You'll still see before I will, mainly because I believe most TV is poisonous swill and don't care to waste my time watching it.
This was not the most geek one. I am glad to see a show that addresses mental health mixed with the cyber sifi.
Total conspiracy season 3 episode 10 no commercials.
Every time I watch that show and they’re using Kali I think “oh great here come 12 posts in the Newbie forum about how to install Nvidia drivers on Kali...”. So it’s good to see Slackware in there.
Some episodes ago he booted up to Mint, which I thought was perfect, but then the next thing he did was download a Kali iso and boot into that.
This is why I can't watch tv. I know, I know - I should just chill out and 'enjoy it' but the whole pop culture thing is frustrating.
Kali has been a crock even when it was called backtrack. There are so many redundant programs on it it's akin to having openoffice, libreoffice, koffice and gnome office on a normal workstation yet because it's "trendy" shows like this popularise it even more. And to think some people critisise Slackware for redundancy of applications.
You say he booted into mint to download Kali - why couldn't they show him downloading the source for whatever he needed and compiling it in mint? Ha it's been to long since I've used Debian - he wouldn't even need to do that he could just apt-get install xyz

Maybe just legally downloading an OS iso is the "cool thing of the week"?
Haven't seen any episodes so I don't know the programme's culture (and no immediate plans to find out).
See? I knew already that everyone appreciate the XFCE compilation by Eric Hameleers.
And most likely Leon really does not need your non existent support for it.
Leon is not using my Slackware Live Edition on that laptop. I have no idea how you came to that opinion. The desktop background seems to have been inspired by https://technology.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper/8190/ but it is not identical, and I do not include it in my ISOs anyway.
By the way, does anyone know if this is the first time Slackware has ever had TV exposure? To be honest I've never seen anything Slackware on TV, this is AWESOME!
Distribution: Slackware/Salix while testing others

RACSI runs on an IBM ThinkPad laptop. The software requires 64MB of RAM and occupies around 40MB of disk space. (See Figure 2.) This type of laptop was chosen due to the hard radiation resistance requirements on the space station. It also provides an XGA graphical screen with a resolution of 1024x756 and 64K colors, mandatory for displaying trajectories and spacecraft equipment status. RACSI uses the X Window System (X11R6) with FVWM as its window manager. The Linux distribution currently installed on the laptop is Slackware version 3.0 with kernel 2.0.30.
I never got past the first episode of Mr. Robot. However I liked a snarky comment about "Hunger Games". The narrator said something like "we have been reduced to a kind of people that watch 'Hunger Games'".
