A Chromium engineer at Google posted the initial Device Tree (DT) files for being able to boot their latest-generation Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Pixel 10 Pro XL devices with the mainline Linux kernel.

Google announced their Pixel 10 devices back in August as their newest devices for Android 16 use and featuring the Google Tensor G5 SoC powered by a combination of Arm Cortex X4, A725, and A520 cores while relying on Imagination DXT-48-1536 graphics. Outside the confines of Google’s Android, out today is the initial Device Trees for being able to boo the Google Pixel 10 / Pixel 10 Pro / Pixel 10 Pro XL devices with these patches proposed for the mainline Linux kernel.

    It’s a “thorn” and that’s what it’s for. Used to be very common hundreds of years ago.

      Let the record reflect that that is NOT how it’s used. The thorn is voiceless, and EVERY SINGLE CASE here in the TLC is voiced (as in the ‘the’ in ‘the’). As such, they should ACTUALLY be using the letter ‘eth’: ð

      This represents the voiced dental fricative.

      So that’s what it was for and not is I suppose, because I do not know that this is still being used. You go though.
