@RaspberryPi has just launched the new Raspberry Pi 500 AND a new companion monitor.

Yes.

1.18.3 has been released! Overall this is a pretty quiet release containing several small fixes or improvements to different areas of the game.

Good episode of the Linux After Dark #podcast - although given my background, I was muttering to myself in the car while I listened to it! Seemed like a good bit of support for the Fediverse and Mastodon as "better" social media, though! https://episodes.fm/aHR0cHM6Ly9saW51eGFmdGVyZGFyay5uZXQvZmVlZC9wb2RjYXN0/episode/aHR0cHM6Ly9saW51eGFmdGVyZGFyay5uZXQvP3A9NDg0

I did this talk recently on #ai and #openedtech

Whoop! New free course available: Linux introduction course.

In preparation for the new teaching year, I've updated my
#gamedesign
cheat sheets for
#gamedev
learners!

Each is a summary of a lecture that builds to a deep and meaningful understanding of the toolset of the game designer.

Unfortunately it's 10 pages so I need to make a thread to cover it all...
