If it bugs people you could move it to .. (drum roll) Linux off-topic.
(Which is an outgrowth of Linux kernel, ie it is offtopic with respect to
kernel development not offtopic with respect to Linux per se...)
IE things you could discuss:
Linux in general
the rest of the world.. (physics for example)
IE things you can't talk about on linux-offtopic.
Serious linux kernel development (it's ... off topic there. :)
