Slackware 15? Maybe soon…

As Slackware fans will have duly noted the team around the BDFL are finally one step, actually untold steps, closer to nearing the long awaited 15.0 release. And high time it is as outdated as 14.2 now is something like 4.5 years into its life. Is anyone actually still running this, except on servers? On 7 December 2020 it was announced that alienBOB’s latest Plasma 5 packages made it into the Slackware-current branch for testing and with that they finally fully replaced KDE 4. Shortly after XFCE 4.16 followed and now even includes the Whisker menu.*

    Thanks mate! Good to see you’re still kickin’, and healthy I hope. Just saw you’r estill playing STALKER? At least last year. Keep it up, man. All the best. B

    • Yup… still alive and kickin’!

      I haven’t been playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. recently, but it’s still on my system. As a matter of fact, I may check into the Zone a bit later. 🙂

      I saw your post from a feed by Dr. Schestowitz on Diaspora Network earlier today. Figured I’d freak out a few of my ol’ Nocturnal Slacker v1.0 followers when they got a notice that I had posted something. 😉

      Take care, B. Stay safe and healthy!

    Reblogged this on Confessions of a Technophobe and commented:
    This is the base for the distro I’ve been writing about (SalixOS). It’s good news!

    This is very good news! Reblogged on my site. See you on Diaspora!

    • Hiya, Robin… thanks for stopping by and commenting/following. Sorry, but don’t expect a lot of activity here. I’ve been quite lazy lately with my blogging, sadly.

      Have a great day!

      ~Eric
