Linux Hardware I highlighted a few key points of the press conference with HP/System76 for their new HP Dev One laptop.

DRAG is a tough-as-nails racing game that’s available natively on Linux. It went to Steam in early access, and it hasn’t been updated in over a year (and unsurprisingly, the developers didn’t get back to me when I asked on their Discord how progress was coming along). But now it seems like we’ve finally got an update. Not an actual software update; just a general update on what the roadmap for the game is.

Small update for Steam Deck users has landed today. Performance has been improved for the Recent Games carousel on the Home screen, and a few bug fixes have been added. Changelog is as follows: Improved performance for the Home screen Recent Games carousel Fixed boot glitching and crashes experienced by some customers Fixed Quick Access volume sliders not working after suspend/resume Fixed an issue in the controller reorder screen where moving to a controller slot higher than the current number of connected controllers would show as ‘!

Yesterday I got invited to a Zoom press conference by HP and System76 in regards to HP’s Dev One laptop. Here were some of the key points I picked up on.

That means a little over 200 users out of the 2,096 reporters are using it. Currently it’s standing neck-and-neck with Pop!_OS, the latter of which is at 10.4%. It’s not really surprising to see.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl got a much-needed quality-of-life update. Previously, characters had no voices, although you could technically mod them in. It made matches feel empty. Well that’s no longer the case as of today’s update. All characters now have voices as they jump, do a smash attack, or taunt. I’m happy to see my favorite character, Jenny Wakeman, still voiced by the same actress as the show that she was in: Janice Kawaye.

Welcome to LGC’s first hardware review! When it comes to audio, I’m a bit of an audiophile. I’ve owned several headphones; some were really good, others not so much. I’m particularly a fan of headphones that deliver deep bass. I recently discovered the Hecate G33BT from Edifier. Bought it on sale on eBay. I’ve never heard of the company before, didn’t even bother to check any reviews before I bought it, but I got it anyway.
