31 Jan 2020 at 12:26 am UTC

FTL is just a masterpiece, period.
I don't care about achievements though.
But yeah I'm patiently waiting for the Linux port of Into the Breach!

I have the game since 2016 in my GOG library and didn't really played it. In fact I waited the final act to be able to start it. :)

Nethercard Kingdom - a free deck-builder with real-time battles

Quoting: PikoloDoesn't work in Firefox with all the privacy options turned on. It also tries to use asm.js despire Firefox's excellent support for WebAssembly.

Does work in Chrome, and without asm.js. Weird
I observed recently for another game HTML5 that didn't work on my Firefox. In that case if simply allow some sites with NoScript is not enough I simply avoid it.
For that reason I hugely prefer a Linux standalone version.

Have an Intel processor? Enjoy two more vulnerabilities

Like previous vulnerabilities, it's indeed a serious problem and I hate more Intel for that as they're worst than AMD.
The issue with these x86 processors, two big manufacturers, which the most of people used and are using.
This is not just a personal issue but a political and an economic one...
But yeah I don't read too much "real" cases about that in the news (sadly?).

Open source processors? Open Hardware? Ideally for that sort of thing a country should not use material from another... as we know at least since 2013 how it can affect societies as a whole (but yeah I speak in large, not only processors vulnerabilities).

My poor i5-2500K...

I didn't know GST or even GWE, great tools! And both available in Arch (GST in AUR and GWE in official community)! :)

PS: Ahah in fact there was a news about it last year... but it seems I didn't take time to try it out. :whistle:

Get ready to live a Life of Crime with Kingpin: Reloaded announced by 3D Realms - will be coming to Linux
27 Jan 2020 at 2:42 pm UTC

It seems the original game was great, I didn't play it but I might try this remaster!
Hope for a GOG/Linux release too.

'ReDoomEd', a port of the original Doom level editor, was released on Linux
26 Jan 2020 at 10:41 pm UTC

Quoting: KayKay91Yo ya forgot to mention SLADE [External Link] which also can be used for map editing.
Briefly, what are the differences between SLADE3 and ReDoomEd (or any other Doom level editor)?
