Welcome Bernds
Welcome to the very first issue of
the Meta Magazine!
Whatawaitsyouinthismagazine?Theplanwas
to make a newspaper but I think a magazine is
moresuitedfortheadventure.InthismagazineI
plantoputeverythingBerndmakesorsuggests.
So the content is Bernd made. The possibilities
are endless: threads, Bernd portraits, IWOs,
Polandballcomicsetc.Neverthelesstheplanisto
coverallsevendaysoftheweek.
At this point please don't expect much content.
Instead get your gears greased and be invited to
suggestcontent.Makescreenshotsofinteresting
threadsorsavethemasawhole.
Of course I expect much resistance and a lot of
sage.Ifyouthinkthatthismagazineisbadthen
maybeitisuptoyoutoimproveit.

software.

Serious discussion
The Consequences
The most common consequence
is that Bernds at least discuss
Linux distros more often. In
somecasesspecificDistrostends
to stand out: Anime/OS. It is
knownthatanimethemedLinux
Distrosareverypopularon/int/.
Although there are some anime
haters there are some Bernds
wholovetheirAnimeOS.
Kawaii!ItisMangaka.No,itisnotGentoo.
There is nothing special
about it. Just an anime
themed Ubuntu. The
code name for this
specific new release is
KOE.
