Fedora KDE on a Core 2 Duo-based iMac. It looked great, but when I installed the Broadcom driver and rebooted, the display had issues. No issues with Linux Mint XFCE and the proprietary driver. Might have just been an anomaly, but we normally install Linux Mint XFCE anyway.

@flyingsquirrel.ca they borrowed your nick... We don't get up that way often, you've probably seen this before?
That seems a bit pricey for that processor even w/o the shipping. I think we ewasted a bunch of those not too long ago. We might still have some of you really need one. Or was this a comparative exercise?
A little Saturday joy for #retro enthusiasts.
useful fact: JIS screwdrivers work in Philips screws just fine. Philips screwdrivers will destroy a JIS screw in short order. this leads to lots of stripped screws on old ham radios
I helped make a very small part of #Crashlands2 and it allowed me to see the incredible amount of love poured into it by fantastically talented people! And I am overwhelmingly proud of the work they've done: store.steampowered.com/app/1401730/...

Good times past, with good friends. Still being able to work with Linux at work every day, priceless!
I'm putting together a Canada game dev starter pack in response to this idiotic tariff war so people can support Canada-based game devs through follows / purchases if they choose to.
Reply if you're a game dev in Canada and you want to be on it. Please repost. Thanks!

Oh, you’re a gamer? Well, how long did it take you to beat THIS?!
More grid based CRPGs!
I use the command line a lot, but desktop environment hot keys, and shortcuts (tab completion) have me doing things quicker than I can with the mouse.
Finally got back to doing some work on this project. Made a little acrylic GPU support. Now I need to do something a little more elegant than zip ties on the back.

Too sick to program or do brain-thinky things, so while trapped in bed, I'm sketching out tilesets.

Hecubah's spread was split into three pages interleaved with three others describing the game with screenshots and text. Outside of the ad campaign, Westwood also launched a "Meet Nox Tour" in the same month (October, 1999) in San Francisco that was set up like a giant LAN party.
These three pages split up Hecubah's seductively evil layout with screenshots from the game and text describing the action, spell combos, a "True Vision" feature that was a "line of sight system", interactive environments, traps, quests (the characters you choose each have their own endings), and multiplayer.
In late 1999, Westwood Studios went all out with a hype-building, and mammoth, six-page ad for Nox, an action RPG on PCs arriving in 2000
Three of the pages were dominated by the big bad Queen of the Undead, Hecubah, while the other three show off the isometric, Diablo-like world she seeks to rule!
Nox was an awesome, very underrated game.
Happy birthday, Nolan Bushnell! 🎉
