Why do people still read shit like "THE Hacker News"? It's not even the real HN, just some idiot trying to add in some legitimacy to what they publish, although they might be true (but most probably copied from elsewhere).
I still prefer Hacker News (the legit one).
Sorry just saw it and felt to notify LET.
Calm down. Linux kernel 3.8 and higher. A lot of us are running much older kernels than that.
No actual citations too, for those numbers they're boasting.
5.1.1, not even running 3.8+.
