what's this? a gutted windows XP?

it's a reverse engineering of windows NT

What the fuck is this?

What does this mean?

To oversimplify it, it's basically an open source clone of Windows being worked on for people that want to use Windows programs without being part of the Microsoft botnet. It's still in early beta but I've seen people running applications/games on it.

Is like Windows but is free as in freedom

OP don't take this the wrong way but what was the point of this thread? there's a new release of React every three months…

neat
but can it run Crysis?

So you mean Ubuntu?

to remind people there is an open source alternative to windows that's not linux


that's not the whole story. development has picked up more rapidly since the release of windows 8, and the frustrations of windows 10 have only confirmed that microsoft is taking its operating system in a direction its customers don't want.

It's not Linux

>>>/gnussr/

reactos can currently run DirectX/OpenGL games only in software mode (no GPU acceleration) because they have yet to write GPU drivers. they are focused on software compatibility and reverse engineering win32 and other generic drivers (usb stack, network stack). in other words they need to finish the base (kernel, win32 API) of the operating system before working on extensions (non-essential hardware drivers, peripherals, etc.)

also they would rather not have to write their own drivers to begin with. the goal is to get reactOS to mimick windows and still be able to install proprietary windows 10 drivers from AMD, NVIDIA, Intel, Realtek, etc

absolutely disgusting. GNU is the path forward.

reactOS is GNU general public license software

TempleOS should change its name to that

go back to your containment board, you're missing out on one hell of a circlejerk

The only appropriate role role for ReactionaryOS is to taper off usage of Windows programs. Unix-like operating systems are designed by the workers for the role of production, NT is designed for the role of mindless consumption.

ReactOS is a godsend for small business with legacy programs still running.

Not just businesses, a lot of state infrastructure still runs on old programs right?

gnus liscence is good.
gnu itself sucks shit almost as bad as windows/mac.

Yes, I believe the Russian government is even partially funding ReactOS's development.
