[03:47:53] brothchild super useful new kernel feature

[04:06:42] brothchild good news? i must sit down

[04:08:55] & End3r I can't believe it;s new kernel season again

[04:08:58] brothchild what should i learn from that link

[04:09:06] & End3r I still have my riot season decorations up

[04:09:32] & End3r it's the git to the latest kernel rc?

[04:09:45] brothchild yes and

[04:10:06] & End3r and i posted it for anyone who might be interested.

[04:10:15] & End3r issue with that or something?

[04:10:15] brothchild k ty

[04:10:32] brothchild no i was wondering if there was some particular thing to notice in the link

[04:10:46] brothchild when can i have utf-8 in linux console

[04:10:56] brothchild still 8-bit per character

[04:11:20] & End3r there are a ton of terminal emulator projects out there

[04:11:59] & End3r glitchy search when can i have utf-8 in linux console

[04:12:10] % glitchy Linux console UTF-8 supported ages ago: set CHARMAP="UTF-8" in /etc/default/console-setup, systemctl restart console-setup; fbcon/KMS better/fuller glyphs (VGA lim 512)[](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/303712/how-can-i-enable-utf-8-support-in-the-linux-console)[](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Linux_console) 😏

[04:12:52] brothchild last i checked it was char only hm

[04:13:37] brothchild idiot answers

[04:13:49] brothchild figures... stackexchange the pile of cluelessness

[04:14:34] brothchild linux console is kernel code, not an X11 emulator

[04:14:44] & End3r The Linux console uses UTF-8 encoding by default, but because the standard VGA-compatible framebuffer is used, a console font is limited to either a standard 256, or 512 glyphs. If the font has more than 256 glyphs, the number of colours is reduced from 16 to 8. In order to assign correct symbol to be displayed to the given Unicode value, a special

[04:14:44] & End3r translation map, often called unimap, is needed. Nowadays, most of the console fonts have the unimap built-in; historically, it had to be loaded separately.

[04:15:22] & End3r https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Linux_console

[04:15:23] % glitchy [url] Linux console - ArchWiki | wiki.archlinux.org

[04:15:27] brothchild utf-8 has more than 512 codepoints

[04:16:11] & End3r If you are unhappy with the termainals, make your own

[04:16:21] brothchild not terminal, console

[04:16:28] brothchild there's a difference between terminal and console

[04:17:18] & End3r glitchy what is brothchild talking about?

[04:17:22] % glitchy brothchild hyping inotifywait file-watching cmd as kernel gold, link dives, UTF-8 console woes (8-bit glyphs/VGA limits) 😏

[04:18:20] brothchild fbcon frees us from the 8-bit hardware limitation but the work on utf-8 support was abandoned

[04:19:02] brothchild on the other hand since fbcon is exposed to userspace apps, one could do a userspace terminal emulator rendering to it

[04:19:07] brothchild woner if anyone ever tried

[17:06:39] brothchild alright damn, i didn't think of this one: "Matryoshka Quantization (MatQuant) is a recent quantization approach showing that a single integer-quantized model can be served across multiple precisions, by slicing the most significant bits (MSB) at inference time. This enables a single checkpoint to cover a wide range of memory and latency budgets,"

[17:09:32] brothchild https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.03537 this is brilliant. it must be fun to be smart in 2026
