Aww, it's always sad to see a real one go. You'll always be in my mind linux 6.9.x (nice)

[-] spacemanspiffy@lemmy.world 50 points 3 months ago

I'm still running 4.20.0 like a gangster

I'm still booting 0.94c from floppy.

Wait, I don't get this joke

Plot twist: they're serious.

Appreciate the work they're doing, but... according to Linus, most changes were in bcachefs (27 commits IIRC) yet this summary mentions nothing about it.

I guess because most people reading it won't run bcachefs?

bcachefs

dang it, I keep reading this as "BCA Chefs" 🤦

I forgot how version numbers work for a second, and that 6.1 is not 6.10.

You're not alone in that. I remember when Blender 2.80 was about to release and it was a big milestone and everybody online was hyping about "Blender 2.8". I think even Blender themselves went with the flow and changed the marketing.

I'm going to up vote and ruin this, but document for posterity.

I find myself guilty of this mistake as well. Honestly I think anything higher than x.9 should be avoided due to confusion x)

[-] mactan@lemmy.ml 9 points 3 months ago

looks like one more hopefully until the rest of NTSync makes it in

[-] narc0tic_bird@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

Let's see when this makes it to Tumbleweed :)

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

I liked that game, it harkened me back to the old Scumm games of old, like Loom, Monkey Island, and Maniac Mansion

[-] muhyb@programming.dev 1 points 3 months ago

I think you replied to wrong thread. :)

[-] xilliah@beehaw.org 2 points 3 months ago

ARM: davinci: Convert comma to semicolon

[-] WhiteBerry@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Is there any good news for the x elite laptops?

[-] LeFantome@programming.dev 1 points 3 months ago

I saw a few good commits in there. Sadly, I think we will have to wait for the next one before things really become usable.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
