Obsolete hardware
Whenever I need to run an operating system on obsolete computing hardware, I find the smallest distribution Puppy Linux comes into mind.
The last number of years Slitaz has been doing an enormously great job keeping my old hardware to chug along.
Slitaz is so small it can run on RAM:
That's Amiga speak for ramdisk

Dans les années 90, les Mac permettaient directement de créer un RAMdisk, un espace de stockage de petite capacité stockée directement dans la mémoire vive. À l'époque, c'était une solution intéressante dans certains cas, comme sur les premiers Mac...
Macのメモリ上に一時的な高速仮想ドライブを作成できる「TmpDisk」がAPFSとNoExecオプションをサポートし、CLIツールを追加。

Save your disk, write files directly into RAM with /dev/shm

Given my interest in extending the life of my SD cards and hard drives as much as possible, I’m surprised I haven’t come across /dev/shm before. In a word it’s a world-accessible RAM scratchpad, which seems baked right into POSIX, so that virtually every ~Unix~ EDIT: Linux system already has it mounted as a tmpfs by default: 1 2 ❯ mount | grep '/dev/shm' tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,inode64) Today’s lucky 10,000, indeed.
Help? I created a #ramdisk on #openSUSE #Thumbleweed using #tmpfs and it somehow is persistent. 😳 Isn't it supposed to be "volatile", and wiped on a reboot?
My #computer remebers things it wasn't supposed to. I'm worried what else it remembers. It think it might secretely be sentient. Send help.
