A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This Linux billionaire cabal needs to be stopped. My 50MHz 486 CPU works just fine.

The great thing about that is nothing is stopping you from running an older LTS kernel and even after that updating and backporting changes yourself. I have no problem with companies stopping support for things at some point the economics don't make sense. I do have a problem with not letting the Community take up support after the company is done with it.
