Can Amazon’s uneven gaming track record put the “service” in “game as a service?”

After eight years of existence, you might expect Amazon Game Studios to have a wealth of game launches under its belt—especially after hiring famed game-industry veterans to lead some of its teams. But the Amazon Game Studios story has mostly been about delays, cancellations, staff turnover, and lukewarm launches.
Hence, the publisher's first major free-to-play shooter, Crucible, launches tomorrow, May 20, on Windows PCs (Steam) without much of a neatly laid red carpet. After going hands-on with the game in a preview session, I'm honestly not inspired to shake that up or raise anyone's expectations.
Instead, I'm using Crucible's launch as an opportunity to look back at the history of Amazon Game Studios. This division could have been an industry juggernaut in terms of leveraging Amazon's cash reserves and tech-industry dominance. Instead, it has limped to its current May 2020 state. What has it made? What has it canceled? And what's up with Crucible?

We took Red Hat’s bleeding-edge desktop distribution for an extended spin.

Today's Linux distro review is one I've been wanting to do for quite some time—Fedora Workstation. Fedora is one of the heavyweight desktop distros of the Linux world, with a vibrant community and a strong presence at every open source convention I've ever attended. (Remember physically attending events? Ars remembers.)
I never felt particularly drawn to Fedora myself, because it's a bleeding-edge distro—one targeted to the very newest software, possibly at the expense of stability. That's not what I personally want in an operating system—I fix broken things professionally; I'd prefer not to fix them personally any more than I have to.
But as one of the few distros using the next-generation Wayland display server by default, Fedora made me very curious indeed. Although the screenshots taken throughout this review are of virtual machines, my first installation of Fedora Workstation (ever!) was bare metal, on the HP Dragonfly Elite G1.
