I'm kinda surprised they didn't run out of toy story characters yet. After all Ubuntu already ran out of letters

Ubuntu releases twice a year. It only takes 13 years to outrun the English alphabet.

Meanwhile, Debian from 1.0 released in 1996, 25 years, had only 11 releases. 16 if you count unique codenames.

Little known fact, Pixar makes new Toy story movies just so Debian can name their versions.
