Проект Phoenix развивает современный X-сервер, написанный на языке Zig

В рамках проекта Phoenix предпринята попытка создания с нуля нового X-сервера, не использующего наработки X.org Server и нацеленного на создание современной альтернативы, расширяющей протокол X11 и предоставляющей возможности для совместимости с Wayland. На текущем этапе развития Phoenix пока не готов к повседневному использованию, но уже позволяет организовать работу с простыми приложениями, использующими для вывода графики GLX, EGL или Vulkan, при вложенном запуске Phoenix поверх существующего X-сервера. Код написан на языке Zig и распространяется под лицензией GPLv3.

Нашлась единственная уцелевшая копия ОС Unix v4

В школе вычислительной техники при Университете Юты (США) нашли и восстановили магнитную ленту, на которой оказалась единственная из известных копий операционной системы Unix v4 — первой, чьё ядро, драйверы и основные утилиты были написаны на новомодном в те времена языке C.
Восстановленные данные заняли всего 40 Мбайт — они доступны для скачивания вместе с инструкцией по запуску ОС. Unix v4 работал на продвинутом по тем временам мини-компьютере DEC PDP-11, который эмулировали при помощи SimH. На момент выпуска система оставалась экспериментальным проектом.
Анонс

Turntable Adds Collapsible Player Controls, End of Year Recap

A new version of Turntable, the standalone music scrobbling tool and desktop ‘now playing’ controls for Linux, is out with a couple of notable new features. Given the app is a conduit for relaying your listening habits, this update adds “wrapped year-in-review” style recap of your hither logged listening habits. Well, kinda. Turntable’s developer, Evan Paterakis, says the year-end recap feature is an ‘experiment’ so far from perfect. This is because the app doesn’t track your listening habits itself, merely relays it to your preferred service. Since “different services provide different levels of information and assets and almost none provide […]
