Nice to see good open source games getting some nice improvements!

Lazy Chess a new open source game that gives you the best moves

I wonder if it could help an intermediate player improve their game, just from pattern recognition of the best moves...

This time though, a bug from 2005 was solved
I wonder what Leonard Ritter thinks about it (the guy who opened this bug report)
My guess is, "About F'in time!..." (or something along that line)

What???? Have you ever played chess??? How in the world can you say it is meh? Honestly, I'd like to know, because I really can't conceive of anyone who's ever played more than a few games ever thinking that... I can think of some arguments against it (ie, too much memorization after a certain skill level), but many of them can be offset by different styles of play (i.e. online blitz)..

Odin is finally pleased so the open-world survival game Valheim releases on February 2

I assume the Death Metal doesn't play throughout the gameplay.. That would drive me a bit crazy after a while... Love the looks of the game though..

The Linux distribution I was most thankful for in 2020 - EndeavourOS

Quoting: Sojiro84Eventually I also needed a new home because of some of the stuff that happened at Manjaro.

I didn't wanted a normal distro and I liked arch so EndeavourOS it was!

I definitely needed to adjust my arch install script a lot. Manjaro come with a lot of stuff by default that I needed and liked and wasn't in the base Arch+Cinnamon package.

But, after many test runs in VirtualBox and adjusting my install script, my system is now always quickly up and running with all the packages I need, program settings are restored and the same goes for my Cinnamon settings and my system is basically almost the same as it was in Manjaro!
Ummm, you and the author (Liam) both mentioned things happening recently with Manjaro. I've been running Manjaro-KDE for several years on a couple of workstations, and I'm not aware of anything going on... What's been happening?

Atari VCS games really are just plain Linux desktop builds

Quoting: RafiLinuxThis is interesting. If I can see it in action, I may replace my HTPCs with it.
Anything in particular you'd like to see?
GamerOS (to make a Steam machine)? Kodi?

Quoting: pbI'm gaming on SteamOS 2, but eagerly waiting for SteamOS 3. :whistle:
I liked SteamOS too for the PC I have connected to the TV, but it has got no updates including security updates since summer 2019, so I gave up on it. I doubt SteamOS 3.0 will ever be releases, and if then how can we trusty Valve to not also drop support on that without any announcement?
I recommend GamerOS for this use-case. It is more stable for me than SteamOS ever was, plus it has some nifty extra features..

SteamOS-like couch gaming Linux distribution GamerOS expands with a new release

I replaced my SteamOS with GamerOS about a year and a half ago... I haven't gotten around to making use of a lot of its extra features, but its been more of a seamless experience that SteamOS ever was...
