There has been discussions with-in the development circles regarding a potential integration of Web3 functionalities into the mainline kernel. Exploring the feasibility of incorporating features like decentralised application (dApp) support and smart contract execution directly into the kernel.
Early proposals suggest leveraging the NPUs in new processor families for secure on chain data validation within the kernel space. This means better fraud protection by validating signatures while booting up using the zk-SNARK cryptographic proof.
The developers at Linux Fundaytion notes that this plan requires extensive re-architecture of the codebase. They say that after this, Linux would only run supported systems with dedicated NPU and will simply refuse to boot on other systems, making a significant breakthrough in system security.
The timeline for the proposed changes have already been laid out. With chip manufactures already including dedicated NPUs, developers now have more freedom than ever. Linux communities have always welcomed Web3 technologies like NFT, dApp games etc. and with the kernel integration, Linux will be making a huge leap into the future. One developer put it aptly, “Imagine running my own ETH node directly within Linux kernel.”
Is this rage bait of tech bro bait?
Got me good
I’m just like wtfuuuhuuhuuuuuu… Oh wait…
😅
Too bad, its April 2nd for me lol
You got me good :(
Ok how thought the link was going to lead to a rick roll
Can someone fill me in on why this is funny
I hope its April 1 for you. Read the source.
I raged read all the way through until it hit me just after I was finished 😂
There’s only one day of the year when you can dupe me this well. Well done
Angry update.
At least the source wasn’t a Rick roll
Rage-read until the third paragraph lol
Damn you :-)
