Time to get my old laptop out and to start playing with #Gentoo...
There is still the #Torvalds kernel problem though.
At the moment, my digital and online life feels like a permanent and desperate flight from #ensloppification and #enshittification.

Linus Torvalds banishes Linux bug with a bot – Liam Proven | The Register
<https://www.theregister.com/os-platforms/2026/08/24/linus-torvalds-banishes-linux-bug-with-a-bot/5291784> @lproven
"… There are several points of interest here. One is that the fix is from Linus himself. Another is the unusually discursive comment. The third and perhaps the most important is that he used a bot to find the bug. He also used it to write the bug report, …
It’s a good example of how coding bots are a legitimately useful tool for developers. It looks like he didn’t use the bot to write the fix – that wasn’t needed, it’s a one-line fix – but the bot wrote 42 chunks of test code that enabled Linus to find the bug. …"
I wondered about his choice of AI, Claude could not tell us: <https://claude.ai/share/d161d4d5-b56f-4bfa-be2f-c95a741d10a5>.

#Linux was announced by #LinusTorvalds 35 years ago today — humble OS started with 10,000 lines of code but has now grown to 40 million, dominates global infrastructure
The OS would have been known as #Freax if one of #Torvalds' co-workers hadn't made a last-minute change to the upload.

#Linus #Torvalds setzt bei hartnäckigem Intel-Grafikfehler auf #KI-Hilfe
#LinusTorvalds hat selbst eine Änderung am #Intel-Xe-Treiber des #Linux_Kernels vorgenommen. Der Anlass war ein hartnäckiger Fehler auf einer Intel-Battlemage-G21-Grafikkarte, dessen Suche sich zu einer außergewöhnlich aufwendigen Debugging-Sitzung entwickelte. Unterstützung bekam Torvalds dabei von einer KI, die ihm vor allem bei den zahlreichen Routineaufgaben während der Analyse zur Seite stand.

Es geht nicht um #KI - es geht um Macht, #Meinungswechsel und #Fakten
Linus #Torvalds verteidigt KI im #Kernel scharf. Ein Kommentar darüber, warum es dabei eigentlich um Macht und Fakten geht - nicht um KI.
Die Schlagzeile "Linus Torvalds verteidigt KI-Code" klingt erstmal nach dem x-ten Aufguss der ewigen KI-Debatte. Pro oder contra, Fortschritt oder Untergang, wir kennen die Lager, wir kennen die Argumente.

Someone's comment on the #Torvalds debacle is living rent-free in my head.
It was something like, "Yeah, I bet the same people believe they can write better assembly than a modern compiler."
Umm...

@littlealex @cR0w 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. 😂

Linus #Torvalds bezieht Stellung zur Rolle von #KI im #Linux_Kernel
#Linus_Torvalds hat seine Haltung zu #KI deutlich bekräftigt. Der #LinuxKernel bleibt offen für den Einsatz entsprechender Werkzeuge. Eine Pflicht zur Nutzung soll es dennoch nicht geben.
Dabei ging es um #Sprachmodelle und automatische #Codeprüfungen. Einige Stimmen lehnen deren Einsatz grundsätzlich ab. #Torvalds widerspricht dieser Haltung entschieden.
