But how will I know when it's a new year without Steam to tell me‽ :tongue:

Custom boot animations for the Steam Deck are pretty sweet

Quoting: dosThe change you're supposed to apply actually makes the file a bit smaller (you edit `0` to `1` and `300px` to `100%` twice), so the point of that truncate command is to make the file larger again to match the original size.
That explains it, thanks muchly!

Trombone Champ is my new favourite rhythm game

You're telling me you don't want a four-part trombone ensemble playing along to the same song, perhaps with different parts? That sounds amazing! :woot:

Well, OK, with people's general skill level it would probably sound cacophonic. :grin: But I bet with the right people it'd be a rip-roaring raucous good time!

I had to go and watch Liam's video again, I got that much enjoyment from it. Does anyone know if they happen to have plans for support for custom songs or multiplayer? 'cause that might be an insta-buy for me.

Pretty cool idea. Do you need the CSS line with flex-grow if you render the video natively at 1280×800?

Also, clearly it works so I must be missing something, but how does truncating the CSS file after you've added something to it not cause something important to be truncated from the end? :huh:

Stop, Liam! My sides can only take so much laughter! 😂 Not at your playing (I certainly wouldn't be any better), just at the entire inherently hilarious concept. It's funny because just this weekend I was idly musing about games being developed for the Deck where its gyroscope would be an important part of the game, and here one is!

Quoting: constThis replaced Aperture Desk Job as my showoff game for the Deck. It's just instant fun, both playing and looking over the shoulder.
I may have to do this.

Paradox Arc to publish sci-fi base builder Stardeus, entering Early Access in October

Seeing this jogged my memory that I played the demo during a Steam Next Fest a while back (maybe early this year? Late last year?). I don't actually remember much of the gameplay, though, I guess it didn't grab my attention. Maybe I'll take another look now.

KDE are raising funds for the Kdenlive video editor

Nice, I'll have to donate. When I got into video editing back in 2017 Kdenlive was the only editor I could find with the right level of features, and I've used it quite a bit since.

That looks incredibly useful! Now, er, for those of us who've never set up a collection before, maybe a quick step-by-step would be nice? :whistle:
