Boxy SVG - tool for editing SVG files.

This online tool for drawing and working with SVG file format comes with this intro:

Boxy SVG project goal is to create the best tool for editing SVG files. For beginners as well as for professional web designers and web developers. On any device and operating system. 
 ... 
 Boxy SVG is built around the idea that user interfaces should get out of the way. There is no crowded workspace with overlapping dialogs or dozens of opened palettes and toolbars. Your illustration takes the center stage. Whether it's the editing of shapes or adjustment of gradient fills, most of the action is taking place directly on the canvas. Fine control over the changes is available in panels that you can expand and then collapse with a single click or keypress. Many features are accessible with keyboard shortcuts that you can customize to your liking. This is especially useful if you are coming with a lot of muscle memory from years of using other vector graphics editors.
The tool comes with a trial for 15 days or you can subscribe with these two options: 9.99 USD/ year or 9.99 USD/month register with your account.
On the official webpage, the Linux version is Free.
I install it easily on my Fedora 33 distro Linux with the snap tool:
[mythcat@desk ~]$ snap search boxy
Name      Version  Publisher    Notes  Summary
boxy-svg  3.46.0   jarek-foksa  -      Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) editor
boxy-svg 3.46.0 from Jarosław Foksa (jarek-foksa) installed
...
I tested all features of this tool and, is very good for an SVG tool.
You can see many tutorials with this online tool from the official youtube channel.
In the next video you can see one video tutorial with the SVG library of this online tool:

Linux Games: The Pirate: Caribbean Hunt.

This weekend I played a bit with a steam game installed on the Fedora distribution. I have a pretty weak hardware of only 10 Gb Ram and an NVIDIA Corporation GT218 video card [GeForce 210] (rev a2).
The game is called The Pirate: Caribbean Hunt and you can find it here, see intro:
Hail to the Captain! Sail into the heart of the Caribbean in the Age of Piracy - the time of black flags and white skulls, blue waves and golden opportunities. Hoist the Jolly Roger and grab the steering wheel to sail through battles and raids, ransoms and treasures, to become the Crimson King.
I played for almost 7 hours and I didn't find any irregularities in the fluidity of the game. It is a very interesting game for both single player and multi player.
I found a video on the internet that shows that some users have found a way to navigate the world, see:

Sunflow rendering on Fedora 13

How to install Sunflow ?
It's pretty simple just download the zip archive from here.
Unzip and edit the sh script sunflow.sh
from the sunflow folder.
By default the script is:

#/bin/sh

mem=1G

java -Xmx$mem -server -jar sunflow.jar $*

If we run this script will have this error :
$ sh sunflow.sh 
Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx1G

Could not create the Java virtual machine.

The solution is:
$ whereis java
java: /usr/bin/java ...

Now change the script :
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/java -Xmx1024M -server -jar sunflow.jar $*

And run it ...
$ sh sunflow.sh 

The result is :

Fedora 14 - next wallpaper concept.

The new concept of wallpaper on which I worked.
I used Blender 3D. Rendering time was short, less than 2 min.
This is because I used some tricks.
It seems more appropriate for a wallpaper.
