#AlpineLinux 3.21: Lean, mean, and #LoongArch-ready
Alpine #Linux follows closely upon the release of a new #LTS kernel version: 6.12
Alpine 3.21 has a raft of other updates along with the kernel: updated development tools including .NET 9, and new desktops including KDE Plasma 6.2, LXQt 2.1, and GNOME 47
The version before this one, Alpine 3.20, added #RISCV back in May. Now, it gains another: the quite #MIPS-like Chinese #Loongson

It’s Official: #LinuxKernel 6.12 Will Be #LTS, Supported for “Multiple Years”
The #Linux 6.12 kernel series will receive maintenance updates with bug and #security fixes at least until December 2026. https://9to5linux.com/its-official-linux-kernel-6-12-will-be-lts-supported-for-multiple-years
#AMD #EPYC 9755 Performance On The #Linux 6.11 & 6.12 Kernel
In many of the larger, real-world workloads there were minimal to small changes while in more of the micro-benchmarks and other focused areas there were some nice gains observed with Linux 6.11/6.12. With Linux 6.12 expected to be this year's LTS kernel version, it will find use by hyperscalers and other large organizations that tend to jump between the #LTS kernel versions.

#Ubuntu 24.04.1 #LTS Is Now Available for Download, Here’s What’s New
This release introduces #ActiveDirectory integration and enables upgrades from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) systems.
The next point release, Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS, is planned for February 2025. It will be a more exciting release as it will be powered by #Linux kernel 6.11 and Mesa 24.2 graphics stacks from the upcoming Ubuntu 24.10 (Oracular Oriole) release, due out in October 2024.

I would appreciate some advice on a #Linux #distro recommendation:
The Device: A 2012 laptop with a 3rd Gen Core i3, 4 GB of RAM, and a spinning HDD (maybe I'll upgrade in the future)
The person it's for: My mom, not very tech savvy, is using Windows 10, will need a replacement for when 10 goes EOL Oct. 2025. Has used Windows Vista, 8, and 10. Everything she does is doable within basic apps like a web browser, simple office suite, or pleasant desktop apps; Linux alternatives will work perfectly.
What the distro has to be: LTS, simple to maintain, have a workable Windows-like interface, not be Ubuntu. Needs to run smoothly on the provided specs.
Any ideas and help are appreciated. Consider boosting for more perspectives.

Long-term support for Linux kernels reduced from 6 to 2 years https://www.fosslife.org/linux-long-term-support-being-cut-back #Linux #kernel #FOSS #SoftwareDevelopment #maintainers #LTS #OpenSource
@fuzztech @volpeon @ubuntu depends...
OFC if you like #Minimalism and prioritize #speed, then maybe @bunsenlabs #BunsenLabs #Linux is a better choice...
For me, #Ubuntu #LTS is the way to go since it's bsically "Install and Forget" for the support lifespan as #updates just work and all the toolz my customers/employers/colleagues could ever ask for just work on it.
