My third ReactOS installation is going to be in an ASUS eee x101, with Intel Atom. Recycling old computers.

Chinese way of thinking, I guess?

lmao

Well, hello there everyone !

Nice to see some new people over there

Hello there

Hello

I see react os can run windows programs too

Wait, how could you send GIFs when I still can't

Wait, how could you send GIFs when I still can't

Thats not a gif but sticker.

Animated sticker.

I see react os can run windows programs too

It's the main purpose of ReactOS : an opensource Windows Clone

Animated sticker.

Yup, I can't send stickers either

Windows clone 😲

Not windows will be mad to see this?

Its based on linux kernel right?

Windows clone 😲

Yeah, it aims to reimplement every single function of Windows, right now the main focus is getting proper NT 5.2 support

Its based on linux kernel right?

ReactOS isn't a Linux distro, it doesn't have the Linux kernel, although it uses some components you may find in Wine, the Windows compatibility layer for Linux

Yup, I can't send stickers either

ReactOS is less than 25 years old, I don't know the exact date, and no one knows as it isn't clear It started as an early private project way earlier

Yup, I can't send stickers either

there's a reason.

I see react os can run windows programs too

that's kind of the point of reactos, being (and i quote) "binary-compatible with computer programs and device drivers made for Windows Server 2003 and later versions"

there's a reason.

There aren't any reasons anymore

Not windows will be mad to see this?

*microsoft

There aren't any reasons anymore

highly doubt it

Born in 1998, slightly newer than Linux (Wikipedia)

Well, ReactOS started on an unknown 1998 day However there was an earlier project that targeted Win9x clone

And Windows used law for stopping the growing process.

Because you are Lothaire, the only one Lothaire.

ReactOS isn't a Linux distro, it doesn't have the Linux kernel, although it uses some components you may find in Wine, the Windows compatibility layer for Linux

Anything from any unix kernel or completely independent?

Nothing from linux/unix

Only from wine but that is not linux/unix itself

True

This is flex.

Atom cores, then must not be amd64 at all

My Intel Atom N550 supports amd64 instruction set

My Intel Atom N550 supports amd64 instruction set

It's a way newer SKU than the N2xx series

Also they do support DDR3 low speed single channel and has the GMA 3150 if I remember correctly

Because you are Lothaire, the only one Lothaire.

My name is pretty rare tbh I only know 3 people called Lothaire One that happen to live tens of kilometers away One that I don't even remember who he was,but that was at the time when I played Clash Of Clans And there's one dude called Lothaire in TES V at Windhelm iirc

Where you from?

Where you from?

I'm from South West France

ok, im from Spain, Madrid. Thereis a lot of developers in France participating in this and other Free OS. How much ReactOS develpers are for France?

Well nice, that's not that far honestly, 30 mins away from Spain

Nothing from linux/unix

Then what kernel it made of.

Then what kernel it made of.

Built from the ground up Windows NT kernel

Then what kernel it made of.

It's made of C code 🤣

Its made like Windows was once made

ReactOS is the reason why I bought Server 2003 of ebay for 5€ 😅

Nice ! However I wish that ROS will never create NTFS partitions for an obvious reason

One day it would be able to create them for another one obvious reason 😏

Well, installing ReactOS on an NTFS partition has no real advantage as we discussed earlier

sure it does. What do you have against NTFS?

sure it does. What do you have against NTFS?

Because it's basically what MS does, and NTFS isn't FULLY open source

And doing what MS does it the goal of ReactOS, but copying the bad stuff feels weird to me

NTFS is a file system, not a software project. and again: what do you have against NTFS?

NT 5.2 works without having an NTFS partition

And doing what MS does it the goal of ReactOS, but copying the bad stuff feels weird to me

NTFS is not "bad stuff"

NTFS is a file system, not a software project. and again: what do you have against NTFS?

It has been a project licensed by Microsoftn then there has been an open source implementation

You still aren't answering the question. Why do you think it's "bad stuff"?

Because it's far from the fastest file system lmao

The two best file systems right now are XFS and ZFS

"fastest" is mainly a matter of implementation, and if that's your standard, ZFS loses on speed.

ZFS actually has a shot at providing all the capabilities NTFS has, XFS does not.

"fastest" is mainly a matter of implementation, and if that's your standard, ZFS loses on speed.

Well, it really depends on the workflow, phoronix made a showdown, let me find it

Phoronix doesn't do good benchmarks, and it really doesn't matter if there's no ReactOS ntfs.drv to compare yet.

So, just to be clear, NTFS is "bad stuff" because it's not "the fastest." OK then. Totally insufficient reasoning to avoid it.

Well, I mean, they aren't the best benchmarkers, as they do Ubuntu stuff Feels really weird as they do pro speech
