Linux 7.1 started phasing out support for Intel's 37-year-old i486 processor. Linux 7.2 removed drivers for the old AMD Elan 32-bit systems on a chip.

And now some i586 and i686 class processors are being removed, reports Phoronix:

Кремниевый король: Как NVIDIA заложила фундамент нейросетевой революции

Как компания, чьи чипы изначально предназначались для отрисовки полигонов в видеоиграх, стала главным бенефициаром ИИ-революции и пробила потолок капитализации в $5 трлн? Это не просто история удачного стечения обстоятельств или криптобума. В этой статье мы разберем инженерную анатомию монополии NVIDIA: от едва не обанкротивших стартап «квадратных» полигонов в чипе NV1 до многомиллиардной ставки на платформу CUDA, которая превратилась в самый надежный вендор-лок современной индустрии.
