Ubuntu: California Edition when? 😁

Steam Deck OLED gets a price increase across Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan

I heard that inflation hit Japan quite hard so I'm not really surprised 🤔

Another game (sorta) saved from big bad companies by its developers. What a great time we live in currently, in terms of games 🥰

So far the only good thing in Epic is that they got regional pricing right for me (or at least in Poland).

I still don't trust that clown Sweeney.

I'm still worried about the price. Even the most pessimistic scenario of $1,000 is becoming less and less realistic option.

GOG now using AI generated images on their store
28 Jan 2026 at 8:33 pm UTC Likes: 2

To be honest, I wouldn't notice. I am not really into searching every single image on the internet if it's AI generated or not (unless it's obvious).

As for the art: at this point with complaints about AI slop everywhere, I care less and less about that. Stress and anger does no good to me.

It's not cool that they use it in that way, sure, it's hard to agree that it's a good thing, but I'm not going to either condemn or praise them for that anymore.

Xfce is getting a brand-new Wayland compositor called xfwl4

People crying about developing Wayland compositor/vision of XFCE dropping X11 entirely/using Rust by developer (choose your fighter) in 3... 2... 1... 😄

Okay, now for real: that's a great change. Finally XFCE will start to catch up.

GOG job listing for a Senior Software Engineer notes "Linux is the next major frontier"

If they are really taking into consideration Linux, at least one engineer with knowledge about Wine/Proton would also be necessary. Or they should consider closer cooperation with other known Wine engineers (for example GloriousEggroll or folks from The Dawn Winery, those who do custom Proton builds for gachas like Genshin).

Not all games work well and some still have some Linux specific bugs (for example Robin Hood: Legend of Sherwood with a laggy cursor - recent Wine builds fixed it only partially).

Someone's trying to save on an actual technical support, huh? 😂

I wonder what's the progress on private servers.
