The Atari 50 looks interesting, mainly due to the historical documentary portions of it, along with the re-imagined versions (I'm looking at you, Tank Remake). This is the first Atari compilation I'm considering picking up, as all of the other releases in the past have seemed a bit bland.
...And of course, TES Morrorwind is an all time classic, esp. when played via OpenMW.

Quoting: slaapliedjeOne of the DEs should get on the VR HUD usage soonish. With things like what the Apple thing is, and some very rough support already for SteamVR, I'm expecting we're likely 10ish years away from basically having floating displays via small glasses. Can already sort of do it with the Xreal air glasses and a Mac, the software still kind of stinks, so it's only a matter of time.As they always say - Patches / donations welcome!

I just don't get their disdain for KDE Plasma. I used to use Mint for YEARS. And was a paying client. Then they said a whole lotta "nope" for KDE. My best guess is that Clem hates KDE and left the community to support Plasma users. But when the Mint "tools" came out, Plasma was left in the dust.
In my mind Mint does not innovate much, and are a little too conservative for my tastes these days, but if they still had an officially supported Plasma edition, I would not hesitate to install it on a newbies computer (or my Grandma's).
