   Is it possible that some of these bugs were already exploited by governments? And AI might help use close of that kind of thing? (And expose other kinds of things , in a kind of AI arms race?)

      Will everyone chill the F out for a minute?

      These get released every few weeks. Tons of CVEs. If a kernel developer farts in the forest, does anyone hear it?

      August saw separate Debian kernel updates released four days apart. Does anyone even reboot that often?

      I have three kernels installed over the last 45 days or so and I probably missed a few.

         Regarding the fart question, it depends on the audio driver and the underlying codec. While you would think “free as in beer” would make for truly resonant flatulence, only truly letting loose (plus a Bic lighter) brings real enlightenment.
