Quoting: starfarerHmm. Every time I read something about these kinds of games I think to myself: how does this hold up against OpenTTD? Because honestly I didn't have as much fun with any new kind of tycoon game as with OpenTTD. Can anyone chime in?
If you look into a succesor to OpenTTD you are maybe interested in VoxelTycoon. I have not bought it yet, but it's been clocly watched ;)

Steam Version is currently in Sale, 13,99 €. A No-Brainer for me under these circumstances.

Would be nice to have some indication of the genre within such lists of games, since some of them are ruled out in general in my case. It would be a quality of life addition.

Save the Bees on May 20 with the release of APICO

@WorMzy: If you are serious you could easily find a way. First of all you could get in touch with the local Beekeeeper's Association, often they have a apiary for teaching purposes. And there are many companies and associations who like to have a beehive around for the most different reasons.
I myself look after beehives who stand at a hospice. As i live in a town and couldn't manage to get a garden i have the same problem as you. But one should be sure as the initial investment could easily surpass 3k Euro with raw material prices as high as nowadays.

PS. Met is a way to process 'honey' of lesser quality (that is, honey which is to wet to be sold as honey). :wink:

@pengling: May I ask where you live? Usually, if it is too cold for flower blooming it is also too cold for (honey) bees to fly. So your sugar water would be useless, unless you put it directly into the hive.

I'm a beekeeper myself (in Germany) and interessted in ways of beekeeping / helping bees all around the globe.

CurseForge modding client comes to Linux in Alpha, only supports WoW for now

Mmmh, what is it good for?
To be honest it's the first time i stumble across this app, so my first interest is, what can it do for me?
Is there a compatibility checkup between the mod and the current game version or between different mods? Does it work with games within the steam library? What are the benefits (compared to the steam workshop)?

Classic Bethesda titles come to Steam, play them easily on Linux

I hope that this will be seen as a success and will lead to more developers to shut down their launchers. I have only recently failed to install the Origin Launcher, much to the annoyance of my daughter who wanted to play Sims 4. I can't even see a single benefit for the costumer. They are only marketing plattforms for the companies. If they would at least do it well so it would work without fiddling, like Paradox Launcher, who works otB flawless within Steam.

Here's how to get the EA App on Steam Deck with Bottles

Quoting: RossBCFound, steams compatibility with origin app stopped after proton 6.3-8
If you use 6.3-8 it works without locking up.
Thank you for the hint, will try that one. Just unsuccessfully attempted to run the origin launcher for Sims 4 for my daughter, which almost ended in a drama.

Hopeful that with Steam Deck EA / Origin will move to Linux support.

Intel announced the Core i9 12900KS as the 'world's fastest desktop processor'

Quoting: mr-victoryLet's see how much it can push the envelope for PS3 emulation, which requires a beastly processor.
I don't get the idea behind this. You are willing to get a high-end-CPU for at least x000 $ or € for the purpose of emulating a gaming device from 2006 that you can get for 90 bugs from an refurb seller? And you consider that a rational thought.
