This is the Slimbook Titan, Slimbook's most powerful laptop that basically comes with all the options, including a mechanical keyboard, a high refresh rate display, and monster specs. Oh and also it's fast because it has RGB and Stickers. Let's take a look at what that thing can do!

It's paired to an amazing 1440p 15 inch IPS display with freesync, an opto mechanical keyboard. It comes with 16Gb of RAM, and 500Gb of SSD. The chassis is made of black aluminium for the most part, with only the bottom plate being made out of black plastic. It's a hefty laptop, at 2.2 kilograms, and it's a thicc boi, at 26mm. The build quality is really, really good. There is absolutely no flex, or give, on the keyboard, or around it. The branding on the back is nice and minimal, which I like, it gives a classy, professional look, but under the screen, it's a bit too big for my tastes. Tt's got great I/O, with a USB 3.1 gen 2 port, an audio and a microhpone jack on the left side, a full size SD card reader and 2 USB 3.1 ports on the right side, and a USB C 3.2 gen 2 port with video out, an HDMI 2.1 port, a 2.5gigs ethernet jack, and the barrel charger on the back. The display itself is a thing of beauty. First, the 1440p resolution on a 15 inch screen makes sense, even though it might be a bit small for some people. Second, it can go up to a 165hz refresh rate, which makes it an excellent display for gaming. Third, it's freesync compatible, which means no screen tearing. The bezels are alright, except for the bottom one, which is pretty big, but it's a really good panel. Viewing angles are perfect, brightness is really high, and the contrast is quite nice too. Now let's talk about that keyboard. It's an opto-mechanical one. It's got a real nice feel to it, with a decent 2mm key travel, very good key stability, and the keycaps are nice and big, so typi ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKCtKVY_g48

Borderlands 3 was released last week, and I was eager to try and see if it would run on Linux. Turns out, it does, and very well, but there is a fair bit of tweaking required. Let's see how to do it !

That means no easy Proton integration, but there is a simple way to get things started: Lutris. I won't spend too much time telling you how to install Lutris, all the instructions are on their website, follow them to make sure you have all the necessary libraries, and install Lutris from your package manager or the repositories they provide. Once Lutris is installed, you'll need to install the Epic Games Store. In Lutris, click the search icon, and and type "epic games". Click the EGS, and then "install". You'll see a small pop-up window, click the install button, and select where you want the files to go. Let the installer run its course, it'll configure everything for you. Once it's done, Lutris will let you know, click "Launch"! Next, you'll have to log in the EGS, or create an account if you don't already have one, which you probably don't. You'll also have to buy Borderlands 3 from the store. You can get refunds for 14 days after purchase, as long as you haven't played more than 2 hours, so no worries here if those steps don't work for you. Now, let's make the necessary tweaks. Tweaks In Lutris, right click the EGS, and select "Configure". In the "runner options" tab, click "disable esync". This will allow the game to run. We need to add the necessary codecs and dlls so that the game can read these MP4 files. Let's start ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvmTAR3I8Ww

GNOME 3.34 packs a lot of new features and improvements, let's take a little tour !

There have been a few improvements to GNOME Shell. First, GNOME 3.34 continues the latest tendency to optimize speed and performance. It will be subjective, and depend on your machine, but on mine, running fedora rawhide with the latest GNOME, I can say it's definitely smoother. Animations feel more responsive, and the activities overview does appear faster than on that same machine on manjaro GNOME running 3.32. The most user facing feature, though, is the ability to reorganize apps into folders by simple drag and drop in the applications overview. It works just like on your smartphone: drag an app on top of another to create a folder. The folder has an automatic name based on shared categories between apps. This is a much needed improvement, and should make using the app grid a lot easier for people allergic to keyboards ! In the Activities overlay, when showing all windows, the highlight over a specific windows also has been tweaked, and the shell's appearance has been tweaked a bit, with a darker background to make everything more legible. To conclude, some more apps have migrated to the new GNOME icon guidelines, namely Photos, Videos, Todo, and Simple Scan, whose user facing name is now "Document Scanner". The settings have been touched up a bit as well, with a brand new wallpaper panel. It now allows you to select an image outside of the "pictures" folder to be used as your wallpaper, and makes viewing all available wallpapers a lot easier. While it's a good improvement, I also can't help but think that this should have been added a long time ago. In the displays settings, night light now has its own tab, which is a good change, making things better organized. The wifi panel also has better spacing, and will now show an status indicator when you're trying to connect to a wifi network. GNOME shell search providers can also be reordered in the dedicated settings panel. Nautilus, the file manager, will now show a warning dialog when a user tries to paste something in a read-only folder. This change makes it a lot more comprehensible to users. GNOME Web, also called epiphany, now supports pinning tabs, for keeping a few webapps open at all times, and ships with a new emoji picker.
