          “Brave Hero from Finland, you’ve been struck by a bus and are going to reincarnate into–”

          “No I wasn’t. That bus CHASED ME DOWN two alleys, over a fire hydrant, into, and out of a Starbucks. It did NOT hit me. You just summoned me here.”

          “Err… anyway, this world needs a hero to–”

          “Write hardware drivers? A kernel module? Some inline assembly?”

          "Err… the demon lord… er… "

          “DID YOU EVEN MAIL THE LIST? Hah… Okay. Does this world have logic gates of any kind? I need to get this knocked out as soon as possible. I’ve got the entirety of the bcachefs patchset to review before 6.7 is in release.”

              Linus teaches them all best practices and then takes a 2 week hiatus from kernel dev to write a tool that defeats the demon lord.
