yeah I thought the same, but I think they mean aesthetically inspired.

Yeah, but DX 1's (which is what's meant here) aesthetics aren't terribly distinctive; when someone shows a screen that looks cyberpunky with the blurb 'inspired by DX', one immediately thinks of 'emergent' gameplay, alternate pathways, etc.

No! This has to be the Reapers' Indoctrination Fund!!!

Is that . . . a fountain pen nib?

I mean, he says something along the lines of "our numbers will blot out the sky" at one point -- so maybe he was talking about ink blots after all.

One thing that causes a slight eyebrow raise is the Python 3.12 default. I wonder if that's a little bit early; as 3rd party python packages haven't all caught up yet (I think PySide6 *just* released 6.6 which is compatible with py3.12).

Not too big a deal, of course; but Fedora can always introduce major releases of packages inbetween os releaes through the updates repo, which is enabled by default.

Nice, and Xfce will probably have support even sooner.

By the way -- I haven't looked yet, but if you want good entertainment, be sure to check out the phoronix forums w/ respect to this bit of news, if/when it shows up there. The wayland quarrels over there tend to be hilarious.

I mean, optimism is good, of course, but do you think you can survive till 2953? That's the date they're giving, so...

Oh wow, I see that the thumbnail image was directed by Quentin Tarantino.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyWow, that is . . . amazingly old fashioned. Like the monsters are still images and everything.

Yeah for a moment it felt like I was looking at an Amiga magazine.

Have you checked out that Eye of the Beholder 1&2 got an AGA upgrade? I have tested the C128 port too, freaking awesome! I need to actually sit down and play that (two monitors and all!)

Yeah (from what I've been seeing on youtube) the C64/128 port is absolutely incredible.
