Meeple Station, a cooperative space station simulation game with a Linux demo, heading to Kickstarter soon

It's a space station simulation game, taking inspiration from Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld (with a hint of Space Station 13) with the nature of a real-time strategy game. Although, while the developer doesn't say it, it does also seems to resemble Spacebase DF-9, the game from Double Fine Productions that sadly wasn't finished.

Intel Preparing The Linux Kernel For Cascade Lake AP Multi-Die Support
Intel developers have begun posting their Linux kernel patches for enabling multi-die/package topology support to the Linux kernel as part of their Cascade Lake AP upbringing.
Cascade Lake "Advanced Performance" is a multi-chip package of multiple Cascade Lake dies, expected to be up to 48 cores / 96 threads per package and twelve DDR4 memory channels.

Cascade Lake dies are connected via Ultra Path Interconnect (UPI) links.
