Linux offers, forks. So many damn forks.
But original content? Not so much.

2/ This is why I have never been a fan of Linux, people should be writing their own OSs
As an aside, I found this #USENET thread with some familiar names from 1987 about porting Minix to the Atari - I assume that would have been the ST then.

1/ Just because, here's my LSI-11 desktop - It works, they used much better capacitors in those days.
Way back when, the LSI-11 was often used to teach people Operating Systems and Compiler Design, and in my CS degree in 1986 we'd fiddle with MINIX on these things, and deal with re-writing different low-level UNIX things. Life was much easier with only 50 instructions to work with.

Installing the Windows 11 2024 version via a CD or flash drive may cause it to reject any future updates. Microsoft is working on a fix.

Lesser-known alternatives to cooperative multitasking: passive-aggressive multitasking. "It's fine, I wasn't really planning to use the rest of that timeslice anyway, you can have it."
Just bought a 1 TB SSD to put 6 OSes on my #Thinkpad: Debian-Testing (#Gnome / #XFce), #Mint, #ElementaryOS, #POP_OS alpha, #Kubuntu or #Fedora KDE (haven't decided which one of the two), and if it works with it, #Haiku.
I'd normally install #FreeBSD too, but I don't see it working as well as a desktop.
I'll be booting them with #rEFInd instead of #grub (easier than dealing with its rather deprecated os-prober).
If you're considering a migration from the soon sunsetting Windows 10 to Linux and you're looking for a way to test the open-source operating system, here are four options.

After being here in the Fediverse for a while, and learning from so many others (seriously, no other "social" medium has come close), one thing has become abundantly clear:
I am so glad I've never run Windows here at home. SO glad. Even throughout my career, I've rarely had to use Windows.
