Also, as always, if Valve reads this:

I beg you, test beta on an NVIDIA device on Linux. Accelerating the interface, Big Picture and Remote Play are all full of bugs. I learned to live with them but truly things were much, much better with the legacy Big Picture.

VoxeLibre (formerly MineClone2) v0.87 released moving away from Minecraft

I have mixed feelings about "moving away from Minecraft". Sure, I can just play Minecraft if I want Minecraft.

Then again, Minetest + VoxeLibre/MineClone so far has provided an alternative that was

a) free (as in beer)
b) performing better on low end hardware
c) staying close to Minecraft content

And this was definitely of value to the existing players. So for now, I am mildly anxious what happens next.

They did change Techies but not that much. Some fun to be had.
Give me remote mines and proximity mines or give me death

Any particular reason..?

NVIDIA 555.42.02 Beta driver out bringing Wayland explicit sync
22 May 2024 at 2:55 pm UTC

Quoting: XpanderI'm on X11, so i don't really have any benefit from that hyped up explicit sync support:tongue:
My thoughts as well... Wayland improvements are nice and all but most games and game-adjacent software still default to X11 anyway
