Infestation: Origins just crawled out of Early Access and onto full release today—and yes, this is the co-op horror game that puts a grotesque, Steamboat Willie–era Mickey Mouse in your crosshairs.
When it first appeared back in November 2024, it caught headlines because Disney’s grip on Steamboat Willie slipped into the public domain that very week.
Nightmare Forge Games wasted no time dropping their exterminator sim, where the infestations aren’t bed bugs or rats but twisted, public-domain mascots. Cue a disclaimer on the Steam page reminding you that this isn’t endorsed by Disney or anyone else—and also cue Disney’s lawyers grinding their teeth.
Gameplay is simple in premise but nasty in execution. You’re an exterminator called in to handle infestations, which means navigating episodic missions, flipping breakers, choking off spreading corruption, and ultimately surviving boss encounters.
It’s built around online four-player co-op with proximity and global voice chat, though you can run it solo if you’d rather not herd randoms. Private lobbies are supported.
Visually? Perfectly cromulent. Nothing AAA, but the lighting and grime do their job. Minimum specs are modest—GTX 1050, 8 GB RAM—but crank it up and DLSS support smooths things out on mid-range rigs. Engine is Unity.
Windows-only by default, but Steam Deck users report it “runs good” despite janky controller menus, which implies it’s Linux-friendly via Proton.
Reception so far: “Mostly Positive” on Steam, hovering around 78%. Caveat emptor—most reviews are from the Early Access period. That said, Nightmare Forge seems to have added new polish and content for 1.0, including a reworked first episode now dubbed Willie’s Rage.
The price is a ridiculous C$6.29 at launch with a discount until September 19. And for a co-op horror romp starring the world’s most famous rodent in flames, it feels like a bargain.
Disney may not approve—but it doesn’t matter. Mickey’s ours now.
By subverting the voluntary nature of open standards, Apple has defanged them as tools that users might use against the totalising power of native apps in their digital lives.
The upcoming KDE Plasma 6.5 has undergone many changes, such as the setup wizard, the favorites to the clipboard manager, and quick settings toggle. Now, we have another page that is being on the way to the stable KDE Plasma 6.5 release ahead of the Akademy event, called “App Permissions.” As you can see, the “Flatpak Permissions” page, which only showed permissions for all Flatpak applications installed in your system, has now been expanded to cover a more broad range of applications other than the Flatpak ones. To do this, the page has been renamed to “App Permissions.”
It not only allows you to configure permissions for each app separately, but it also allows you to configure settings related to the XDG portal system, such as taking screenshots of an application. Alongside this, there is a brand new permission that allows apps that use the XDG portal to set lock and home screen wallpapers.
You can learn more about this week’s changes here.
This week, the KDE team has officially pushed the initial system setup wizard to the upcoming KDE Plasma 6.5 environment. This ensures that the Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS) principle is applied when setting up the KDE desktop for the first time.
This was inspired by the idea that the introductory window would show up when you first start up KDE Plasma. However, the Welcome Center doesn’t do a job related to user accounts: it’s about setting up a user account for you! So, to solve this problem, the setup wizard will start when you start KDE for the first time, especially on OEM installations.
From now on, when you start your computer that has KDE installed for the first time, you’ll be greeted with this screen: The same official blog article that will be linked below shows you another part of the setup wizard, which, along with the username creation, is the keyboard layout and the language selection. To learn more about the setup wizard, as well as many improvements that landed to this version of KDE Plasma, click on the below button.
Welcome to a new issue of This Week in Plasma!
Every week we cover the highlights of what’s happening in the world of KDE Plasma and its associated apps like Discover, System Monitor, and more.

The "unlisted" or "quiet public" post visibility setting on Mastodon is often misunderstood.
An unlisted post DOES NOT show up in search results, trends, hashtag follows or the Local/Federated timelines.
An unlisted post DOES show up in the Home timelines of your followers, including when you make a thread with replies.
If you want to avoid your own long threads cluttering up followers' Home timelines, use a Fediverse server or platform that supports very high character limits.
Yes, and it would still be great to see a #Mastodon web and mobile app feature to collapse series of consecutive self-replies exceeding two to the first and last (in order) with a bar in between showing “View n more replies in thread,” clicking/tapping which opens the first post in the series.
Not everyone someone follows is going to change instances, so it would be better to have an option to follow someone who posts long threads without cluttering one’s feed.
I'm still s little confused. Does that mean when I reply to a comment like I'm doing now, using the unlisted option, it will still show up on my followers feeds?
@mottenfest I see replies from people I follow to people I do not constantly when they are unlisted, I also see unlisted posts with hashtags I follow from people I don't.
@dhamlinmusic I used to have that happen on twitter, and it annoyed the heck out of me. 💀 There was an option to switch it off though, I wonder if it's the same here?
@mottenfest Ok so on the hashtag thing I thought your thing above said you would only see public posts with those tags from people you do not follow, if that's incorrect I may have misread the part. I have several replies in my home right now to people I do not follow and I cannot find any tags I follow in either the thread or on the users profile. I also see followers only replies from people I follow to people I do not and I cannot view chunks of replies in those threads.
p.s. If you reply in either Public or Unlisted, it will only show up in your followers' timelines if they follow you AND the person you're replying to.
They will also see your threads where you reply to yourself.
I had a random thought - "what would it take to support arbitrary old screensavers in Plasma 6 again?" 🤔 So here's xscreensaver safely rendered as a background for Plasma screen locker, working on both Wayland and X11 sessions. Turned out so much simpler than I expected 😁 Just some 70 lines of pure QML and a tiny glue to launch the process.
I don't really understand what this is, but here's where I got stuck last time I tried to solve this: jwz.org/b/ykrj So if you have a portable solution, I'd love to hear it.
Welp, I got crickets in answer to my question, "How do I find the wl_surface backing an Xwayland X11 Window?" and that does not bode well for XScreenSaver ever being able to lock your screen on Wayland.
@jwz This is Plasma specific - it's effectively making kscreenlocker outsource its background rendering to another process, which doesn't even have to be aware that it's being used as a screensaver (or a wallpaper, it's the same there). That said, there's no reason other DEs couldn't handle it the same way. A ext-session-lock-v1 locker could also become a simple compositor like this and just pass the buffer forward.
@jwz This one is a simple nested compositor indeed, as that's what was easy to do with the available ready-made building blocks 😀 But technically it doesn't even have to be a "compositor" at all to do this. Wayland itself is a buffer-passing protocol with some optional extras on top after all, so it could pass the client's wl_buffer straight to the server.
How it works? It's a Plasma wallpaper plugin which is an extremely simple QtWayland compositor that only handles a single fullscreen window and draws it - so any Wayland window can be drawn as a background. This window can of course also belong to Xwayland 😄
This means we can go beyond xscreensaver. How about... Wine? 😁
And here it is! Welcome back as my screensaver, Asciiquarium 😊
I could have reimplemented it in Qt, as it was done back in the KDE 3/4 days... or I could just run the original thing in a Konsole window and call it a day 😁
I see a lot in the Papers about this 20th or Child Labor Amendment, and I have been asked how I stand on that. If Congress or the States would just pass one law, as follows, they wouldn’t need any Amendment: “EVERY CHILD, REGARDLESS OF AGE, SHALL RECEIVE THE SAME WAGE AS A GROWN PERSON.” That will stop your child labor.

RFK Jr. says polio ended because of the DDT ban. Wrong. 📉 Cases crashed after the 1955 Salk vaccine. 💊 Sabin oral vaccine in 1961 finished the job. 🚫 DDT ban came in 1972—long after polio was gone.

"Pause to enable re-skilling" is a politician lie that drives me nuts because it sounds so reasonable.
But no one is going to build infrastructure or train skills for a tech that's paused. Slow down the timeline, lower the targets.... ug fine if you must. But don't pretend that you think that supply will precede demand.

Only if your followers are following you AND the person you're replying to.
This is the same behaviour as public visibility.

Not on vanilla Mastodon, but there are alternative Mastodon versions where you can do this.
