Debian sid makes so much sense now

Cool that someone put the pictures together. I knew they were named after Toy Story characters, but as someone who’s only watched the movie once or twice, I didn’t know all the minor characters, and never bothered to look them up.

This has been the case since Debian was launched, decades ago.

Yes, that’s what the article says.

How is this news? Why not just link to Wikipedia’s list of debian releases or something.

walden ,

Does wikipedia have pictures of the characters?

It took me a while to realise this because by the time I learned about Debian they were already well into the secondary characters.

My favorite part remains naming the unstable release “sid”.

That’s neat, I didn’t know that.

The name Debian comes from the original creator, Ian Murdock, and his wife Debra.
