About this episode

The episode celebrates Tux's 30th birthday while discussing Linux kernel developments and unique projects like a 3D terminal.

Tux turns 30! Kernel devs continue their war against old hardware, and somebody made a 3D terminal with a spinning rat cursor because reasons. Also, Twilight Princess running natively on Linux might feel deeply incorrect, but don't let that stop you.
