HAY: How Are You? 2026-08 Edition How's August for you?

Greetings everyone! Salutations. So, I was talking with Snake about it amd we've decided that it would be best if /chat/ had a home owner's association sort of approach when it comes to posting on ponychan.

We will now have a committee where users will be able to vote who is apart of the board and who is not. We feel this is the best way moving forward to ensure quality posts, and that everyone's need is key within the community!

In addition, there will be a new set of rules enforced in addition to our current set for ponychan's global policy:

Policy in the past has always been to err on the side of lenience. In so doing, however, we moved the goalposts too far, and have gone past lenience and into negligence. Effective immediately, a new enforcement policy will be in place: one that is simple and easy to understand.

Moderators will be given much more autonomy to act on the rules. The rules themselves will be vastly simplified, as you shall soon see. The first rules offense a user makes will generally be considered with a warning in thread, publicly visible. The second rules offense a user makes will generally be considered a short ban. And the third rules offense and after will invite any ban, up to and including a permaban, that a staff member feels is fit.

Please note that this is a guideline, and that a moderator will have leeway to even permaban on first offense, depending on the situation, from here on out. Moderators will be much more proactive in enforcing the rules, and though we shall still err in favor of leniency, we shall be taking more firm action towards rule breaking behavior.

The New Rules
We are proposing a new set of rules that are far simpler to read and comprehend. Instead of adding increasing complexity to the rules in an attempt to make them airtight, more responsibility shall be given to each user to act in accordance not only with the letter of the rules, but the spirit of the rules as well.

Please show civility and respect towards other users, towards their posts, and towards their threads;
Please do not post content which is of a trollishly poor quality typical of “sh*tposting”;
Please do not engage in or incite aggressive fighting, name-calling, or other dramatic behavior;
Please do not engage in or encourage spamming, raiding, or “doxing;”
Please do not post any sexually explicit content, gore, or extreme violence in any form or depiction. Risque or suggestive content is allowed in moderation;
All content that is considered illegal in the United States is expressly prohibited on Ponychan.co;
Content that is of dubious legality or ethicality may be removed at a staff member's discretion;
Rules are subject to change at any time, and may be enforced retroactively. The rules are guidelines to preserve the spirit of the site, and users are expected to behave in accordance with that spirit.

Sleep well I wish you all a restfull night's sleep.

Got any recommendations?
Any new acquisitions?
What are you reading today?
Share it all right here!
===========
Today's featured image is my most recent acquisitions. Comics count! They're still reading!

>Recommendations of the Day:
Vainqueur the Dragon. A great story that parodies the classic issekai. Follows our hero Victor who has absolutely atrocious luck, falling in the clutches of the titular Vainqueur...
Fortunately he is willing to spare his life. Provided he becomes His Majesty's personal minion.
It's also in Webcomic form!

DIY Thread Been thinking of having one for a while now, to be honest.
Current project makes a good excuse.
I'll have to keep you guys posted on it, but I picked up a shop from a friend of mine, and am trying to deck out the rear portion to be a solid 'office' space. That way I get the best of both worlds.

The only downside is it's irritably expensive. Gonna cost me a good 600$ just for the walls, let alone a simple roof, insulation, drywall...
At least I already have the electrical. I might want to do some extra stuff with it, but it's all pretty decent that I don't feel desperate for it.
I'm hoping I can get it done this month. Might be a little bit of a rush job, but I'll be sure to snag some photos for you all while I'm at it.

New music thread I couldn't find the old one. Post what you're currently listening to.

Steam hardware from Valve It's happening!
Steam Hardware Announcement

Linux: Russia. Russians are banned. What does RU think? Russians were banned from linux development some time ago. Free code from Russians is not welcomed.

Additionally Hackers are not permitted to contribute to linux anymore, essentially. It is fully a commercially developed project. Linus doesn't even do any work on it really, according to his statements.

So It went from
100pct hackers + russians
Then at some point to 90pct hackers+ intel USB3 driver from (?Sarah Sharp).
To
50pct commercial programmers/ 50 percent hackers.
To
90 percent commercial programmers including alot from microsoft, to 10 percent hackers.
To Code of Conduct, Russians BANNED, the last of the hacker code removed (russian code in the form of the first journaling file system for linux, which what working when it was deleted)
100 percent commercial code, Zero percent hackers, and hackers dissed as shit programmers. Russians dissed too.

What happened?
Also since NO hackers are allowed in Linux Kernel anymore: why can't anyone actually fork it? What's the hold up.
Linux is going Intel-only with rust : there isn't a way forward for any other architecture without a fork.
Linux lost Pax/Grsecurity/Gradm years ago.

Is there just mass censorship and no one can get together to fork it? What happened to the hacker community?
In the past there would have been a fork right when we lost PaX. To continue it on.
What the hell happened?

It's like it'a captured and no one can do shit.
Then people come in "THEN FORK IT YOURSELF"
Then when actual hackers try to fork something: anyone mentioning it is banned on all the forums. (ex: xlibre or anyone anti-systemd back when the CoC was put in every single opensource project)

6.11 was the last russian included linux kernel
What do Russians, mysoginists, and hackers think of being banned from opensource development worldwide?

RMS wants sources: Anyone remeber Linux dissing Hackers code more recently? In the past (1990s, 2000-??) hackers were the star of the show in Linux kernel programming.

However some time ago the quote became
"all 1990 hacker code has been removed from the linux kernel".

prior to that it was
"most kernel code is now contributed by paid programmers from companies"

and prior to that it was "Linux is a hacker project for hackers by hackers, revolution OS"

Now hackers just aren't permitted to contribute to the Linux Kernel. RMS want's direct quotes and citations.

I remeber seeing them, remember the colour of the websites, some were LKML, some were others, some were slashdot etc.

But I don't remeber exactly where and by who.
Anyone remeber?

Today there's NO hacker code in the linux kernel.
Not allowed. Verboten. Code of Conduct violation (one way or another).
You can't get a word in edgewise.
And architectures are being removed, power buttons crash the kernel at the slightest touch when newer kernels are used on older machines, Rust is making the Linux Kernel intel only.

And we're told "fucking fork it yourself" "also you are BANNED for discussing forking linux, transphobe!" etc. You know the drill.

But if it is desired that what once was our operating system continue to be used on something other than intel-only Rust-daycare: that's the only way. Linux has to be forked.
It is a commercial project now.
With no room for hackers.
It was once a hacker / hobbiest project;
Linus simply betrayed everyone who ever helped him: and he has betrayed the hacker cause.

Remeber when cool things were always added to Linux? I do. Or developed by other hackers for it (PaX, Grsecurity, GRADM) and kept it secure? I do.

It's ALL gone now.
Our thing has been taken away from us.
Hackers are just dissed and shamed now by the commercial devs of the Linux kernel. Hackers are mocked that their code isn't good enough to be included.Celebrations are started that the last hacker-era code:ReiserFS: which never broke and was NOT broken when it was removed. 100kbfree

/chan/ is the new hot board.

CRBA update I am the CRBA admin and I'm back with an update. A few months ago, the CRBAchan was raided. I had some issues with restoring the database and haven't had the time to fix it. Well until now! I've restored the CRBAchan and am looking to make improvements to the CRBA site.

https://ib.crba.tw
https://crba.tw

Specifically, one thing (or rather, a category of things) I've been looking to add is some kind of immersive community experiences that would allow you to experience with essence of CRBA. What I picture CRBA as is this beautiful, over powering play innocence and a feeling of an infinitely far away past nostalgia. I picture a beautifully ethereal and deeply spiritually powerful and atmospheric beauty and aether. I want to create some way of capturing this to a degree with an interactive community experience. I would think that the site would have to be very themed (i.e. intricately decorated) to accomplish this.

When was THE LAST TIME you laughed hard?

RMS requests list of Linux removed architectures Dear free software people on /g/ :
RMS would like a complete list of all architectures removed from Linux.

I gave him a partial list of the removals from 2018 and 2025 but don’t have the full list and can’t find it on google search.


And asking lunduke wont work as I don’t pay him (and he hates some great free software people, RMS included)


Can you do it?
I know not your personal army;
But I can’t find more than 10 architectures Linus has ripped out an I know there are more since I remember stuff being removed over the years from the wholly commercial kernel that used to be written by code hackers.


He says he can’t do anything without the list
