LoseThos: The Linux Killer?
If every new iteration of Ubuntu can be a Windows killer and every new touch screen phone is an iphone killer; why can’t an open source, 64-bit, kernel mode, 100k line of original code, and with a funky name like LoseThos, be a Linux killer? Yeah, laugh it out. But don’t forget the infamous Linus Torvalds post at usenet - where he himself never thought much of the early version of Linux and look how far it has come today.
So what’s so awesome about this OS? As awesome as an early version of an OS written from scratch can be. To highlight some of the interesting aspect of this OS:
- 100% Open Source.
- ISO is a Live CD, so try it without installing it.
- Default kernel mode - screw security! We will crash it LIVE!
- “Your MultiCore experience with LoseThos will be second to none.”
- It reboots in 2 seconds.
- Has a new programming language based on C/C++.
So if you are a sucker for trying out new OS and tired of rebranded distro, you should check it out.

Most of the strength of any OS is the apps. That’s why linux can’t make a dent in the desktop market. That’s why windows is only starting to catch up to *nix in the server market. Without the apps, it is no different from SkyOS or Syllable.
Its not that linux doesn’t have the apps to compete in the desktop market as much as the fact that alot of people still think that it doesn’t have apps and everything is in command line. It just needs some heavy duty advertising.
Ha, cool, a new hand-coded OS! I think I might want to try that out… lol.
Wow, feels like the second coming of the C64. Or better its bigger brother, where 64 has a totally different meaning.
I personally welcome our spare-time programming overlords!
It can be a good inspiration for improve Linux, I do not thing it should be an alternative. Perhaps for making video games booting from CD/DVD. But who knows, perhaps will kill Linux.
its not that Linux lack of application as its lack of application easy to deploy and install (Debian almost there)
i can’t Imagen if MS-Exchange was done in Linux, then only handful of people could install it and use it.
Linux has to move on from; you need Phd in Linux to install an application; to GUI friendly and Wizard style installation.
its heart breaking to see all these developments in Linux are not united. (and no, its not in Linux power all these diversity)
Most of what’s inside linux today can keep it from being driven by command line. Linux has thousands of apps.
You don’t need a phd in linux to install software. Everything in linux today is pretty much gui only driven. When you see people using command line, it could be there preference. I’m an experienced linux user, so I like installing software through command line because it’s faster than firing up the gui front end first. Before that i was always opening synaptic package manager to install apps as easy as clicking a check mark and clicking the apply button.
You guys are all idiots anyway. Do you know how to talk about losethos in a topic purely geared towards it? Just a bunch of trolling fags.
