Founder and CEO of System76. Maker of Linux computers, COSMIC DE and Pop!_OS.
- Thelio Massive build in-process. It earns its name… dual Xeon, quad GPUs, 1.5 TB of memory and up to 72 TB of storage.
- Thelio Mega featuring new AMD Threadripper Pro CPUs is nearly production ready. Coming soon!
- We're running a COSMIC testing sprint in the lab this week. Pulled out this old 2009 System76 Gazelle Ultra. * 2.16GHz Intel Pentium Dual T3400 * 4 GB of memory (1.7GBused at boot)
00:00 - Pop!_OS tiling is shaping up nicely. We’re hoping to have a 20.04 beta release available in about a month.
- Our new Meekat mini desktop has an abundance of ports. The dual USB+Ethernet add-on has been popular.
- “Virgo” is the code name for the laptop we’ll manufacture at our Denver factory. This is the LCD “A” panel milled from thin 6061 aluminum bar stock.
- COSMIC is coming along nicely. Here's my fall theme. Still lots of work to do before it's ready. Building the toolkit simultaneously is a large effort but well worth the investment long-term.
- I really like the single bottom panel option on COSMIC. Our alpha release gets closer by the day. We had 67 alpha 1 issues this morning. The number isn't necessarily indicative of the work because they're varying degrees of effort but it's still helpful.
- The first alpha release of Pop!_OS 24.04 with COSMIC will be released August 8th. @jeremy_soller, Maria, and I join the System76 Transmission Log pod to chat about how COSMIC came to be and where it's headed. system76.transistor.fm/10
- Buy system76 computers if you want to support bringing PC manufacturing to the US. We’re the only company to demonstrate a willingness to invest profit in manufacturing and a history of successful execution.Seems like something we should probably fix
