AppGrid 1.8.0

Опубликован выпуск AppGrid 1.8.0 — стороннего лаунчера приложений для KDE Plasma 6, выполненного в виде сетки приложений и позиционируемого как альтернатива стандартным меню Kickoff и Kicker. Релиз размещён на GitHub 25 мая 2026 года; в описании проекта указано, что AppGrid распространяется под лицензией GPL-2.0-or-later.
AppGrid поставляется в двух вариантах плазмоида: как отдельное центрированное всплывающее окно и как нативное всплывающее меню панели Plasma. Оба варианта используют общую сетку приложений, поиск, категории и настройки. Для установки разработчик указывает официальные каналы: AUR для Arch Linux и производных, PPA для Ubuntu 25.10+, Copr для Fedora, универсальный tarball для установки в ~/.local/ на неизменяемых системах, а также Nix/NixOS Flake.
Разработчик называет AppGrid 1.8.0 крупнейшим обновлением с момента появления проекта. В релизе переработана система избранного, расширено перетаскивание приложений, улучшено ранжирование поиска, добавлена более тесная интеграция с механизмами KDE Plasma и проведена оптимизация производительности.

Raspberry Pi 6 won’t arrive before 2028 – and is skipping an NPU

The Raspberry Pi 6 is unlikely to be released until 2028 and it won’t feature an onboard NPU for AI compute when it arrives – two details shared by the company’s engineers in Reddit last week. Three Raspberry Pi engineers held an AMA (ask me anything) session on Reddit on 21 May, 2026. During it they provided some insight into their plans for the Pi 6 and when we can expect it to hit the market. Based on past launch dates, the gap between major Pi models (Raspberry Pi 2, 3, 4 and 5) is around 3-4 years. The Raspberry Pi 5 […]

Проект Pavona развивает дистрибутив открытых аппаратных компонентов для создания чипов

Консорциум GlobalPlatform анонсировал проект Pavona, развивающий открытый дистрибутив аппаратных компонентов, из которых можно компоновать готовые к производству защищённые чипы на ядрах с микроархитектурой RISC-V. Дистрибутив предоставляет модульную библиотеку IP-блоков и эталонные реализации чипов, готовые к сертификации и проверенные на пригодность к производству (tapeout-proven). Pavona можно рассматривать как адаптацию идеи распространения дистрибутивов ПО к аппаратному обеспечению, позволяющую собирать собственные чипы для различных областей применения, от датацентров, AI-ускорителей и специализированных контроллеров до встраиваемых систем с ограниченными ресурсами и устройств интернета вещей (IoT). Наработки проекта распространяются под лицензией Apache 2.0.
