I do have to say it has been weird and awesome to hear you guys talk about stuff I learned in college this semester. Keep doing what your doing Linus, loving it all!
Computers have been around a lot longer than PCs. You have to go back at least the 1950's to get the first operating systems. The first OS's with which I worked were those designed for the IBM 360 system in the late 1960's. And even then they supported multi-tasking and had true memory management that protected one user's data from other processes.
I knew you guys used the Fluttershy squee in one of your earlier videos (Firewall). This video proves it (2:08). *EDIT:* Well seems they used it here too at 3:40
So basically Windows, OS X, or linux uses bootstrapt, which goes into the automatic booter of the CPU and then as soon as you interact with the system it sends out requests made out of binary code to the CPU every millisecond to enable you to move the cursor and more and the system uses graphical design to display images onto the video card. then you can open multiple programs with multitasking which is pretty self-explanatory. It sends out more requests to the cpu in order for the system to open up multiple tabs of things.
dc2008242 It's practically Linux because the guy who first designed a Linux operating system was called Linus. The OS is named after him not the other way around
***** ...except it's more stable, more secure, lighter to run, faster, and 100% free. As well as infinitely customizable. You got it the wrong way around, there's no reason to use anything BUT linux unless you really need a program that only works on a different platform.
Hi Techquickie thank you for subtitles in your videos, its so more easy to understand for who that dont have english as primary language. Hope you keep doing this and make this change, if its possible, in your older videos that dont have that option.
vgamesx1 Not sure what you are referring to, perhaps you could elaborate a bit? My point is that FreeBSD is what OSX is based on, plain and simple. Just like Android is based on Linux, not that hard to figure out. not sure where the "joke" comes into play per this discussion.
Hi!! My name is Daniela Gutiérrez and I’m from a school in Mexico!! Thank you so much for uploading this video! I think that it has very complete information, it’s quite interesting knowing the complex process that it takes to a computer to do such a simple seeming task!!
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
2:09 "MyLittlePony s1e5.mp4" lol, I love it when Linus inserts little things about MLP also: "RESOURCE HOG" "RESOURCE HOG 2" "Hello Kitty.exe" EDIT: THERE'S EVEN A PONY SQUEE AT 3:42
I am old enough to remember the C/PM and MSDOS operating systems. Back in those days any program could access all the hardware directly. The programs did this to speed things up on these slow computers. About the only thing the operating system was used for was disk drive input and output of files.
Could you do a video explaining what Optical Drives are and the things to consider when buying one? Just a thought, the internet seems pretty sparse on this subject.
Howdy. Back in the days of DOS 5 it was said the OS manages files and folders. Win 3.1 was said to be a graphical interface to the OS. Files are generated with applications. These days these distinctions are blurred. Also has hardware management become an important part of the OS. Regards.
Not sure how easy it would be, but I have a suggestion for tech quickies. You could possibly cover the osi model? And if its a stupid idea, please don't comment hate :/
Continuing on in your series, may I suggest the wonderful subject of Memory Managers (MMU, MPU, Virtual Memory vs physical memory, memory access violations, the luscious SEGFAULT/SEGV that torments many beginner programmers). Also, did you already cover the Windows BSOD? If so my bad.. I have not watched all of these yet... (historically Win32 not the first OSes to see these, I grew up being annoyed at Amiga Guru Meditations many times). Nice set of topics so far...
Perhaps you could settle an argument, Linus... A friend of mine said last week that contemporary Windows versions still using paging at the hardware level. I have a hard time believing that. So, is it true? Does Windows 10/11 still use 640k pages when addressing memory at the hardware level?
I bet that if apps gets ported from android to ios and visa versa, that all they need to do is use is a device driver and/or change the encryption key for it to be accepted by that other operation system.
what makes most linux distros fast is because the kernel and OS are very minimal. They hardly have any bloatware to slow down the machine. They run what is necessary and that is it. Further, there is constant active development on the linux kernel done by millions of people everyday so they can tweak, and tweak, and tweak code the maximum performance.
I imagine that in a few years there will be a As Fast As Possible explaining a topic with only video redirects to other As Fast As Possibles explaining all the sub-topics.
Just a question, I don't own a Mac so I don't know, do Macs have drivers? I watched this certain video once asking professors of a certain University about Macs and PCs, and Mac owners generally loved their machines because it didn't need to install any "confusing drivers", just run and go.
ApexPredator_ yes there are drivers, like any modern operating system. The only difference is the update channel goes through apple rather than the user, which actually leads to the confusion of whether OSX has drivers to begin with. Because apple hardware is typically very vertically controlled, all drivers are prepackaged into os updates rather than a separate installation. its tightly controlled and certified. so to answer your question both claims are correct, there IS a driver, but you still can just "run and go" as its all preloaded into the os.
ApexPredator_ Oh, they have drivers all right. Anyone who has built a Hackintosh rig knows the pain of loading the right *.kext so the OS doesn't go belly-up if the hardware doesn't match Apple's specifications 100%. The reason drivers are rarely a problem for Mac users is that the hardware it is distributed with is tightly controlled and the OS comes preloaded with all of the drivers it needs, out of the box. Unfortunately, it is literally impossible for OS X talk to anything unsupported by Apple, and it will fail very noisily if you don't carefully and diligently select your hardware beforehand, as Apple provides no fallback drivers and no safety guarantees. Third party official drivers are basically nonexistent for Macs, and Apple clearly states the illegality of writing and freely redistributing them without explicit approval. However, that certainly doesn't stop the Hackintosh community from patching and writing custom *.kext drivers of their own so people can use OS X with the latest whiz-bang video cards and whatnot.
LinusTechTips 3 videos on Operating Systems and only about 30 seconds about Linux and no mention of BSD? Really? Also, while Windows and Mac OS X have built in user interfaces, Linux and BSD do not. Even in Windows and Mac OS X, the UI is a userspace process for security reasons (except, for some reason, font rendering in Windows.)
WayZHC In a sense the kernel is what defines the OS. It does all the important work. Everything else is just thrown into the package for convenience for the end user.
WayZHC I know very well that a kernel alone is useless, just like a car is useless without a steering wheel. That doesn't mean that the collection of Linux distros has a lot of things in common. There are a lot of general things you can say that hold true for nearly all UNIX-like OSes. Anyway. Who really cares about the "overal" comparison. Use the right tool for the right job, use what works for you.
The OS is the kernel plus the libraries and tools required to interact with it. That may or may not mean GUI, but Linux by itself is definitely not an OS. It has no interface at all, not even a shell.
UntouchedWagons There is a thing called a Page Table that keeps track of what physical memory maps to what virtual memory. The OS then keeps a table of which pages belong to which processes.
UntouchedWagons MMU, (Memory Manager Unit) which manages the page table. Essentially each program runs in the same memory space (starting address is constant) but these assigned memory spaces are virtual.
Hey, linus, you sould explain Why can't always just pop in the hard drive of any random desktop computer with an OS already on it into another and have it boot inside a laptop.... cause that's fun and stuff.
alex kohm The problem is that many of the installed drivers don't match the new hardware. Suddenly the OS is struggling to communicate with the hardware, and more often than not may BSOD (or kernel panic for you Linux, BSD, and OS X users).
DutchRedGaming sir, could you not so quickly rush to your primitive and apelike instinct of cursing at the dumbest things? in the words of Will smith "stop cussing cuz you're not good at it"
+Potating Potato See a common misconception of downloading ram is the amount of ram you need to download it. It usually takes quite a bit of system memory to "unpack" the file for the installation. Unfortunately that makes it almost impossible to download more ram. Hope that helps! Also all the good ram torrents have too many seeds and downloads can take up to weeks for even just a 4gb upgrade.
It's pretty good considering it's market share. There's tonnes of software for it just no adobe/microsoft stuff. But hey i'm not here to convince anyone to switch to it,it's still kind of user-unfriendly and has a long way to go to appeal to the common folk.But if programming is your thing (In my case x86 asm) then it's the perfect OS for you.
Sorry i'm dumb, but is it like, if someone make a computer, then when your on that computer, you need a OS, but there is like hardwares CPU screen and stuff but to like make it work and do things on it, you need an OS?
A question that popped into mu head while watching this. Would killing explore.exe help improve game performance? Not that I need that on my pc but curious. I have a gaming pc and I wouldn't see any difference as far as I am aware.
About a year late, and I don't have Windows, so I cannot check for sure, but probably not. Any file managers worth their salt don't use any CPU when they are in the background, only a little bit of RAM. Unless you are running out of RAM on your system, it won't really give you any performance boost.
If someone is building a new PC they might as well go with Windows 7 since you'll save some money instead of going with 8.1. We'll all receive the same upgrade this summer to 10.
Anti-virus is pretty over-rated. I honestly just use MSE since it never bothers me. I do have Malewarebytes though since its so good. These two together is good enough.

This episode of _As Fast as Possible_ is definitely 20% cooler than the other episodes.
So basically Windows, OS X, or linux uses bootstrapt, which goes into the automatic booter of the CPU and then as soon as you interact with the system it sends out requests made out of binary code to the CPU every millisecond to enable you to move the cursor and more and the system uses graphical design to display images onto the video card. then you can open multiple programs with multitasking which is pretty self-explanatory.

michael weiss Making a joke = fan of something, Right... you must be the fan around here.
vgamesx1 Not sure what you are referring to, perhaps you could elaborate a bit?
My point is that FreeBSD is what OSX is based on, plain and simple.
Just like Android is based on Linux, not that hard to figure out.
not sure where the "joke" comes into play per this discussion.

You seem to confuse drivers with compilers.
A driver is not needed for any system, only for peripherals or ADVANCED features.

Best time ever for these videos to come out if your doing A2 ICT lol
Linux as fast as possible? Like what makes it special, pro's and cons. Also, could you please do a 1 month with linux thing like you did with OSX?
what makes most linux distros fast is because the kernel and OS are very minimal. They hardly have any bloatware to slow down the machine. They run what is necessary and that is it.
Further, there is constant active development on the linux kernel done by millions of people everyday so they can tweak, and tweak, and tweak code the maximum performance.

So, how the hell does energy make computers function and make its parts work the way they do.
please explain what is Kernel
Forgot the part after boot strap the kernel.
Has any one tried pressing the left arrow button on the keyboard repeatedly as soon as the vid starts? This guy is a drummer alright!
when he said its memory manager is that also called the kernel. Trying not to get too confused
I had an argument once where someone tried telling me that windows 10 isnt a program/batch there-of...
People say they can hack me, but what they don't realise is that I have Norton Antivirus installed on my system, I'm practically indestructible.

why is linus in multiple of my hw tasks
Can we uninstall 2020 and re install it cos this one has a Virus
Points to Linus, for calling the Apple Beach Ball Thing... A Beach Ball.
You forgot to link "virtual memory" by ehamberg! +linustechtips
Whoever edited this video is amazing haha
What would you suggest if you wanted to get away from windows but still user friendly?
Random question: How do I download more ram?
+Potating Potato See a common misconception of downloading ram is the amount of ram you need to download it. It usually takes quite a bit of system memory to "unpack" the file for the installation. Unfortunately that makes it almost impossible to download more ram. Hope that helps! Also all the good ram torrents have too many seeds and downloads can take up to weeks for even just a 4gb upgrade.
So, who's love button is the space bar?
