AntiX-Core is what you need. I found a ‘stable LTS and true minimalist system’ without dbus, elogin, and systemd. You can check the installation here from anticapitalista. Create this from VM, snapshot, and install on your device.

my pleasure…

Luckily Xubuntu did the trick on that old laptop

yeah, because ubuntu have more stable repo server than antix. but if i comparison two of them in power consumption, antix used less power 3x in ram than xubun.

Mirror repo

Maybe you can experiment Croc if you want simplest way.

AntiX wouldn’t let me install any packages or update. It would keep telling me I needed to wait a few hours to access the repos. I did like how you could swap between several desktop environments easily.

Just manual change the repo and problem solved…

And I need to clarify this because AntiX IMO, under category Permacomputing for low power consumption without too much sacrificing the function than others [in my experiment].

Thank you so much for this!

can you tell me your testing with bookshelf? really curious with the ui and your opinion on it.

+1 for that Thinkpad

Buku with extension Bukubrow is already good for me to have offline bookmark manager, flexibel function on CLI or browser. With Archivebox combination in my Librewolf reading my archive website.

+1!

This is very good topic, thank you so much!

If Google and Qualcomm already develop RISC-V on smartwatch in 2023, then why not on laptop in 2024? Ohh… of course it’s because trade war chips tension that halt the development. But still… optimistic on this is not wrong either IMO. Just because “it’s far from” doesn’t mean it cannot move fast…

+1 for this. My tech hope in 2024 is… “RISC-V has reach the perfect system for consumer level” like I installed Debian on my thinkpad laptop, without any error…

I’m really curious from this, is there any perfomance impact if we change to Libreboot? if so (boost windows performance at least up to 10%) then I’ll take it for my audio plugins set live. Really cool to see T440p Libreboot-ing here!

I think you misunderstood or… don’t get the point “worst language” part from what he said. My point come from his point who’s more expert. If you think like that, what can I say? and I’m not trying convience you to understand too…

Back to your knowledge and understanding. But at least for me, I agree with him that rust is ‘hype-like’ or ‘pop culture’ thing. Like cyrpto (he said in ask session), but from technical perspective, that I personally understand. I just lost the source to explain this, but it’s up to you…

You can watch this https://media.ccc.de/v/37c3-11811-writing_secure_software

I just found myself that C is the worst programming language as many people say, but the security and simplicity is more than any language in security. Thank you so much for this!

Why not jumping directly to Podman if you want more resilent system from beginning? Just my opinion
