Quoting: JuliusHave been playing this with WINE (platinum support) quite a bit...
As far as I know, it will be a Wine "port", so nothing will really change here.

7 years is a long period. I have only known about GOL for around 2-3 years, and that already feels like forever. During this period I witnessed it shape from a hobbyist website into an essential part of my daily life. Probably a bigger part than I care to admit in public. :)

Quoting: tuubiI'd rather sit inside playing games when it's not sunny and warm outside.
Not really a problem here in Denmark.

Congrats Frank. This is a lovely wallpaper. Would be even cooler to have a transparent version that you could overlay over a desired color background. Anyone with strong enough gimp-foo to do it? :)

When should i386 support for Ubuntu end? Help Canonical decide

Quoting: leillo1975I think that Ubuntu 32bits has no sense. Other thing is the light flavours of Ubuntu like Lubuntu and Xubuntu. I manage a lot of old machines (Pentium 4 with 1GB RAM) that with xUbuntu 32bits can do something useful in my job.
That is not how it works. All these Ubuntu flavors are not independent distributions. They are based on the Ubuntu. So if it drops 32 bit support, so do they.

In my humble opinion, Ubuntu on the server is called Debian. But then I may be a bit biased. :)

32 bit is mostly useful for reviving old hardware, but again, Ubuntu is not particularly optimized to be run on legacy hardware, so you are probably better off with a more lightweight distribution anyway.

So in the end, it is not something I am going to lose sleep over.

Humble PC & Android Bundle 14 is live!

Quoting: ElectricPrismHB feels like they've run out of great content versus how many times they do a bundle each year.
They are probably trying to keep the best stuff for their blind monthly bundles. And even those are kind of meh, especially for Linux users.

I know that if I get this, I will just end up with more games I will never play. And I don't game on my phone. So yeah, maybe. :)
