Conversely, if they don't put Plasma 6 into the LTS, the "desirability" of that LTS decreases significantly outside of hard production environments. Also, the older environment becomes a chain around the Kubuntu team's neck as they're still putting out fires on Plasma 5 five years after everyone has jumped onto Plasma 6 (or seven, by the end of that LTS's life).

I'm on the Kubuntu right now and if there isn't a simple way to get Plasma 6 on there, I'll be jumping distro. Again. Argh!!
Use KDE Neon then.

I don't thing these sector-based games will look good with ray tracing, unless someone will completely rework lighting in all maps (let alone tons of community map packs), but i think Quake Engine based games would benefit from ray tracing a lot.

Quoting: michaldybczakHowever, if you work with graphics, video programs, it's too big risk. I can set LO to save my documents every minute and for the most part, I will be fine, but most work situations won't be so forgiving.
Old glitchy PC AT with 80286 CPU teached me to save every 10 seconds.
