Lemmy is drowning in duplicate posts about Linux's new Documentation/process/threat-model.rst file and additions to Documentation/process/security-bugs.rst which were added in this commit: same story, same commit, but different URLs, post titles, and human submitters. Posts linking a phoronix article about the commit, posts linking Linus' LKML email about it, posts linking The Register's article about Linus' LKML email, posts linking a gamingonlinux article about the email about the commit - and now, this post linking a screenshot of a mastodon post containing a screenshot of [part of] the diff of the commit. Lemmy moderators have now formalized the obvious: one post per this topic per community is enough. Most of these posts aren't even good summaries of the situation anyway: For instance, this one says "1 CVE, 0 patches" which is not accurate at all.

Are they trying to help or hurt.

PISS on everything to mark their territory ruin everything they can't own or defile

As the others said, some are just there for clout chasing with easy "wins", but in a talk by the curl maintainer who faces this same issue he thinks they are actually trying to help, they just don't have the know how and skills to understand what they are actually doing.

I was going to point that, initally, isn't it a good sign that obviously many people are concerned about the security of an open source project like linux? Since I believe in humans in general (stupid me I guess) this news isn't necessarily a bad sign in time of US big tec dropping the mask and becoming outright evil and abusive.

Either glory seeking or legitimately trying to help.

Had several people feel like while they don't know how to help, they could at least expend their tokens..

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
