([Linux Kernel] 6 Hours Ago Linux 6.13 Over)


Greg Kroah-Hartman has released a few new Linux kernel stable point releases today for Easter and also capping off the Linux 6.13 kernel cycle in the process.

[1]Linux 6.13.12 is out today with the latest round of bug/regression fixes. Linux 6.13.12 also marks the last planned version of the Linux 6.13 series. Linux 6.13 is now considered end-of-life with users encouraged to upgrade to Linux 6.14.

With that said, [2]Linux 6.14.3 is also out with dozens of bug/regression fixes. Many fixes backported from Linux 6.15 Git and an assortment of other minor fixes that have accumulated in recent days.

[3]Linux 6.12.24 was also released today as the newest bug-fix point release for the current Linux 6.12 Long Term Support (LTS) series.

Meanwhile due for release later today is the Linux 6.15-rc3 test kernel as we work toward the stable Linux 6.15 kernel release around the end of May.

A grade school teacher was asking students what their parents did
for a living. "Tim, you be first," she said. "What does your mother do
all day?"
Tim stood up and proudly said, "She's a doctor."
"That's wonderful. How about you, Amie?"
Amie shyly stood up, scuffed her feet and said, "My father is a
mailman."
"Thank you, Amie," said the teacher. "What about your father, Billy?"
Billy proudly stood up and announced, "My daddy plays piano in a
whorehouse."
The teacher was aghast and promptly changed the subject to geography.
Later that day she went to Billy's house and rang the bell. Billy's father
answered the door. The teacher explained what his son had said and demanded
an explanation.
Billy's father replied, "Well, I'm really an attorney. But how do
you explain a thing like that to a seven-year-old child?"
