@littlealex@infosec.exchange @cR0w@infosec.exchange Yup. That is exactly the rule of the game. Very publicly known since ages. BDFL and all. Everyone who is even modestly involved in it knows Mr Torvalds approach to things past his threshold of fucks to be given. To summarize: High qualify FOSS 🍿 drama. More in news at eleven. 😂 Here's the relevant actual LKML link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/CAHk-=wi4zC+Ze8e+p3tMv8TtG_80KzsZ1syL9anBtmEh5Z40vg@mail.gmail.com/ #lkml #linux #torvalds #foss #fossdrama #ai #llm #opensource

Warning: never judge a book by its cover. The Register: Torvalds challenged the haters to fork Linux. Someone said 'hold my beer' https://www.theregister.com/os-platforms/2026/07/17/torvalds-challenged-the-haters-to-fork-linux-someone-said-hold-my-beer/5274275 @theregister@geeknews.chat @lproven@social.vivaldi.net #Linux #Torvalds

Linus #Torvalds' justification is security: If secure boot is enabled, this must mean that the user does not wish the memory to be filled with data from the disk because it is untrusted. (Correct me if I'm wrong.) However, is it really still part of the boot process when you load the #SwapFile into memory? Also, if you distrust the disk, why would you even load the operating system from it? By Linus' logic, #Linux should only support #SecureBoot in combination with disk encryption. 🤔

Linus #Torvalds hat #Linux 7.1 freigegeben. Das #Update für den #Kernel bringt einen verbesserten NTFS-Treiber, Leistungsoptimierungen für Intel- und AMD-Prozessoren sowie das Support-Ende für alte Hardware. https://winfuture.de/news,159343.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
