Kernel 7.1. series drops support for Intel 486DX (37 years olds)Kernel 7.2. series drops support for AMD Elan32 (30 year old)https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-Elan-Linux-Driver-Removal>Supporting those vintage chips which don't have internal Time Stamp Counter "TSC" instruction are becoming a burden...Support removed to streamline Linux kernel.Among the CPUs impacted by this latest change is the >AMD K5 as well as various Cyrix processor models (all Cyrix ever made). The K5 was AMD's first entirely in-house designed processor that was first introduced in 1996 to counter the Intel Pentium CPU. But now its not useable in Linux.>Tom's Hardware remembers the K5 "wasn't a very popular processor as it arrived late, then offered lackluster performance in the competitive environment it joined." >It was cheap though.

>>534876217why are you against using old cpu
>>534876251Why don't you post this stuff in your own imageboard?
>>534876045Listen nigger, only governments and military would still use systems that old and everything that affects them is good.Fuck kikes and their slaves.
>>534876045it's usable on Linux, just use an older kernel, lol.
>>534876045Linux is not much different from Windows these days. Some things just should’nt be (((updated))) but code niggers has to clout chase and be 5he smartest nigger in the room every year. It’s just free of charge thats it. Not actually free
>>534876353I am permanently banned from:-Finnish general image boards-Finnish bullettin boards that are about computers-Finnish general forums concerning whatever topicin addition:-Facebook ban-Reddit ban-Tiktok ban
>>534876886>i got banned from 109 forums>it's not my fault
>>534876045Those CPUs are so outdated that they're basically useless nowadays. They're only useful if you want to run old media or text files disconnected from the internet. But Linux will still run them, not the latest's distros.
>>534876836refusing to update has saved me from major 0days at least three times in 2026 alone.
>>534876045Honestly who the fuck cares? Why is this a thread on /pol/ of all boards on this god forsaken website?>>/g/
>>534876045I bet you're not really a /g/ or a lainchan lurker.Get an older kernel or if you're lazy get a distro with an older kernel.mxlinuxantixlinuxOr here :https://distrowatch.com/search.php?category=Old+Computers#simple

>>534876886Ha ha ha, good job, but why though. ?

>>534876045I remember playing SimAnt on and old 486, those were the days
>>534876045>486DX>AMD Elan32limitation of 64MB of memoryWhy waste resources maintaining support for computers that can't even run the kernel?
>>534876045That woman is mentally unstable.
>>534876886lol, what've you been posting youlittle asshole?

>>534876045Sorry I see asian girl thats alt and I just get into the goon mindeset hnnnng
Probably for the best. This shit doesn't belong in mainline. If you still have ancient garbage, fork an older version. I wish Linus was remove i686 as well.
>>534876886Why?And why not just reset your router to get a new IP address, and get some throwaway email addresses and maybe a burner cellphone SIM?
>>534877136Operating systems are the "two bombs and a satellite" of the modern era. This is inherently political whether you want to deal with it or not.
>>534876886I wonder why.
>>534876045so just ignore and use old version of linux
>>534879089Yeah, I'm rather sad about that. I have two perfectly good 500mhz boxes in my storage unit that I haven't cleaned out yet, and they are basically useless now because I can buy a minipc for $200 that outperforms them by at least 5X.Then again, the 128MB of DRAM in them is probably worth half a million bucks right now.
>>534876045>Lip piercingSlut needs correction
>>534876251because you can compile kernels earlier than xyz version for it? because it has 5 bytes of ram and there's pretty much no tasks left for it?
>>534878903This. My heart goes out to old tech enthusiasts but stop holding the rest of us back.
>>534876045What sort of situation is that woman in, she seems somewhat malnourished, maybe psychotic, maybe drug addicted, maybe paranoid in some extreme emotional psychosis.Honestly I do not use linux, I do not see a reason to use it if I had the technical knowledge I might do some stuff with the CMD; but I do not really know that much at the moment.
I only have one computer, if I had several that when things get fun.
If you had four computers, open a CMD on each one think about it.
Understand the different DNS stuff, and the subnet stuff; and the flow of packets.
>>534878178(((They))) never explain why
>>534876045>cyrix processorsSo you're saying if I want to fry an egg, I'll have to stop updating my kernel? Don't make me buy a hot plate. I was using my Cyrix 6x86 to run Doom II and cook dinner.
>>534876353Ursula wants our own digital sovereignty. Good to know, I am a citizen of Europe.Did you see them forcing this small German region to use Linux in public administration because they want to create feedback to plug into Claude Code and create a super Linux that will surpass Microsoft ecosystem?
>>534879089how?you need modern computer on idle spends more energy that 486 to properly emulate it than 486 itself
>>534876886Thank you for posting. European computer science sovereignty is a great interest of politics academic circles. Ursula wants our own palantir.
>>534876045What is the name of this streamer?

i still remember my excitement while installing a 486dx4 120mhz cpu

If you're getting tired of talking to shadow bots and same-shit-spam agitprop algo bubble, you were on the right trail but you just needed a snap-out-of-it evoker word, anchoring word "Black Sun" - There. You've just broke out of the trance hypnosis and found your true self. Oops you're alone now, sorry but what do? you should just start building your own breakaway communities or if you cba you can join my SimpleX chat :https://smp17.simplex.im/g#Dxe8q2q7F6os3d6z5HNHkPNEsbaJjrneZuXm8pIT8_oDesktop/Terminal app : https://simplex.chat/downloads/>Inb4 : “muh you glow”, “I’m not clicking that link nigga”, "muh memeflaggot", "Discord trannies", "Where's my Trump chat?", "Where's my Kamala chat?" Nope. You’re the demoralization shill. I got bad news for you. It’s only going to get worse from now on. If you want actual anon discussion - talk about history & geopolitics, esoteric political pattens, 'insider here' posts, financial predictions, privacy tech stuff, non-pozzed philosophy and literture, while at the same time some banters and shitposts allowed, places like clearweb img boards are no longer some sort of isolated layer where we can laugh at normiefags together
