A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I largely agree with ya. I bet someone can cook up some edge cases where the newer kernel might matter. I like that this article lays out how to setup the GPU. But I know Ubuntu has a nice gui for installing proprietary drivers.
What desktop distro doesn't have a new enough kernel available? Even the current Debian Stable, which is nearing the end of its run, has a recent backport (currently at 6.12.9).
Oh that's cool to know! Yeah, I can't think of something myself.
