Linux developers consider discontinuing support for 486 and other CPUs

Linux support for 486 processors

Chat

I am on the Devon and Cornwall Linux user group mailing list and also their matrix channel as zleap, it is better to ask there, that way others can answer too.

The Hubble Telescope has measured the size of our nearest Earth-sized exoplanet. The planet orbits the star LTT 1445A, which is part of a triple system of three red dwarf stars that is 22 light-years away in the constellation Eridanus.

A few updates from the world of Astronomy, these were published last week, just that my blog has lots of stuff scheduled.

Both the following are interesting:-

• Universe today:The Milky Way has Trapped the Large Magellanic Cloud With its Gravity. What Comes Next?
• STSCI Webb Reveals Early-Universe Prequel to Huge Galaxy Cluster

We can discuss further on science forums.

Just added this on 2/5/2023

In other news it is also #BlackHoleWeek, so if you head over to NASAs Black home basics page there is loads of useful information on the the subject. Be sure to follow NASA on the Fediverse too.

Something else found on the Fediverse. This was posted by Science Alert. The links should work from here too, if not you will need an account on a Mastodon instance. So lots of interesting things happening

I have started to watch the AlJazeera news channel, I am getting sick of the BBC, and to a point the other UK based news channels constantly going on about covid and ignoring other important events in the world, which if anything get a very brief mention. They seem incapable of putting out a broad range of news.

AlJazeera has some excellent coverage of what is going on in Kazakhstan

AlJazeera can be found on freeview just up from bbc news channel, and is well worth checking out. I am subscribed on Mastodon to a newsbot @aljazeera_english@newsbots.eu which federates news stories in to my stream.

They also do some excellent programming, for example there was a recent program looking at the history of the development of the spacesuit and this story was told by the granddaughter of the developer of the Apollo suit.

Just found this, so making a final post for today. These are some of the highlights in the world of Physics in 2021. Lots of things happened in 2021, so lets hope 2022 is equally as exciting.

I have added a link to the discourse forum and also a link to the Tuxiversity science thread, so you can discuss courses and other options for learning.

This looks like a really useful breakthrough and will allow more study of the magnetic field around earth at different times through out Earths history. and will help predict how the field may change in the future too.

This is an article [1] from Physics World. We now have the ability to take really detailed images of molecules. This is really important, if not rather complex but we have made huge progress in this. Should aid study of molecules and perhaps open up new fields of research.

Back in 1989 IBM made their logo from Xenon atoms [4]. So I guess this shows how much progress we have made since then.
