Linux Kernel 6.6 Officially Released
(9to5linux.com)
Arch users rn:
while true; do pacman -Syu; done
That's what you call a rolling release distribution.
Overkill. Just cron it to run every hour.
That's how you get a system that's constantly up to a whole hour outdated. Just install Ubuntu.
The gap between 6.5 launching and 6.6 launching seems smaller than normal.
Edit : looking back this is not the case. It is the same 2 months between releases. Man time flies
“No entry found for ‘time flies’”
The Devil's share on Halloween, praise Torvalds ;)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
