This is what happens to your computer if you allow Rust in the kernel. /s
I didn’t think rust was required
Rust has been a part of the kernel since 6.8.
anyone else felt the impending finger slice in that photo? case looks pissed and out for flesh.
Yes, this one has tasted blood before. You can tell by the way that it is.
War makes you unrecognizable, buddy.
I think you’ll find that’s the recommended spec, not the minimum requirements.
Indeed, I see a gfx card in there, and cables.
Very funny, but I actually used to own a computer that didn’t meet the minimum requirements for Linux.
(Not my pic, but the same model.)
#if _FP_W_TYPE_SIZE < 32 #error "Here's a nickel kid. Go buy yourself a real computer." #endif
LOL!
That isn’t the same limitation I was thinking of, though.
I wasn’t confident which requirement you were missing, but I love that error
I was under the impression that the main impediment to running Linux on a 286 was the lack of an MMU. I might be wrong about that, though.
What was it, the ENIAC?
Linux doesn’t run on anything below a 386 because it requires a MMU.
(Some people have made forks that can run on 286s etc., but those changes have never been part of the mainline kernel.)
What can I run on a Transmeta Crusoe?
They tried running Linux on their ENIAC, but someone accidentally tipped over one of the crates of punch cards which has unfortunately set the project back a few months.
I installed Tiny Core Linux on an old ass netbook laptop on which even Windows 7 kinda lagged. Went CLI only, no DE and made the laptop thousand times more usable. I’ve basically repurposed that laptop as an external hard drive for things I don’t need backed up but good to have a backup of.
Man I love Lubuntu, it’s such a tiny distro that makes even old as fuck machines semi functional for modern usage.
Even those weird ass atom netbooks work like a charm with it and you can actually do decent work on them!
And the best part is that the UI keeps being understandable by average windows users
Great distro,.10/10, would install on a Compaq laptop again
Xubuntu brought a garbage Vista era system to usable levels for me for a dumb video I made a while ago, wasn’t fast but definitely usable.
Linux is between the requirements of a raspberry pi pico and a raspberry pi zero I would say
Although some crazy person did get Linux running on an esp32 once
There is a number of crabs that can run linux
That graphics card is too nice
But can you run Linux on hard drive controller chip?
ye with mips emulation
Yeah don’t plug that in
Put it in rice first
Some nails and coal are pretty enough.
I literally LOL’ed. Just wanted to say that
