Sure. The steam version is easiest, just install steam, get the game through steam and it should just work. Heres a website that tracks compatibility with linux through proton, valve’s solution to running windows games, its installed by default when you get steam: https://www.protondb.com/app/389730

Is it the Ur-Quan masters, aka Star Control II?

sadly, there are a lot of important newer x86 patents that are still years off, and new ones are added every few years, so the best you could do next year is a 20 year old chip.

oh wow, no one is left from that disagreement, they both resigned.

Alright, fair. I was more refering to the content of the message, not the (botched) metaphore of maintainers as a force of order.

I read the “thin blue line” email and it seems… reasonable and sensible? And seeing how he is so appaled by it makes me question his judgement a bit.

Its finally happening??

hmmm, did you try switching(vendor change) all system packages to pacman? (an option in the yast software installation module when you select the repository)

They recently added support for this in the kernel for AMD cpu cores, so this might have changed.

I suppose Rigs of Rods fits the bill, although I never played it.

I used it as my main DE a few years ago, its great! Really cool UI, completely different to all other DE’s but it makes sense, and it has some cool stylings like for example virtual desktops icons being the actual desktops, just really tiny. The bugs, however, kept piling up, and it (segmentation fault)ed too often, so I had to abandon it. Last I heard, the reason it doesn’t get major dev work anymore is that its really hard to work with.

Tuxkart is really great! One of the really good FOSS games, it has multiplayer and it even supports the wiimote :)

Lots of “source available” licenses have a clause that a few years after development stops it becomes open source. Thing is, software with those clauses have existed for years now, and I dont know of a single case where it actually came into effect. Its very easy to have a minor patch every four years to prevent the license change, and if the devs of the software actually wanted to open source it, they would have done so whenever they wanted instead of only promising it. Clauses like that are supposed to combat abandonware, but abandonware does not usually happen because someone forgot the software existed, its a conscious choice to not release the source.

Im very interested in an officially supported linux phone, however the fitmware seems not to be upstream(yet?). I hope it will be upstreamed, or else were back to square one with linux mobile hardware support if they stop working on it!

Never tried it on desktop, only mobile, but Organic Maps is really good and has a desktop version

I have many DE’s installed right now and I never encountered any problems because of it, these issues sound really bizarre. With the cinnamon thing it sounds like cinnamon mangles something while running, but you would still have this problem if you only ever installed cinnamon, so… ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

IzzyOnDroid gets their packages by searching for Apks on github in a semi-automated manner and does basically no filtering on its own, so there may be low quality or malicious apps on there.

I dont know if it exists in plasma but its an option in enlightenment if that helps?
