Let's hope the new maintainer will finally do what we're all waiting for and rename it to Mubuntu.

Huh? What did I miss?

TL;DR they promoted and supported an unapologetic white supremacist... when they were called out on it they said they use a "big tent" and don't pick sides.

Hmm, I fail to see what you're seeing...
Except the sprites and the backgrounds not fitting too well together, I find the backgrounds I saw fine.

Greenland falls to the zombie hordes overnight! There is no virus, no cure, only the relentless march of the undead. Can they consume the world?

Not if they're starting from freakin' Greenland they can't.

Ubuntu Mate, "Wimpress Mate" to be precise, has been my favourite take on this DE.
True labour of love, the only distro that has tempted me to switch away from Mint.
This man is not a simple "maintainer" and cannot be replaced at least not easily.

I hope that s&box and games built on that engine will work well under Steam Linux Runtime or Proton, but you never know... s&box itself currently has a Gold rating on [ProtonDB](https://www.protondb.com/app/590830), so that gives me hope.

There was a drama that Framework supported non-koscher projects so now everyone should hate on Framework ;)

ad rem - great move. KDE is getting better and better despite GNOME being the default on majority of distros. What makes me laugh is that Fedora recently promoted KDE variant to the main page and put lovely: "The next generation personal desktop" monicker below it 🥰

> X/Twitter in a rather blunt post telling people to just go for the sequel.

Yeah… the other day I found out about the sequel and after quick searched turned out to be epic-only… yeah but no… epic can go ef itself

Quoting: Ehvis

Quoting: whizse

Quoting: pbThe artwork looks suspiciously sloppy, especially the backgrounds...

From the Kickstarter page "Everything is hand made, with no AI used in any part of the process".

I don't know what is worse, if that turns out to be a lie or the truth. ;p

Having something hand made doesn't automatically make it good of course. But yeah, the scenes look boring and inconsistent.

Maybe that's why it's called Less Miserables but in a bad way.

Just Valve being Valve, winning by default and contributing to the gaming community in the process.

They may be scaling the stream, but the UI is still tiny at 125% in Gnome. Oh, well, one step at a time.

I am glad to see KDE getting more love. Seemed like gnome was getting all the attention and frankly KDE is just better and brings more to the table for the user as well as being much more user focused.

That said. Fuck Framework and their “big tent”. You don’t get to play middle of the road both sides anymore, that ship has sailed…. right into an iceberg.

Quoting: TcheyI'm stuck on my 2015 idea, having a hard time to see anything else.

... But all my already little support for the company is gone now.

Gentle reminder that the original company that made those decisions (uber entertainment inc./star theory games) hasn't been involved with planetary annihilation since 2018 and ended its existence in 2020 after its contract to develop kerbal 2 was cancelled.

Quoting: Eocene84Considering we're starting to have a big problem with the measles making a come back where I live because of idiot anti-vaxxers refusing to vaccinate their children because they believe the socialists (aka Democrats) will brain wash them.

No joke, I've talked to someone who believes this, and they are very much not alone in that and similar beliefs. We're screwed.

Oh mi god, now it's finally clear! I've been vaccinated as a kid and now I'm vehemently anti-fascist! Those pesky lefties vac-washed my brain!

Quoting: PyreticWhy are they using a custom script? Does Steam not provide separate options for Linux x86 and Linux ARM?

Not currently, as Steam does not officially support Arm on Linux.

As much as I loved the new Hoshimachi Suisei collaboration, I genuinely cannot FATHOM how people are still regularly doing anything having to do with Epic Games. Be it using their Unreal Engine, Their Epic Games Store

Spoiler, click me

And getting flashbanged because they decided it was a good idea to give every store page it's own background color

, Fortnite or whatever else they're doing at the moment that doesn't consist of ruining rocket league

The only issue I had with bottles is that it kept FAILING to import the media foundation etc etc support.

For some damn weird ass reason it would often not be able to play Video or Audio sometimes and then I load the same setup on Lutris and BOOM it works. It was just infuriating issue.

Switched to bottles a few days ago and it not only works better for my already installed games it's also way easier to set up. Lutris forces you to configure each game from scratch while bottles gives you one prefix aka bottle in which you can run things however you want. It's really hard to put it all into one short comment but if you're a long time lutris user like me then bottles will likely fix all your grievances.

There is also an appimage repo on github in case you don't want to use flatpak. https://github.com/ivan-hc/Bottles-appimage

Seems it has been quite unpopular, even the news post on Steam seems to have zero thumbs up:

I couldn't imagine that to be true, so I went to the page and gave it a thumbs up - and the counter stayed at zero. It's either a bug, then, in the counter, or they've disabled likes for this post for some odd reason!

I don't know why people are doubtful about the "it's not AI" claim.

"Fortnite isn't making as much money as before" seems far more likely - I would even have expected them to use "the layoffs are DEFINITELY AI-RELATED" to hide that.

Quoting: sarmadGnome 50 has a serious regression in graphics performance, so stay away from Ubuntu 26.04 until it's fixed.

https://www.phoronix.com/review/nvidia-595-kde-gnome

I think KDE has reached a state where you can fall back to it as the most reliable option. Especially since on wayland everything has its own implementation of everything so it's more likely to run into differences and issues depending on the desktop. I moved from a window manager to KDE while playing Death Stranding 2 and I think it actually improved performance, maybe because it seems that Plasma has a proper support for exclusive fullscreen mode unlike the WM I used, although I could be wrong and it's some random coincidence, but I still kept using plasma for now as it also fixed some other random issues I've had recently
