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?

it's no longer the 1970s or 1980s. use high level language for most shit for modern hardware, use low level language for performance reasons/hardware banging. best of both worlds. slightly easier to debug.

It's going to be a saas-first model. It's already using GLM image, which is an absolute dogshit base (ranked 61 on the leaderboard, below flux klein 4b which is ranked 50 and qwen2512 which is ranked 14). The project leader said this about Noob 2:

Very impressed with Gemma 4 here so far. Neither Qwen3.5-2B or Qwen3.5-4B are able to get this right ever even with reasoning, Gemma4-E2B-IT got it right first try *without* reasoning (the closest answer is "This is a test" which is one of the options it gave there).

Can someone identify what sort of software setup this guy is using to manage to get this volume at this quality this fast

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzJfXpOnKoU

It's 90 minutes worth of pretty good and consistent looking frames every 1-2 days, something that could do batch generation? Or even just the model he's using to get this look, is it showing any telltale signs of prompts, styles etc, I'm assuming he's genning them locally

There may be reasons as to why we have so many alternatives to Photos out there, including re-enabling the classic Windows 7/Vista version.

>>108499063
Disable Tamper Protection before attempting to disable Defender Realtime Scanner in Group Policy or with registry edits. It will stay disabled forever that way. I don't remember if they tried making it harder to disable in an update, so best take care of this on a new IoT LTSC install without updating at any point before disabling Defender.

And dozens upon dozens of lazy devs hard-coded their colors.

There are custom themes for Win11 that dark theme Win32 UI, and Microsoft could do the same. But because of those lazy devs they don't want to open up to the liability of some corposlave having issues using software from 1997 they need to use in dark mode because whoever wrote it back then didn't give a shit about respecting the Win32 API so we're stuck in the decades old Windows bodge parade. Bring your own dark theme! (warranty void if used)

If Microsoft has ANY SENSE, they build on the success of the .NET/C# team.

Develop a WinForms successor that is cross platform, Windows/Mac/Linux. Exportable to the web as well kind of like Avalonia. Simple drag and drop style native UI design with the ability to tweak and refine in the code. Make this a part of the transition to native UI.

This shit would do numbers and wreck the current landscape. Everyone is dead fucking tired of working on front end sloppo for even the smallest apps and internal tools. The OG WinForms was a gateway drug for getting into C# itself because it was so easy and streamlined to work with for any kind of basic app.

There's no tic-toc rule. Everything after 7 was shit.

10 is often considered "good" simply because it's a better experience than 8/8.1, but still worse than 7 in every way other than better compatibility with modern hardware and software.
I'd argue even Vista is overall better than 10 and the only reason Vista is shat on is "poor" compatibility because people were trying to run it on their ancient XP toasters.
7 was the only Windows after XP that MS improved in all sectors: compatibility, performance, features and experience. Everything else after if drops the ball in at least two of those areas.

Yup, not as pronounced as my version, but it seems to do an okay job of it.
Back in 2010-2012, when I decided to mock the Macintosh screenshots that were shared here on /g/, I don't think even KDE was adding drop shadows to their screenshots.
I love that 4chan allows PNG transparency like a bro, though. It just makes images pop right out of the thread.

99% of it is a single imagemagick line. Everything else is fluff I have added and tweaked over 15 years. I also enjoy the portability of the drop shadow scripting wise. ezpz

I'm not saying linear TV didn't have it's problems but at least it always felt like it did what I wanted, not what it thought I wanted.

Its still like that if you either don't connect it to the internet, use a launcher / ADB tweaks in Android, root Webos / Use adguard/pihole

>>108505954
It's not a controversial opinion I guess. Specially given that it's kinda like the epitome of rampant consumerism: What you get is shit by default, and when it gets shitty AND disfunctional because of a lack of support caused by the fact that your product gets "old" you are supposed to replace it by something else, despite the fact that it will still be able to display images just fine.
Software and a screen shouldn't be in the same package, and if it's done then the execution should be perfect, which is precisely the opposite of what is going on.
Personally I'm a jobless bum but when I get enough money to live on my own my idea is getting one of those non-smart comercial screens and hook it up to a PC built on an ITX case running linux configured to be a media center or something similar.

if the majority of the computing is handled by ffmpeg there is basically no reason to not use python, or something else interpreted. python3 is on most linux distro by default so that isn't a deal breaker either. i would bet that more than 95% of the computing is done by ffmpeg when you download a video.
