Genuine curiosity from someone not deeply familiar with the details - what sort of operating systems fall under "Other" for desktops?

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Pretty much everything other than TempleOS. FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Haiku OS, Redox OS, Sculpt OS etc.

Imagine TempleOS for PH :) I'm not saying I don't think it happens ... but the irony.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 9 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Well, technically it's not possible since OS doesn't have network connection. At least unless someone learns C† and implements network connection into it. If Terry said it would be complicated, it's probably a hard task. :)

That's... something I wasn't expecting. :)

So if anyone does manage to hack TempleOS to have an internet connection, they probably earn the right to wank freely without losing the right to go to heaven right?

BSD, Haiku and pretty much anything that hides or manipulates the user agent string.
