So many great and thoughtful comments here. Just a "thank you!" to all who shared their thoughts! And this in 2020... :woot:

Powerful Linux video editor Kdenlive gets a huge new release
17 Aug 2020 at 5:53 pm UTC Likes: 1

Quoting: Eike... I'm looking for the opposite though:
A simple tool, non-crashing please, for dummies.
Please don't make me googling how I can cut something at the beginning and the end.
Cutting videos short, maybe some simple blending.
Please have "output format like input format" option.
I don't know about the blending but you can cut videos with Avidemux (choose "copy" for audio and video so that the new file isn't transcoded but uses the same audio and video codecs).

Unique deck-builder 'Faeria' has a huge patch out with gamepad support
17 Feb 2020 at 11:32 pm UTC

The gamepad support was added since Faeria is still planned to get released on several consoles according to the devs - with crossplay over all different platforms.

Funny that the black screen problem was caused just by a wrong video codec. At first I feared a new bug in Unity with no solution for months to come.

I think the soundtrack of "Faster than Light" is an amazing piece of art with it's careful sound variations of simple tunes but it's maybe not for everyone.

Also: Valve should add the soundtrack feature to their mobile app to listen to them on the go without hassle.

I'm especially hyped for the next expansions after this one because they have to be Spain and Portugal (or maybe Greece, which would be exciting too because of islands, ferries, mountains?).

I want to finally drive from Gibraltar to the North Cape in one big haul - the equivalent to driving from coast to coast in American Truck Simulator some day in the future, I would say. :D

Quoting: kaimanThat trailer must be the best thing about Stadia I've seen so far.
The hair is strong in this one.

Wx3 Labs looking into Linux support for Starcom: Nexus

The game looks very appealing to me. Very interesting to read that all that was needed to consider a Linux build was a USB stick with Linux.

I often thought that the option to put Linux on a thumb drive (not only as a "live image" but as a fully functional Linux system) and give it away (to friends, not strangers because you should not use USB sticks from strangers) is underused as a way to promote Linux:

"Here is a fully working Linux system for you! Just boot from it. It will not interfere with your system. And I have put a Steam game on it for you!"

The new Steam Library Beta is officially out for you to try

Quoting: EMO GANGSTERlooks like we can no longer use Remote Play on non-steam games? it seems like I can no longer stream non-steam games it just shows the game with a grayed out install button instead streaming button is this bug?
Oh wow. This would be really sad. I often use the feature to stream non steam games to start a terminal on my desktop computer from my netbook to do all sorts of stuff on my desktop remotely. :-(

Games like this could become one of the few options for future generations to learn about, see and experience then gone coral reefs. :(
