Also, Win10 IoT LTSC has guaranteed support into 2032.

However, Linux kernel 6.14 is yet another short-lived branch that will be supported for a couple of months, which means that it will probably reach end of life sometime in May 2025. If you’re looking for long-term support, you should use either Linux kernel 6.12 LTS or Linux kernel 6.6 LTS, both of which are supported until December 2026.

It’s ZDNet, so, probably. CNET and others have, so why not the once-popular shell of itself, ZDNet, too?

Thx again for the reply. Adding PPA’s is pointed to as a no-no for Debian stable, otherwise I would add it in a heartbeat.

I may have described my situation poorly to explain the MX relationship with Debian 12. The base is Debian 12 Bookworm:

Distro: MX-23.5_ahs_x64 Libretto May 19  2024 base: Debian GNU/Linux 12
    (bookworm)

MX is currently on Debian 12 Bookworm, but I can select backports or testing from the package manager:

Thanks. I tried this with Meson and Ninja, and it kept requiring more and more build and make tools that reported broken dependencies, so I got worried I’d brick something else.

I downloaded the nightly from the mailing list and tried to build but… I’m out of my wheelhouse.

Thx for the reply!

My AHS version includes the 6.13.7-2 kernel, but the testing repo (MX anyway) doesn’t show a newer version of Mesa.

For sure, but I worry that Amazon would see that as just cause to terminate my account, and I have some video and music purchases I’d lose access to. In the end, maybe that’s the cost of safety in this marketplace, but it sure is getting hard to shop these days…

I have a screenshot of the original estimated delivery date of this Friday. I’ll reach out Monday if (when) the GPUs don’t arrive.

Still, it stings, because when I made the purchase, the GPU I want was still available from other sellers for close to MSRP, but now they are all over by more than 25%, and I’m not paying more than they’re worth (which, arguably, I was already doing).

I agree that this needs to be out there. I’m not fully tapped into the overclockers and other enthusiast forums/communities, but I do follow tech news closely. I’ve read about a lot of scams, but this one had slipped by, if it was ever reported on where my eyeballs are reading.

I just never considered that I had to worry about sellers on Amazon. In hindsight, it’s awfully naive of me to think they are this big and have a handle on fraud. Like put forth in Masnick’s Impossibility Theorem: Content Moderation At Scale Is Impossible To Do Well, and that includes managing fraud on a marketplace.

Oh, man! What a horrible surprise that would be to receive a chip from 2011 when you’re expecting the BEST GAMING CPU EVERRRRR.

I won’t lie. I was looking at that CPU on Amazon a few days ago and noticed that the “sold by Amazon” one was being undercut by a third party (which COULD be totally legit) by $50. I think I am going to pause my tech purchases for a little bit.

Thanks for the link!

Oh! I guess my interest only went as far as finding an alternative. I didn’t realize they still add from upstream.

Thx for enlightening me.

Who is still using Audacity anymore? Tenacity is where it’s at.

“Ahckck-knowledgt!”

I just updated to 2.24.2 that specifically addresses this, but its back again.

Same for me. Closing and clearing cache was necessary to clear the unexplained dot.
