Liberalism

Ahhhh. I remember the days, several versions of newspeak ago…

Does this include preventing the car itself from using its inbuilt cell phone?

That would prevent yet even more crashes.

https://vendefoul-wolf-linux.sourceforge.io/index_en.html / https://sourceforge.net/projects/vendefoul-wolf-linux/ back on my radar, with its IceWM/Xlibre/OpenRC release, after seeing the intro to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGf5OeL4YHE

• Already a fan of IceWM, often recommending it. It’s super light and super simple and familiar to windows users since the 90s (meaning it has a panel and “start menu”).
• XLibre, a fan, though only from afar so far, yet to try. Glorious to see X11 & Xorg(fork) getting life extension, rather than euthanized by the corporation.
• OpenRC is thorough. :) Solid choice.

All this saves [computer and headspace] resources for what you really want to do. :)

so I might try something else first. Any recommendations?

try 'em all.

Edit: PS: distrowatch’s search is handy: e.g. https://distrowatch.com/search.php?defaultinit=Not+systemd [Edit: PS: maybe try {in approximate increasing ambitiousness] antix, devuan (or other respins of devuan, like expiron, peppermint, vendefoul, shebang, gnuinos), pclinuxos, salix, slackel, slackware, calculatelinux, artix, obarun, voidlinux, decibellinux, gentoo, crux (or kwort), sidelinux(?), milis(?),bedrock, guixSD, LFS. Or whatever… :) Have fun exploring.
