You can't over-charge a battery by keeping it at 100% but you will up the charge cycles and age the battery prematurely.
By limiting battery charge/discharge you will charge more often but have a longer life span for the battery:

Hmmm... Neon Prime... Prme... Valve are obviously obsessed with the 2007 cult classic fps Alpha Prime by Black Element Software/Bohemia Interactive and are working on a Half-Life/Alpha-Prime crossover!

Unity is not a system library though.

Quoting: elmapulwe dont need the runtime to be opensource to make an code opensource, if we follow that logic, then we cant licence anything under GPL for windows.No, this is covered by the system library exception:
maybe there are some incompatibilities that im not aware of, but i dont think so, if gpl contamined the runtime then an single program for windows being GPL (even if not written by microsoft) would mean the entire source of windows would need to be opensource.

I'm on a spending hiatus at the moment, but TWD have been on my wishlist for a long time. For one euro I will certainly make an exception!

These ones tickled my interest:
A Castle Full of Cats [External Link] (Native)
Cute hidden object game. Might be a little on the simplistic side for my taste, even for a game in this genre.
Rosewater [External Link]
From the developers of Lamplight City. It's an (alt) wild western adventure game. Have there been any of those before?
Big thumbs down for not having any aspect ratio correction.
Foolish Mortals [External Link] (Proton)
Classic adventure game. Art and style I very much associate with Broken Sword, the Voodoo story-line with Gabriel Knight 1 so it ticks all the boxes!
RXC - Rally Cross Challenge [External Link] (Proton)
Top down rally cross, simucade. Might be interesting to anyone who thought art of rally was lacking in the wheel-to-wheel department.
The driving AI needs more work to be challenging for single player. Quite often all opponents makes the same mistake and get stuck in the same corner leading to a Three Stooges kind of gridlock.
Rush Rally 3 [External Link] (Proton)
Pretty cool to find a indie dev (and single developer) driving sim. Reminds me a bit of the early Colin McRae titles.
Claims to be "simulation-style" but even on extreme difficulty it's much too forgiving. Still quite fun.

DOSBox Staging 0.79.0 is out now

(Yes, it's a confusing name considering the Wine and Wine-staging relationship which is quite different.)
Both projects might reach 1.0 at some point, but they have different developers and different goals.

Quoting: Craggles086So the official DOSBox is version 0.74-3, and this Staging is version 0.79.Just to be clear, despite the name, this is a separate fork and project from the original DosBox:
No one thinks we might be ready for a version 1 yet, after how many years of DOSBox?
