- https://bahn.expert -- The DB Navigator tool as it should be, simple design but amazing functionality for actually current information (routing/station departures)
- https://strecken-info.de/ -- 'internal' tool between EIU and EVU, shows current issues along tracks which are often not shown on official apps, esp. w/ start/end-times if they are known (construction/obstructions/...)
- https://trassenfinder.de -- made for booking 'tracks' in stations but has some nice additional station/track information
- ChimeraLinux: https://chimera-linux.org/
A kind of hybrid BSD (userland) and Linux (kernel) distro, trying out new things. Usesapk
, runs on a wide variety (x64, arm, riscv, rpi, ..) of arches, usesdinit
as service manager. - VoidLinux: https://voidlinux.org/
Rolling but stable, tries to be low-maintenance (once set up) and unix-like, i.e. simple and file-based; nice custom pkg manager (xbps) and AUR-like 'template' system to build wide variety of software - Artix: https://artixlinux.org/
Arch without systemd is its primary claim to fame, provides a variety of service managers (dinit
,s6
,runit
,openrc
) - EasyOS: https://easyos.org/
taking puppy linux as a spirit animal and packaging it for usb-stick use. - ChimeraOS: https://chimeraos.org/
purely gaming focused and made to be installed on handheld consoles. Install, boot into Steam and start playing is the idea. - KISSLinux: http://kisscommunity.org/ | https://kisslinux.github.io/
focusing on providing a simple base to build off of, a nicekiss
package management, sane packaged software (meta-distro) - QubesOS: https://www.qubes-os.org/
run everything in a virtual environment (hypervisors) -- each application, whole other OSes, USB devices, networking and even system management and the display manager - SnowflakeOS: https://snowflakeos.org/
Early development version atm but aims to be NixOS with easier installation, sane gov structure and grokkable documentation afaik
"BadWolf is a minimalist and privacy-oriented WebKitGTK+ browser.
Privacy-oriented
No browser-level tracking, multiple ephemeral isolated sessions per new unrelated tabs, JavaScript off by default
Minimalist
Small codebase (~1 500 LoC), reuses existing components when available or makes them available
Customizable
WebKitGTK native extensions, Interface customizable through CSS
Powerful & Usable
Stable User-Interface; The common shortcuts are available, no vi-modal edition or single-key shortcuts are used
No annoyances
Dialogs are only used when required (save file, print, …), javascript popups open in a background tab"
Seems surprisingly mature for its young (4ish years?) age.
Large list of resources for accomplishing various degrees of functional programming in python.
Books, tutorials, talks, libraries.
Tell the program to favor performance or powersaving and it will do all the CPU auto scaling for you, depending on usage, temperature, load, battery.
Simple, nice and useful for laptops (or desktops/servers depending on you energy bill ;)
Ananicy rewritten in C++ for much lower CPU and memory usage.
Auto-nices your linux processes depending on custom rules. Can use all the community-provided default rules from Ananicy (since it's drop-in, just faster and less memory-hungry).
IoT and Embedded System Simulator: ESP32, STM32, Arduino, Raspberry Pi Pico, displays, sensors, motors and WiFi simulation.
Program your code, don't brick your device and test out whatever in the simulator before 'deploying' to the actual ESP32, Arduino, etc.
Mirror your screen output (for projector work, presentations and similar) in wayland.
Basically just creates a window into which whatever output you select will be copied.
Nice, amazingly easy and useful cli software!
Use it like wl-mirror DP-5
(or whatever output).
To find out your current output names, you can use e.g. wlopm
