I haven’t read the graphic novel of the Handmaid’s tale, but I don’t know if I would read the book to 14 year olds.
This reads like the ugly kind of censorship. Where: 1) without knowledge of the graphic book, calling for its universal removal from school libraries. 2) not knowing if 14 year-olds should read it, ban it (i.e. ban all books that can’t be read by the youngest library patron; a notion few books could survive). And 3) belittling people (calling those who disagree with uninformed censorship “ass-mad up the wazoo”).
Now there is a little nuance to the post, but it’s outweighed by crude assessments.
Small enough to fit on a CD, which isn’t everyone’s definition of “small.” There are, of course, much smaller Linux distros, less than a tenth the size; particularly if CLI is adequate.
There’s certainly a history of Unix and Unix-like forks; which is rather simple compared to the Linux distro forks (go right to the big pic).
