I pay 13eur/month for 1gb high-speed, but no roaming or anything extra

No one cares about your incomplete clone of a fifteen year old OS, yet you still work on it.

1- why you are here lol 2- i don't even work on this 3-you can fuck off then mate

Because I've been following ReactOS since 2004

Lol that's completely wrong.

if we didn't care, we wouldn't be doing it

that's the whole point, we do care, and the download counts say a whole lot other people also do

"No one cares about your incomplete clone of a fifteen year old OS"

if we didn't care, we wouldn't be doing it

I meant in general, don't care, the people associated with ReactOS most certainly care.

sure of course, it's not too widely known

but that's to be expected: we are still alpha

yes, that's okay, so is the Wine project that you borrow from greatly; yet I've also followed it since 2004

the progress both have made since then is quite impressive

it's opensource

WINE is in a usable state, though, while reactos is not really fit for everyday use

it's opensource

So? It's okay to borrow from open source, I didn't say it wasn't.

you speak like you fucking hate react os but you make no sense at all

Eh, I would disagree... well, if you were using only Windows software atop of Wine, that is.

?? why would you use anything BUT windows software with wine?

non-windows software you can run natively, that's the whole point of it

?? why would you use anything BUT windows software with wine?

That's not what I meant; Wine is meant to be used with a regular Linux OS as a supplement; one would NOT use Linux and then run 100% of their GUI stuff atop of Wine

WINE isn't meant to be a standalone environment, it's only a compatibility layer for running windows programs

WINE isn't meant to be a standalone environment, it's only a compatibility layer for running windows programs

Exactly, and that's why ReactOS isn't ready to be used standalone, both aren't fully feature-complete.

what I mean is

I know what you mean

WINE can get away with having partial support, and still call itself usable

ReactOS can't — partial kernel support means it crashes all the time

🌚I wonder ReactOS and GNU Hurd which could be first usable.

I wish I could help you guys with that

🌚I wonder ReactOS and GNU Hurd which could be first usable.

ReactOS, by far.

can't play an mp3 file

why not? if you install an mp3 decoder in it? ;P

maybe you can run winamp 1.0 ;P

Or install VLC

why not? if you install an mp3 decoder in it? ;P

foobar2000 just fucks reactos

foobar2000 just fucks reactos

foobar2000 isn't the only piece of software in existence that plays MP3s, 'kay

with another software it would crash

with another software it would crash

I wrote my own player called PsyMP3, using libmpg123 and libogg, and it runs just fine on Wine and ReactOS, without crashing.

my own apps also work fine

but now reactos is a hell for anybody who works w/ computers

Only compared to Windows 95.

worse

No.

Unless you think it's perfectly acceptable for Apple to lower the bar for the user's technical skill level

No.

my ass not, windows 95 doesn't crash as often

in which case, dude, WTF?

my ass not, windows 95 doesn't crash as often

I would disagree strongly, Windows 95 crashes far often

ReactOS is on par with Windows 98 first edition for stability

ReactOS is on par with Windows 98 first edition for stability

with windows vista first release

with windows vista first release

Which is equivalent with 95 OSR2 or NT 4.0 SP3

ReactOS is a little better than that as of 0.4.x

Certain use-cases do trigger bugchecks (kernel crashes) more often than others, this I will admit, but it's more stable overall than any Windows 95 release.

maybe this works

http://www.oldware.org/download.php?download=176

it's the very first winamp released version

ReactOS isn't going to bugcheck after 49.6 days of idle uptime simply because it's been up 49.6 days

yeah go download a verison from 20Bc

WinPlay3 32-bit build, mate, it's awesome

in ros?

although, if I have used all 6GB of monthly usage, YouTube still works up to 1.5Mbit/s

wow, is this related to net neutrality in some ways?

dude

that app ran on Windows NT 3.1

the 16-bit build ran on Windows 3.1

yeah but the audio in ros is.... experimental.

;P

The first 32-bit builds ran on Windows 3.1 with Win32s as well

See

although I remember running a newer winamp

I just had to change the output plugin from dsound to waveOut

This is why I wonder why you guys don't just port UniAud from OS/2

It's a port of ALSA from Linux to OS/2

because what we need is a proper working DirectSound

(and a proper working WASAPI — the NT6 low-level audio interface)

because what we need is a proper working DirectSound

Would a proper working DirectSound mean that one could just use regular Windows XP audio drivers?

yes

Okay

Then I was misunderstanding

you can already use them, with waveOut
