• Bazzite – a Steam0S-like OCI image for desktop, living room, and handheld PCs

  Https://chimeraos.org/ I've been using this one, it updates the system atomically. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Specs, Best Distro?

  I think you want something like https://chimeraos.org/. Source: 6 months ago

• When will STEAM OS become public distro?

  I’ve read about Chimera OS which seems to have the same goals as Steam OS https://chimeraos.org/. Source: 6 months ago

• Is it possible for a PC to only run steam and steam games and nothing else?

  Noone said it but the direct answer to your question is chimeraos. It's barebones Steam Big Picture mode with an empty desktop that doesn't have a browser only to do some emergency terminal modifications. It's Linux but it's designed to not involve the Linux part of it. Source: 6 months ago

• Requesting comprehensive advice for getting off Windows

  So I have a bit of experience with current gaming on Linux - I have a living-room box running ChimeraOS and my wife is currently happily playing Starfield on it - but I am now faced with the prospect of either buying a Windows key to keep my main/gaming rig chugging along on Windows 10, or just finally biting the bullet and moving my rig to Linux.

• A Modern Operating System in 1.44MBs

  Here's the link to the OS the YouTube video is talking about... http://kolibrios.org/en/ It's been around for a very long time and is actually a fork of MenuetOS... http://menuetos.net Both are very impressive feats of assembly language engineering. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• MenuetOS: An entire operating system in x86_64 assembly

  Mandatory mention to KolibriOS[0], an open-source fork of MenuetOS. 0. http://kolibrios.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• MenuetOS

  > KolibriOS has forked off from MenuetOS in 2004, and is run under independent development since then. All our code is open-source, with the majority of the code released under GPLv2 license. https://kolibrios.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• How can a browser (Firefox, Brave, Chrome, whatever) use 10+ gigabyte RAM???

  Abundance of resources in average machine is making people quite lazy. Just to shock people I tell them to take a look at KolibriOS. Whole OS, with drivers, sound, graphics, software, compiler, debugger and games fits on CD image 39MB. Smallest bootable system is 1.3MB. My phone makes photos that are bigger than that.

• TinyLLama – A Tiny x86 Retrocomputer

  Again, >I'd like to have a grasp of what sort of compatibility this relatively unknown cpu has. I do not plan to run Linux on this. But I might want to run MenuetOS[0], KolibriOS[1], Aros[2], ZealOS[3], to give you some examples. 0. https://www.menuetos.net/ 1. https://kolibrios.org/en/ 2. https://aros.sourceforge.io/ 3. https://zealos.net/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
