Yes, TinyCore-Core comes without a GUI (like the commenter above said, headless). When they say 28 MB RAM, that might even be overestimating it a bit. All of TinyCore-Core fits into just 17 MB. Of course that goes up if you need to install things, and I don’t know if it comes with an ssh-Server out-of-the-box. So for a proper server setup, 28 MB sounds pretty reasonable.
It blows my mind, that there is an entire Linux Distro, that fits into a modern processor’s cache. Who needs RAM anyways? (unfortunately, because of how cache works, we can’t actually use it without RAM)


Holy shit, this is what it looked like!? I saw the wikipedia article posted recently, and was wondering if there where any pictures.
The article only specifies “makeshift composite armor plating”, which made me think it was just some steel plates.
But no wonder over 200 rounds of ammunition and three explosions had no effect. No wonder they briefly considered using an airstrike or an anti-tank missile to stop it.
It also looks to me like he was always planning to die inside, I don’t see any way to get the shell off again.
