Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Coolest projects, GO!
https://github.com/shiro/map2 - another neat remapper program. more complex and no gui but more scriptable

How to create shortcut to executable?
I've also used a remapper tool called map2 but for a different use-case. Map2 documentation links to some of the scan codes though which could be helpful if you end up having to map the function keys to something... not really sure how those work but I've used it to map multimedia keys on a logitech k400 htpc keyboard before.

Do you still miss anything from Windows?
Maybe map2 can do some things you need.

Need Help! Left Ctrl + C and Left Shift + C does not work
As a temporary workaround and probably a long shot: but if not hw related and you are getting the keypresses but they're being ignored... maybe you could get away with some keyboard remapping apps? Maybe map2 or kbct
-
Need help with rebinding CapsLock to ctrl+c (or better method if someone has better idea)
A linux alternative to AHK I made called map2 lets you do that easily, although there are other remapping projects as well.
-
Programs that are holding me back from completely switching to Linux (Manjaro)
for number 3: One way to bind mouse (keyboard, controller, etc.) keys similar to AHK is map2. It's significantly easier to use than Xorg keybindings and lets you do application specific bindings. Your can bind keys, key sequences and even complex actions such as scripts.
-
Map shell scripts to game controller button presses
I'm the author of map2 that lets you map keys to other keys, sequences and complex actions like running a script. I haven't tried it with wiimotes (but I will when I find some time) so one would have to inspect which key events are emitted in order to remap them.
-
Per-Program Mouse Button re-mapping
I'm the author of map2 which allows you to write simple scripts to remap buttons (incl. mouse), also you can do so per application. It's very flexible, but might require some programming skills, I recommend reading the docs and check the examples folder (there is a logitech mouse example too).

Remapped keyboard settings isn't respected by some games
Mapping thorough X11 might not work everywhere and it's clunky. I'm the author of map2, it lets you do AHK-style key remapping and scripting on evdev level (meaning it's below X11 or wayland), so it works everywhere.

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.

Linus Torvalds is looking for a more modern GUI editor
> Does he have something against it?
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%

Proposed Windows NT sync driver brings big Wine/Proton performance improvements
AIUI fsync is built on futex_waitv which has been upstreamed. So this has to be more than that.
