throgh: Die #Arroganz ist schon überwältigend, die Einem manchmal im Technikumfeld entgegen schlägt. Pro-Linux.de hält einen aktuellen Artikel bereit, der über den Entschluss weiterer Derivate von #Ubuntu berichtet die 32bit-Unterstützung zu kippen. Angeblich hätten die meisten Entwickler gar nicht mehr entsprechende Hardware verfügbar und überhaupt sei die Architektur hoffnungslos veraltet. Das sicherlich in Teilen korrekt sein. Dennoch enthält diese Argumentation einen gehörigen Anteil von Arroganz. Was ist beispielsweise mit #Meltdown, #Spectre sowie in Teilen auch #Spectre-NG? Diese Fehler sind immer noch nicht vollständig behoben und daher gültige Sicherheitslücken. Und was ist mit der rein menschlichen Komponente? Man sollte meines Erachtens niemals vergessen woher man kommt und wie die Wegstrecke dazu ausgesehen hat. Oder ist es inzwischen auch probat nahezu überall schnellstmöglich zu "vergessen"? Gibt ja genug "Ressourcen" und daher können wir auch ganz verschwenderisch damit umgehen. Was ist dann mit der umwelttechnischen Komponente? Also jedwede als "alt" markierte Hardware-Komponente auf den Müll werfen? Prima, trägt ja ordentlich dazu bei wieder Andere zu belasten und beispielsweise Elektroschrott an die Küsten Afrikas zu spülen. In Summe kann man nur den Kopf dazu schütteln und daher schlicht wie einfach ein #Fuck-Off-Ubuntu sowie ein #Fuck-Off-Canonical. Für die hohe Portion an Ignoranz! #Meinung #Gedanken https://gnusocial.federated-networks.org/url/10362

deutrino: So evidently disabling a big chunk of the #spectre and/or #meltdown patch in Linux can be accomplished by passing 'pti=off' or 'nopti' to the kernel as a boot parameter.Eventually I'm gonna find out if this makes my machine usable again once it hits swap. Because right now it's become absolutely insufferable.
