LXer: Linux Kernel 4.9 Officially Released with Support for AMD Radeon SI/GCN 1.0 GPUs
Published at LXer:
As expected, today Linus Torvalds unleashed the final release of the highly anticipated Linux 4.9 kernel, a major update that introduces numerous exciting new features, updated drivers, and other under-the-hood improvements.
Not too many years after releasing a BASIC Interpreter on a paper tape that, "fortuitously for him, although he bitched about it at the time, 'got stolen,'" Bill Gates today finds himself supping with Warren Buffett and "doin' the genteel philanthropy thing with him and his missus," while Linus rings in yet another Yuletide with yet another Engineer's USENET Newsgroup post.
So, I ask you: "Who really 'won the game?'"
