Still no bcachefs? Wasn't in the article.

Linus Torvalds himself had some issues compiling it or something, so it got rejected. The bcachefs dev wasn't too happy and thru a hissy fit, calling the whole process "kafkaesque", and declared that he'll be going offline for a while.

Make Linux 6.6.6 an LTS version.

if you boot into a 6.6.6 kernel with a idkfa flag it actually boots into UEFI-DOOM.

Hahahahah, I already knew about UEFI-DOOM and it sucks to play.

yes, the scary number. followed shortly by vendor patches to make it 6.6.7 (MHz) so that customers arent frightened

EEVDF is the thing that is exciting about it.
