Re: May 2025 Screenshot Thread

Really liking this LOC-OS distro.  I have it installed on 3 labtops so far.  If only more debian distros were like this one.  Still cant beat the Arch distros I have installed though.

Interesting. It's antiX or Debian based?

"Loc-OS is a lightweight, antiX-based Linux distribution with LXDE as the default desktop environment and without the systemd service manager; it uses SysV init to manage the startup and shutdown of services instead. The distribution is designed to be resource-friendly, with low memory consumption and therefore suitable for older or less powerful hardware. The project's goal is to provide a usable and functional desktop experience on older machines while minimizing resource demands."

It's based on Debian stable. The project description hasn't been updated.

It's another Debian without systemd. I am curious to know if they re-build debian packages to eliminate the systemd dependencies or mirror devuan packages directly to fr.loc-os.com.

Easy, bro. I saw somebody stated it's based on Debian in the reviews, so I asked you yesterday. I downloaded the live image and checked it myself today.

Re: May 2025 Screenshot Thread

You're not doing it right. You have to add another friendly term for someone at the end in italics, to indicate disdain, like this...

I'm not your bro, pal!

In all seriousness, please don't be hostile here.

I am not being hostile.  If I was everyone would know it.  And most likely would not be able to handle it.
So, quit trying to be a badazz.  It makes you look like an azz wipe.

Hostility aka ad-hominem attacks is specifically forbidden by the BL Rules. And we do have ways of handling it.
