the main thing is that it’s an upstream problem. the linux kernel is used in nuclear missiles. if you want to stay on that kernel you have to take what you are given. in your own organisation you can at least try to change things.
If he resigned only now, he didn’t resign before. What is there to check? That is common sense. Linus allowed LLM use and he was fine with Debian building on it. After all, all LLM use is literal fascism in his eyes.
He didn’t leave the Linux-based OS for Linus Torvalds himself stating a similar policy for the Linux kernel before Debian did.
Debian has a history of maintaining ancient kernels. But it’s hard to believe that he assumed Debian to just fork Linux…
didn’t he? have you checked?

Idk anything about this…but here is my Google results

Don’t think golden dome is actually implemented, though just some trump delusion…but apparently this Redhawk Linux is used in…

This is an educated guess but I think the entire US nuclear arsenal is so old that it predates Linux entirely.
Nuclear missiles probably run vxworks or another rtos, not linux
FOSS nukes when?
