KDE finally gets root operations in Dolphin, big 2022 plans for Wayland

Quoting: tamodolo
Quoting: FredrikI wonder if that means hdr support is coming. And I also hope they will make wayland usable with nvidia cards too.
I think support for higher than 8bit color is needed before HDR. It's 2022 and I still can't output 10bit color space to my monitor...
That was added this week, and is mentioned in the post.

AI Kingdoms arrive for Kingdoms and Castles in a new Beta

Quoting: Anza
Quoting: kaimanThat must be the second big update out after I thought the game to be abandoned. Sometimes I cannot really fathom how those indie devs manage to survive. Unless they do it besides their day job (which would also account for the long time between updates).
Looks like at least it started that way. What I can quickly see that they have grown only slightly and added one person since. That's pretty much all I got from the news update where they talk about the progress over the years: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/569480/view/3103539804169980543 [External Link]

I have had this in my wishlist for quite a while, but based on the reviews it hasn't been ready enough. It looks like that progress is clearly going right direction and latest update will even add more playtime.
With the next-version-preview branch (this AI kingdoms update basically), I squeezed out another 5 hours of play time over two days. I've played a total of 26 hours. Don't really feel like there's much left to do, so I probably wont play again unless another update lands, but I also don't mind as I think the time I did have in the game was quite pleasant.

Even though there's not much play time to be had overall at the moment, I think you should still consider picking it up. It's relaxing, it's a good few hours of fun, and it's not expensive.

AMD celebrates 5 years of Ryzen, a Zen 3 refresh with 3D V-Cache due in 2022

Quoting: mrazsterReally loving the “roll” AMD is on, atm !:tongue::heart:
I was planing on upgrading some of my hardware (cpu, gfx, ram) later this year, as the last upgrade on the AM4 platform. But I think I'll stick with what I have until spring 2022, and that will then be my last upgrade on AM4. Save up some extra “c.r.e.a.m” and go for the top/high-end stuff instead of the mid/high-end I usually do, as a way of making it last as long as possible before the next upgrade.
Assuming supply issues don't ruin those plans.

It'd be neat to see Minecraft also go on steam. Would definitely grab it there too.

Here's hoping valve gets every penny back plus more and Ironburg goes bunk

Can Ironburg just burn in a hole in the ground? This kind if shit is what prevents us from progressing.

Too bad it's already running an ancient version of KDE Plasma.

Been waiting a long time for the AI update to land. Looking forward to it finally releasing so I can give the game a play again.

Wolfenstein - Blade of Agony gets another big update in the 3.1 release

They really should have made a separate censored version instead of censoring the game for everyone. People need to grow up and move on instead of censoring every little thing. It's utterly ridiculous.
