Well I'll be damned, they actually ported it. One of the few Chromium based browsers that didn't support Linux is now available.

Letter from the owner - our stance on generative AI

Not only is your stance on AI understandable, it's phenomenal! I'm really glad to see you clarifying your position. Among everything being ruined by AI, it's good to know this site will remain great. Keep on keeping on!

Oh dear - ARC Raiders was logging your private Discord chats

So they go the lazy, greedy, and unethical path by using AI for game content, and now are logging user messages. Phenominal. I'm honestly not surprised.

Minecraft Java is switching from OpenGL to Vulkan for the Vibrant Visuals update

Depending on how much better this is going to make the game run, I wonder how much Sodium and Optifine(along with other mods like Rubidium) are going to be effected by this.

I've gone and set up a Matrix account and am ready to move there when this takes effect. With how many breaches Discord has had, I just can't trust them with info this sensitive.

UZDoom the successor to GZDoom has a first proper release out now

Quoting: JuliusDoes anyone know if the Selaco devs will switch over and where they plan to upstream their engine improvements now? I haven't followed this very closely.
A couple Selaco devs have talked about this in their Steam forums, thankfully. They currently use a very modified version of GZDoom that they maintain themselves, so they weren't really effect by this whole situation at all. Their custom engine version is completely public and open-source, but I imagine it isn't good for general use due to how Selaco-fied it is. I think they pull from GZDoom(or now UZDoom, in reality) and add to it whenever they deem it would be beneficial for whichever direction the changes go. But I don't think they'll rebase the Selaco engine to UZDoom, at least not anytime soon since by the time that they would think it's a good idea to do so, UZDoom will likely have already made a ton of changes that would break lots of stuff in Selaco. Not a dev though, so just a theory on my part.

Fallout 4 'Next Gen' update out now and Steam Deck Verified
25 Apr 2024 at 6:11 pm UTC

Sad to see there is still a lack of good HFR support. Going above 60fps just speeds up the game and installing mods for any Bethesda game on Linux is a less than ideal process that doesn't always work. Good to see it's now Deck Verified though.

I'd really like to win because I've never really played any town/city building games and this seems like a good place to start since this looks really well made with a unique design!

Valve release new stable update for Steam Deck and desktops

Quoting: DMGCan anyone explain, what is situation with steam and latest NVIDIA driver? Before I seen comments, that steam don't work with newest NVIDIA driver. Now they fixed it or have to use some workaround for that?
Steam has always worked with Nvidia. What hasn't worked though is the new big picture mode since for some reason, BP on Linux doesn't work well on Nvidia. It should've been fixed up recently though.
