That is a good question, I looked just now and it is disroot.org that is
copylefted.
So icedove isn't at all bloated?
I use iceweasel with a few addons,
noscript being an obvious one of them given that it is like giving the tank
armor part of that which is firefox. Or in my case iceweasel. Hyperbola has
iceweasel package that is hardened which I use. ;)

Browser (Firefox) is the only bloat here (if we don't count the TorBB that
is).
Light software FTW \o/
Anyway. As a side note:
When I am doing the $ sudo apt update now I get this strange thing:
"Ign:1 https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu flidas InRelease

After
$ wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
$ sudo apt-key add Release.key
$ sudo apt-add-repository
That gives me:
"The following NEW packages will be installed:

Hm... what about "sudo aptitude install -R wine1.6"? (The -R flag in aptitude
prevents recommended packages from being installed. I know apt and apt-get
have something similar, but I don't know what it is.)
Aha.
Well $ aptitude -s install wine1.6 outputs:

Is it sudo apt-add-repository https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/
and then what? :)
What is copylefted? The JavaScript of the webmail?
Actually, its not hard to partition the disks.
One is for root, one is for swap. say, 4GB for swap.
the rest goes to root.
make sure the root partition is bootable, and the swap one has linux
swap/solaris type.
Now if you want encryption, that is much harder. it took me a while to figure
Okay, its not really mature to thumb up your own post. Or to downvote
everyone you disagree with.
but yeah... you just make yourself look silly.
Disroot is the best at the moment. I wish I knew their exact license though.
Still, its copyleft so its good.
I just like the idea of a stable, secure, lightweight os.
The only thing I use my system that is not lightweight is my web browser,
email client, and sometimes emulation of sorts including dosbox.
As far as I know, those GNU/Linux distributions are not 100% free software
and not even trying.
It is another terminal-based front-end to the package manager. Like
'apt-get' and 'apt-cache' ('aptitude' provides the functionalities of both
these commands, ad more).
I suspect you do not understand what "running out of RAM" means. Probably an
English problem.
Every program you execute uses some RAM. If you execute many programs, or
programs using much RAM (maybe because of memory leaks), then all the RAM may
be in use. Once a program tries to store
It is common practice. Whether it is acceptable is up to you.
If you do not use end-to-end encryption (typically GPG), the email provider
can read your emails. Some providers propose to store your emails encrypted:

Come on.. Deblobbed Buguntu 8 will be ready in a year or so.. What's the
hurry? After all it's only been 700 days since it's base came out :D
Just clarifying and finalizing, systems run on hard drives dnt matter with
how much swaps or without, but systems run on RAM will be happy to be under
more swaps, right?
Just use the one for Ubuntu:

When? XXII century?
Disroot's privacy policy states that all emails, unless encrypted (with gpg
for example), are stored on their servers in plain-text.
Is this common practice and/or acceptable?
Nope, it is quite useful - this thread is raising the awareness. Trisquel is
in a deep trouble, and to get out of this situation 1st of all we should
admit this trouble and don't bury head in the sand
"On Linux Mint 17.x, the last line should be the following:

Even if you'll give a small donation of a million dollars to Trisquel, it
will still be deep behind the Ubuntu. I'm seeing so many +100 euro donations
but its' just a waste of money and despite all these donation there is still

Please add QubesOS , Void Linux and Artix Linux. QubesOS = secure OS where
the processes could be isolated at the independent virtual machines , but it
has systemd. Void Linux = runit instead of systemd, and overall an excellent
distro. Artix Linux = Arch Linux with OpenRC as default instead
What is the aptitude command, and what does it do?
The "is not going to be installed" error message can sometimes be fixed by
explicitly telling the package manager to install the package it's
complaining about. Or at least, you can figure out why it's not doing so
automatically.
I like to use the aptitude command. When it detects oddities
