Minimalism “UNIX is simple and coherent…” - Dennis Ritchie “GNU’s Not UNIX” - Richard Stallman stal/IX is not UNIX or Linux in the usual sense of these terms. stal/IX is an attempt to rethink some fundamentals without touching the Linux API and ABI.

This Pop-Out Phone Controller Could Reinvent How We Think of Mobile Gaming

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-11-16 15:00:17

Today’s retro recreations are so good at replicating the Game Boy’s look, feel, and portability. The problem is, my pockets are already occupied with my mobile supercomputer that contains my life behind a 6.3-inch pane of glass. If my phone has a powerful processor and excellent AMOLED display, why can’t it also become my gaming device when I’m on the go?

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-11-15 23:00:00

There’s plenty of uncertainty to go around this year, including a global trade war, shifting policy priorities, and an economy that’s starting to stumble. Breakthrough Energy, a climate tech organization founded by Bill Gates, has also been shifting in response. The group always placed long bets, though it appears to be reappraising some of them. Its policy team was scrapped in March, for example, and it didn’t continue funding a publication that covered the climate tech world. Still, its inves
