Audio working, too!

Now just hw acceleration is needed, and it will be perfect

what next, the crack for the linux kernel???

Activation crack for ReactOS

Activation crack for ReactOS

i totally need a keygen for reactos! someone should create it as a joke

IMHO it would be funny, just one button "push to activate your version of reactos" and then opens the link of the gpl license on the browser, or the text in the notepad 🤣

reactos, the first open source os with a keygen included

I thought about making and submitting an April Fools PR to add product keys and/or activation. Maybe next year.

nah, it's too good to wait

we really need some benchmarch comparison, like superpi, with the same hw and reactos and a windows version

question, does reactos (still) support 3dnow?

On this note, if anyone speaks Portuguese and wants to learn Reverse Engineering for x86, here is a free course: https://t.me/+MG1ZwNfrylEwY2I0 It's focused on NT. Also has links for learning programming logic and C (based on GNU's C course/book). They are all free courses - ie, made free by the authors. From then on, you could learn the NT API and/or Internals and maybe Help the ReactOS project...

fluting the pixels with the truth

Anyone else @ GPN?

Explanation is needed, what are the benefits?

I think some programs will take benefit of these instructions

ok, i'm back. tbh, intel's implementation of avx is quite dumb. when you ask for avx instructions, first the cpu starts a ramping phase, about 56k cycles long. during this phase, avx instructions are executed using the sse unit, which is half as wide, so the speed is one half. then, avx unit starts and works, throttling down the cpu due to thermal constraints.

as far as i can recall, the best instruction set was 3dnow. many instructions were totally transparent to the os, so you didn't need to adapt your os in order to use them, they automatically started instead of the related x86 instructions. then ofc you could optimize your code for 3dnow, directx 7 did this for sw t&l support. the only limitations were due to using the same unit as mmx/fpu, and so it could do 2 instructions per cycle, but only a multiplication or an addition in a single clock. wtf, i'm old and my memory is fubar.

75 mb Windows ? How ?!?!?!

Because it is ReactOS, no trash only most important components.

And almost no integrated drivers 😂😂

Does it mean that I can't install Asus drivers for my wireless card ?

Something went wrong...

Why I can't?

You can try

My pc doesn't see this image as boot

My pc doesn't see this image as boot

Do you have image for proper architecture? Do you open boot menu?

Which architecture?

Which architecture?

X64

Do you have image for proper architecture? Do you open boot menu?

It's MacBook Air

Only nightly images are available for x86-64

A lot of things can work wrong

I already install x86 image on VBox

is it works?

Yes

But not so fast...

It is still a lot of work to do

Sunset of QEMU

They have a point

Yes, point is almost not questionable. But still they will be left behind, if they keep this rule longer than year

Only massive government like US or EU with huge restrictive laws can save/protect projects who refuse to accept AI code

LLMs are garbage. Huge win for QEMU

They have a point

they have more than one, bcs ai generators could not only produce unoptimized or hard to debug code, but also there could be license issues

man if only ReactOS would follow in the same steps

Is reactos allowing AI generated code? 🤔

I hope not.

Almost not connected to internet. If only using isolated training with programming language, ReactOS sources, free specifications..

At the very least the author should understand the code beyond 'it works' lol

Nothing is going to happen with the project. Or you think somebody will make another QEMU with AI within a year?

One year is enough for project to begin stagnation. Somebody can make a fork. Or another similar project can steal the attention of QEMU users/developers

It looks unlikely but still not impossible :) for example it took one year for Google Chrome to become something from nothing.

wtf, it had literally one of the biggest companies in the world to back it

Yes, so why not again?)

It wasn't nothing tho, it is build off the back of apple

Also i don't think a browser is comparable to the linux kernel or qemu 🤔

Yes, so why not again?)

What company will back a fork that is made solely to accept ai slop?

We will know when it happens 😉

As of now, ai is somewhat like a giant grep. The big problem is the sources it uses, that could be tainted and unlawful.

You do know ai ignores license right? So using it as is means proprietary code can sneak in.....and that means risking getting sued over it ;)

Would MS sue itself (Github was bought by MS) by storing itself the ilegal content and feeding the AI with it?

I don't think so.

Who in turn took KDE's KHTML

Would MS sue itself (Github was bought by MS) by storing itself the ilegal content and feeding the AI with it?

why not? i remember fud and eee

like i remember when they said that amd cpus couldn't run some x86 programs, while intel could

i am old enough to remember a lot of bs made by the wintel duo

I insist in the sue themselves. No sense

if it advantages them, they would do it. sadly it's a corporation, not an issue if it helps them to keep their advantage.

https://www.webpronews.com/microsoft-sued-over-ai-use-of-copyrighted-works/ also, microsoft is already in troubles due to ai on other fields. i would not be surprised if repercussions hit ai code generators, too

Still: they can't sue themselves.

technically yes, in the usa it is allowed with a derivative suit

No, but the codeowners could sue MS and whoever kanged their code ;)
