Despite the poor performance (NVIDIA here too), the new Big Picture looks pretty nice.

There is a mysterious new "Game Transfer over Local Network" option in Big Picture's Download Settings. It doesn't save the setting, so I guess that's not supposed to be there - but will look forward to whenever that lands!

Good idea. Though, I forgot about the launcher entirely since setting the launch options on Steam:
/path/to/steamapps/common/Cities_Skylines/Cities.x64 %command%

Quoting: FredOThere is a project to create Linux support for Razer products. Has anybody tried these drivers?

Yes, and there's also a front-end for its daemon: https://github.com/lah7/polychromatic [External Link] (which is my contribution back)

They work great with my 3 Razer products -- BlackWidow Chroma, Mamba TE and the Firefly. If it wasn't for these drivers, I wouldn't have bought Razer stuff to use under Linux.

The author of these drivers even got free stuff from Razer at one point as their way of saying thanks.

A new open standard would be ideal for controlling lighting systems in games, like there is the Chroma SDK for Razer's Chroma keyboards and mice... but it's for Windows only. It would be brilliant if one day there was one SDK, for any platform, regardless of brand.

I use to create things in Fusion 2.0/2.5 as a hobby, it ran pretty well under Wine, even with the Android / HTML5 exporters. I stopped using it eventually since it made no sense to me making Windows programs/games under Linux, and started to feel clunky, so I picked up code instead.

I think I'll definitely pick this back up when this shiny new Fusion 3 comes out next year. Great news!

Thanks for the update, looks good!

I'd like to suggest the stats page includes some distro/DE icons for the "Click for full stats" entries. Icons to me feel easier to digest than plain old text and numbers.
