GOG is breaking off from CD PROJEKT with 100% of it now owned by one of the original co-founders, Michał Kiciński, who is a co-founder of both GOG and CD PROJEKT.

With this move, GOG will continue operating independently but there's an agreement that's been signed between CD PROJEKT and GOG for future cooperation including releasing games on GOG from CD PROJEKT RED. The purchase of GOG came at a cost of PLN 90.7 million and Kiciński continues holding their shares in CD PROJEKT too as co-founder but now owns 100% of the shares in GOG.

So... Is this a good thing? Bad thing? Gut reaction says that probably not the greatest for GOG, being detached from a huge publisher like CD Projekt probably isn't great for a niche marketplace. In their faqs it states that GOG had a strong year financially but they would of course bill it that way. The question about why the new owner did so also just sounded disingenuous.

Interested to see where this goes from here. While I love gog and am a patron, their Linux support leaves a lot to be desired. The sole fact that cloud saves are such a pain to get working has led me to switch back to steam. I hope with these changes they can maybe get some support on Linux.

I noticed that AI posts tend to get reported so I figured maybe we just make them officially disallowed.

Agree/disagree? Post and tell us why!

There has been discussion about whether we need a new rule to more narrowly define what a "meme" is, in response to screenshots of other platforms, pictures of text, etc. being posted. Some good arguments for yes and no were being made in this thread over the weekend, and this isn't the first time people have brought it up, so I want to open the question up to the community.

My personal approach to moderating content is pretty "light touch", because I don't want to stifle people having fun (this is a meme page after all), and heavy-handed moderation reminds me of the worst parts of reddit. I think the role of a moderator is to clean up spam, keep the community on the intended topic, and intervene if people are being harassed, but for mostly everything else, that's what the up/downvote system is here for. So, the question becomes "Are screenshots of other platforms like Reddit, X, Bluesky 'off topic'? Or, do they count as memes?"

Here are some things to consider:

  1. Is a meme anything that gets repeated or shared? (this is the broad definition, but not necessarily the norm in how it's used)

  2. Does a meme require an attempt at humor?

  3. What about news? (What if a headline is funny?)

  4. Is an image required? Should a picture of text (not from another platform) be removed?

  5. Are we overthinking all of this?

Please let us know what you think. I'll keep this post pinned for the week, and if there's a general consensus, we can add a rule. Otherwise, we'll just rely on the community upvoting or downvoting what it wants to see and making case-by-case judgment calls as we get reports.

In addition to today's blog post calling out the need for others to takeover the This Week In Plasma series, KDE developer Nate Graham also published another blog post to highlight the successes of the Plasma desktop over 2025. In particular, the KDE Plasma Wayland transition "nears completion" as it works to become Wayland-only in early 2027.

Headlining the KDE highlights for 2025 by Nate Graham was the work on the Wayland transition. This year saw Wayland work around HDR / color management, P010 video color support, better drawing tablets, improved accessibility, overlay planes, RandR emulation, screen mirroring, support for custom modes, pre-authorization for portal-based permissions, clipboard and USB portals, and support for a variety of newer Wayland protocols. Wayland's xdg-toplevel-tag, color-representation, fio, xx_pip, and other protocols were implemented this year

Hello!

I used to journal a bit here and there. I think the longest I managed to do it consistently was January '22 until mid '23.

I want to give it another try and see how it goes this time. As a little motivation boost I got myself a fountain pen. First time I got one since back in school; like 20 years ago when I switched to ballpoint. And used to have ones from LAMY back then and after 2 days of resarch I got the LAMY AL-star. I went to the store to test and it took me 30 minutes to decide on the colour. So I totally understand why people own many pens very fast :D
