2025? Is there some new tech to be released then?

I'm going to guess the joke is it's always one year away :)

To be fair there may be a jump in desktop linux use with the windows 10 eol making a ton of usable devices unsupported, if silverblue and flatpaks could be polished up a bit in time it could be a good opportunity given people having less money for new devices at the moment.

You don't need to guess it, you can see it in its source code:

var clock; $(document).ready(function() { // Grab the current date var currentDate = new Date(); // Set some date in the future. In this case, it's always Jan 1 var futureDate = new Date(currentDate.getFullYear() + 1, 0, 1); // Calculate the difference in seconds between the future and current date var diff = futureDate.getTime() / 1000 - currentDate.getTime() / 1000; // Instantiate a coutdown FlipClock clock = $('.clock').FlipClock(diff, { clockFace: 'DailyCounter', countdown: true }); });
