Well @screwtape and the withdrawls from @rms ripe pits have made me switch to #guix I've always liked pretty much anything #gnu has ever done (let's not mention #hurd tho) If I could get away living #libre I would. It's just so hard these days. Guix seems the closest to a nice #lisp machine that you can get.

@praetor
I haven't used guix yet, though I imagine I will eventually like it. I wonder if they have a lot of cl packagers. There's the idea that operating systems should provide ports of lisp packages I guess, rather than quicklisp and the packages trying to provide ports of themselves, but in practice I guess quicklisp and community quicklisp sources have been what we've got.

@praetor @screwtape @rms It is literally called Gnu Common Lisp. So I'd have to side on "no" there.

@ksaj @praetor
There is also GNU CLISP, which is not GNU Common Lisp.But .. if you want a #LispMachine .. why not just use one and not a sorry excuse? https://tumbleweed.nu/lm-3/
