Should be... You're a Linux user, name every distro... Debian, Arch, Fedora.

Those aren't even close to all.

Here's a couple more i can think of right now (following your pattern of only base distros):

LFS, Chimera, AerynOS, Alpine, Gentoo, Guix, NixOS, Slackware

Knoppix is a fun one :) Didn't know it was independent.

It's been a long time, so I could be misremembering.

If that's the case, then Tiny Core or Damn Small to replace it.

Yeah, I was afraid to respond similarly thinking shit, I'll start naming rare or abandoned distros if I do. Linux dude since slackware make menu_config;make modules modules_install

I guess linux from scratch is questionable. But, these aren't abandoned tho, slackware still maintained.

is the oldest distribution that is still maintained.

rpm and dpkg are also programs that are used for a number of local operations.

Can't we just build it into systemd?

Vi/Emacs, and get off my lawn

Vim: quick and easy

Emacs: properly decent programming language in the configs, supports Vim bindings via Evil, Org-mode as the ultimate notes app

I didn't even mention a single distro and I''m literally using slackware right now, so no idea why you replied like this.

The joke is that most distros are based on Debian.

I prefer to just rawdog debian stable

Understood. Only thing I could think of is that interpreted my make menu_config line as referencing linux from scratch.

Fun fact: In the 90s, everyone had to compile a kernel using menu_config or menuconfig configurator. It didn't matter if you ran red hat or slackware or debian, they all had you configure your kernel on some form back then.

We would often download the latest kernel overnight from a bbs or mirror site beforehand days before installing because you often needed the latest kernel to get your hardware working.

Anyway, no worries. I was just confused by your response.

I wanted to say that as well, but then I remembered...
Ubuntu also comes from Debian!

Arguably they're sort of converging with all the nvim stuff out there. I said vi to be cute but I actually use LazyVim

I use Doom Emacs, so we're both in glass houses here. I love Lua because it's fast as fuck, but it's militantly imperative, which is a big bummer. In comparison, Lisp still has a lot to teach a novice-ish programmer. Fennel is the best of both worlds, I guess.

A friend of mine made a revamped one. Not sure if it is the same project.

Doing it for the memes. I love that man.
