I really wish new GNU/Linux distribution were titled as such:
Discover Slitaz, An extremely light weight GNU/Linux distro
Discover GNU/Linux Slitaz, An extremely light distro
Something like that.
You can drop the GNU part if that is not your thing.
I am always elated to learn about new operating systems.
I am always disappointed when it tuns out to be yet another distro.
Now this one looks interesting and I will play with it in a VM.
I just get my expectations get high when it says new operating system
- VHRanger 5y agoNot everyone is a Linus Torvalds or Terry Davis (say what you will about TempleOS, what he managed to build alone was awesome)
- anta40 5y agoWhat Terry Davis did wasn't just writing an OS, but also developed his own C dialect and the compiler (HolyC). In a way, I think that guy was even a greater genius than Linus.
- ThinkBeat 5y agoYes. I am a great admirer of his. Had the world been a more tolerant, supportive, and friendly place I wonder what he would have achieved. Just for him to have an easier life would have been enough though.

- khaledh 5y ago+1. IMO the term "operating system" should be reserved for significantly original kernel/userland code.
- convolvatron 5y agotechnical terminology has been pretty largely devalued across the board. do you remember what 'implement an SMTP server' used to mean? so fine, words change, but now there is no way to refer to actually writing the source for a compliant MTA. distributed systems developer? senior software engineer? bare metal?
