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. :)

I pre-emptively saved myself the psychic damage and unsubbed from every trans subreddit I was subbed to in advance. I couldn't imagine what's going on on r/MTF right now, other than lethal levels of liberalism
I briefly glanced. Bunch of scratched liberals.
I wish more people knew about Hexbear, it seems to be leagues ahead of any other trans space.
But do we want scratched liberals joining? Granted, they'd be quickly filtered out probably and those who remain get a better place!
Precisely, there have to be at least some socialists unaware of this site, or even liberals willing to learn and be educated, and Hexbear's the kind of place where people who continue to be scratched liberals show their hands pretty quickly.
It really is. We are the only damn platform I know of that enforces its mod policies.
I unsubscribed from r/mtf a month ago and honestly should've done that sooner. It didn't really help me at this point of my transition anymore, especially because of the political or sex posts
self-inflicted psychic damage
I lookedyou know you need to content warn posts about self harm
Fixed
