Yes. Old news from yester day. Do we need a thread for that. Yes we do.

Especially like that they removed robotics and go full space instead. 2 years to release an $2000+ for a device. It’s a bargain!!!

I wonder what "emotional machine-intelligence" is. I guess the phone will make a call with a feeling of a satisfaction of a good job well done.

hahahahahaa
ah god ..
that was good pichlo...

I'm making a stab at guessing it is the x-rated version of the HAL2000

The phone design is definitely above and beyond in the futuristic look.

Frankly ..view is a bit "busy" looking as well..
also I never cared for hinged anything..it always is a weak point when something is hinged.

a flexible pull-out from a tube type screen would seem more practical.

I would sooner use something a little more ...closer and more seamless ...so to speak..if I were to chose my desired format of design...
Like the Cicret ...
If they jump their last hurdle..to production...

In all fairness, full credit belongs to Mr Douglas Adams (R.I.P. :().

Sailfish to android. Now going to custom freebsd. God forbid they develop an ecosystem and stick to it

Me ...
I never speculate...
Predict ...
deduce...
gamble ...rarely...

I believe in sure things..

My best guess is their go at freebsd will fail to win the popular enduser vote...
and they will head straight for ...

Hannah Montana Linux

to try to make up those needed enduser numbers...

George Neville-Neil | Chief Software Architect
George Neville-Neil, Chief Software Architect for both Aemaeth and Turing Space Industries, published his first piece of commercial software while still in college. He has worked on research projects with the University of Cambridge and the University of Twente in the Netherlands and produced commercial software for companies such as Wind River Systems, who -- along with NASA -- put a bit of his code on Mars with the Pathfinder probe. Neville-Neil teaches at conferences, and while at Yahoo Inc. developed the Paranoid University, a training program for technical and non-technical employees covering all aspects of secure programming practices.

He is the author of two leading books on operating systems, the latest co-authored with Marshall Kirk McKusick and Robert N. M. Watson, “The Design and implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System, Second Edition” and the columnist better-known as Kode Vicious, producing the most widely read column in both of ACM’s premier flagship magazines, "Queue" and "Communications of the ACM." He chairs the ACM Practitioner Board, which is dedicated to bridging the gap between research and industry, and he helped create the ACM Applicative conference.

Neville-Neil has been a FreeBSD committer for more than 10 years, and he currently serves on the elected core team. He is on the board of directors of the FreeBSD Foundation.

Neville-Neil holds a BS in Computer Science from Northeastern University.
This guy being part of the FreeBSD board can be checked here: https://www.freebsdfoundation.org/ab...-of-directors/

Not a word about turing from what appears to be his twitter and website though, so not sure that he really is on board... : https://twitter.com/gvnn3

Indeed, why? It's not like there has ever been any popular OS built on top of it.
