Episode 39: Destination Linux EP39 – The Bit You Should Read

Welcome to Episode 39 of Destination Linux for 10/02/17 Correction from last week Just to set things straight, ArchMerge is a separate project from ArchLabs with a completely separate team. There is no collaboration between ArchLabs and ArchMerge and they have a completely different vision about a distro. They each go their own way. I apologize for confusing the two together. News Ubuntu Is Dropping 32-bit Desktop Images Last year OMGubuntu ran a poll asking how which version of Ubuntu you use: 32-bit or 64-bit. The results of that poll revealed that 92% run Ubuntu 64-bit already. Badges and progress bar on Ubuntu Dock Ubuntu Dock Now Supports Progress Bars and Badge Counts Bad News for Users of TopIcons Plus… Ubuntu Beta 2 Download Ubuntu Budgie 17.10 Beta 2 Ubuntu Budgie 17.10 Beta 2 Download Ubuntu MATE 17.10 Beta 2 Ubuntu Mate Beta 2 Download It’s Beta season for all the ‘buntu’s…..Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Kylin Kubuntu 17.10 Beta 2 Kubuntu 17.10 Beta 2 Download KDE Plasma 5.11 Desktop Will Be Coming to Kubuntu 17.10 Soon After Its Release Adapta Theme is Now Available for the KDE Plasma Desktop Adobe Brackets 1.11 Released Opera Web Browser Now Has Built-In WhatsApp And FB Messenger Chrome Extension Embeds In-Browser Monero Miner That Drains Your CPU Linux 4.14 Is Up To Around 23.2 Million Lines Of Code Linux Kernel Grows Past 15 Million Lines of Code 2012 Gaming What have I been playing: This week has been full of Half Life 2 gameplay. It’s a relic that’s sat in my Summer Sale games archive for a while and considered by many to be one of the best games ever created by Valve. I’ve finally broken it out and starting to play through the story. It runs beautifully on Linux and so far find the very hurried pace and a solid story to be incredibly engaging. The fact that I am playing this means Half-Life 3 is confirmed! Half-Life: C.A.G.E.D. from former Valve worker should hopefully come to Linux Might be worth letting them know in the post if you’re interested. ‘SC Controller’ has a pre-release to support more gamepads Atari is launching a new gaming system, the ‘Ataribox’ Official Website WWI FPS ‘Tannenberg’ from the developers of Verdun to see day-1 Linux support Rocket League’s huge ‘Autumn Update’ is now available The SNES Classic Mini Uses the Same Hardware as the NES Mini Admin Destination Linux Apparel Where Can You Find Us This Week Rocco and Ryan will be playing Rocket League live this week on DasGeek Channel Friday Night Live on the BigDaddyLinux Channel Twitter @dasgeekchannel @bigdaddylinux A big thank you to each and every one of you for supporting us and Thank you For Watching Destination Linux Have a great week and remember the Journey ITSELF is just as important as the Destination

Welcome to Episode 35 of Destination Linux for 09/04/17 News This Week in Solus – Install #46 Solus 3 has had quite the reception but the work continues including a TO-DO list posted on Solus site for all the features, enhancements and bug fixes they’re working on. https://dev.solus-project.com/T4235 Some High Priority Items that are being worked on I think will be refreshing for many Third Party support is one of the pain points I’ve heard and Ikey and the team have taken note.
