They’ve had a year to work on the layoffs.

Yup. Warm up that resume and work on an exit strategy.

What are we ranking? The boot order of computers?

Of the 3 you listed, the init is only important to a few distros.

Also you forgot this is Linux and the initramfs.

Package manager needs to be higher since Linux distros are software distribution projects mainly.

1. Package manager
2. Config tools
3. Config defaults
4. Kernel
5. Init process
6. Software

As an alternative idea…

A using a spare desktop as a headless VM server would be a good way to practice your CLI skills. Don’t install a GUI, or web admin tool, and only use SSH to admin it.

From there, setup a couple of VMs for Arch or Gentoo testing. Eventually, a Linux From Scratch attempt would provide a lot of learning opportunities.

It’s possible to let them know the email is active, and they should follow up.

Was it Arcan or something else?

Yes. In place upgrades are pretty easy at this point though.

Fedora releases newer software versions regularly, and this can be a problem for third party software.

The task scheduler in the Linux kernel was using a max value of 8 in its calculations rather than the actual number of cores in the machine.

The machine could have 128 cores, but the scheduler would base its calculations on 8 cores. As a result, the processes on the machine would run for less time than they should.

The article itself isn’t very clear. It took me a while to figure out the scheduler algorithms were affected rather than the kernel as a whole.

How is the firmware support? Beelink isn’t mentioned on LVFS.

It’s fairly recent, and I don’t think they advertise it. It appeared one day in the generator. 😆

I don’t think it’s particularly good, but it’s something!

It does.

Yay! No Nvidia this time.

I can too. I’ve seen something like that before. It was interesting, but not interesting enough for me to care about it as a feature.
