16.0 Alpha 1 has arrived...
People ask me how come I often don't know these things... It's simple really. I'm on kernel-generic-7.2.4-x86_64-1 running #Slackware -current and don't actually bother to look up from the work I'm doing cause 16 is just a distro's version number, but 7.2.4 is a kernel. Officially, Slackware 16.0 Alpha is available w/the Linux huge 6.18.x kernel while 7.2.4 is in /testing.
Me, I'm just rolling along in production as I have been for close to 30 years now w/ Slackware - current looking back on the next upcoming release like it's something from yesterday lolz.
I do the same thing on #Debian (14/Testing/Forky) I just upgraded my kernel to 7.1.12+deb14-amd64 - so I'm not running that far behind the ultra-bleeding edge of Slackware, or what Arch and Gentoo users are either.
Anyway, you're going to hear more about the upcoming Slackware 16 release as the weeks go on and if there's one thing I can advise you of it's don't get caught up in the guessing game bullshit - Patrick will release it matter-of-factly w/o any fanfare and pretty much all bets will be wrong. The most you can do is to ask, "Is it soup yet?".
So here's the thread, and Patrick's response to the OP (who's running 7.3-RC1)

First discovered in 2002, paleontologist draw comparisons of #Dinocephalosaurus_orientalis with other aquatic species having no modern day analogs - why did the entire family of #Tanystropheidae or the genera exhibiting these morphological functionalities not continue?
Perhaps just as interesting is the convergent evolution (especially with respect to their necks) between that of Dinocephalosaurus and members of the Tanystropheus genus. A close resemblance on the surface, yet Dinocephalosaurus orientalis was strictly an aquatic species.
I've included an artists reconstructive rendition of Tanystropheus longobardicus for comparison between the two, but note that Dinocephalosaurus had four flipper-like feet of the same size, and unable to exist, or at least thrive in a terrestrial environment, where Tanystropheus exhibited larger feet in the rear - not unlike your hands being smaller than your feet.
And yes, as Yuki (@youronlyone) offers up as a contemplative inference, the whole "Dragon" and "Loch Ness Monster" corollaries are uncanny, raising questions as to why would pre-industrial societies actually have such fables, or in the case of the latter, claims of sightings, if not rooted in some previous observation by humans?
Dinocephalosaurus was extant from the late #Paleozoic (late Permian period) through the early #Mesozoic (early Triassic period) eras.
#tallship #Dinocephalosaurus #Triassic #Tanystropheus #Tanystropheus_longobardicus h/t to @youronlyone for bringing the latest news on this matter to me - I'm always fascinated with things related to #marine_biology - especially #Opisthobranchia
