The parts in
yellow are about Linux:
Summary: The Linux Foundation has divested from Linux and decided to instead do openwashing PR for companies that oppose Linux and its licence (the Board of the Foundation is dominated by Microsoft with 3 out of twenty odd Board members having a Microsoft affiliation that is direct, not counting indirect affiliation). Linux.com (i.e. the Foundation's link dump) has just promoted the new newsletter (for this month). In 4 very long 'pages' the kernel is mentioned no more than 3 times (see yellow in the screenshots; "Watch the replay! Linux Kernel Debugging Tricks of the Trade Mentor: Joel Fernandes, Staff Software Engineer, Google"; "Watch the replay! Kernel Tracing Using eBPF Mentor: Vandana Salve, Independent Linux Kernel Consultant").
