Links of the Day

I collect cool, interesting links spread all over the web and share them here in daily posts. Hope you enjoy! More of them in the archive.

The new Ubuntu folder icons, Omg! Ubuntu. The changes will come in Ubuntu 26.04, scheduled for release in April. In addition to the folder icons (I think they’re prettier!), the LibreOffice and Calculator icons have also been updated.

Eye of the Match. It’s fascinating how every activity gets turned into a video game. In this game, still in development, you take on the role of the virtual assistant referee (VAR) in a football game.

CAPTCHA Hell. In this other even more absurd game, the challenge is to solve CAPTCHAs — those puzzles that many websites impose on you to prove you’re human (or a competent robot). Is it actually fun?

Super Tux. I didn’t know there was another game (this one, a platformer) featuring Tux, the Linux mascot. The new version (0.7) includes a level editor. Free, FOSS, for Android (*.apk), Linux, macOS, and Android.
