А что происходит на противоположном фронте?
Вы, вероятно, слышали, что 2026 год называют годом Linux на десктопе (в каких-то узких кругах - годом гейминга на Linux). Всё потому, что экосистема Linux постепенно становится более дружелюбной для обычных десктоп-юзеров (в том числе привыкших к Windows), и не только!
▫️ всё чаще появляются Linux дистрибутивы визуально похожиена Windows (или даже лучше), и множество видео с советами какой дистрибутив попробовать новичкам.
▫️ обновления ядра и любых пакетов в экосистеме Linux всегда привносят оптимизацию и удобство и поддержку свежего железа (привет винде с её обратной тенденцией). Например грядущая версия 7.0, опять с множеством приятных мелочей.
▫️ после 10 лет с последего релиза версии 5 окружение KDE Plasma получила мажорный апдейт версии 6 и активно развивается (уже доросла до 6.5). GNOME тоже не спит и готовит версию 50.
▫️ в Wine добавили патч позволяющий устанавливать продукты Adobe на Linux. Для кого-то это был последний рубеж?😏
▫️ Proton активно развивается, да так, что через эту прослойку игры работают даже быстрей чем нативно на винде.
▫️ с каждым релизом Wine и Proton поддерживается всё больше игр, что можно отслеживать на ProtonDB, и даже случаются бусты производительности.
▫️ Я сам на днях на виндобук поставил ChacyOS после чего игры, которые тянули гдето в 5-10 FPS, стали играбельными! Подтверждено личным опытом! Кстати, есть несколько дистрибутивов заточенные именно под игры.
▫️ Valve выпускают новую пачку железок которые (предположительно) порвут рынок гейминга (как и в прошлый раз) и (определнно точно) работают на Linux. Именно Valve вливает ресурсы в Linux в целом и в Proton в частности.
▫️ Госсектор разных стран давно уже мигрирует на opensource, так как нет доверия системе которая может одномоментно неконтролируемо массово рухнуть или быть удаленно заблокированной (в том числе по политическим причинам).
И ниже небольшой опрос - какая у вас операционка основная?
Ни к чему не призываю, ничего не советую! Просто подмечаю тенденцию и хочется узнать мнения из первых рук 😉
Знаю, что Linux тоже не идеален, знаю что каждой задаче - свой инструмент. Но это не тема поста, так что можно без холиваров)

Sheep can feel emotions like fear, anger, boredom, and happiness. They evaluate their surroundings using checks like suddenness, familiarity, predictability, and control, similar to humans. Sudden events can cause fear, while predictable environments may lead to boredom.

🇳🇴 NORWAY PHASES OUT UNNATURALLY FAST-GROWING “FRANKEN-CHICKENS”
Norway has announced a gradual phase-out of so-called “franken-chickens” by 2027.
Norway, where about 70 million chickens are raised annually for food production, has become the first country to commit to raising 100% of its poultry under conditions that ensure high animal welfare standards. Animal rights advocates have welcomed the decision, calling it a “historic moment.”
“Franken-chickens,” often referred to in Norway as “turbo-chickens,” are fast-growing birds bred through selective breeding to reach maximum weight in the shortest possible time. Due to rapid growth and extreme size, these chickens suffer from numerous health problems, and most animal welfare organizations strongly condemn this practice.
According to Humane World for Animals, franken-chickens reach their “slaughter weight” in just six weeks, leading to severe strain on their bones, muscles, and ligaments. Their bodies often begin to break down as they grow, and many birds lose the ability to move. Humane League UK describes their lives as “extremely short and painful.”
The animal protection coalition Anima International has been campaigning for five years to eliminate fast-growing chicken breeds in Norway. Several animal welfare groups are also calling for similar measures in the United Kingdom.
Experts emphasize that this decision marks a significant step forward in improving animal welfare.

Our FULL manifesto can be found here: https://www.forbritain.uk/manifesto/
The UK government has unveiled an unprecedented plan to gradually eliminate animal testing in medical and pharmaceutical research.
The first phase will begin at the end of 2026 and will eliminate tests on mice used to develop treatments for skin and eye irritations.
Additionally, the country has committed to reducing the use of dogs and primates in laboratories by 35% by 2030, fulfilling an election promise made by the Labour Party.
Backed by £60 million, the strategy aims to promote ethical and technologically advanced alternatives that replace animal models without compromising the safety of vaccines, medicines, or pesticides.
Although animal experiments peaked in 2015 — with over 4 million animals used — advances in alternative methods had already helped reduce that number.
However, progress has stalled in recent years, so this new initiative seeks to accelerate the full replacement of animals.
Science Secretary Patrick Vallance stated, “Nobody wants to witness animal suffering,” and the new roadmap will allow governments, companies, scientists, and animal welfare organizations to collaborate on faster and more effective solutions.
Part of the investment will go to a specialized center that will integrate technology, data, and expertise to accelerate the transition to animal-free science.
🐾 Do you think Uzbekistan should implement a similar plan to reduce and replace animal testing? 🇺🇿💭
