Having just played through the demo of #Yooka-Replaylee on #Steam, I already have a feeling that it will be a much more well rounded game than its original iteration. I love 3D #platformer #collectathons, and I'm very much excited for this release. store.steampowered.com/app/2448020/...

I really like the changes to KUrlNavigator (used in Dolphin for the navigation bar) in @kde.org Frameworks 6.12. The new version clearly communicates intent, you can easily identify special folders by the icon, clickable zones are easy to identify. What a huge UX improvement!

Someone will have to explain to me why it seems like @jetbrains.com IDEs' seem to use a random number generator to decide what scaling to use when launching on KDE Wayland. It randomly decides between my configured scaling option (1.5x), 2x and 1x on launch. It's infuriating.

It's always fun to browse around people's #Linux rices on Reddit, but I just prefer plain old #KDE Breeze, with the Papirus icon theme, and a custom greeter widget that I build with Eww (ElKowar's Wacky Widgets). No fancy transparency, no fancy colors. What does your #Linux desktop look like?

If you are a fan of space games, you really have to pick up @everspace.game . I'm having an absolute blast. What a great way to relax this evening. FYI, it runs really well on handheld devices like the #SteamDeck, and lends itself well to both short and long play sessions.

I watched #CBC 's @ianhanomansing.bsky.social Cross Country Checkup. What an absolute disgrace. #CBC needs to make some serious changes to the editorial board of this show. There is no justification to air a discussion about an annexation Canadians don't support. And O'Leary? Really? Disgraceful.

Surely this new video won't make me seem like a crank. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEJp...

Finished migrating from #openSUSE to #ArchLinux on 2 PCs. systemd-boot is setup with Secure Boot with a custom entry for my seldomly used Windows install (with Bitlocker). Everything works as expected. The only real sadness is that my pipewire config was not in chezmoi.

Maybe it's time to switch to #ArchLinux, BTW...

I'm starting to be properly annoyed by #opensuse 's decision to only provide production branch Nvidia drivers in the repos. 550.x does not provide a good experience on Wayland. Maybe it's time to go back to #Fedora KDE, even if the official repos are lacking core tools that I use (chezmoi).

Today @andrewmoore.ca is back on the show, this time to talk about Linux gaming, we recorded this a bit before CES so we speculate a bit about the Lenovo announcement but besides that it's a great watch Video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=19hW... Audio: creators.spotify.com/pod/show/tec...

I'm definitely not built for 38°C weather. What a scorcher.
