 +Most importantly, **//ANIX will never ask you for your birthday or identification.//**
  
 ANIX currently only exists in prototypical //“Research ANIX”// form. Some components like the [[gh>https://github.com/HumphreyBoaGart/dotfiles|GUI]] are already being distributed, whereas other components are still bound to their owner's local machines. Other parts, such as an installer or RISC-V port, are still completely theoretical. ANIX currently only exists in prototypical //“Research ANIX”// form.

 ANIX was the collision of several ongoing projects by myself and a few Anons that I occasionally trade software with. In order to fulfill our myriad job, hacking & security needs, we had all begun independently developing homebrew solutions based on the vast open-source software library of the UNIX/BSD/Linux-world. ANIX was the collision of several ongoing projects by myself and a few Anons that I occasionally trade software with.

-By the end of 2024, we all realized that the sum total of our independent efforts comprised nearly an entire operating system, and one which could rival more bloated distros like [[arms:kali|Kali Linux]] and [[arms:parrot|Parrot OS]]. All that remained was to put the pieces together in the storied halls of the investment-friendly **Best Point Military Institute** - //A 501©(3)(pending) non-profit scientific & educational organization//, which by this point had acquired the research & insight of all the various short-lived //"Anonymous OS"// projects from years long past. +By the end of 2024, we all realized that the sum total of our independent efforts comprised nearly an entire operating system, and one which could rival more bloated distros like Kali Linux and Parrot OS.

 +Now in 2026, with pending legislation threatening the privacy rights of Linux users across the world, the secure minimal-dependency ANIX is more relevant than ever.

 Research ANIX is a Linux distribution, and like all Linux distributions it is composed of [[tactics:unix-philosophy|many tiny software packages]]. ANIX veers towards simplicity, preferring simple packages with minimal dependencies. Those who have used Linux for a long time may find ANIX is more akin to the “old way” of doing things, though it still takes advantage of a modern Debian base. Research ANIX is a Linux distribution, and like all Linux distributions it is composed of [[tactics:unix-philosophy|many tiny software packages]].

-As the ANIX spec is about to undergo a total overhaul in order to escape the tyrannical SystemD, we do not have a draft of **Version 3** of the specification ready yet. In the meantime you can still try building [[tools:anix:rav2|Version 2]]. Keep in mind that //it is not a complete set of step-by-step instructions!// You should be at least somewhat-familiar with [[diy:linux|Linux]] before attempting to do this.+As the ANIX spec is about to undergo a total overhaul in order to escape the sinister clutches of SystemD, we do not have a draft of **Version 3** of the specification ready yet.
