I was just being inclusive you piece of shit bitch.
It'll go faster with more devs.
I agree with you thought. C and Assembly are the only languages you need to develop an OS in full.

not just using win10 which is perfectly fine if you are not a paranoid autist

kill yourself

Windows 10 is bloated and they force apps that pay them down their throat.
We need a new operating system.

Sure. Backtracking makes you sound so much smarter.
Get in the corner and put your cone on.

interesting question you know how windows forces updates recently I turned of updates in command line because I overclock my mouse with this odd driver (its now fixed for 1803) sweetlow driver on overclock.net if any one interested but it forced the update anyway maybe a month after I stopped it in command line.

why do they do this is it actually for security or do they have some other motive? to stop every one stopping on one version and some one els taking over the IP and development 3rd party? just wondering as I doubt many would do what I did to stop it.

Why not golang?

actually it probably delayed the update by maybe 2months.

make sure it can run programs like this

This is going to be a logo and a modified Ubuntu distro with some shitposting tools installed as standard, isn't it?

No fucking sweat bro.

hello friends i just learn for loop and ife lse

what can i do to helo

dumb frogposter

I ligit kinda do hope some one makes a new OS soon. Chrome OS is just Linux right?

Wine has DX11 support now and runs on Linux and OSX I think. we could technically make this Jow Forums OS have Dx11 support if we tried hard enough I think.

Dev or get out, simple.

>you thought

Attached: 385.jpg (317x267, 21K)

Correct. But we have to work to achieve this.

What hardware are you guys focusing?
Or will be writing drivers to support everything? :^)

I don't really understand these threads. is there any reason for them, other than allowing retards that have no real programming experience to LARP on the internet?

we would also have to make it support windows porn games from japan not sure what they use.

You pretty much hit the nail on the head.

>Chrome OS is just Linux right?

Yes. The Linux kernel isn't exactly cutting edge, but it's good enough compared to the enormous investment of starting from scratch or trying to put together something based on L4.

We're focusing AMD because we conform to no jews. Fuck Intel.

I thought we already had an OS?

Clover?

what I don't get is NASA use Linux why don't they just make some thing them self surly they make super advanced firmware's and simple OS for their rovers and space shit. is it really that hard to do?

Do a command line OS with the only purpose to post on Jow Forums.

THAT'S RUNNING THE LINUX KERNEL AND GNU USERLAND.
(And it's not good.)

what 's the plan here?
where's the blueprint?
at least do something first to show

Unironically a good idea.
For VMs.

Then name the OS "Terminal Cancer" TC for short.

or are the rovers and international space station internal life support OS running on like win2000 and Linux?

NASA use VxWorks for their rovers. VxWorks is a commercial product made by a private company.

And yes, making a full-blown kernel to drive a modern OS from scratch is an enormous amount of work.

Why bother making a completely new OS when what already exists works? Just make a Unix based system. A Jow Forums made OS from scratch will never be made. Stop fantasizing you fucking nitwit and get out of your moms basement.

This made me laugh pretty hard
I'm almost motivated to help get this train out of the station so I can see it derail

Jow Forums couldn't even program a simple task switcher

I'm serious, prove me wrong. All you need is a program that, upon start (I'll even let you use grub to boot to it) can manage memory and cpu rings and disk storage (use a floppy with FAT-16) effectively to run 2 separate programs, switching between each whenever the user presses a button.

I live in my mom's cellar, get it right nigger.
And it'll get done. it has derailed into a terminal based posting OS.

it's for faster clicks

>an attempt to make an OS
>by a bunch of frogposters
>who had trouble setting up a fucking IRC channel of all things
Good fucking luck you bunch of retards, I'm sure none of you even have a plan or even the knowledge required to do this shit.

you can be the for loop guy and do the ife lse statements

The default wallpaper better be goatse or something

I've worked on a Linux distro before excuse you.

I'm great at marketing, I've gotten formal education and have industry experience in branding. I definitely can come up with a better name and brand than most tech anythings have.

I think this would be absolutely key to making this operating system actually happen. And we need it ASAP. Because this is a social website. Brands are about that social. All those dissenting people? A good brand will answer their questions, ideally without them even needing to ask them. It will convince people to join the project. A good brand will keep our development in line.

I'd argue a good brand is about all we need, direction-wise. Let the anons build what they build, but we will need a unified set of values, goals, etc.

So basically, we need a good brand ASAP. To build that, I need you all to tell me what you want this thing to be. How should it feel? I realize that's a strange question but, what should the user experience be? That's the baseline "outcome" of everything else. You define how it should be used and how it should 'feel'...

One immediate idea I'm having is to ingrain troll culture into the very OS. It needs to be intentionally set up to where any newfags who use it we will be able to very easily get them to destroy their whole system. Ideally doing as much damage as possible. Newfag-proof, essentially. But do so in a way that doesn't destroy it's functionality, security, etc.

Is this thing going to be a joke first and foremost? Etc. Hit me with your ideas.

We need someone like you.

(((You)))

This is my first time running across this thread, but I am highly intrigued. Why are you interested in this? What do you see in it?

We need something that we can control. We as autists need our own specific platform.

other things I'm immediately thinking is that we're going to have to target a specific subculture within Jow Forums. Because of people like . Sure probably a larper but if people are unironically making arguments for wincucks I don't give a fuck what they have to say. You can't make everyone happy. If you try you muddle down the project until it's just lukewarm everything.

How does this abortion of a project differ from the last Jow ForumsOS abortion of a project?
cloveros.ga/

>We as autists need our own specific platform.

You've already got OpenBSD.

but Arch, linux from scratch... etc. There are plenty of options that allow full control.

Also, some people in this thread are talking about building their own OS from scratch.

Why? I don't want to shut doors just yet but, why would you just decide the entire thing must be built from scratch without clear reasoning. You never want to build anything from scratch unless you have to. It's wasting manpower. And from a branding perspective...

I could see modifying things to the point that software can't just be ported over easily. We could even have no wiki or commonly stored place as to how to port software, so that you will have to quite literally Lurk Moar. This gets into the realm of making sure it can only be used the way it's supposed to. Disabling features just for that purpose is crap but I'm sure we could make optimization improvements and good design decisions that cause this.

Immediate thought - Imagine an OS with no formal documentation website? The entire thing is 'chan-based? Eventually making it's own board or the like. Maybe even a tor chan instead (or both?).

Brainstorm is good.

is this just a kernel or a full os? i hope you're not using multiple languages if this is just a kernel

before we have evaluation threads, full of people asking "how" - we first need to just talk about "what". A good brainstorm is independent of evaluation. That's a separate conversation with a separate mindset. You best come up with ideas when you let yourself be creative and stop questioning everything.

We could create a thread like this. "reply to ideas you support. And supply your own ideas. We will record all ideas, and rank them by number of replies. Each thread we will repost the ideas in rank order."

something like that.

With proper leadership + a unified direction Jow Forums could no doubt accomplish this. But, the direction is going to be the hardest part.

This is going to go fucking nowhere.

Mircrokernel or picokernel?

You forgot to add the "functional requirements" bullet point, let me do that for you:
>functional requirements
Must be able to run the "Hatsune Miku" computer program. Miku is waifu for laifu.

Hah, better go on a diet after all that bait you just ate.

Can we re-vamp the lo/g/os logo?

>#runeii-osdev
????

that's the big problem. There needs to be people in charge. And people to write up tickets, so the few devs you're actually able to convince to help you can implement specific things that are within their capability, instead of just saying come write some code. I unironically would be willing to help, but I'm not a genius, and I don't know nearly enough to write my own os. But I'm certainly capable of creating specific modules in some areas.

Trash it goes

based user

why does x approach positive infinity? shouldn't it be zero? just the function is fine too.

need a mem ewhere the limit dne 4 it 2 b funny.

Can you guys finish netrunner instead of starting a new project?

Name this shit LarpOS and only contribute logos

this

This browser is a fucking joke.

If Terry's TempleOS was decreed be god, then we need something that sounds like it was decreed by Satan. Terminal Cancer OS is a good start, what about Satan's Temple. WedW all be cia niggers.

The moment you realize that you're most fluent in Java, and that you're infact a baseddev. Help me anons, help me.

that channel is fucking empty

I'll make the logo

what architecture is this targeting?

>a Jow Forums powered OS
>nothing works because nobody can agree on which window manager to use
>widely regarded as the most autistic software ever written
I don't get why we're doing this

Who fucked with my post, I said baseddev!

>Doesn't know about ponyos

Onions fucking Dev.

Any oldfags around here to tell me exactly how many times this will repeat itself? I've seen 3 "Jow Forums OS's" now.

It never ends. It's an endless circle jerk.

can I put this on my resume

>logo
>Yet to be created.
Don't worry lads, I'll take care of this one.

What will you put on your résumé? That you got as far as posting on this thread?

If Jow Forums could pool it's power correctly and creatively I think it could write some of the best software on the planet, unfortunately this website is shit and has way too many drama queens that ruin everything.

HellOS?
Actually, better idea: Circle7, like 7th circle of hell but it's also a Plan9 wordplay

LMAO

Can we get a discord at least?

We will write a simple unix-like kernel (or copy the BSD one, 20k loc)
This is the spec:
>Xorg (wayland is linux only)
>custom dwm with guile config
>emacs (lots of libs and dependencies in one, extensible in lisp)
>dependency-based init
>zsh
>flexible offline package manager (like dpkg) with online frontend. Packages will have LOTS of metadata (alternatives, size when installed etc.)

>rofi
>we are forced to use gtk+ (pango and cairo), so we will include surf, termite and emacs-gtk
>docs in TeX
>glibc by default (for emacs)
>our coreutils (based on plan9)
Can we do this?
