  • The Humble Humongous Entertainment Bundle is up and a great deal if you have children

    The Humble Humongous Entertainment Bundle just went live and honestly it's a fantastic deal if you have children with quite a few games included.

  • Linux Game Jam 2019 is officially live, go make something cool

    Have some time free over the next 9 days? The Linux Game Jam 2019 just launched and could be a way for you to show off a little or just have some fun.

    The rules are pretty simple: it must have a Linux build, programming for the game has to be done during the Game Jam to be fair, give clear instructions on how to run the game, extra points if it's open source, it must be submitted to their itch.io page before April 20th 2019 at 4 AM UTC.

    What's really fun to see, is that they have managed to pull in a few experienced developers to act as mentors and give advice this year.

  • Your Future Self, a story-driven experimental text adventure has released a Linux version

    How about something a little different? Your Future Self is a somewhat short at 1-2 hours story-driven experimental text adventure and it's now supported on Linux.

    It actually looks pretty good and the few user reviews it has make it sound quite interesting. The developer promises a "gripping, suspenseful, emotionally charged narrative" that deals with some current politically important topics such as "climate change, refugee crises, and mental illness".

  • The MMO 'Albion Online' has officially gone free to play and it supports Linux

    For those who are itching to play an MMO on Linux but don't want to pay a subscription, Albion Online just opened up the flood gates.

    Unlike a lot of MMOs Albion Online doesn't have traditional classes, quests and it's very much a sandbox do whatever you want experience. It's a little odd and focused a lot on player versus player combat, although the recent Oberon update made improvements for PvE and there's a lot of features for bigger groups of players and Guilds.

  • Dandara, a gravity-defying 2d metroidvania platformer that's worth a look

    Have you played Dandara? It's a 2d metroidvania platformer that's pretty unique, as you don't run along platforms like other similar games. Instead, you defy gravity by zipping from place to place and it's very interesting to play.

    Dandara was originally released with Linux support back in February of last year. Sadly, I never got a response to my request for a key to take a look at it. Thankfully, Humble Store sent me a copy of their recent Humble Monthly and Dandara was one of the included games.

  • Online FPS 'War Brokers' updated with a friends system, spectator mode and more

    War Brokers is a pretty good online FPS that has a number of different game modes like Battle Royale, Team Deathmatch and more. It also has vehicles and a lot of other surprising features.

    Very much an indie game though and considering it's Early Access, there's plenty of rough edges. Promising though, one I do enjoy jumping into now and then for a few rounds.

  • 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.
