a bare Linux "kernel" provides enough features on its own to do all the requisite actions of an operating system
in particular, a booted Linux kernel can start an application interactively, which lets it handily satisfy basically every definition of an OS other than those defined by Richard Stallman, who is incredibly jealous that the GNU kernel (HURD) is a pile of shit that no one cares about and so he tries to leech into Linux's success by claiming that Linux NEEDS the rest of the GNU software to operate and cries out that a full "Linux Operating System" would be GNU/Linux

I like RMS for a lot of reasons but he has been pretty self sabotaging to his own cause for the last 30 or so years.

In a sense I think it would've been good if RMS died immediately after the Linux kernal released and people started using it with GNU because then someone else would've had to have taken the torch as EFFECTIVELY the leader of the entire free software movement who woulnd't have been as self-sabotaging as stallman

linux has a gorillion problems as a desktop OS and the only REALLY good reasons for switching started with like Windows 10 or so (maybe 8.x) which started sending obscene amounts of telemetry data (read: MS is checking your loli hentai and would cheerfully hand over that data if you lived in a country where loli isn't legal)
also windows 11's interface blows (no modern Linux DE is better though, they all went to shit around when GTK3 started to get pushed, and my conspiracy theory is that GNOME 3 was a deliberate effort to ensure that the "year of the Linux Desktop" never happened, because just before that point, it was very easy to suggest ordinary people try Linux, and even if they didn't love it or needed Windows, they'd at least like it back in the GNOME 2 days)

the most recent thing with Recall is the one thing that is hyper-pushing me towards Linux as a daily driver main OS for the first time in like 14 years
I don't want everything I do and see on the computer to be automatically categorized in a way that is absolutely a way to generate evidence against someone

it's just bleak
maybe your nation doesn't care about what you're doing if you aren't making bombs/drugs/photo cp (and really, it probably doesn't care!) but you can't depend on that and everything has hyper-veered into "powerful corporations now know more about you than you could possibly remember and can wield that as leverage at any time"

im currently using one but i do not feel comfortable
too bad everything is centered about windows
i wish to fully convert to linuxism but the sin of windows had taken deep roots in me...
if i get to be a father i will beat my kids for using anything that is not open source, i will not pass down the sin any further happy
my kids will be able to set up a custom made darkweb drug market at 7 with perfect opsec and i will give them lunch money in untaxable monero!

PCSX2 2.0 drops W7/8 support.
>With this release, Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 support are gone. The new minimum Windows version is Windows 10 build 1809. We dropped support for these operating systems at the same time as Microsoft. PCSX2's functionality on these operating systems has since ceased as modern features such as fastmem, covered later below, are added to propel PCSX2 into the future.
