Being A Linux Gamer Is The Best
Sitting here this morning sipping my coffee, I decided to have a look at ProtonDB, the best source for game compatibility information for Linux users. It's really great to see how many games just work now, thanks to the collective effort of WINE developers, DXVK's developers, Valve, and Proton's developers. Long story short: on Steam, […]
Open Source vs Proprietary – From a Retired Microsoft Dev – YouTube
TL;DR version of my thoughts: With open source, you own the means of production, which may entail more work but you are NEVER left out in the cold when the company decides you're not profitable anymore.

This officially puts my Kickstarter record at more […]
Static App Images Are Hard To Update
I was looking at anbox - a neat little program for running Android applications on Ubuntu - and was a bit unhappy to see that it was only supported on LTS releases, primarily because of kernel modules that aren't actually part of the snap package in which it's distributed. We're told that static images are […]
