Hey it's my bootstrap theme with my name misspelled ;-) Thanks! I'm honored.

PS: Check out my other projects like http://unreadable.website, http://indycast.net or the super-secret http://2words.io

I remember this from Gentoo's April 1st joke, nice theme!

yep ... same thing!

As someone who always used to always get the Debian net install, then upgrade to Sid, this has been my favorite distro for years. Frenchmaid and dkegr tools are great, community is second to none, and there is a lot of innovation with new tools/scripts while keeping a traditionally UNIX beardlength. Think of LinuxBBQ as what crunchbang (#!) should have been all along. Being able to snapshot your system ("roll/roast your own") into a live image is also a great tool. I use this as my primary desktop OS. Great for lovers of tiling WMs like I3.

Edit: come meet the meat on freenode at #linuxbbq

A small Debian distro without systemd? Sign me up.

Installing Lacipecsenye right now in VM. Thanks.

Why do you dislike systemd?

Maybe the parent didn't have to cock the gun, but for goodness sakes, don't pull the trigger ;)

There are quite of few aguments to run without it

It's an RPC backdoor to the GPL's module restrictions, for one.

Uh, was there not some Linux distro for Android development with a similar name or I going old and senile?

UPDATE: Ah, how ironic, I guess I was looking for BBQLinux. What happened to this project?

Is this a distribution? It is not clear to me, at first I thought it might be a DistroWatch clone.

I think yes. This is what their `about` [0] page says:

LinuxBBQ is a multi-purpose operating system based on the Debian GNU/Linux "sid" branch, spiced up with kernels and tools from siduction, grml and our users!

What is it?

I had the same question at first, but I loved it anyway.

I don't understand. Is there a Linux distro out there with too many combinations?

looks cool, downloaded bork amd64, could not run it inside virtualbox, with xorg fatal errors.

The release names and notes are childish and repulsive.

I think you're missing the point a little.

You don't see any problem with "Rape My X"?

Then don't use it.

Ah, yes. How dare they have fun.

So, I'm totally ok with "Baconator". "Chlamydia" is kinda poor taste. Not OK with "Rape my X". So, yeah, tasteless.

Meh, people always get bent out of shape when a statement makes them think. You feel guilty because your mind associated it with something inappropriate.

"Rape my X" is likely in reference to the window manager. I don't see an ethical problem with metaphorically raping computer software, especially when KILLing is taken so lightly...

yes i'm sure the parent was upset because "rape my x" challenged his unexamined beliefs and not because it's juvenile edgelord shit
