the long awaited Windows NT Team vaporwave edit has arrived
GUYS!!!! LOOK BEHIND YOU YOU DROPPED ONE!
one time when i was little like 5 or so and watching icarly with my sister she said "you know gibby is spelled gullible" and i was like "it is? wow" and she was like "yeah its french" and i believed it for like 5 years until i learned what gullible means
This is a very particular place where in my opinion the default Windows behavior is way more sane
just read about this insane new idea... anybody look into this?
Jeez I should do this for my own web emulata
Video of it booting
Monkuous's port of Linux to my fantasy computer w/ a custom RISC architecture now gets to a bash prompt. Feels weird I can no longer modify my boot ROM without having to worry about keeping backwards compatibility with... Linux
There's an entire club dedicated to doing this to you which you're not in the least informed of
Smoove off
Isn't that just SOV or OSV
They would have done it on Mach and possibly hired Avie Tevanian before NeXT could; they interviewed Avie for Cutler's job before they interviewed the latter
Wow what language is that?? It's the best language maybe ever. Whoever made that is a genius
It does! Supports paging, I used it in my OS
No userland ported yet other than this simple init program which just tests out the write syscall but that's next on the list apparently
soooo it's been a while since i posted but apparently my custom RISC architecture runs the whole ass linux kernel now (courtesy of monkuous who has done all the porting work)
i wonder how people survived in college in the 90s back when they only had ChatMBR
you know what's crazy is that the brain does all that without even having any mutexes
How did I get so deep in a particular hobby that I can instantly recognize two random old men ive never met in my life and be hyped that theyre in the same picture together. Not Bill Gates he's boring. The other two much cooler old guys
Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds have met for the first time ever, at a dinner hosted by Sysinternals creator Mark Russinovich. Dave Cutler, Microsoft technical fellow and Windows NT lead developer, also met Linus for the first time www.linkedin.com/posts/markru...
"What Makes It Page?" is the windows vmm bible.
you should also look at the original NT design notes (google "Windows NT Design Workbook", without quotes) to see their thoughts on it
the source code is available on github: github.com/fox32-arch (be sure to check the community-projects repo, some really cool things have been made!!)
we have a discord server as well: discord.gg/2Tun7FnUZ2
shout out to @hyenasky.bsky.social for porting mintia and the jackal programming language!!
screenshot of the fox32 emulator window showing the fox32os desktop. on the desktop are three windows: a terminal window showing a directory listing and list of running tasks/processes, a file browser window showing the root directory of the boot disk, and a window containing the transgender pride flag. the desktop wallpaper is a picture of a fox, but is mostly obscured by the windows on top of it.
fox32os desktop with three windows open: a large text editor window containing (partial) source code for an example application, a file browser window, and a window created by the example application in question. the example application simply creates a small window titled "hello" and draws the text "hi chat" to it.
updating my pinned post since its outdated:
hello world!! this is fox32, a fantasy computer platform based on a custom ISA! it runs a graphical multitasking operating system called fox32os, and over the past couple years has gained support for a few new programming languages designed by my friends!
Shoutout to Penny Ahlstrand @ the CHM for digitizing hundreds of pages of junk for me on multiple occasions
Topaz, Mica, OZIX, and NT in particular I've been obsessed with for like years
made a family tree (family DAG?) of a bunch of weird DEC operating systems based on like thousands of pages of weird papers i've read through including a bunch of stuff that i had to get digitized by the computer history museum
Papal infallibility must feel so good if you're like a particularly fallible pope
I'm not claiming to be better btw if I could make half a mil salary for spending all day posting pure nonsense coal about programming on twitter I'd absolutely do it
That yacine guy in particular struck me as this a long time ago but I think he was merely a trailblazer for like dozens of them
