Adtec Plasma Technology (TSE:6668) Stock Climbs As Valuation Heat Builds - Simply Wall Street

Marking the 30th anniversary of KDE on October 14, the project released Plasma 6.8, debuted a movie, and retired Plasma’s native X11 session support. The announcement from KDE dubs the new Plasma 6.8 as the “30th Anniversary Edition” and describes the update as preparing Plasma for the future. Legacy X11 applications will still function via the XWayland compatibility layer, and KDE applications will also continue supporting X11 under other desktop environments. After 42 years in service, the X11 protocol is losing another major desktop environment. Plasma will fully adopt the Wayland system and put support for starting new X11 sessions in Plasma to bed. Users opting to stay on Plasma 6.7 will keep their existing sessions for now. The move was expected, with GNOME officially dropping X11 sessions by default in 2025.

Owen Whaley has repeated Creature From the Black Lagoon V16 in Upper Chaos, Colorado. The send of Daniel Woods’s 2016 testpiece adds to Whaley’s list of hard sends, which already includes two V16s: Sosa and Grand Illusion. Whaley first visited Colorado in July for some alpine bouldering, and discovered that Creature From the Black Lagoon “was great to climb on in the summer,” as Whaley said on 8a.nu, “because the holds aren’t that sharp.”
