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. :)

Broccoli Rabe and Bean soup! I got an amazing cheap cookbook on sale two weeks ago that soups for every month of the year, and this was one of the ones for November. It is really warming and delicious. I also made an incredible vegetarian ossobuco soup last week. Let me know and I can share the recipe.
And just a basic portobello mushroom risotto. It goes well with the soup and keeps really well.
That sounds mighty tasty! How does broccoli rabe taste compared to broccoli? I dont usually do well with bitter
Mushroom risotto is classic :3 i love using different types, i think trumpet mushrooms are my fav to top a risotto with cause you can really sear them nice and good
It is bitter, but it really gels well with the other ingredients to make such a comforting soup.
I have briefly explored mixing mushrooms(including trumpets!) in my risotto, and used foraged chanterelles one time. I am going to explore this further. Thank you, comrade!
Also a quick trick I learned to make a creamier risotto. If you soak the starch from the rice, and use that same water(I use broth) to cook the risotto, it ends up creamier. Also, if you preheat the broth to a simmer before pouring it into the rice, it will cook so much faster and more efficiently.
Ooh chanterelles! I really need to get into mushroom foraging. I would love to get my hands on chicken of the woods or beefsteak shrooms
(we dont have mushroom emojis which is a disgrace)
It is a lot of fun to do in season, if you got the time! Go on a walk with some knowledgeable friends, and spend a day in the woods.
