“Fast open-source firmware for the PineTime smartwatch with many features, written in modern C++.”

Limiting to those I have used daily and treated as Linux (used the terminal for example) probably Maemo. I used to carry my Nokia Internet Tablet 770, and then my N800 everywhere with me.

Maemo is also an ancestor of both Tizen and Sailfish OS

Yeah, This case especially since it includes XWayland

I also read the announcement (and FAQ, and other pages) but was still hoping someone would comment on what it is exactly.

(I did guess along the right lines at least, but wasn’t really sure)

I don’t see evidence in the article that it even is ‘their software’ being discussed here - just a framework they are suggesting for compositors to have new functionality (regardless of GPU brands).

It even says “They aren’t going into this alone but at this year’s DisplayNext Hackfest it was also backed up by AMD for going a similar route.”

Any time I see an article about someone doing things with Redstone circuits, I think about that comic.

This was my first exposure to Linux - one of the PCs in high school had it installed. (I had read about Linux before then, but not had a chance to try it)

It had a little foam Tux in the box, and I got to keep it:

This book also basically predicted cryptocurrency (but not the blockchain stuff)

Software and hardware support definitely counts.

I would also guess that probably a lot of Microsoft enterprise stuff like active directory group policies likely aren’t supported well, but I don’t have enough knowledge to back that up.

I want to use GNOME as what it does works great, but it lacks a whole list of features I use.

Watch the list actually get longer over time.

Are the notifications actionable? (Snoozing alarms, canned replies to messages, etc)

I couldn’t find that important detail on the website easily.

What is it? Even the article does not say

I think I now know where I’ll order my next computer from.

Not that it affects me, but is there already a ksetwacom planned?

It does feel that way, but…

“Linux 4.20 was released on Sun, 23 Dec 2018”

About 5.5 years.

So basically an office suite? Like Google Docs or MS Office?

As far as Windows goes, 95 was actually version 4.00.950 for the first version.

98 was 4.1, 2000 was 5.0, XP 5.1, Vista 6.0, 7 was 6.1, 8 was 6.2, 8.1 = 6.3

Then they jumped to 10 in both the name and internal version.

Windows 11 is still 10.0.x though.
