Quoting: Purple Library GuyBig deal. Those are mature apps where I don't care about the version. Not like they're using old Libreoffice or GIMP or something.

Well, for me, the Celluloid downgrade is kind of a big deal! The patch to support multiple scripts inside of folders only landed a few months ago and hasn't hit stable yet. That means mpvacious won't work on the older version of Celluloid. And I still need to do the work for the Celluloid flatpak [External Link] to make it work.

Edit: It has hit stable now: https://github.com/celluloid-player/celluloid/releases/tag/v0.27 [External Link]

Maybe I should hurry up and do the quick patches for the Celluloid Flatpak.

Create `/etc/apt/preferences.d/celluloid.pref` with this content:
 
Package: celluloid
Pin: release n=wilma
Pin-Priority: -10

Now apt prefers the upstream Ubuntu versions for this package.

Quoting: NezchanHmm.

Afterplace on Steam: CDN $16.56

Afterplace on Itch: USD $5.94

I know the exchange rate isn't great these days, but this is a little much.

Looks like you only get the Android apk on Itch for that price. It jumps up much closer to the Steam price if you want the Linux/Windows/Mac builds.

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualThe decision to fork older versions of these base desktop programs makes sense, but I don't like it. It doesn't matter much because you can still install newer versions via Flatpak.

And you can override and install the newer versions of these packages from the Ubuntu apt repositories if you really want to.

I doubt I'll bother, even if I do run file roller and gnome calculator sometimes.

This could be a lot of fun.

Quoting: Talon1024At this rate, will PC and other platforms cease to exist as gaming platforms in a few years?

How exactly do you see that happening? Nintendo hires every game developer in the whole world (as if the pool is somehow fixed and finite), and other platforms just die off because of that?

Quoting: RaulKong898Are the open source NVIDIA drivers more performant and better for gaming than the proprietary ones?

No. This article is about kernel modules, which are only a small (but fundamental) part of the driver stack.

Quoting: dpanterGamers bailing on Humble Bundle is sure to fix everything wrong here, for sure, definitely. IGN (Ziff Davis) is absolutely going to notice that sharp protest and make it right. Yes sir, 100%. If everyone drops HB then it can get killed as well.

Spoiler, click me

Is it sarcasm? It is. Which you already know but read this spoiler anyway... :cry:

Your sarcasm is noted but misplaced. You might be right that voting with our wallets doesn't go far when the corporations are big enough, but these corps sure as hell aren't entitled to our cash.

Quoting: Mountain ManI remember the cars in the demo had neat physics modeling but were way too bouncy and squirrelly, and slid across the dirt like they were on ice, making them almost impossible to control. Has that improved?

They behaved a lot like very powerful but very light open wheelers on loose dirt. Difficult to control, obviously, but not unrealistically so. This isn't an arcade off-road racer, even if it looks a bit like it should be.

Read that as Captain Contraception's Chocolate Factory and scratched my head for a bit.

But anyway, the game looks like it could be a lot of fun.

Quoting: TactikalKittySo is it safe to stay with NVidia at this point or should I still consider buying an AMD card if I upgrade from the RTX 3070?

Their GPU drivers are still proprietary if that's what you're asking. They're finally opening up their kernel modules, which is great, but I haven't seen any plans from Nvidia to open source the rest of their driver stack. But of course it's safe to stay with them if that's not a concern to you.
