Bcachefs may be headed out of the kernel

news.ycombinator.com Posted June 2026-03-12 23:32:10

Bcachefs may be headed out of the kernel The history of the bcachefs filesystem in the kernel has been turbulent, most recently with Linus Torvalds refusing a pull request for the 6.16-rc3 release. Torvalds has now pulled the code in question, but also said: I think we'll be parting ways in the 6.17 merge window. You made it very clear that I can't even question any bug-fixes and I should just pull anything and everything. Honestly, at that point, I don't really feel comfortable being involved

Microplastics are the latest hidden hazard worry for the world -- and now they've even been found in chewing gum. UCLA researchers have found that every time we chew gum, microplastics are released directly into our mouths. In addition to that, a new study published in Chemistry for Life tested 10 chewing gum brands and found every single one contained microplastics. This was found to be the case with both natural and synthetic varieties. A gram of gum releases around 100 microplastics on averag

The Sets of ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Look, Well, Fantastic

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-03-17 18:45:37

The decision to set The Fantastic Four: First Steps in a retro, 1960s-inspired world couldn’t have come easy. For one, it meant the entire film would take place in a multiverse away from the traditional Marvel Cinematic Universe. Also, it meant the production would have to build all of these sets from the ground up. We still don’t know much about the multiversal madness of Fantastic Four, but in a new video just released by Marvel, we do know about its sets. Director Matt Shakman, along with pr

And if June's sizzling heat waves are any preview of summer's dog days, you're gonna need more than good vibes and a flickering citronella candle to make it through.
