I think it’s best to not defend kiddie porn, unless you have a republican senator in your pocket.

Sounds like they’ve stayed much the same.
There was a time when I enjoyed that kind of effort. Now I have a job in I.T. and a toddler that I want to spend my free time with. When I use my personal/private computer, I just want my software to work and I want to be able to keep it patched with minimal effort.
In a way I’m glad Slackware has kept to the original ideals. I enjoyed using it from the 3 series through 7 at least. I remember people getting their knickers in a twist when he jumped version numbers. In those days I had a custom kernel that I wove patches into. Big O scheduler, usb support, agpart support, some other stuff I can’t remember. I remember wanting low latency because MP3s skipped otherwise.
It was fun, but back then hacking on Linux kernel patches and building things from source was my hobby. I remember loading Linux into a powermac 4400 because I could, and I used it as my always-on IRC machine.
Ahhh Slackware.
Serious question - does Slackware offer any special features that make it more attractive?
I stopped using Slackware back when Corel Linux released, and when CL died I switched to Debian and never looked back.
Yep, probably because it’s not funny or clever. My guess is that you look for funny and/or clever in your jokes.
The first board mount (actually through-board case mount) I recall seeing were HP socket 478. That horror-show of a socket also saw many plastic retention clip implementations that had a tendency to get brittle and crack. Socket 423 (which came before) had the same plastic junk mounts.
