Haiku has always been the future, but unfortunately it isn't really usable as your main OS. Treat it like TempleOS: Be a white man and boot the iso file in a VM and play around. Right now, the best option is to email people behind Linux kernel and try to make them listen to reason. If that doesn't work, then OpenBSD, NetBSD and Dragonfly BSD are the only realistic alternatives to Linux. Has anyone used OpenIndiana?

>If you want to know what a really good desktop OS looks like, take a look at Haiku OS. It has a good looking and consistent GUI that just works, and as a result it's simple and convenient to use. The installer works flawlessly in under a minute. Due to it's Unix-like underpinnings, you get a fantastic file system (BeFS) and other tools like Bash, and partial POSIX compliance makes porting a lot easier. It uses a hybrid kernel that's rock solid and offers many of the features of a full microkernel, including the isolation of device drivers.
▶ No.973039
>>972710
Architectural decisions do affect the end user. Everything in GNU/Linux systems is so modular yet everything has dependencies, that the further down you go it's just a huge clusterfuck of impending obsolescence of software the user may want or need. Consider gtk revisions, the move from X to Wayland, systemd's scope creep, etc. Many normalfags users that can't be assed to maintain their own software will resent when changes to the distro fucks their shit up. They will also notice how long it takes to boot up or shutdown. Haiku and Windows have it right, the desktop environment, window manager, and display server, and the GUI API should be a tightly integrated standard thing so application developers don't need to worry about changes fucking them over and forcing massive rewrites. The users also benefit from the added consistency between applications. You don't end up with one app having a file picker without thumbnails and one having a kick-ass for picker. Windows however is bloated as fuck (although that's gotten better recently despite their increase in CIA nigger spyware and kikery) and makes money off forcing you to buy new versions of Windows so breaks compatibility between versions on purpose (planned obsolescence).

Posting from Haiku OS nightly build Live ISO running from qemu.
It is kinda slow without KVM enabled, but I remember earlier releases running quite nicely on bare metal.
What I also remember is driver issues, especially video (only VESA-BIOS resolutions, none of them fitted my screen) and wifi (probably can be fixed by installing necessary blobs manually?).
Sadly I can't test those drivers in a virtual machine.
Also, I just learned that Haiku OS is written in C++.

Illumos is our best bet probably. It's a fork of OpenSolaris so it has first rate ZFS support. It also supports KVM and Linux LX containers (it can run native Linux programs). Also has a great package manager with plenty of packages. I've been using OmniOS on my home server since 2014 and it's been great. It has real hardware support.

Illumos (Solaris) is officially supported both in a Virtualbox host and guest with the guest additions.

I've installed Haiku nighly build on a slow-ass dual core Atom 1.66 GHz computer with 2GB ram. I can play anime in 480P resolution and shitpost on 8chan, which is all I really did with my computer anyway.
Now I just need to figure out how to compile GIMP and all its dependencies, and then I'll install it on my fast quad core. Linux and Wangblows were barely usable on my dual core, and Haiku was a big improvement. I'm excited to see how fast it will be on my quad core.
Haiku is also a great OS politics-wise because it states it is a meritocratic project. I'll send an email to the developers stating how I appreciate that, and I advise everyone else using Haiku to do so as well - we can't let the kikes get away with complaining about everything they don't like.

Forking is their exact tactics and none of their projects have survived because their are not interested in code, but the original projects panicked and introduced a CoC in their project to appease the trolls.
So to draw on these snowflake trolls experiences forking is not a bad solution, even as only a political statement, but I think it would be more effective to do a fork on hackers terms where it is still okay too have a hackerish humour. That is what we are defending here and I believe that is what most real hackers want (not fond of the man). Then perhaps the original project would feel a bit of a panic and self reflection and introduce an anti-CoC.

From the FAQ
>Will there be a 64-bit version of Haiku?
>Yes. For R1 we are targeting two architectures, 32-bit x86 (i586 and newer) and 64-bit x86_64. The 32-bit release is compatible with the BeOS at a binary and API level. The 64-bit release is not binary compatible with BeOS, but still enjoys compatibility with the powerful BeOS API (while offering modern features). The 32-bit Haiku release can run most BeOS applications without modification or recompiling.
The 64-bit night lies are stable-ish and R1 Beta should be released soon.

Haiku is designed for desktop usage; this means:
- the UI toolkit is multithreaded
- much of the API is internally multithreaded
- there is an API for 'converters' that allow you to, for example, turn a PDF into a PNG or an mp4 into a webm without the program actually knowing about its inputs
- the UI toolkit itself is tightly integrated into the rest of the OS
- it is not tied down by backwards compatibility dating to the 60s

Haiku OS is fun to use on old PCs you have laying around but it isn't really great as a day to day OS.
>outdated FreeBSD drivers and uses the CPU to render graphics through their wonky ass display server
>no RNDIS implementation or equivalent USB interface for tethering your phone in the event there's no WLAN driver
>single user operating system so basically everything runs as root, networking is insecure with wide open ports out of the box
But at least it offers some POSIX compliance through the shell, so you can port over Unix command line programs. But with the stuff I mentioned above it feels like a weird mix of MacOS 9 and gimped Unix. It needs to be pulled up to speed in regards to security especially if it's ever to become a serious desktop OS. A lot of people shit on Unix and Unix-like systems but I don't see a better alternative.

I'm running OpenIndiana. I've worked with Solaris in the past, so apart from a lack of CDE/Motif I feel right at home. I'm working on compiling Motif and MWM right now just for the hell of it. The normal version is throwing a lot of errors so I've been tweaking things as needed. I'm currently working with GCC, which compiles C code just fine.
The CoC they have also doesn't bother me. There's no SJW shit in it.

How the fuck do you get OpenIndiana to actually boot properly? Every time I use OpenIndiana I can't get past the fucking screen telling you to either use the single-user mode or muti-user mode, then the screen shits itself and it won't go anywhere past that.

I'm actually using hardware that has/had official Solaris support (according to some Oracle docs I read).
Make sure that your hardware is compatible with Solaris for the most part. You really just need to worry about the graphics, audio, and wireless. Audio generally works out of the box for almost every device. Same with Ethernet. Wireless wouldn't prevent you from booting, so make sure your graphics card is supported. Most Intel graphics work out of the box. I'm not really sure what else to tell you. If you manage to get it to boot it'll have you select a language and boot you to the MATE desktop where you can run the graphical installer, which includes disk partitioning tools and stuff. It's a lot like installing Ubuntu MATE.

I'm using a W520 right now, and it says on the site that while USB3.0 doesn't work, W520s are supported. Problem is all my USB ports are USB3.0, so I'm thinking that may be the problem. Fortunately I have a USB2.0 extension so maybe I can try it with that. Thanks for the help though.

I have pretty high hopes for Haiku. It's still pretty rough but my goodness is it fast. The only problems I've had with it thus far is not being able to mount XFS and Btrfs drives. When I try to, it goes into a kernel panic. Maybe in a later update we can see more filesystem support.
My main PC is dual-booted with Gentoo and Haiku and I feel at this moment I have the best of both worlds. A Linux install with a pre-CoC kernel (4.14.65) that I can have fun fine-tuning and playing games, and a Haiku install to have something for the future before Linux completely goes to shit. I don't have the knowledge yet, but I want to make a game for Haiku. I seriously think the OS has potential for a "killer app" like the one I have in mind, once it gets 3D acceleration support.
▶ No.982865
Looks neat. What does it have in the way of compilers and libraries? Does it use GCC? It would need to have its own implementation of the standard library then, right? I checked out something called KolibriOS once. It was interesting, but everything had to be written in x86 assembly.

Speaking of which, Blender has also been ported to Haiku, though on my setup the UI is glitchy.

Haiku kernel kept crashing on my t40 thinkpad. No idea why. It didn't feel very responsive either, but overall I still liked it. So far the only OS that can really function with modern stuff that has worked well on my t40 is XP. I suppose 2000 would work as well. Every linux distro I tried was horribly unresponsive.
I finally decided to use i3 instead of xfce and it's a lot quicker, but when I have some more free time I'll try haiku again on a newer laptop and see how that goes.
