
