Andreas lookin a bit different today 🤔

[@hampus23]

😂😂

[@Dan-km8zy]

New glasses or something I dunno

[@yeppiidev]

@@Dan-km8zy I think he grew some beard

[@aidennwitz]

it's a new haircut

[@fr0zi]

He just didn't shave

[@teenspirit1]

Just casually clicking around, opening terminal windows, selecting text, realizing that all of this had to be painstakingly coded by a few enthusiasts literally from bare metal up blows my mind.

I just made a video covering SerenityOS! I'd love to hear your thoughts

[@ttrss]

Nice video!

[@ericdanielski4802]

​@@ttrssAbsolutely.

[@Siminfrance]

Thanks for the updates, I just miss the coding videos ... :(, that what I subscribed for originally...
Looks like Andreas is moving away from SerenityOS and only concentrating on Ladybird now.
I used to love the channel for the coding ...
I am happy that the project is moving along ... but watching monthly update videos is not really the same...

[@kreuner11]

That's not really true, he's working on SerenityOS and that includes Ladybird and the whole environment. He simply is not a big content creator to pump out videos all the time

[@Siminfrance]

@@kreuner11 never said anything about "big content creator pumping out videos", read my comment again.

[@circllastname9950]

Slight clarification that cubiclove simply made the icon for the Screenshot application, so I credited them in the commit.

[@PanSebix]

Thank you very much for the video. I appreciate your effort to explain things during the first 8 minutes of the video! I still don't get it though, but I appreciate! Cool stuff.

[@tato-chip7612]

God damn Andreas grew hair again and a beard!

[@kneekoo]

10:29 FAT12 is used on floppies.

[@jimmym8741]

Beautiful

[@kreuner11]

You should check out if the loop device works to make a fat file system and try to write to it 🤔

[@borglessborglet]

not flashing?! :D are you kidding? you guys are finding bugs compilers!... if that is not flashing.. then I am afraid to ask.. how flashy is looking for you? lol...

[@b3daz]

needs mesa too. :)

[@DrVektor]

will serenity os be able to compitable with amd radeon gpus near times? Thanks and may the easy come

[@kreuner11]

Not until someone works on that

[@Wingnut353]

There is some work on Haiku for this also but its pretty much stalled again it appears.

[@yeppiidev]

i don't think there is any hardware gpu support as of now, and that is until someone goes out and works on one

[@kreuner11]

@@yeppiidev there's some Intel framebuffer support

[@yeppiidev]

@@kreuner11 i was talking about discrete graphics

[@raulguerreroflores1460]

nvidia drivers can be installed ?

[@britneyfreek]

a little ot but i spontaneously wondered how a dark cairo ui would look like…

[@tngaskell]

What's good hardware these days if you want to use SerenityOS to operate a real system, not a VM?

[@kreuner11]

Honestly not a lot is supported, but an older computer with the right characteristics might work

[@djtomoy]

Can it play Minecraft?

[@kreuner11]

If the Java port is functional enough (if at all), maybe? But almost certainly no

[@yastepan]

classicube works

[@kneekoo]

VoxeLibre would work if the Minetest game engine gets ported on the OS. It needs way less resources compared to Minecraft, so it should be snappy on SerenityOS.

[@luv2stack]

Is anyone actually using this os?

[@ericdanielski4802]

Nice question.

[@ericdanielski4802]

Nice question.

[@luv2stack]

Thanks.

[@luv2stack]

Thanks.

[@kreuner11]

The developers are making it for fun
