What’s stopping these two from developing a new fully functional OS? They already have near-infinite resources and demand is at an all-time high with Windows users ready to jump ship for a user-friendly OS that just werks out of the box.>inb4 troonixKeywords: fully functional, werks out of the box, user-friendly
>>108008914People have made better OSes. You can't replace Windows no matter how shitty it gets. Too many people are already locked in.
>>108008914Steam OS is what you are asking for>But it’s LinuxYeah, because making 4th option would cause problems with software compatibility. Windows is only popular because everything runs on windows, not because it’s a good OS, but because everyone builds everything for Windows. Now not everything is build just for Windows, most software is also build to run on Linux and MacOS, but nothing runs on some even more niche alternatives. Maybe what you are truly asking for is user friendly distribution for Linux. Basically building non-Linux based new OS is waste of time and resources.
what a faggot this guy op is
>>108008914There's no point if you can just use something like Linux as the base.
>>108009903If you don't like my post then don't reply.
>>108008914>Keywords: fully functional, werks out of the box, user-friendlyChromeOS is linux and it's all those things
>>108008914I think you overestimate Gabe's capabilities and Ellon's even more. Plus valve is already developing their own linux distro. Everything Musk touches turns to dogshit.
the talent just doesn't exist, how much more proof do you need
>why don't two glow nigger kikes make a new OSI dunno. It's a mystery. Probably because they know retards like OP will believe whatever bullshit they spew anyway.
>>108008914Collusion between Microsoft and other companies
>>108008914If elon musk made an os it would be called something stupid like Grokux and the only app installed is Grok
>>108008914>xAI grok man will make an OS that doesn't spy on peopleSteam is just as bad with it's cloud services. If there is low or absent user control, then it's the same thing with different packaging
>>108008914SteamOS exist so Gaben did exactly what you ask for.And Elon is a retarded hack too busy sperging out about his childish fantasies.
>>108009919so you liked their reply?
Modifying linux to be friendly is simpler than doing all the hard work. What do you think MacOS is?
>>108009974He'd call it XOs or something
>>108008914>GabeAs other anons have said, there's already SteamOS, which is only going to get more popular as the new hardware rolls out.>ElonHe is retarded
>>108008914There's no revenue in any of it, specially if it's just another garbage troonix distro. What we need is a new, affordabe, competent (doesn't have to be cutting edge, though) open architecture PC without nsa backdoors that people can use for whatever they want. That would also put non-micropozz and non-fagpple OS' on the map because of proper driver support that's not possible now.They can pull it off, and there's certainly money to be made here, but would they be allowed to even if they were fully minded to?
This is how you solve linux
>>108010597Or perhaps OS X
>>108008927cope. there's no linux distro that just werks in all domains that are important to normies.for the average user windows is simply just better than any linux distro.
>>108008914>What’s stopping these two from developing a new fully functional OS?speaking of musk, he's pathetic a ketamine addict who pays people to play videogames for him to brag about being good at videogames onlineso yeah, maybe he could pay people to develop a new fully functional os to brag about being good at operating systems online. I wouldn't use it out of principle, thoughgabe is currently in the process of doing just that. videogames are already pretty much a solved problem on linux thanks to him
both are incompetent dimwits that would rather spend their fortune on yaughts and raping little kids in them
>>108011331>holy reflection
>>108011345>>holy reflectionit's called projection, ranjeetif they weren't incompetent we would be on mars in 2024 and Valve would still be making games and updating their old ones
valve total workforce is less then 350 people and it probably has less than 100 devs. it's a actually a small company people wise.
Left can and has made an OS. What's stopping right is that he's a grifter.
>>108009919your post is retarded, you know very well why no one is building a whole new os so why make this thread?>inb4 troonix>Keywords: fully functional, werks out of the box, user-friendlybait post certified, what's even the point of this? you aren't even getting paid...
For what purpose. The ones we have are perfectly fine for actual use (aka commercial and government not tinkering at home)bsd and linux are highly minimal and highly modular, you can make them be whatever you want. for everything else theres custom rtos and bare metal.>hmm i know what ill use my billions of dollars for, making some OS trannys can tinker with ncurses on even though we already 4 that work.
>>108011248Yes, because the reason normies are stuck on windows is varous bits of software that only work on windows. There's nothing different between windows and linux in terms of usability. If all windows software suddenly worked on linux tomorrow there'd be no difference between them for the average user. The more common linux becomes the more interested companies are in providing linux binaries.
>>108008914Musk has better things to do. Rockets - Electric cars - Humanoid robots - AI - data centers in space - Moon - Mars - etcGaben is on a multi billion dollar yatch where he can have girls service him. He's checked out of life.
>>108013808>The ones we have are perfectly fine for actual use Windows 11 is bloated Loonix is unusableMac is closed Flaws are apparent
