This. It's goddamn fast and barely uses any resources.
Nathaniel Hill
How?
Benjamin Rodriguez
Alpine
Caleb Adams
Uses small applications, loads everything in RAM.
Gavin Johnson
Alright, so is it really suitable for day-to-day use? Shitposting and koding mostly.

Karlie will be amazed, how can you work with a laptop without any storage. I doubt it's have any development tool on it, but you can modify the image, so who knows. The acpi settings may sucks balls by default, but it can be f'xed more or less

You can get it small enough to work on some micro controllers

What kind of retarded question is this.
Wyatt Williams
Why is it retarded? I just want as long battery life as possible on my thinkpad e.g. when I take it to uni.

Kayden Jones
Why would you ever want to run linux on a mc?
Ayden Morales
Personally? To dick around
Otherwise? I could maybe see it being useful in edge cases or experiments on the rare occasion
Andrew Bennett

I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

Microsoft Edge drains your battery slower than Google Chrome! Just use Microsoft Edge to access cloud versions of your applications :^)
