Halloween Harry (aka Alien Carnage) is an MS-DOS game released as shareware in 1993 by Apogee Software and later re-released as freeware in 2007 by 3D Realms.
Halloween Harry was originally developed in the early 90s by Interactive Binary Illusions and SubZero Software and distributed as shareware by Apogee Software.
The gameplay of Halloween Harry is remarkably similar to Duke Nukem 1 & 2 which was also released by Apogee Software in the early 90s.
I recorded the gameplay footage on openSUSE Linux using Dosbox.
Distro Delves is a series where I try out various Linux Distros (or other OSes) and give my thoughts about them at the end of the episode.
Episodes aren't meant to be comprehensive; they are short informational & opinionated reviews from a desktop user's perspective! Learn more about the series here - https://distrodelves.io/faq

I'd been using KDE Neon full time for the past month and it has been a pretty interesting experience.
In the first video on this channel, I was running KDE 4 on openSUSE Factory. The upgrade to KDE Plasma 5 really turned me off from KDE because it seemed so buggy. Some bugs were bad enough that Kwin would crash and only a restart would bring it back.
After that, I bounced around on GTK based desktops for a while and delved into GTK development. I probably stuck with ElementaryOS the longest of all the distros.
I revisited KDE with my "Why Is KDE So Buggy" video and I was really impressed without smooth and stable it was. So impressed that I decided to retire my beloved ElementaryOS for a month and try out KDE Neon. I'm very pleased I did.
You can also get the full Linux KDE experience by using Kubuntu, Linux Mint KDE, or Antergos KDE. KDE Neon is just the semi-official distribution of KDE by the KDE team.

Installing a different desktop environment on SteamOS is pretty easy, you'll just need to reset the "auto-login" setting.
You may have noticed a user named "egee". Creating and setting up a user is a bit more advanced and I might cover it in another video. For pretty much every basic user task, using the default "desktop" user works just fine.
If you're still using SteamOS Alchemist, these steps *should* be the exact same. I did this how-to using Brewmaster.

Here are the hypervisors I use when I want to virtualize all of the things. VMWare Player is my first choice for most things, and VirtualBox is my back up choice for obscure OS's that don't work on VMWare. I like QEMU but I prefer a user-friendly interface and Gnome-Boxes is just too buggy.

When recording game footage on Linux, typically the default option is Simple Screen Recorder or something similar. Any software-based recording applications will cause a drop in frame rate because the actual game frames are being funneled through the recording software before they reach your monitor.
An alternative to software-based recording are external devices. I shopped around until I found the Hauppauge HD PVR Rocket, which works great for recording things like games. Most (if not all) external video recorders like the PVR Rocket don't have drivers for Linux, which sucks, but they always support a "pass-thru" mode which is what consoles like XBox and PS3/4 use. Basically, plug the video output (from the graphics card) from your computer into the external recorder, and then plug the external recorder into the monitor. It's as simple as that.

In this episode of Distro Delves we're checking out Endeavour OS! The iso I used to install EndeavourOS in the video was published on December 23th 2019.
EndeavourOS is yet another "unique" Linux distro because it aim's to be a sort of spiritual successor to the discontinued Antergos Linux distro, with its own "special sauce" mixed in.
I've never used Antergos but EndeavourOS really did feel like a regular Arch install with a handy "welcome app" which had some really handy utilities for Arch.
The DE I used in the video was Xfce but Endeavour OS ships with a bunch of different DEs.
The apps I install as part of the test are:
+ Wine
+ Steam
+ Audacity
+ Discord
+ Docker
+ OBS-Studio
+ Virtual Box
+ VSCode
+ Slack
+ Spotify
+ Minecraft
+ TeamViewer
+ Zoom Meeting

If you thought the latest Mesa version magically offered better performance - you are wrong.
The funny thing is that I filmed most of this footage prior to my previous video pitting Mesa 12.0.6 against AMDGPU-Pro 17.10 but you guys made such a big deal about the fact I was using "old" drivers, I decided change the scope of the video.
You shouldn't be surprised by the findings in this video. They largely match what Michael over at Phoronix found in his benchmark - http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=mesa-171git-rx470
Assuming that the latest display drivers, especially the latest *development* drivers, will offer better performance over stable drivers is a myth. Never risk system stability over possible performance boosts. Its just not worth it.
