• Quite a surprise turning up in my inbox recently. Spinnortality, a cyberpunk management sim that looks really good is releasing with Linux support next month. Funded with help from Kickstarter (one we missed) back in December 2017, they also had a grant from the Austrian government. • As we all know, in August of 2018, Valve rebranded Steam Play and released Proton, a forked version of Wine which includes DXVK, into the Linux Steam client.

This allowed users to very easily run Windows-only games, without the hassle of vanilla Wine and DXVK. Sadly however, this option to enable Proton is still non-existent within Big Picture Mode, which also affects SteamOS. While this may appear odd at first, the speculation is that this will be added in when Proton is no longer in Beta, and a possible major update to SteamOS will boast the ability to play Windows titles commercially. Perhaps that could also be a sign of new Steam Machines? • Valve have now rolled out the latest stable update to the Steam Client which includes some nice fixes and improvements. One issue I certainly noticed, since I am downloading games pretty much all the time is how often the Steam Client became unresponsive while downloading. Valve have improved this in the latest build, which is great.

• I've been massively impressed with my time spent in Smith and Winston, which just made its way onto Steam for some Early Access fun. • Fruit Tower Defense from developer Fratboy Entertainment is a title you could easily skip over and disregard due to the style but it's actually quite good. Note: Key provided by the developer. It's not graphically impressive in any way but it more than makes up for this with the challenge.

• It gets a lot more amusing later on too, that was a very early part of the game with little available to me. Crossbow unlocked you say? Show me more! I will openly admit that Happy Room gave me a rather large amount of laughs. I'm not sure if that's the devil inside me wanting to get out or I just needed a break from everything else but I enjoyed it.

Seriously, at one point I was nearly crying with laughter at just how long some of it can go on for, especially amusing when you think it's all over and a Crossbow has just one more bolt to throw. • Eastshade certainly looks like a wonderfully peaceful experience and the new trailer show it off rather well, it's releasing soon too on February 13th. • With Mesa 19.0 entering its feature freeze in three weeks, the race is on for finishing up OpenGL/Vulkan driver changes to make it in this next quarterly installment of these 3D open-source Linux graphics drivers. In addition to potentially landing the SPIR-V Clover support in time for Mesa 19.0, Intel ANV lead developer Jason Ekstrand has commented on the changes he would like to see happen in time for this first release of 2019.

The troll has spread further. Tech tabloids looking to badmouth GNU/Linux at all cost.] An experiment into new Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) standards accidentally knocked internet users offline twice this month, researchers have admitted. A group of researchers from universities across the world teamed up this month to try and discover “evaluated alternatives for speeding up adoption of BGP route origin validation”. Similar experiments, such as one in 2010 by Duke University, caused disruption due to a bug in some routers, which caused denial of service attacks. • While admins can gain deployment flexibility when they run the Docker Unix socket inside a container, that model carries some risk.

Conference support, online since 2003, and dedicated to my interventions in schools, symposiums. Terms of Cyberpunk, and multimedia artist, by the neologism of NooNaute, for his poetic. Protect us from the cold, and they are also communication tools sending. Nothing surprising in his desire to combine the two.
