gollark: So what *do* you want it for?
gollark: 2. take a bare-minimum Linux distribution and a CC emulator. Set it up to autologin to the CC emulator with potatOS preinstalled.

This painting may date as early as 1470. [...] Christ is shown behind a parapet—a convention Antonello appropriated from portraiture. The device enhances the effect of Christ’s physical presence and suffering: "a Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief" (Isaiah 53:3).
