You think you've seen it all and then there's a Wayland Compositor inside Minecraft on Linux (www.gamingonlinux.com)

A developer going by "EVVIE" managed to combine the worlds of Linux and Minecraft, to enable you to pull up all sorts of Linux desktop windows directly inside Minecraft. Sure does look cool, a bit like running a desktop inside a VR headset like the draft code for the full VR mode for KDE Plasma written about here before on GamingOnLinux.

I...I really kind of want this now. Like an honest to bob, turn the comp on and load in to MC running this. I want to walk to browser icon. I want to build a house besides my file explorer. To have a "physical" 3d location for everything in the world and being able to visit your photos, or fly by your games library. Super cool!

That actually sounds amazing. I want that so much.
