Linus Torvalds does not enjoy giving talks, but he does consent to
the occasional on-stage conversation with Dirk Hohndel at Linux
Foundation events. The pair held the 30th of their fire-less fireside
chats during a keynote session on May 20, at the 2026 Open
Source Summit North America. Topics included 3D printing, guitar
pedals, the recent 7.1-rc4 release of the kernel, and Torvalds’s
complicated relationship with AI tooling.
