• SUSE working on a RHEL fork

  First, it is important to state that Stream is not a rolling release, at least not in the sense that you are thinking. It is "rolling" within a major release, but so are plenty of Linux Distributions. This is also why the centos.org website stopped using "rolling", and started using "continuos" instead at December 2020 (commit). So anyone that keeps using this wording is intentionally being misleading or... Source: 10 months ago

• Keeping Open Source Open: Rocky Linux

  I get that Red Hat has shown themselves to be less than trust worthy given the sunset of CentOS 8, the removal of the centos.org repo updates and the characterization of anyone who uses their software via a clone distro as being a "freeloader" or "parasite". Source: 10 months ago

• what is the typical size of Linux updates?

  This might be a good use case for RHEL family distribution (such as CentOS Stream or AlmaLinux) or Debian. These are much longer lived distributions, and provide fewer update churn over time than other distributions. Source: 11 months ago

• How to learn Linux , what to learn in Linux , how to prove them i know linux?

• problem with connman

  Those other flashy distros like mint and ubuntus are designed with rich people with very fresh machines in mind, they don't care if you have an AMDx4 or core2duo or even 32bit older machine. Even Mint and ubuntu people will tell you, if you have an old machine with little ram, use antiX. It still works very well with machines not even released yet, buy one in May 2024 and I "guaranty you" antiX will run fine. ... Source: 5 months ago

• Is there a way to naively replicate a VarHandle.getOpque with fences?

  The memory_order_relaxed explanation on the kernel.org documentation heavily implies (never explicitly) that the direct memory load is implicit in the barrier(so by preventing it's reordering we are also forcing a LOAD from main), and that THIS specific barrier (relaxed) is what we NEED for these type of scenarios, so I am not entirely sure if a loadLoadFence() would prevent the hoisting... Maybe it will prevent... Source: 7 months ago

• Have some confusion around the Ubuntu Kernel

  Are all versions of the kernel from kernel.org called mainline kernels or only 6.6-rc4 as shown in the picture? Source: 7 months ago
