If you go into Steam Settings and enable both Steam Play options (and keep Proton on the most current) you can install Dwarf Fortress just fine in Linux. That's how I play it just now. 👍

Some planets, particularly young ones, are puffy. These gaseous worlds have size, but lack mass, meaning they have a consistency similar to cotton candy! #CottonCandyDay

I always find it amazing that Saturn is 2/3 as dense as water, and would float in it.

Time for a Mars “close-up”! 📸

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

is this new or have they been doing it the whole time? I never understood how their directx translation was so slow being that the problem's already been solved for years with DXVK.


Cotton candy … planets? These “super-puffs,” discovered by our @NASAExoplanets Kepler telescope, look as big as Jupiter but are roughly a hundred times lighter in mass. Like real cotton candy, their puffy atmospheres won’t last forever: go.nasa.gov/3WhgZi3 #CottonCandyDay

According to the NASA feed today is the 50's anniversary of the launch of the last moon rocket.

It's been 50 years since a human left low earth orbit.

Earth has lost 561 square miles (1,453 square kilometers) of salt marshes in the past 20 years, a new @nasa study using #Landsat data shows.

Degrading marsh habitats releases carbon dioxide – a greenhouse gas – into the atmosphere. go.nasa.gov/3UEtIdg

Content warning: semi serious, fedi apis


at this point can someone just patch the mastodon api onto misskey?

yeah it's an ugly api (i think it was written before mastodon terminology was finalized, also sends everyone's bio with each post) but it has good app support, so...
