news.ycombinator.com Posted June 2025-08-31 21:32:10

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

A “grey” matter I had just about finished moving into my new home in the winter of 2020, when all of a sudden - my right Achilles started feeling pretty sore!

Is an Intel N100 or N150 a better value than a Raspberry Pi?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-01 16:08:24

tl;dr: it depends. About one year ago, I bought an Intel N100 mini PC (specifically the GMKtec N100 NucBox G3) and compared it to the Raspberry Pi 5 8GB. A year later, and we have a newer $159 16GB version of that mini PC with a slightly-faster Intel N150, and a new 16GB Raspberry Pi 5. I re-ran all my benchmarks, and this time compared like-for-like, installing Linux on the Mini PC.
