Why aren't you using RedoxOS instead of Linux or Windows?
RedoxOS is literally master race.
It's modular, so you can strip and functionality you don't need.
It's lightweight, literally takes ~1,5GB of storage space after installation and upgrade
It's as functional as FreeBSD
It has lower requirements than Win7
Come on user, explain yourself
literally no drivers, apps or support whatsoever
>It's modular, so you can strip and functionality you don't need.
Let me know when you can add functionality that you do need
>It's as functional as FreeBSD
This can't not be a joke

kek
also is it open source and supports full disk encryption?

I hope he knows his way around applying for welfare.

another Linux distro?
huh no thanks
No! It's actually a whole new OS writen in Rust.
...
What's so special about it? Is the kernel written in rust better than the kernel written in c?
What's the userland consist of? Can it fully replace proprietary Microsoft APIs?
>It's as functional as FreeBSD
So not really at all
What in the literal fuck is RedoxOS?
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
Does it have steam support? Can it play Windows games?
Nobody cares about gnu you fat fucking hobo. We will call it Linux until the end of time.
>It's modular, so you can strip and functionality you don't need.
I don't want to babysit my OS.
>It's lightweight, literally takes ~1,5GB of storage space after installation and upgrade
So does WinXP
>It's as functional as FreeBSD
This is a joke
>It has lower requirements than Win7
So does Windows 98, doesn't mean I'll use that either
>rust babies are this stupid
Yes and probably yes.
Yes, because by definition, it cannot have any buffer overruns, use-after-frees, goto fails, null pointer issues, etc.
...
Except that the developer publicly admits that a kernel cannot be made without `unsafe {...}` expressions.

Underrated
Wallpaper please
How many internets will it get me in screenfetch threads? Because right now I'm using Arch to ssh into Gentoo running a FreeBSD VM and let me tell you it doesn't get much better than that.
