Linux continues to be above 4% on the desktop
According to the StatCounter, Linux on the desktop has continued to rise and remains above 4%, with this being the healthiest it's ever looked on the desktop.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I know that this year I had went to my Linux box as my virtually only desktop.
My laptop I take to game will probably get swapped over as I got it in 2018. With some dork ups (Like my Diablo, SC2, and WoW not working right, when it had been) I've not had to do anything to game on my windows box (which is also the older, not upgraded machine)
I imagine many people feel the same way. I used to use my linux box for productivity and exploration, and win for gaming. Not so much nw
God damn the #Helldivers2 marketing team are hilarious.

Traditional Japanese diet associated with less brain shrinkage in women compared to western diet, says research
"The typical Japanese diet is characterised by foods such as rice, fish and shellfish, and fruits (especially citrus fruits). But what makes this diet unique are traditional Japanese foods such as miso (fermented soybean paste), seaweed, pickles, green tea, soybeans, soybeans sprouts and mushrooms (such as shiitake). Notably, this diet is also characterised by low intake of red meat and coffee."

It’s Eclipse Day!
Hey, gang. Today is the solar eclipse, it’s supposed to be mostly sunny here in Colchester, VT, we’ve got 3 minutes ankottke.org
We traveled to Toledo, Ohio last night for today’s #eclipse. The journey from here depends on the clouds.
Wishing everyone clear skies & great viewing. Have fun & make sure to protect your eyes. science.nasa.gov/eclipses
We landed in Napoleon, Ohio - the home of the Campbell’s Soup factory - for today’s total #eclipse.
The view was spectacular.
How did your experiences go? /2

I briefly looked out the window, saw the dense cloud - and since it would only reach ~20% coverage in Seattle anyway, I vicariously followed everyone's reactions on here instead!
(I've seen a total solar eclipse - and a ~92% one - before, so I didn't feel completely left out...)

Check out the Manjaro Linux lead talk about the Orange Pi NEO gaming handheld
The Orange Pi NEO is an exciting looking gaming device, following in the footsteps of the Steam Deck being powered by Linux. Recently the price was revealed, and the Manjaro Linux head Philip Müller did a talk on it.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Incredibly bad talk. The text barely makes sense at many points, the speaker is barely able to read it out loud, and keeps messing up. Feels like a complete waste to have an expert and force them to read a couple of poorly translated marketing statements.
The design of this is clearly heavily inspired by the Steam Deck. 16:10 screen, two touchpads and a Linux OS, so it must ship Proton to be of any use. Valve should really hurry up and release a Steam OS distro.
The details in the hardware look nice, like Hall Effect joysticks. But my faith in the Manjaro devs is limited, and Orange Pi doesn't have a huge reputation yet (no complaints with my Zero 3 yet).
Interested to see how this plays out.
