WSL2-Linux-Kernel
The source for the Linux kernel used in Windows Subsystem for Linux 2
The WSL2-Linux-Kernel repo contains the kernel source code and configuration files for the WSL2 kernel. If you discover an issue relating to WSL or the WSL2 kernel, please report it on the WSL GitHub project. It is not possible to report issues on the WSL2-Linux-Kernel project. Instructions for building an x86_64 WSL2 kernel with an Ubuntu distribution are provided. The number one way that we recommend you run Linux distributions is by installing Windows Terminal. Using Windows Terminal enables you to open multiple tabs or window panes to display and quickly switch between multiple Linux distributions or other command lines (PowerShell, Command Prompt, PowerShell, Azure CLI, etc). You can fully customize your terminal with unique color schemes, font styles, sizes, background images, and custom keyboard shortcuts. -

RichARCH
Creating a Rich experience to ARCH
RichARCH is designed to be a Simple Quick Pure path to Arch Linux with kickstart like automation features. One goal of the project is to only use packages in the basic Arch Linux repos by default with the option to install a few non-standard packages (like Pamac, Spotify, and Warp Terminal). Our hope is that this will help to make Arch Linux more approachable to individual and corporate users. Make sure to backup any data you wish to keep from the storage device you plan to use with the RichARCH installer. Details and installation info can be found at: https://download.sf.net/richarch/InstallAndInfo.pdf - or - https://sites.google.com/view/richarch Supports: - AMD / Nvidia drivers - Fully automated installs - LVM storage setup options - Multiple storage formats, including: BTRFS, EXT4, XFS Desktop Environments: - Budgie - Cinnamon - Cosmic - Cutefish - Enlightenment - Gnome - Hyprland - KDE - LXDE - Mate - XFCE -

Kernelloader
Run Linux on the Playstation 2
Kernelloader is a free bootloader for PS2 Linux and other Playstation 2 operating systems. Loading can be done by "Action Replay Media Player", by "memory card exploit", by "FMCB" or any other homebrew loading method. If you downloaded the latest Linux Live DVD, you need to run the online updater to be able to play Youtube videos. -

QP Real-Time Event Frameworks & Tools
Real-Time Event Frameworks based on active objects & state machines
QP real-time event frameworks (RTEFs) provide lightweight, modern, event-driven architecture based on asynchronous Active Objects (Actors) and Hierarchical State Machines. The matching QM model-based design tool and other host-based tools complement the QP frameworks by supporting graphical modeling, code generation, software tracing, and unit testing for event-driven embedded software. Visit https://www.state-machine.com for more information. The QP RTEFs can run on bare-metal microcontrollers, replacing a traditional RTOS. The frameworks contain a selection of built-in real-time kernels (RTOS kernels), such as the cooperative QV kernel, the preemptive non-blocking QK kernel, and the unique preemptive, dual-mode (blocking/non-blocking) QXK kernel. Native QP ports and ready-to-use examples are provided for ARM Cortex-M (M0/M0+/M3/M4/M7/M33/...) as well as other CPUs. The QP RTEFs can also work with many traditional RTOSes and General-Purpose OSes, such as Linux and Windows. -

unc0ver
The most advanced jailbreak tool
unc0ver is an advanced jailbreak tool for iOS 11.0 - 12.2. It's a jailbreak tool that stands out above the rest, as it it just one app that can jailbreak all firmwares. It's also got full-fledged Cydia and Substrate support, and Telesphoreo port for ARM64 devices. It can rejailbreak from the jailbroken state, offers options and utilities for the user, and many more. unc0ver doesn't share private data for diagnostics purposes, and has no inefficient local jailbreak server (jailbreakd daemon). It offers better system security, better performance and more efficient use of battery life. Switching from other jailbreaks to unc0ver is fairly easy and safe. Dedicated migration support ensures that you can make the switch without losing valuable data. -

stress-ng
This is the stress-ng upstream project git repository.
This is the stress-ng upstream project git repository. stress-ng will stress test a computer system in various selectable ways. It was designed to exercise various physical subsystems of a computer as well as the various operating system kernel interfaces. stress-ng was originally intended to make a machine work hard and trip hardware issues such as thermal overruns as well as operating system bugs that only occur when a system is being thrashed hard. Use stress-ng with caution as some of the tests can make a system run hot on poorly designed hardware and also can cause excessive system thrashing which may be difficult to stop. -

Zen Kernel
Zen Patched Kernel Sources
Zen Patched Kernel Sources. This is the top level of the kernel’s documentation tree. Kernel documentation, like the kernel itself, is very much a work in progress; that is especially true as we work to integrate our many scattered documents into a coherent whole. ARC processors are highly configurable and several configurable options are supported in Linux. Some options are transparent to software (i.e cache geometries, some can be detected at runtime and configured and used accordingly, while some need to be explicitly selected or configured in the kernel’s configuration utility. -
