What is computing minimalism?

Reminder that OpenBSD is lacking the following things:
>A robust filesystem such as ZFS, btrfs, or HAMMER2
>Any kind of journaling FS
>SSD TRIM
>NFSv4
>Support for more than one core on various parts of the OS. The firewall, pf, is confirmed to be one of these parts, although there may be more.
>802.11ac networking

>Broadcom wireless
>Bluetooth
>WINE
>LUKS/dm-crypt

>Proper virtualization (vmd/vmm is awful compared to KVM+QEMU or even Virtualbox)

Oh boy here we go again

Fuck I meant *she*

Friendly reminder that OP is a huge faggot for not putting Slackware on the list.

Slackware installer literally lets you do a Linux From Scratch configuration.

I had trouble getting the wireless to work. When I tried reinstalling, it kept failing even though I installed it fine the day before. I might try it again on a spare computer, but OpenBSD was easier to install and configuring the wireless was easier, so I'm sticking with OpenBSD.

Alpine is fine, its used a lot in Docker containers and it's also very usable for low ram servers. Shit on desktop tho.

I installed it yesterday and had trouble too, but I managed to solve. What was your problem?

Why isn't Slackware on the list?
You can choose what packages you want to install and it is pretty minimal IMO.
It also doesn't use systemd, unlike Debian.

There was a firmware problem with my wireless card and I didn't have a wired connection to download the firmware. When I got a wired connection I decided to reinstall while connected to the wired connection and after installing it wouldn't boot. I tried a few more time then reinstalled OpenBSD. If I have a spare computer I'll try again, but I don't have a spare computer right now.

i'd rather use openbsd than slackware
slackware is so unpolished. Are you a slackware dev??

How is Debian minimal?
Its just outdated Ubuntu

No, just a user.
Slackware is really comfy.
It's like Crux, with less compiling, way better support/docs and stability.

No and No. Your entire post is completely irrelevant to what I just said.

My point is that Slackware is BY DEFAULT more minimal than all the Linux distros in the list (except LFS) and yet is not there.

OP, is obviously a misinformed faggot who probably just saw Slackware install size and thought "lol this must me bloated".

There are distros with small size that come with lots of bloated shit like systemd and distros like Slackware that are the polar opposite of that.

>My point is that Slackware is BY DEFAULT more minimal than all the Linux distros in the list

Alpine and void is the most minimal on the list. No systemd or gnu
LFS is very bloated, retard

>No systemd or gnu
>or gnu

So, just like Slackware allows you to do by default

>LFS is very bloated
No, you fucking imbecile, because it's up to you how much you put in your custom distro. That flexibility makes it the most minimal of all. You clearly never have done the LFS book.

>No, you fucking imbecile, because it's up to you how much you put in your custom distro

Damn, you are retarded for thinking lfs is minimal

is pulseaudio bloat

>>Autistic minimal
>Arch
Arch is not minimal at all

minimalists, please fuck off and stay away from OpenBSD. OpenBSD is not minimal. It comes with all the Xorg apps, and with emacs, and with ctags, and with a httpd.
OpenBSD isn't minimal, and I like it that way.

Would it be a bad idea to use ksh on debian?

What did he mean by this?

Void is a GNU/Linux distro tho, it simply provides an optional musl version.

That he is a retard who rants about things he knows jackshit about.

Well, guess what this is exactly what people in the OpenBSD project do, all the time (fix normal bugs). That's the proactive approach to security: don't wait until you have an exploit, just fix the darn bug. "free, FUNCTIONAL, secure" it is very cleat that they care about more than just muh security for security's sake.

all potteringware is bloat

AM I MINIMUL YET

OpenBSD is a pleasure to use.

its not emacs though

openbsd is ok

This doesn't describe OpenBSD.
