codex recently updated

Trying to update thunderbird, but some GAME PAD code is blocking it right now. (why?)

Along with some NT6 processor functions of NTDLL, the first NT6 call inside #ReactOS kernel is now implemented! A milestone for ongoing Vista+ effort!!

It's a great time to join us and start contributing ^^

I’m so sorry for everyone at id Software affected by these layoffs.

I know what it feels like to leave id while id goes on. It’s a strange and painful thing to step away from a place that holds so much of your work, friendships and history.

The people at id have done a great job moving that legacy forward. DOOM, Quake, and Wolfenstein are not easy names to carry on, especially in today’s industry. The last few games showed real care, skill and respect for what those worlds mean to people.

A note on digital preservation: id's history is critically important to the history of games. I’ve preserved id’s complete early history from our start at Softdisk through to August 6, 1996, including materials and assets that, as far as I know, id itself no longer has. I hope someone is doing the same for the company’s ongoing legacy (the work, code, assets, stories and the people behind them).

I’m thinking of everyone at id today, and everyone else affected by yesterday’s layoffs. Romero Games was there a year ago. I know how devastating it is, and my heart's with all of you.

Just like our previous Half-Life test, Half-Life 2 on #ReactOS is featured on @phoronix!
Again, thank you for spreading us :)

Here's Krita 3.2.1 working on #ReactOS!

[ReactOS @reactos]

During his ARM64 experiments, our contributor @sidihmeed found a number of bugs in our Win32 subsystem. In last month, he committed 16 PRs to #ReactOS; eliminating a GUI stall, fixing some API tests and improving general stability a little bit ;)

[AlternativeTo @AlternativeTo]

ReactOS now supports its first Windows NT6 system call, a key milestone for Windows Vista and later binary compatibility. New NT6 processor functions included.

Devuan removed /etc/machine-id in 2019 because we knew.

Any project competent enough to ship a distro either knows what undeclared user tracking enables, or is useful to those who do.
Those who knew and lied should be held accountable.

#ReactOS Live now boots on this HP Pavilion dm1!
According to the tester, previously ReactOS had issues with the memory controller.

[MidnightBSD @midnightbsd]

Asked on Reddit, but also want feedback here. considering moving AI products to a dedicated "ai" category in mports rather than all in misc/

https://t.co/lYsaG8gucQ

Thoughts?

This would impact llama.cpp, vibe, codex, claude-code, grok-cli, etc.

[ReactOS @reactos]

#ReactOS installs and runs on HP Pavilion Elite HPE!
While USB and ethernet works, audio does not. Graphics drivers are not available.

[MidnightBSD @midnightbsd]

Release plans:
4.0.7 will be coming once more testing of the zfs fix is done. so far it's stable.

4.1.0 is getting closer. We just set up the first package build for amd64. We're building an i386 magus node right now.
