    The Linux distro I am creating will be mostly free of GenAI / LLM slop, but not entirely.

    Current exceptions:
    - Latest OpenSSL (probs contains slop)
    - Latest OpenSSH (maybe? not today, but I will take updates)
    - A modern web browser (all-in-one binary from somewhere)

    But that will be all. Linux stays @ 5.10.x.

    Once "ready" (if ever), I do not want to spend time on it ever again. I will give up a lot to reduce maintenance time.

    I will:
    - Minimize slop in system
    - Update some SW to newer than 2021 if I want to and cannot find LLM use
    - Support Flatpak/containers, but don't prefer them: if needed, the outer OS has failed
    - I want random software from the internet to Just Work, for as long as possible.
