Fedora 30 (See What's New)

The Fedora Project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Fedora 30 Beta, the next big step on our journey to the exciting Fedora 30 release. I just installed the Fedora Workstation 30 Beta yesterday and so far things are looking great.

Zorin OS 15 (See What's New)

The Zorin OS team has published a new beta release which offers enhanced performance and a preview of features to come in Zorin OS 15. The beta is based on Ubuntu 18.04.2 and includes a night mode, the ability to connect to Android devices to sync notifications, share files and send text messages between the two devices. Flatpak support has also been added to the distribution and is available by default.

Protect our files with encryption in Linux

To be sure that no one can violate our archives, let us rely on one of the most powerful applications created for this purpose: VeraCrypt. Nowadays the security of our files is increasingly at risk. Not only must we beware of other possible users of our computer or those connected to the network, but also threats that are continuously present on the Internet. So if we want to make sure that no one pokes their noses in our most precious files, we just have to use encryption, making them so unreadable for anyone but us.

Windows 95 work in Linux

 Even if we are not interested in Microsoft's operating systems, we use this interesting application on our desktop to maybe try out vintage games! Born August 24th 1995, Windows 95 is the first 16/32 bit hybrid operating system with graphic interface marked Microsoft and replaces the old DOS. Abandoned in 2001, it is exhumed, twenty-three years after the his release, from an imaginative developer, Felix Rieseberg, who offers it to us running on our desktop. 

 This is clearly a nostalgic operation, given that our operating system is light years ahead.Nothing prevents us from dusting off old Windows programs, no longer functioning with the current Microsoft operating system, like certain amusing video games.  In practice, this interesting application can become part of a Wine substitute and give us a smile.

OpenRA - Classic strategy games, rebuilt for the modern era

  Today we decided to play with Westwood Studio's late nineties strategic titles: Red Alert, Tiberian Dawn and Dune 2000. All, without Wine or any other type of emulation, but using only what Linux offers . OpenRA is the answer to questions about how to do something like that. This carefully recreated Open Source engine is common to all three games. 
  OpenRA, in fact, allows Red Alert to work in a practically perfect way, just as Julius succeeds with Cesar III. The engine comes with a built-in wizard, which requires only a few mouse clicks to download the original assets of the chosen game. The titles are very similar, but the graphics are practically unique for each of them. With OpenRA, therefore, the plot remains in a secondary position and it does not matter if the war takes place in a parallel timeline where Nazi Germany does not exist.

  The game, in any case, always takes into consideration the classic confrontation between East and West. Regardless of the front you choose, the things to do are always the same: to build a powerful and productive military economy, extract gold, train soldiers and attack the enemy as soon as possible. In this regard, if you can launch an offensive before your opponent does, you will undoubtedly have the advantage. 
  OpenRA is a complete and highly developed game with intelligent robots, multiplayer modes and a rich set of missions, as well as fun tricks and characters. You will therefore appreciate the quality of OpenRA in a number of ways, including the well-designed interface where most actions can be taken from the keys. Finally, you'll enjoy a powerful network mode, ideal for the most ferocious battles with friends, as well as an exceptional game speed.
