What would a Jonathan Blow operating system be like?
Full of self-importance, melodrama, and puzzles.
>>102194194Sounds kind of based honestly. I want operating systems to have soul again.
>>102194172https://youtu.be/k0uE_chSnV8Everything he says is actually spot on
just do it jblowship your puzzle gamestop pretending to enjoy gamedevstart a patreonstart the kernel
>>102194205We have the temple
>>102194229templeOS and its fans are too drunk on the schizo/terry aesthetic Haiku is much better in this regard
>>102194172there aint even got no point to the OS you just mouse around clicking on shitit look like windows in the futureaahahaaahaahahaaaa this shit stupid as hell man woooahahaahaha psych
>>102194172This guy is so insane delusional. He wants every single language, every single OS, every single IDE to cater to his user case and his user case only. WFT is wrong with him?
>>102194172it would be an OS where there are so many error messages just like blowjob being whiney
>>102194209>Everything he says is actually spot ondoes the man never tire of being correct?
>>102194209>the HAL was a mistakenot sure if based or utterly unhinged
>Once Jon has finished his language, his OS, his chipset, fixed production line manufacturing of components, solved global supply chain inefficiency, invented renewable computing resources, and resolved the problem of labor exploitation, then his next game is really going to run like greased lightningKEK, which one of you commented that?
>>102194455computing could certainly use some radical new designs.
>>102194385>He wants every single language, every single OS, every single IDE to cater to his user case and his user case only.not even close honestly.Windows, Linux, BSD , OSX are all terrible, bloated and over-complicated programming languages and the way we use them are stuck in the ~1960swhile software is largely still stuck in the ~1960s - 1980s
>>102195036Why fix what's not broke?
>>102194172a bootloader for meatspin
>>102195110nearly everything about computers is broken, figuratively, especially the people in charge of programming them.For me, it's programmers accidentally reinventing things from the 1960s.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6orsmFndx_ohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifYuvgXZ108&t=1153s
>>102194209Sounds like he's describing Sculpt OS, which already exists and is borderline unusable.
>>102195178What's wrong with it in your opinion?
>>102195178>XML>Genode components consume and publish state using structured data serialized in XMLlollmao
>>102194172Blow can't even remake his XBLA game without a team of 20 people being paid 4 million burgers a year.What kind of retard wants this actually talentless stuck up fraud near their OS? He got lucky with Braid, and even then cried and pissed and moaned because "UUUH SOULJA BOY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND MY MASTERPIECE AAAAUUUGHGHGHGHGH BLOO BLOOOOO".Imagine being Blow, holy shit LOL
>>102194241Thanks for blessing me, the guy who runs templeos and haiku
>>102195205Ever tried to use ComfyUI? Sculpt makes you play the dumb plumbing game just to display a desktop.
>>102195382oh, yeah that's terrible, but it sounds like the next evolution for gentoo zealots. I'm guessing j blow would also hate the concept because things should "just work", so he'd probably have a default for user-space with a nicer GUI concept for tinkering.
>>102195414It's not possible, though. With that extreme level of sandboxing, there's no way for components to know which other components exist, which they need to talk to, and which they shouldn't be allowed to talk to, without compromising the architecture. It requires either human intervention, or an omnipotent management system which has access to everything at once and reintroduces all of the vulnerabilities that sandboxing is supposed to prevent.
>>102194172Good luck having a gaymdev eceleeb writing your filesystem drivers or TCP/IP stack
>>102194172Probably something like BeOS. Jon should just checkout Haiku. I think he would like it.
>>102194241Qrd on haiku?
>>102195879Modern continuation of BeOS.As the other anon said, it's basically the OS for people who want a "good" OS.https://www.haiku-os.orgEven runs on (select) real hardware.
>>102194172It would be gayass Windows cause he's a faggot
>>102195229Agreed. Dude is a has been and a fuckup at best. That game sucked big time anyway.
>>102195911>Even runs on (select) real hardware.not even that select imo, works well on everything I've tried.
>>102194172Seeing as he cant release a flash game within 10 years i imagine an os would take some 100 years to develop
>>102194172It would [spoiler]blow[/spoiler]
>>102194194So, Arch?
>>102194172Basic features like being able to right click for a context menu would be removed because 'bloat' while other features would be autistically complex and bloated as fuck.An 'about [OS NAME]' popup would appear after every restart or wake up, with Blow's face and some pompous paragraph about how he stores his own farts in mason jars.It would be in alpha for 50 years and then version 0.1 would be released by one of his simps
>>102196528>wake upuhh what's the use-case for this bloa- feature anon?
>>102194172he kinda looks like Frank Sinatra.
>>102196528>Basic features like being able to right click for a context menu would be removed because 'bloat' while other features would be autistically complex and bloated as fuck.but enough about linux
>be windows>still can't alt + LMB to grab any window
>Press Windows + MAC Command key and start rewinding to what you were doing up to half an hour ago
>>102194194So....Gnome?
I feel sad that his sokoban game probably won't make money. Because sokoban is boring.
>>102196732so is the sims, and that sold like ten trillion copies
not only his parents have "blow" last name but also they named him "j"onathan.KWAB
>>102195036The only people genuinely ruining Windows are Microsoft. They literally made XP and 7 then thing went downhill from there.Troonix and MacOS(X) have always been shit...Maybe Mac OS X Leopard was good I'll give you that.
>>102194172If my last name was Blow I would either be really cool or immensely homosexual
>>102196958XP and 7 were trash. 95 and 8.0 were peak Windows.
>>102196976hi blow
>>102195911>>102196096Why this over something Linux based and designed to be used outright (mint or Ubuntu)
>>102197069Blow me gaybo
>>102195133happens more often and in more fields than you'd think, here's a funny one:https://fliptomato.wordpress.com/2007/03/19/medical-researcher-discovers-integration-gets-75-citations/
>>102197149not cool
>>102194172Once again he reiterates he could do this EZPZ he just needs the time to do it. He's been hacking away at Jai for a decade now with nothing released, in which time people have released languages and made actual usable software in them and got people to adopt them, for example Odin, Zig etc.Even as a gamedev, making a grand total of 2 games over his career of like 20ish years is not very prolific. There are dozens of indies who have done more in less time (and were just as if not more succesful)
>>102197208fuck you gay cocksucker
idk much about him, but he said something about other programmers being bad, so I agree with him
>>102194172very gay and pretentious
Lets see the language, Jon. No, I don't care about your lukewarm takes, show me the language. Jonathan, I am tired and it's been years, may we see it?
>>102197125Primarily for the squeaky clean package. Quite small and only a single, consolidated dev team, so more precision per decision, mirroring something like apple maybe compared to linux. Not that that's a reason that someone should absolutely swap to haiku for, but it's appealing if you don't want to deal with accreted nonsense while not wanting to make a custom, arguably unstable OS. Fewer updates, you know what works and what doesn't, for the most part anyway. Definitely tons of drawbacks; the lack of choice in software is somewhat railroading, as an obvious example. Oh, but, if nothing else, the DE is unlike anything Linux has, for some reason, and it's slick. Luv me some replicants, luv me some software tabs.
>>102198107ask him on twitter for beta access,you need to basically suck his cock and praise him, like compliment him like you've never done so,also don't have a stupid avatar or name, have a plain boring one,he might give you access then
>>102198156He seems very insecure.
>>102196096yeah I've tried it on a laptop with proprietary wifi card back in haiku alpha days many years ago and it still worked
>>102194486Funy
>>102198156Hmm yes, a language entirely beta-tested and sculpted by yes-men. There will certainly be no usability problems at all with it.
>>102199508he fired the entire dev team and now he is the only one working on the language
>>102199779Are you serious?
>>102199847yep, heard him say this on a stream, like a month ago.
>>102194172>e celeb bait image>low effort questionyep time to post in an epic indian shill threadthis guy seems like a psycho. hes made 2 flash games basically, one of which was a ripoff of a game from the early 90s. who the fuck cares about what he says.
