I was just wondering about this last week. Very nice!!!

KDE Plasma drops LTS releases but will do extra bug fix releases, along with a new Steam-like hardware survey

I'm not using kde anylonger, but these changes all sound really good to me. I hope they do follow through with the two release cycle.

Interesting not to see fedora on there ... this is apparently what comes from protondb:

which is mostly similar, but with the notable difference of fedora?

Thank you and our wonderful community for doing everything that you do!!!! This is one of my favorite sites on the entire internet, and more and more and more I think we need places like this. I really miss the community features from the site (but totally understand why) but it doesn't diminish my interest in participating and reading everything here!

Liam, ever thought about a subscription to GOL for us readers instead of donations?

Cyber Knights: Flashpoint hits Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam with a big new update live

Trese bro's are S level devs, so please ... take your time and do whatever you think is necessary. I've had this game installed/updating for YEARS now but not playing, just waiting, and following along with updates. To say this would be one of my topmost upcoming games would be an understatement.

Proton Experimental updates to Proton 10 with fixes for Marvel Rivals, Oblivion Remastered and more for Steam Deck / Linux

very nice! Experimental is what I run all my games on, so this is a welcome upgrade :smile:

Two Point Museum gets a big free content update with a new large UI scaling setting for Steam Deck

I had save game corrupting crashes with this game on my linux desktop. Extremely frustrating because it was so much fun. But I'd be editing a space, then GONE ... the game would crash to desktop, and upon reload the entire save file would not load and said it was corrupt, so that entire museum was gone.

I think there were roundabout fixes to help the save corruption, but I saw others with the same crashing problem, so I just gave up.

Maybe this update has fixed it!?

The other biggest issue that gets the most discussion is the total and complete removal of thieves (or a settings toggle for on/off). I'm up for that. Currently they're still in the game, but the devs had massively dialed back how annoying they are. I wish they just weren't there at all. Totally kills the fun for me.

EA and Codemasters no longer making WRC (World Rally Championship) or any other rally games

Current codemasters are a pale shade of their former rockstar dev selves. It's sad to see the end of an era, but honestly, it might be time to let EA let it go.

System76 COSMIC Alpha 7 is out with new accessibility features, global shortcuts and more

Nice! Very happy about their progress! I tried out the new fedora spin they have and while it seemed nice, it definitely has that "alpha beta" level of polish and features to it. Once it fully releases out of beta in a few years time I'll definitely try it out as a daily driver.
