@PhenomX6@iancho@s8n I'm not but imagine a card appropriate for a computer with 256MB of RAM. NVIDIA has Linux drivers on their website for hardware dating back to the Riva 128.
Damn Small Linux is dead, but the developer still works on Tiny Core Linux. It's an interesting distro. It uses only 25MB of RAM at GUI desktop+terminal. It has it's own in-house FLTK window manager and terminal. He's forked Xvesa and uses it instead of Xorg. Packages are downloaded to RAM or HDD, and then mounted into RAM as loop devices either at boot or "on demand". The issues are that this system of mounting packages eats up scarce RAM, and the package repository is like a crypt of decade old packages and scary from a security perspective. There's no reasonable browser, an 8 year old version of chromium, RAM devouring firefox-esr, you may as well use w3m if you suggest dillo or netsurf. Oh and I couldn't even get the distro to boot with 128MB, I had to bump it up to 256MB.
Then I tried Alpine because it uses busybox and OpenRC. Using 55MB at console boot with udhcpc+syslog+cron+ntp+dropbear. Xorg+dbus+i3+urxvt bringing it up 74MB. Alpine solved the browser issue with Core because it had Falkon, a halfway decent browser using QtWebEngine that ran fine unlike Firefox.

CrunkLord420I was at a store and I accidentally bumped into some guy, he almost fell to the floor. I said "watch where you're going!" and he said "you could have killed me with that bump, I'm vaccinated". I stared at him with shock and I could feel the panic rise. "Vaccinated? Don't you know how dangerous that is?" but it was too late the man was clutching his chests while muttering to himself. I began calling for help "I need help, he's vaccinated!". Everyone around me stares in shock and horror "vaccinated? I thought that was an urban legend". The poor vaccinated man on the ground starts writhing on the floor, clutching his chest "OHNONONO THE SPIKE PROTEINS!" as centimeter long spikes are forced through his skin and ejected from his body. His body was twisting and tearing in a lovecraftian display of true eldritch horror, before the spike proteins are pushed out of his eyes.
@mint@colonelj I've grown to dislike Luke Smith. He has some good philosophy (ie. anti-bloat) but the content isn't really interesting, educational or entertaining. He copypasta about him being the ultimate end state of /g/ is kinda correct, the memes have completely taken over his brain and that makes him incredibly unoriginal and predictable when it comes to his philosophy-posting. His recent tech content has been like "lmao just store you bookmarks in a shell script" and "rent a VPS with my affiliate code to become a LAND CHAD". Reminder that Luke Smith is too anti-internet to give a fuck about KF or whatever, because caring about anything but the trad-unaboomer lifestyle is cringe.
