To me @OS1337 is just an attempt to a minimalist #Linux distro because I want some #reproduceable & #auditable #firmware for various other projects, and both @yoctoproject and #RaspberryPiOS 'lite' seem rather excessive to me.

• Also a proper minimalist #CLI-based #distro that can be used for an "#SSH-#Terninal" does have merits.

I just think that it can have serious benefits being less distracting and allowing me (and others) to just use basically any hardware to get work done...

• The rest of the component selection came because it was either dictated by necessity (Linux has the most driver support and biggest community), alignment with values & goals ( @landley 's #toybox is a clean & minimalist userland) and being better than #GNU stuff (i.e. @musl / #musl) by not bricking shit at random minor updates…

television

https://git.permacomputing.net/television/files.html

I've been in situations of giving a lecture or a workshop where there was no screen or projector available, or... No cable. The usual workaround that I've seen friends and colleagues use is to have everyone join jitsi/zoom/bbb/etc and do the screen sharing there. This works but feels like a grotesque variation of the "a multinational corporation's service as the easiest way of copying files between two nearby devices" entry from the crappy everyday tech bingo.

So here is a response with television, a simple binary that takes screenshots of your desktop at regular intervals and serves the result over http on an amazingly well formatted html page that can be accessed by everyone over LAN/WLAN with their browser. It's *not* a video stream, it's really a 1fps style screensharing web thing which is plenty enough for slides, GUI/TUI/CLI action, etc.
