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. :)

Have slowly come to realize I like the puppygirl thing more as an identity than like a kink thing
smut
Like in puppyplay smut or shit (maybe this is isn’t an ideal way to explain it) I’m never interested in doing anything of the shit happening. Maybe part of that is prob being ace but acting like a dog isn’t for ms
What it feels like is my gender is just Girl with Dog Characteristics. Also if body mods are ever a thing within my lifetime I would want dog ears and a tail
A cute girl complimented my jacket and then left so I didn’t get to compliment her :(
Feeling more comfortable in my skin than possibly ever.
I like my new name, and it’s become a natural part of me very quickly.
My preferred clothes (“women’s” clothing), which previously I had to work up a lot of emotions to put on, are just a matter of course now. I wear them without even really thinking about it.
I’m less concerned with words like man/woman/enby or pronouns. Just focusing on my own experience. More confident and comfortable with my sexuality.
4 months of laser hair removal is paying off. I have a lot of sessions in front of me, but the results are real and noticeable. I’m happy every time I see it in the mirror. I don’t break down crying after I can’t get a close shave anymore. If I have a little stubble, it’s okay. It’ll be gone soon enough.
Voice training continues to be an obstacle. I find it very emotionally draining, but I’m trying. I’ve done more consistent training in the last few weeks than ever before. It’s not where it needs to be, but it’s good. Eventually, it will become second nature like the clothes.
All together, thoughts of transition are less fear-based and more colored with calm excitement and confidence.
It feels good, people. I’m really embodying the love/loves atm

anyone know where to get testosterone via DIY?
Is there a good way to hang up flugs in my room where they won’t flap when a ceelinh fan is on? I heard command strips are okay but they are pretty expensive. I’m not able to use pins because I am in a dorm Edit: never mind they are cheaper than I thought. I guess I could use like painters tape tho which would be cheaper
For some reason I thought I would smell better when sweaty on estrogen, but it still smells bad. Smells different but still bad
fat tiddies
shoes off torrid coming in the mail
thigh full of E
extra cozy cardigan
one hell of a mahjong soul winning streak
what more could a t girl ask for?
It’s gonna take a least half a year before I can take hormones from my healthcare provider so I’m thinking of just doing DIY in the meantime. I’m starting with blood tests and then I’ll see if I want to take it further
DIY is legitimate and it happens because of gatekeeping like this. You have every right to start sooner if you’d prefer.
Indeed, I’m doing this because it’s been over three years since the beginning of my transition
What if… reality TV dating show but a slow burn horror time loop video game 🤔
I think there’s something to this
holy fuck, cardigans are so fucking comfy this is unreal
My one black cardigan is carrying me through the season
I just got a kyoot goth one.
I need to get some
Costco has yet to let me down for cardigans
This is high art
The gif of the gecko vibing that Liv Agar puts in the corner of her streams should be an emote here
also
parasocial crushing
she’s super cute and cool imho
she is very cool and one of the para social relationships that pushed me to actually transition. seen her deride pro-China leftists a little bit recently though:/ nobody’s perfect especially north americans i guess
Friend just got her HRT meds and I’m afraid they gave her possibly the worst regimen ever.
Is it just dosing or is it also what they prescribed?
Both
Like, spiro only and a low dose?
If she’s literally just starting, they’ll start super low and go up. That’s what the WPATH says to do even if it’s not technically the most effective - WPATH is kinda stuck in the past, and they’re trying to base HRT regimes for trans patients on something other than vibes and which doctors you just happen to be near and can afford. It sucks but without a standard, you kind of have to doctor hop and just luck out. I dunno I’m of 2 minds on the whole thing.
Interesting because they seemed to have done the opposite for me by giving me an unusually large dose and then cutting me back when my levels were unsurprisingly too high. Not that I’m complaining about getting good HRT right off the bat though
I think it’s still gonna be a mess until they get the WPATH better (and more GPs are aware of it rather than gender clinics).

The pain isn’t stopping. All day today, all day yesterday, I don’t remember before that. I need it to stop. I can’t be this way.

Wish I could just hug you irl.
Don’t stop posting if it’s helping, It’s hard seeing you go through all this. Sometimes I wish I could take you away from your shitty parents and just take you on a girls night out
spoiler
Me too. I wish I could cry into you.
It does help. I feel very alone and being able to talk is nice.
just talking, don't feel obligated or anything
Not that there’s a lot to say. The dysphoria is bad, I’m scared. I’ve been scared of the future forever and it seems just as bad as I’ve feared. Everything is so wrong with me. I can’t stress enough how the dysphoria hurts.
self harm, worse then usual, sorry
I keep having urges. Thinking about how it felt last time. Thinking about how it would feel again. Looking at the blood and feeling the rush. I remember it being better then anything. I don’t know if that’s true or not but its how it feels. I know I shouldn’t do it, I know it doesn’t “solve” anything… nothing solves anything. There are no solutions. I feel so hopeless, on a personal level and about everything happening on a macro level.
I just can’t stop thinking about it.
Sorry I keep doing this to you. I know I’m a lot.
:meow_hug:
Why can’t I just be and feel normal
Also the injection got done :catgirl-heart:
