  • Spinnortality, a cyberpunk management sim with an aim of becoming immortal is coming to Linux

    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.

  • How to enable Steam Play (Proton) directly in SteamOS

    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?

  • An updated Steam Client is out, should be more responsive when downloading

    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.

  • Smith and Winston, the beautiful voxel-based twin stick shooter with a focus on exploration is now on Steam

    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 might not look like much but it's surprisingly good

    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.

  • Happy Room, a game of completely mindless fun that works well on Linux

    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, the open world adventure where you're a travelling artist has a new trailer and release date

    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.

  • Intel's ANV Vulkan Driver Aiming For Transform Feedback In Mesa 19.0, Helping DXVK

    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.

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
