The most depressing news of the week: Intel is ending their performance-optimized Clear Linux distribution. Over the past decade the Clear Linux operating system has shown what's possible with out-of-the-box performance on x86_64 hardware... Not just for Intel platforms but even showing extremely great performance results on AMD x86_64 too. But with the cost-cutting going on at Intel, Clear Linux is now being sunset.

Its not really the most depressing news of the week. Trump opened his mouth many times this week. But yeah, clear Linux never even felt like a viable option. It had good performance but you wouldnt notice that in a day to day desktop experience anyway.
