Linux Gaming Gets Boost: GOG, AI, and a Sandbox!

GOG is actively developing native Linux support for its Galaxy client, signaling a growing interest in the operating system for PC gaming, according to multiple sources. While a specific release date remains unannounced, the move highlights the increasing significance of Linux in the gaming landscape.

The news, first reported by The Verge, stems from a recent job listing for a senior software engineer focused on porting the Galaxy desktop client to Linux. Further confirmation came in a Reddit AMA, where the GOG team revealed that work on native Linux support was already underway. "Its still too early to give an ETA, according to the Reddit thread," stated The Verge.

This development coincides with other news in the tech world. The critically acclaimed Baldur's Gate game series is being adapted into a TV show by Craig Mazin, known for HBO's "The Last of Us" adaptation and "Chernobyl," as reported by BBC Technology. The show will build upon the game's established lore but will feature new storylines, though without the direct involvement of the original game developers, Larian Studios.

The Verge also published a separate article where a writer shared their experience with Linux, stating, "I went back to Linux and it was a mistake." The writer detailed issues with Ubuntu, highlighting the challenges users can face with the operating system.

In other tech news, a new CLI tool called Matchlock was introduced on Hacker News. Matchlock is designed to secure AI agent workloads with a Linux-based sandbox. The tool allows AI agents to run code in isolated, disposable environments, enhancing security by preventing unauthorized access to the host machine.

Super Bowl, Tipping, & Grocery Prices: The Economy's Big Game

Drawing from various sources, the perception of out-of-control tipping in America is only partially accurate. While "tipping fatigue" is real, data from a payment platform's analysis of nearly 90,000 transactions reveals that Americans are becoming more selective, with average tip percentages remaining consistent in everyday categories, but higher gratuities are being awarded for specialized services. This suggests a shift towards differentiated tipping based on service quality rather than a complete rejection of the practice.
