Red Hat Linux in 1998 (2009)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-21 09:08:42

GNOME and Red Hat Linux Eleven Years Ago By Oscar Laycock Four years ago, I switched on an old PC and found a seven year old (at that time) copy of Linux on it. I still use parts of the 1998 Red Hat Linux, today. Red Hat Linux in 1998 My copy of Red Hat Linux is 5.1, codenamed "Manhattan". It was released on May 22, 1998. The first Red Hat Linux 1.0 was released on November 3, 1994. Finally, Red Hat Linux merged with Fedora on 22 September 2003, when Red Hat started Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Edi Gathegi Hopes Being Mr. Terrific Redeems His Short ‘X-Men’ Role

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-21 07:30:30

There’s a lot of superpowered characters in Superman, and one of the most notable is Michael Holt, aka Mr. Terrific. It isn’t just that this is his first time on the big screen, it’s also the matter of who’s playing him: Edi Gathegi, who many likely remember as Darwin from X-Men: First Class, aka the mutant who died despite having the power to evolve and adapt to anything. Sooner or later, conversations about First Class remind you how dumb his death was, and Gathegi seems to agree. Talking to

This AI Theory Is Sweeping the Internet. Here's What You Need to Know

This wild theory about the Internet is circulating again, and it all has to do with Shrimp Jesus. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, it’s the infamous AI-generated Facebook image of Shrimp Jesus and other variations floating around the internet. That image first surfaced in March 2024 and appeared to be a meme at first glance. However, Shrimp Jesus was the jumping-off point for Facebook AI art slop.

Cozy Horror Game Grave Seasons Is Stardew Valley Plagued by a Serial Killer

At Summer Game Fest, I tried a game that was bold enough to ask: Why doesn't Stardew Valley have more murder? Grave Seasons, due out next year, is a cozy farming sim with a morbid edge: It's about all the friends (and romantic partners) you make along the bloody way to stopping a serial killer. A little bit into the short demo of Grave Seasons, I took to the fields to clean up the run-down farm I'd broken into and decided to adopt, only to find a severed hand.

How to build the best keyboard in the world

The term “endgame,” among keyboard enthusiasts, is sort of a running gag. Endgame is when you finally dial in your perfect layout, case, features, switches, and keycaps, so you can stop noodling around with parts and get on with whatever it is you actually use the keyboard for — work, presumably. Then a few months later you see something shiny and start over. In the search for endgame, most of us have to compromise somewhere — usually time or money.

Norbauer Seneca review: a $3,600 luxury keyboard for the keyboard obsessed

I can tell wine from vinegar if you show me the bottle. I am just a little bit obsessed with keyboards, though.
