gollark: Why not?
gollark: If an OS needs a GUI, then do headless Linux distros not count as OSes?
gollark: Just use some random OSes on the forums then.
gollark: <@490656381662396418> There are already decent ones around. You do not have the experience/skills to make another good one and it would be a bit pointless anyway. Instead, you will add another trashy "OS" to the pile of 400 or so existing ones.
gollark: You have to download it, convert to DFPWM, and write that to a tape.
