And still no response here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/e12330b9-c29e-45ca-9375-9e3d13426d85@horse64.org/T/
I wonder when somebody's going to fork the Linux Kernel based on a pre slop version. Seems almost inevitable to eventually happen at this point.
it will be the most unmaintained shit ever
TempleOS beckons you
Seems like NetBSD might also be an interesting option!
I think forking would probably be the easiest step. After that, you'd need contributors and I don't know if many devs would change from the present kernel to the non-AI one.
Honestly, it would be asking for trouble (aka downright stupid) to engage, so the lack of responses should be reassuring that the mental faculties of Linux developers are still intact.
Not so reassuring from a moral standpoint. Greg probably knows all of this and it was evil from his part encouraging the poor guy to post.
Possibly, or possibly he just didn't want to engage himself and tried to be helpful nonetheless.
I wonder when people will slop lying about ai use in the kernel. Gonna guess they won't stop.
Go on then
