Announced September 15 on TSMC's 2nm N2P process with Arm C2 cores, LPDDR6 support and a dual-NPU design (MediaTek). The NPU 1090 delivers 51% higher LLM prefill throughput and 55% more token generation per watt, and Generative AI Engine 3.0 doubles INT4 compute, which is what gets a 30B MoE running with no cloud round-trip. Multi-core power drops 61% against the predecessor. A 3nm Dimensity 9600M variant ships alongside it.

0.35 adds gpt-6-astra to the CLI's OpenAI provider, so llm -m gpt-6-astra works against the same logging, template and fragment machinery as every other model in the tool. For anyone scripting cross-model evals, that means a new frontier model needs zero new plumbing to enter...
After 20+ years maintaining Paint.NET, Rick Brewster concluded WINE's Direct2D would never be complete enough for what he needed, so the app now carries its own from-scratch reverse-engineered Direct2D implementation. He puts it at 180,000 lines against 700,000 for the rest of...
Created August 24, it holds a trendingScore of 3,967 against second-place GLM-5.3-Flash at 1,376 (Hugging Face). The near-1:1 like-to-download ratio means almost everyone bookmarking it hasn't pulled weights, and the unsloth GGUF conversion at 4,354 downloads is absorbing comp...
