Meeple Station, a cooperative space station simulation game with a Linux demo, heading to Kickstarter soon
I honestly can't get enough simulation building games, so finding out about Meeple Station was a bit of a treat.
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.

Single-board computer guide updated: Free software is winning on ARM!
In many geeky circles, single-board computers are popular machines. SBCs come in small form factors and generally run GNU/Linux, but unfortunately, many boards like the popular Raspberry Pi are dependent on proprietary software to use. The Free Software Foundation maintains a list of system-on-chip families, sorted by their freedom status.
Unfortunately, this list had not been updated in several years. While it was accurate when it was published, free software is constantly improving. Today, more and more boards are usable with free software. On the graphical side, the Etnaviv project has reached maturity, and the Panfrost project, with which I have been personally involved, has sprung up. The video processing unit on Allwinner chips has been reverse-engineered and liberated by the linux-sunxi community in tandem with Bootlin. Rockchip boards have become viable competitors to their better known counterparts. Even the Raspberry Pi has had a proof-of-concept free firmware replacement developed. Free software is winning on ARM.
