Been thinking of switching to linux but I am a noob
Generally, Arch is the better platform for getting various kernel versions, but there's always stuff like Xanmod which is easy to do in any distro. Worst case, could always use linux-tkg script to build your own kernel - with that kind of hardware it shouldn't take long for the kernel to be built.

The nvidia proprietary driver sets this anyway after installation. This fixes the issue of KDE Wayland often times freezing on first login before nvidia proprietary drivers are installed. latest mesa release version provided for AMD/Intel desktop/GL drivers, mesa-git vulkan drivers provided for latest vulkan fixes/updates, built and updated regularly (every few weeks to a month on average) glibc patched with clone3 disabled (fixes CEF compatibility in applications using outdated CEF such as Discord, Steam beta) glibc patched with broken commits reverted to allow EasyAntiCheat to work for Rogue Company dnf max parallel downloads increased to 6 gst-editing-services disabled — causes WINE to hang when creating new prefixes lspci symlink from /usr/sbin/lspci to /usr/bin/lspci for Dying Light: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/forum/topic/2766/post_id=17381 ‘nobara-controller-config’ package provided for easy installation of xone and xpadneo drivers and firmware. gnome variable refresh rate patches added for mutter: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1154 gnome mutter check-alive-timeout increased from 5 seconds to 30 seconds. This is the amount of time gnome waits before trying to determine if an application is not responding. At 5 seconds it almost immediately triggers for league of legends (and some other applications) if those applications are still in the loading phase. We feel 30 seconds is a much more reasonable wait time. gnome mutter patched with x11 fractional scaling: https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mutter/-/raw/ubuntu/master/debian/patches/ubuntu/x11-Add-support-for-fractional-scaling-using-Randr.patch gnome mutter wayland and x11 fractional scaling enabled by default: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#Fractional_scaling gnome shell patched with https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2358 to allow gnome-extension-manager to auto-update without needing gnome-extension-app installed. (They both function the same but gnome-extension-manager allows management of extensions without a browser). gamescope version regularly updated goverlay version regularly updated mangohud version regularly updated vkbasalt version regularly updated vm.max_map_count = 16777216 set by default for Star Citizen xwayland patched with fix for locked fps on some systems: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:hwsnemo:xwayland/xwayland/xwayland-vsync.diff?expand=1 supergfxctl and gnome extension + kde plasmoid enabled for laptops. Vendor agnostic and works with any combination of intel/amd/nvidia gpus.

What is the best Linux Kernel for gaming?
Technically, it would be https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg compiled specifically for you CPU and with tickless and a bunch of other patches, but the different isn't significant
-
Error 2124 when trying to interact with super-block (show-super, set-option)
Kernel: Gentoo-sources (6.1.28) with these patches for bcachefs (applied through Gentoo user patches, no other patches installed)
-
Distro Hop best way?
New kernel is available, just not straight from Manjaro. Plus lots of options and patches https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg

Wine-tkg or Linux-tkg in Ubuntu Studio?
Is it possible for Ubuntu Studio to have the kernel upgraded -it is at 5.15 atm? The kernel from the Frogging Family: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg And how do I install wine-tkg 😅 I cant seems to figure it out. https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git

Current state of Tumbleweed with Nvidia graphic cards? (updates/bricked system)
I use Nvidia (GTX 1080) and Tumbleweed just fine. No issues. But also I use a custom Kernel, based-on TKG currently and HEAVILY customized (https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg). I also use SLRC (https://susepaste.org/89529032) SUSE Local Repository Creator, to download and keep all the repos I use for SUSE, including Tumbleweed.
-
TW good for gaming?
Also, I use a custom Kernel (at the moment TKG - https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg), supports SUSE. But there's also pre-built Liquorix Kernel for SUSE Tumbleweed in the OBS: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:hwsnemo:kernels /kernel-liquorix

Can't run any games on GE Proton (Zorin OS Lite)
You can compile by yourself, TKG is the easiest for me: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg
-
Would MicroOS be appropriate for me? Or better to go with tumbleweed
I have no issues with Nvidia drivers on Tumbleweed. But also you can use a custom Kernel (TKG -- https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg -- for instance) and use offline repos (with this script: https://susepaste.org/89529032 -- not mine but clean) to download SUSE repos that you need. Re run the script to update. Quick, easy and you're not bombarded with updates; update when you want. Works beaut with Tumbleweed.

Linus Torvalds adds arbitrary tabs to kernel code
These are a bit easier to see what's going on:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e...
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/d5cf50dafc9dd5faa1e61...
Unfortunately Github doesn't have a way to render symbols for whitespace, but you can tell by selecting the spaces that the previous version had leading tabs. Linus changed it so that the tokens `default` and the number e.g. `12` are also separated by a tab. This is tricky, because the token "default" is seven characters, it will always give this added tab a width of 1 char which makes it always layout the same as if it were a space no matter if you use tab widths of 1, 2, 4, or 8.

PfSense Software Embraces Change: A Strategic Migration to the Linux Kernel
There was also a Gentoo effort to run atop FreeBSD[0]. The challenge of course is that afaik none of the BSD kernel ABIs are considered stable. The stable interface is the BSD libc. That said, with binfmt_misc, I don't see a reason you couldn't just run (at least some) FreeBSD binaries on Linux with a thin syscall translation layer (rather something like qemu-system) and then your layer hooked via binfmt_misc. I'm not aware of anyone who has done this for FreeBSD, but prior efforts existed as alternate binfmts for SysVr4/5 ELF binaries[2]. Either way would take some elbow grease, but you *might* even be able just reuse binfmt_elf and just have a new interpreter for FreeBSD elf.

Improvements to static analysis in GCC 14
> The original less-than check was deemed incorrect
It was only deemed incorrect because of an information leak. Not because it's a valid use-case for user space to copy smaller portions of *hwrpb into user space. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/21c5977a836e399fc71...

TinyMCE (also) moving from MIT to GPL
Correct. And the combined work needs to carry the MIT license text and copyright attributions for the MIT software authors. With binary distribution it must also be overt, not hidden in some source code drop, but directly accompanying the binary.
Many people who talk about relicensing never credit the MIT developers or distribute the MIT license text. "Because it's GPL now."
I don't think that you believe that, but many developers do.
Some don't see the need for source code scans for Open Source compliance, because the license.txt says GPL, so it's GPL. Prime example is the Linux kernel. There is code under different licenses in there, but people don't even read https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/COPYING till the end ("In addition, other licenses may also apply.") and conclude it's simply GPL 2 and nothing else.
Also be aware that sublicensing is not the same as relicensing.

He notoriously hates GNU Emacs, yes.

The Linux Kernel Prepares for Rust 1.77 Upgrade
So If we would only count code and not comments, it is only 9489 LoC Rust. Which would be about 0.03% and if we take all lines and not only LoC it would be around 0.05%
