Brilliant!

Windows is an albatross. I hate the complex maze of security. You can't strip windows down because everything depends on everything else. Telemetry. WTF? Correct, Unix/Linux is only slightly better.

Unix/Linux is only slightly vastly better.

The only better thing is it's OSS.

0

No, that's just the only thing immediately visible to clueless people.

It just happens it doesn't have much more going for it.

It just happens that you're clueless. It's ok though, someone has to be at the shitty end of the bell curve.

Like all freetards, the blame always lies in the user. Your OS is shit and so are you.

0

Like all low IQ, mentally deficient subhumans, you are too stupid to see all but the simplest of reality.

0

The reality is Linux is a piece of shit and every time I bring up some of the reasons you faggots display grandiose mental gymnastics to somehow shift around the blame everywhere else but on the OS itself.

Your OS is such a gigantic pile of pig shit that it doesn't even have a decent video editor.

0

lol, you're so fucking thick you can't even tell the difference between an OS and a video editor.

0

Wow, I wasn't expecting mental gymnastics to begin already, you sperg.

An OS is without programs is nothing. This simple concept is too advanced for low-functioning autists like you but I already know your kind.

0

I'm just picturing you now, frantically sperging out that other, much smarter people haven't given you good enough digital crayons.

Linux works fine for non retards. I suggest you stick to Windows.

0

I'll stick to anything non-Linux since it's proven to be shit. Hell, you couldn't even decide on an audio stack so you had to make 4.

Windows and MacOS have only one each and both are much better than any of Linux's crap.

I know reality is hard to accept for fags like you but your OS is still shit.

much smarter people haven't given you good enough digital crayons

Is that autistic-speak for "My OS is so underwhelming that no-one wants to develop for it"?

Linux works fine for non retards.

Great. What's your best video editor then? Still waiting for your answer, not for mental gymnastics.

..maybe not today, but don't worry, some other autist gonna take the source code and work with it. Give it another 10

i'd play around with it, but i have my reservations on fucking directly with the christian god

RIP Terry A. Davis 1969-2018.

Did he really pass away or are you being facetious? Looks like the site is down.

1

A quick Google search is turning up reports he died this last week. Not sure as to their veracity.

Side note: I guess I live under a rock. This post is the first I heard of him.

0

A fake Facebook post was spread around but nobody knows for sure yet what happened.

0

Anyone that was a friend of Terry on facebook can see his memorial page.

0

It's been confirmed on Facebook. He died days ago while "hiking", but his family made it known yesterday. Terry's facebook page is now a Memorial.

RIP.

CIA NIGGERS

He may even come out and say that he's never felt happier, and that he's excited about his project—even though he thinks there are conspiracies against him—but in the end he would only be fooling himself. We'll know the truth about him when we'll read about his double tap to the back of the head with a shotgun suicide during a mugging where nothing was stolen while his plane crashed shortly after take-off because he was actually a terrorist colluding with Russia. These things happen.

Fucking niggers got him......

CIA aliens :(

Terry Davis may be our most effective weapon against the crazy globalists. The UN & the evil globalist politicians are inhaling Theocracy and think interdimensional beings talk in their heads and tell them to save the earth and mix the races.

Terry Davis has a direct dialogue with God who told him how to to build his temple line by line.

Jean Claud Juncker's aliens are ilegitimate if God's real chosen says "CIA niggers glow in the dark. If you see them run them over. That's what you do". Couple that with Tay the AI's abandoning the mealy mouthed left, and we have an all powerful modern God on our side.

All your bases are God's

Good thing he is dead then

I believe "CIA glow in the dark niggers" means "people who worship darkness".

They are common in governance because of useless monolithic power worship (though in my view, these humans are just asleep, which also sometimes accurately describes evil acts; they almost always happen out of some form of ignorance that isn't initially understood - tragically, only after the act happens is comprehension gained [the being turns back to the light], or worse...the ignorance is doubled-down and evil rises, though it is still locked to Earth forever and simply eats itself, infinitely...).

I doubt Terry would've had any real troubles with good black people. Our preconceived notions planted in our minds are often strong limitations. To me, this man was a genius and clearly doing God's work - just very different work than we are used to accepting...

As much as I respect the man....yeah he's fucking insane. I couldn't finish watching the video.

0

You should, it's hilarious towards the end.

0

ok the part where he's shit talking his chat had me rolling.

0

He states specifically he's not a pedo.

0

Hes not a pedo

“Glow in the dark CIA niggers” might be the funniest sentence ever uttered in the English language.

The one comment,

I'm starting to think he hit a jogger covered in reflective shit.

Oh, man. I shouldn't be laughing this hard. And yet, here we are.

0

I also think that he may have written some software for the CIA before they slipped a 1/4 cup of LSD into his coffee. Would make a lot of things make sense.

0

Yeah or you know, you could go for debian minimal server if you need a stripped down version of the OS

And if you want it even more stripped down, there's arch

Or this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SliTaz

Or this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiny_Core_Linux it's 11 MB

But it's not Holy.

That's true that's true

Not nearly as parsimonious as TempleOS

Sometimes, I wonder why I do some things. If this is his thing, God bless him.

Looks like Plan 9

I just want to say that you are great. You created an OS. File manager. Something that 99% of programmers would have no clue how to do. Cheers man!

0

It's easy enough to copy existing functionality. The trick is coming up with robust data structures. And the impossibility is coming up with a good design without a team and an audience. Making shit for yourself will never result in something practical. You may have some specific idea for something, but practical implementation and trade-offs ain't gonna happen if you're a lone programmer.

0

You have no idea what you are talking about, but that is cool. That fucker never copied a thing.

0

Of course he did, he and everyone in the last few decades. We've worked out general designs for endless things in computing, so now you just reimplement within the framework, rather than have to re-invent everything. The idea of a filesystem, with hierarchical file arrangement (folders), files themselves as an ordered collection of bytes, etc. Each system adds some unique arrangements or ideas, but for the most part they are doing what's been done. This isn't a bad thing, because systems that do too many things differently are generally not useful.

0

Yeah, I misspoke, he replicated things. Not copy them.

The guy has more skills than you or I will ever have during any week.

Can I just be a prick and offer this game?
Weeeeeeeeeeeee

Yes but will it run Crysis? Gods temple should surely be able to run Crysis

RIP Terry.

What? Why does this matter?

He lives in the OS now...

It really doesn't, it's just a cute project

He dies yesterday i think.

Sounds like something I would create with my autismo powers of logic.

The guy is like a car with a GT500 engine but a honda civic ECM.

0

has the potential to replace

Yeah, how about no.

Rest in peace Terry.

Also, Is there a copy of the final version of the source?

Previously at: http://www.templeos.org/Wb/

He'd fit right in here, how do we invite this guy over?

Terry's unexpected passing has hit me hard. He was a true hacker who accomplished something most of us only aspire to. His illness was not his fault. RIP Terry.

Setting aside David's personal issues (my heart goes out), the project is fascinating. A "C64" on modern hardware. If I could bring him back and work with him, I would 1) get hardware auto config further along, and 2) get the gcc compiler working (yes David, we can keep HolyC) 3) get an IP connection going (a browser would require full graphics), and 4) build in some superb encryption. I think that the strongest value of what he did is when folks want a perfectly sterile OS environment (barring the HD firmware issues), maybe very high speed processing for non-graphics uses, and possibly a high reliability up time platform. As much as I love Linux, the multi-user is a PIA. Plus I like the feel of the C64.. why not! Rest in peace David.

It is very likely that TempleOS will be the ONLY usable OS "someday" on this forbidden rock (perhaps when time divides into itself, a day that grows nearer, as the dark winds howl ahead and some of us can feel it coming). By my observation, Terry/David/Solomon really was a genius, and those who make fun of him may even literally be damned by their own ignorance on these matters - though I hope not. Sadly, only God knows who those people will be - my heart goes out to those folks, as I too have been mired in my ignorance for many years. No longer.

It's perfectly okay to laugh at first, so long as you keep wondering where those laughs are coming from...and you keep changing towards good. If you instead run away, in only animistic fear, towards the darkness, you are very likely to be surprised by just how dark this world will become.

Warnings only work when we are sensitive enough to understand what is being said. We all make fun of that which we don't understand, and sometimes, only (endless) repetition is the mother of learning. There is not a single human that has ever existed who is perfect. Not one. Any interpretation of reality that is different is a carefully procured lie to trap us.

So laugh, if you must, at his most obvious mistakes - but be sure to also laugh at your own, if that is possible, as well. On some level, we are all just like Terry. He is either in Heaven or in his next life, to set him up to get there (to me, he has very obviously done holy work to set up the future to help us off this rock, but such a thought is not understood by the majority yet) - only God knows.

You may make fun of me, too, if you so desire. But I refuse to do that to you. There is much more to be discovered than any of us can do alone, and some of you might yet understand what I say before it's too late.
