I'm using Win10 and heard a device disconnect sound. The last event (which would've occurred at exactly the right time) was a DCOM server launch failure (10001) while trying to launch
>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Copilot\Application\mscopilot_proxy.exe" -Embedding
But this shouldn't cause a device disconnect. The executable has a valid signature and was created today.

What the fuck happened?

Why don't we make an OS from scratch with no Unix and no (minimal) legacy bloat?

What would be the best architecture for this modern OS?

>null-terminated strings are good because they keep memory layout predictable
Complete and utter hogwash.
In reality you end up wanting to use some non-NUL-terminated string in some RO-pages as a parameter for an operation (say, opening a file) and now have to
- allocate memory for the string (unless you're smart enough to use scratch areas, which most people aren't)
- copy the string
- terminate it yourself
- initiate the operation
- release the allocation

Compare that to APIs with no NUL requirements, where you, for example, set up an UNICODE_STRING structure on the stack and pass that over to NtCreateFile - without a need to copy memory dynamically or copy string data around.

Just like everything else from the UNIX-era NUL-terminated strings had a usecase. That usecase hasn't been true for at least 30 years, yet autists keep repeating those outdated ideas because they literally cannot thing of any other way to do things. It's why you still have retards - even in this very thread - who favor microkernels.

You can just use an N+1 fat array and put a null character at then end.

But considering you didn't even read that part you probably don't know how or why someone would use RO-pages to begin with.

Freedom to fork things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to rewrite things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to have things not working because the developers have to account for a billion different configurations.
Freedom to incorrectly configure your machine and cause obscure cryptic issues that seem unrelated and impossible for other people to replicate without taking the same steps.
Freedom to have inferior software because the developers can't assert the user environment.
Basically, freedom to fuck it up in every step of the way.

MacOS "just works" because they control the hardware and the software.
Windows "just works" because the user has no control over the entire OS stack.
Linux "works in your machine" because you happened to have a similar environment as a specific developer.

After using Linux for so long I treat so many things as minor inconveniences (like different display/audio protocols supporting different features, how enabling the compositor fucks specific games, and so on) that would never happen on any other OS.

I just don't feel like Linux will ever go anywhere as long as things keep fracturing whenever they reach past a certain size. Having a BDFL in your project seems to work well but I don't know if that's a good solution, it won't stop people from forking your shit instead of contributing to a single effort.

I may be late to the party on this but my alphoomer nephew just showed me a locked thread of the Scratch Director of Technology losing his cool at 10 year olds and and being moderated by his own moderation team due to his "impolite" remarks while arguing over TOS changes that trains AI on user projects and adds an AI assistant. I guess not all gen alphababies got oneshotted by LLMs. Where's his PR guy to tell him a grown man throwing redditisms like "ad hominem" and "false narrative" at users he acknowledges in the same thread are statistically 80% under the age of 12 comes across incredibly retarded and tactless?

FreeBSD as your daily driver is not for the faint of heart. Performance is going to be noticeably worse than Linux, and you're going to need a lot of technical knowhow if you plan on running Linux-only crap. Linuxulator is about as reliable as Wine, and you should expect weird driver issues particularly with any GPUs. Sound issues too.

If you were comfortable using Linux circa 2008, you'll be fine. If you're a freshfaced windows babby who's afraid of compiling software, debugging, etc. you should stay on Linux until you get good.

t. Has been using FreeBSD for 10 years, slowly moving over to using it as my primary desktop.

Why the hell would you do datahoarding on a phone? Surely you aren't too poor to get a proper PC, right? Also, unsorted data is useless.

Keep anything important, delete the rest and start over, making sure that you sort your shit this time.

it's not in theory, however, in practice you'll soon learn that you'll want the service working 24/7, or, more time than your main computer is able to stay online be it due to power consumption, updates, issues and what have you, for those reasons alone is worth to have dedicated hardware
