Then there's the extensible scheduler coming to 6.11 because Torvalds says so, NVIDIA making a move on the upstream kernel, and a bit of a change for ChromeOS. For tips, we have the quake terminal, a tmux environment variable, and an automount command to pick up your missing mounts. See the show notes at https://bit.ly/4esmR1N and enjoy!

We're all about the Real-Time kernel, and so is Ubuntu, who is now offering it as an option for 22.04. Then there's the new UAlink specification for AMD and Intel accelerators, a trio of distro releases to cover, and the latest and greatest in kernel 6.10. For tips we have bartib for time tracking; a set of commands for auditing logins, system shutdowns, and restarts; and a recap of ping, ending with how to specify ipv4 or ipv6.
