Experience Eternia like never before with massive, highly detailed pixel-art sprites and lush environments that look exactly like the original 1980s cartoon come to life.

They've put more work into the animations & backgrounds than the original show ever did.

Quoting: Linas

Quoting: Ehvis...but what then?

Microsoft had a chance to keep the web somewhat independent by keeping the original Edge browser alive, or maybe even partnering up with Mozilla. But instead they made Edge into a reskin of Chrome, and gave Google full control of the web on a silver platter.

MS stalled the development of web standards for years, with Internet Explorer. It's a good thing that they aren't an independent meddler nowadays.

There isn't anything on the changelog about the overview screen appearing blank on a duplicated display.

It's the issue in this 'resolved' bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481222 [External Link]

Though maybe the fix isn't yet merged for this release?

UPDATE: It's fixed!

Quoting: tmtvl

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

Switching WM in Xfce is fairly easy, but it is interesting how LXQt got Wayland support before Xfce.

That's because lxqt is using labwc as its WM. So could Xfce; but apparently wlroots being written in C disqualifies it.

If this announcement contained some specifics as to what the Xfce devs find lacking in wlroots, and how they aim to remedy that, I think I would've been more enthusiastic. E.g. bare wlroots/labwc (as opposed to sway that comes with its own IPC interface) is still waiting on various wayland extensions to gain important features -- such as exposing to the user which window goes in which virtual desktop (?!).

'Wayland support' isn't a magical on/off switch. Various components of the Xfce environment already got 'wayland support' by virtue of the GTK3 port several years ago. The panel became usable on wlroots compositors as of 4.20, albeit with missing plugins -- most notably the virtual desktop pager, due to the missing extension I was talking about above.

If Xfce devs were to adopt labwc or wayfire are their WM, and then contribute to wayland protocols development to bring those WMs to feature parity with xfwm, they would've benefitted a wider array of desktop environments. Apparently that's an unreasonable ask.

I wonder if the new Microprose has any interest in publishing Civ I & II -- assuming that it's them who own the rights. All the Firaxis/2K Civs are 'in print', while the Microprose Civs (I & II) are lost altogether.

Quoting: CerberonDonate? To a store??

Putting this type of work under a dedicated 'game preservation foundation' would've at least looked better, I guess.

Quoting: Mountain ManThe only one that caught my eye was the new Star Wars RPG. I just hope they don't screw it up.

The name 'Casey Hudson' doesn't exactly inspire confidence for old time Mass Effect fans ... assuming that this 'FotOR' won't get buried in development hell in the first place.

Quoting: PyrateStatements like these are one of the reasons why we'll never get game as good as Deus Ex again.

Ehh... come on now; you know that's a wild exaggeration. Big studios shy away from im-sims because they've never been profitable enough for them. Deus Ex itself could come out only at the absolute tail end of the crazy experimental phase of 90s gaming, under John Romero himself as publisher.
