Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Does anyone have experience with non-DeX Android Desktop offerings?
Considering the community spends more time tweaking Xiaomi and Google mobile devices, I would love for them to make some flagship tablets on the market. Dex is good and all, quite handy considering the size (for a tablet w included keyboard vs a laptop), but that is about all I can say about samsung in my recent years experience. XDA has been overclocking the original sd865 to match or overpower sd888 powered phones, both performance-wise and thermally. There is even a uefi bootloader for some sd845 phones (mostly xiaomi). The same goes for ubuntu touch (google and xiaomi)
- So i found out that is possible to play GTA 4 on Android

Ask HN: How can we replace iOS on an iPad 2 with Android or any Linux OS?
You may want to look into things like: https://projectsandcastle.org/status. Like the other commenter said, iOS is locked down. If you want a Linux tablet, look at the JingPad, or just any old Android tablet.
There is a chance you could go through _lots_ of work to get some _Android_ device to work on raw Linux with the edk2-sdm845 UEFI firmware (https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-sdm845) that chainloads from the Android bootloader (ABL).

Odin Base Windows 11 Potential?
This isn't true at all, Windows for Odin is an active part of the renegade project and a dev is working on compatability so we know exactly what is currently working and what isn't: https://renegade-project.org/#/en/windows/state-frame.html https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-sdm845
- Why don’t Rockstar release GTA 4 on mobile?

Odin can likely run before 2012 pc games easily, it has SD845 and theres a open source project called edk2 porting Windows on ARM sd 845, so you can run Windows 10 on any android device with SD845 and ODIN having active cooling can make the job done. Watch my previous post to if you dont get it.
this is done by an Open source project, if Qualcomm were to give proper drivers then the performance would be much much better

Reverse-Engineering the Mali G78
figuring out how to get a kernel & normal environment booting seems to be one of the biggest challenges.
there is a TianoCore EDK2 porting effort underway that seems to have support on a good number of phones. who knows what works & doesn't once you are able to start running your own mainline kernel, but way cool to see over a dozen phones on this list!

PC gaming can finally be done on Android now. (natively)
This is possible due to this project
- Edk2-Sdm845: EDK2 UEFI Firmware for Snapdragon 845
- you can run a full windows system on theses supported phones now (links/alpha)

The File Filesystem
FFS predates FreeBSD and is in some capacity supported by all 3 major BSDs. I'm fairly confident that Linux actually supports it through the ufs driver ( https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/fs/ufs ); whether the use of different names in different places makes it better or worse is an exercise for the reader.

Linus Torvalds adds arbitrary tabs to kernel code
These are a bit easier to see what's going on:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e...
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e61...
Unfortunately Github doesn't have a way to render symbols for whitespace, but you can tell by selecting the spaces that the previous version had leading tabs. Linus changed it so that the tokens `default` and the number e.g. `12` are also separated by a tab. This is tricky, because the token "default" is seven characters, it will always give this added tab a width of 1 char which makes it always layout the same as if it were a space no matter if you use tab widths of 1, 2, 4, or 8.

PfSense Software Embraces Change: A Strategic Migration to the Linux Kernel
There was also a Gentoo effort to run atop FreeBSD[0]. The challenge of course is that afaik none of the BSD kernel ABIs are considered stable. The stable interface is the BSD libc. That said, with binfmt_misc, I don't see a reason you couldn't just run (at least some) FreeBSD binaries on Linux with a thin syscall translation layer (rather something like qemu-system) and then your layer hooked via binfmt_misc. I'm not aware of anyone who has done this for FreeBSD, but prior efforts existed as alternate binfmts for SysVr4/5 ELF binaries[2]. Either way would take some elbow grease, but you *might* even be able just reuse binfmt_elf and just have a new interpreter for FreeBSD elf.

Improvements to static analysis in GCC 14
> The original less-than check was deemed incorrect
It was only deemed incorrect because of an information leak. Not because it's a valid use-case for user space to copy smaller portions of *hwrpb into user space. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/21c5977a836e399fc71...

TinyMCE (also) moving from MIT to GPL
Correct. And the combined work needs to carry the MIT license text and copyright attributions for the MIT software authors. With binary distribution it must also be overt, not hidden in some source code drop, but directly accompanying the binary.
Many people who talk about relicensing never credit the MIT developers or distribute the MIT license text. "Because it's GPL now."
I don't think that you believe that, but many developers do.
Some don't see the need for source code scans for Open Source compliance, because the license.txt says GPL, so it's GPL. Prime example is the Linux kernel. There is code under different licenses in there, but people don't even read https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/COPYING till the end ("In addition, other licenses may also apply.") and conclude it's simply GPL 2 and nothing else.
Also be aware that sublicensing is not the same as relicensing.

He notoriously hates GNU Emacs, yes.

The Linux Kernel Prepares for Rust 1.77 Upgrade
So If we would only count code and not comments, it is only 9489 LoC Rust. Which would be about 0.03% and if we take all lines and not only LoC it would be around 0.05%
