Scratch Frog Jump

I have created this for code club members.

This is what we are going to make, when you click on the frog it will jump up, come back down and make a croak sound.

Notes

The code to reset the position isn't needed, unless you add other code that will move the frog left / right for example and you need to reset back to original position.

Warzone 2100 4.0

Just spotted this on the Techrights irc channel. Warzone 2100 4.0 has been released. I have not played this much, but when i have I feel that it is a really nice game. Gaming on Linux

On a related note, there was a really good talk on GPU architecture at Libreplanet back in March from Alyssa Rosenzweig called Does your GPU work with free graphics drivers? which may be worth catching up if you are interested ensuring all your hardware is freedom respecting, there are some excellent options out there now.
