Happy birthday and cheers to a bright future! :)

Looks like a possible Valve Index 2 will make their VR kit go wireless

Yes Please! My bungee-system makes the cable less of a nuisance, but it still can be annoying as heck in games with a lot of movement ^^

Kalypso Media to reduce pricing on their games as a result of doing well

Quoting: barottothey can do this only because they're privately owned

the same goes for valve with their Linux-endeavours - the whole stock market system is bad for the companies in the end as long as gamblers and "investors" are that prevalent.

But kudos indeed to calypso!

Encased, a sci-fi post-apocalyptic RPG to release this 'Fall' with a Linux version

Oh, looks quite nice, went under my radar so far, thank you! ^^

And while i'm generally no big fan of "cosmetic" DLCs, in cases like this, where there isn't a huge studio or publisher involved i can kind of accept them if it's nothing game-changing but only some redundant weapons or portraits like in this case

KDE Plasma 5.22 is out now with a focus on 'stability and usability' and more Wayland

Quoting: slaapliedjeNot sure about other distros, haven't tested yet. I'm just irritated that GCS doesn't look correct in most Gnome desktops and looks fine in KDE (it's Java based, so one DE must be doing something different than the other...)

Just checked here on Manjaro - neither spectacle nor gnome-screenshot is a dependency from plasma-meta or gnome-desktop ^^

Quoting: slaapliedjeYeah, I found Spectacle. But that's a separate application (may be part of KDE, but was not installed via 'sudo apt install plasma-desktop' in pop_os). Gnome-Shell has all the screenshot shortcuts built into it by default.


Well, thats just a question of packaging - the gnome screenshot utility is a "separate" application just as spectacle is.
And if spectacle isn't included in the plasma-desktop metapackage in pop, then chances are, the gnome screenshot tool isn't included in gnome-desktop metapackage, either ;)

QuoteThe modern Plasma System Monitor replaces the old KSysguard
What are they drinking??? This is a completely backwards decision. KSysGuard is the only answer Linux has to TaskManager. Plasma System Monitor is on the same level of usefulness as gnome-system-monitor - better than nothing but insufficient for power users.

What TF are you talking about? The new System Monitor is awesome for a detailed look.
I still have KSysGuard on CTRL+ESC though because it's better for a quick look and maybe some killing ^^


BTT: YAY, looking forward to it hitting manjaro testing :D
Love KDE and Kudos to all you contributors! <3

Still waiting for prodeus to finally release the damn linux-version (what a let-down...), but this also looks like a fun retro-fps ^^

Attempt 4 - Collabora sends in futex2 patches for the Linux Kernel to help Wine / Proton

Quoting: CatKillerthere's a reason Windows has that function, after all.

if i recall correctly, it's more about better compatibility with games doing something outside the official windows-system-calls?
Besides that: what tuubi said ^^

Star Drifters talk their Linux sales for titles like Danger Scavenger, plus a key giveaway

Not really my type of game (although i like the setting), but nice to see linux worked out well for them :)
