Give me resources on operating systems that Google wouldn't give me. Google gives me lots of Pajeet videos on YouTube and overly technical Wikipedia articles.
I have an exam in 13 days. This exam is not a test on how many different flavours of Gentoo I can install, it's about stuff like how OS's handle threads, deadlocking, mutexes, memory management etc.
Course Textbook: codex.cs.yale.edu /avi /os-book /OS9 /slide-dir /
We're still using the 8th edition at my uni for some reason. The course is in Java.

Linux is stable if you know how to use a computer

This is an imageboard, newfriend.

Windows is stable if you know how to use a computer.
October 2, 2016 - 12:40
Well, since MacOS X is UNIX, it's customizable too.
October 2, 2016 - 16:38
Yeah just like when NVidia drivers eject themselves, right?
October 2, 2016 - 16:40
>Windows >Customizable hahahahahahahahaha

>overly technical Wikipedia articles OS development is highly technical. It is expected that by this time, you should be well capable of understanding this shit. Honestly, the only good source I know of for this shit is the OSdev wiki:
wiki.osdev.org /Main_Page
Also, why the fuck is your course using Java? Java is not for low level shit.
October 2, 2016 - 16:49
Well, lol, there was some Java OS.
October 2, 2016 - 16:56
Udacity has a nice course on operating systems.
October 2, 2016 - 16:59
A substantial portion of it was written in pure assembly.
October 2, 2016 - 17:02
Windows is stable and user friendly. MacOS is just user friendly.
October 2, 2016 - 17:04
Wasn't that a bug (and NVIDIA's fault)?
October 2, 2016 - 17:04
That sounds like a terrible experience. When I took OS we only wrote assembly for bootstrapping.
October 2, 2016 - 17:05
Why do people who have clearly never used something pretend to know everything about it?
October 2, 2016 - 17:05
The Java OS was likely not written for a class, and OP's OS class likely is not going to go into actually writing an OS

How is that, specially when windows installed the driver by itself?
October 2, 2016 - 17:24
So? Do you even know what eGPU setup is, child? It's a very nice thing to be able to eject the GPU without crashing the system
October 2, 2016 - 17:48
I posted that from my macbook and then it crashed.
October 2, 2016 - 17:49
You do understand Mac is just a jailed version of linux
October 2, 2016 - 20:34
why are there dinosaurs on every slide ?
October 2, 2016 - 20:53
>just because it's in the windows driver database it means Microsoft made it
Just leave

Darwin isn't UNIX.. At best, it's a POSIX 2003-compliant UNIX-like.
do your own homework kiddo
October 2, 2016 - 21:25
But Linux is just a bastardized version of Unix (Mac OS)
October 2, 2016 - 21:26
>macOS kernel is XNU >XNU stands for XNU is not Unix
hmm..
Really made me think though!
October 2, 2016 - 21:30
>derived from BSD >isn't UNIX Linux is less UNIX, nigga
October 2, 2016 - 21:33
All of those are Unix-likes, none of which are Unix.
October 2, 2016 - 21:36
>LINUX >STABLE what the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckk
October 2, 2016 - 23:17
>POSIX compliant >not UNIX Being POSIX compliant is literally being UNIX you fucking imbecile.

>Debian isn't stable. Nice shitpost.
October 3, 2016 - 00:15
I'm guessing you only think only ATT code = Unix?
October 3, 2016 - 00:19
Read Tenenbaum's Operating systems: design and implementation.

I have an exam tomorrow and I'm still shitposting. Just give up and let the memes flow through you, OP.
