DEMOS (Dialogovaya Edinaya Mobilnaya Operatsionnaya Sistema: Russian: Диалоговая Единая Мобильная Операционная Система, ДЕМОС, lit. ‘Interactive Unified Portable Operating System’) is a Unix-like operating system developed in the Soviet Union. It is derived from Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) Unix.
It’s development was initiated in the Kurchatov Institute of Atomic Energy in Moscow in 1982, and development continued in cooperation from other institutes, and commercialized by DEMOS Co-operative which employed most key contributors to DEMOS and to its earlier alternative, MNOS (a clone of Version 6 Unix). MNOS and DEMOS version 1.x were gradually merged from 1986 until 1990, leaving the joint OS, DEMOS version 2.x, with support for different Cyrillic script character encoding (charsets) (KOI-8 and U-code, used in DEMOS 1 and MNOS, respectively).
Initially it was developed for SM-4 (a PDP-11/40 clone) and SM-1600. Later it was ported to Elektronika-1082, BESM, ES EVM, clones of VAX-11 (SM-1700), and several other platforms, including PC/XT, Elektronika-85 (a clone of DEC Professional), and several Motorola 68020-based microcomputers.
The development of DEMOS effectively ceased in 1991, when the second project of the DEMOS team, RELCOM, took priority.
An archive of the DEMOS source code can found here: https://github.com/bpr97050/DEMOS There’s some interesting comments and mailing list archives in that repository as well. :)

CW: Homophobia/Transphobia
Independently of the federal election results, “anti-DEI” measures passed by the state legislature means that my university LGBT center is going to effectively be shuttered. The center won’t be closed entirely, but it won’t be allowed to put on its own events, so that is going to put more burden on LGBT student groups and degrade LGBT resources for the university as a whole.
Life keeps fucking me in the ass and I’m not even cumming
Electrolysis has been going well but I wish when my tech wants me to turn my head so she can reach parts of my face, she would stop saying “face the wall”

I’m hope I’m not breaking any rules fouling up the trans mega thread with cissitude but I have a bunch of trans and otherwise queer people in my life who all are in really bad headspace right now, and they’ve all been venting to me because I am apparently the Politics Understander for them
Is there any boilerplate advice I should be giving them? Any insights from people a bit older than their 20s for the trans youngins who are terrified? It’s becoming a real emotional burden for me to hear how scared some of these friends are and I’d like to have something to say to them from the experts
no matter who wins or loses we’re all winners for breaking out of this AGAB crap
So, uh, in case anyone in America may need to know this down the line, there is a rail bridge crossing the border from Windsor Ontario to Northern Michigan and freight trains handle customs and entry stuff ahead of time and don’t stop at the border.
