I guess it's too soon to suggest "Plague Inc: Evolved" then... /s

Oh, you're talking about free games? Well maybe "Plague Inc: Evolved" shouldn't be on this list.

Quoting: wvstolzingI also wonder what range the price is going to be at.

Considering System76 are basically the equivalent of Apple in the Linux world, I wouldn't hold your breath for this to be reasonably priced... It's going to be ridiculously over-priced, just like their computers.

Quoting: NanobangOf course the Steam Controller is still the best controller ever made ... :P

Nope, Sony's DUALSHOCK 4 is where it's at! ;-)

Quoting: RoosterI want to like it, but I just don't see the point of it. For gaming, I can buy a laptop without OS for similar price with dedicated GPU.

This.

Quoting: slaapliedjeI can't stand Outlook, but love Evolution.

So much wasted potential.

Evolution looks like an e-mail client from the '90s, and there is still plenty of functionality that needs to be added... I really wish they'd do more to work on it.

Mozilla's Thunderbird is nice, but it lacks certain functionality without extensions,

Quoting: GuestGNOME is awesome. Clearly the best DE.

I preferred Unity, by a big margin... Not a fan of GNOME.

Tried Cinnamon (via Linux Mint) for a while, but I found the Microsoft Windows-style UI annoying, so I'm reluctantly going back to GNOME... None of the other DEs seem all that different or tweak my interest.

Quoting: TuxeeIf you install 20.04 right now (and it already works reliably on my setup) you have most packages already at 3.36.

Nah, I'm gonna wait for the "official" release, because I'm moving three computers back to Ubuntu from Linux Mint under a "clean" install...

Quoting: Luke_NukemIf you install a 20.04 Ubuntu ISO right now, you'll have 3.35.91 or higher (beta release) with 3.36 due in the next week or so. I have 20.04 installed right now, and wow, it's a game changer.

So it looks like we might get GNOME 3.36+ in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS ("Focal Fossa")... Nice!

It's too late to put this in the upcoming Ubuntu 20.04 LTS ("Focal Fossa"), right?

Do you reckon they'll provide an update to this version of GNOME in the near future, for users of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS ("Focal Fossa")? Some of that new functionality looks mighty handy...

Nice to know... And good to see that the developers - yourself - are actively participating in the gaming community.

Thanks!

Quoting: slaapliedjeThe problem is that budget headsets (especially the crappy phone ones) give VR a terrible reputation.

I disagree - I have PlayStation VR and for a "cheap" virtual reality headset, it's pretty good (yes I have compared it to the HTC Vive Pro - I work in a family entertainment center and we use them in a commercial context).

In all honesty, the only problem with my PlayStation VR is that the resolution is "just" 1080p and unlike the Vive Pros, I find that I get motion sickness / headaches pretty easily, which by my understanding, is mostly due to the refresh rate of the headset... That's a very minor point to address in a future product.

Okay, PlayStation VR is designed to run only on Sony "PlayStation 4" products - but it's still a virtual reality headset competing for the same space, so I guess it's a step in the right direction...

I'm actually surprised no one has managed to get PlayStation VR working under Linux-based operating systems yet - aside from the fact that the "PlayStation 4" products run a FreeBSD-based operating system (which in many ways is very similar to other "'nix" based operating systems), it actually uses "standard" connections (USB and HDMI).

Interesting side note, PlayStation VR works as a giant screen - without the "virtual reality" part - under Linux-based operating systems "out-of-the-box" (like every good geek, this was the first thing I tried when I bought my PlayStation VR)!
