>Why aren't you running an Amiga Workbench 3.X system

leaving the linuxsphere removes a lot of access to software that no one has the time to completely port and recompile

a solution to that is running a linux content server for pulling and running content and then converting and pushing it to a non-Linux client OS

>>57907620
Amiga OS3 came with the Amiga 1200 circa 1990.

>>57907620
>leaving the linuxsphere removes a lot of access to software
FreeBSD has a linux layer, with few exceptions, anything that runs on linux runs on freebsd

>>57907755

since FreeBSD is functionally identical to early Linux, what are the benefits of using it over Linux; is the source code cleaner? are processes easier to micromanage?

>with few exceptions

>>57907918
Better GPU performance
Faster boot times
More efficient (Unix philosophy)
Things in BSD are just better than Linux. Every program does its job and it does its job well. There is basically zero bloat, unlike Linux which loads a fuckton of unnecessary "features" with every aspect of the operating system. They reinvent the wheel a million times, and there is about 100 programs that can all complete the same function, when the Unix way is to just have 1 program do that, and have the other programs use that program for completing said operation.

What you're lacking with FreeBSD is a lot of application support. Linux has all sorts of fancy programs, some of which are good, but they can't be easily ported to FreeBSD. If you use your computer for browsing 4chan, programming, office, and/or GPGPU operations (video rendering, 3d modeling, ect)

I have heard of some people getting steam to run on it, in which case the performance was increase 10 times that of Linux, and 8.5 times Win.

The Amiga was 68k-based. That architecture is no more. The new "Amiga hardware" you are talking about uses a PowerPC CPU and outdated PC hardware which is being sold for Apple-tier (or even above) prices to nostalgiacucks.

>>57912625
Most people never used that. Things like the Indivision AGA or the Vampire 2 are more popular than MorphOS or Amiga OS 4.*

But really most just guy an IDE to Flash adapter to replace the HDD and leave it at that.

I've been binging on a lot of Amiga nostalgia lately : the bedrooms to billions documentary, Kim Justice and Nostalgia Nerd's retrospective videos, the "Future Was Here" book.

I'll never love a piece of technology like I loved the Amiga, and it just makes me depressed how the Amiga just drifted from one fuckup to another in the hands of greedy incompetents.

In my heart I know that Commodore would probably not have survived into the 21st Century no matter how well they did, but the Amiga deserved better. It changed from owner to owner who had no idea what to do with it. The OS was pulled in different directions by petty bickering when there should have been a united effort to promote and rejuvinate it. At the very least it should have been open sourced. It just makes me depressed that it's just going to become a footnote in history. I try to take some heart that there is still an Amiga scene, but it's mainly just nostalgia for the good old days, the new development being done just seems a waste of time, making stuff for a now obscure and mostly irrelevant ecosystem.

will amiga workbench 3.x even run on a x86_64 PC??

if not then STFU because i am not going to spend hundreds of bucks on old hardware to run some retro mid-1990's operating system

>>57919268
AROS will run natively, it's a mostly complete implementation of OS 3.1. obviously binaries have to be compiled for x86.
Alternatively you can run it in an emulator with JIT to make it ridiculously faster than any old Amiga hardware

>>57907549

>functionally identical to early Linux
FreeBSD (and any *BSD) development has been ongoing for longer than Linux.

FreeBSD has lots of superiority over most Linux distro's:
- Superior filesystem, ZFS
- Secure container / sandboxing, jails
- Better bootloader that has integrity/security checks, works with encrypted disks and boot environments. (beadm)
- Has a superior network stack (Both NASA and Netflix have extensive blogs about why they use FreeBSD for high load networking)


FreeBSD is 1 large project, it's not a couple guys creating a "distro", pulling together other peoples work.
A *BSD system is a more complete integrated system, this offers new possibilities and some great features.

Why are you unix faggots shitting up this thread. stay in your FGLT/BSD containment.

I wouldn't be depressed about it, if it had survived you would probably be thinking of it differently as just another plain old big-name platform with its own strengths and shortcomings like everything else, or maybe not, who knows.

Sucks that it turned out the way it did though, and that they made so many little mistakes that added up. It definitely could have had potential, but they targeted the wrong market and brought out the wrong features at the wrong time.

At least you can still enjoy it as it is while it's still plentiful and cheap, depending on where you live.

What is FreeBSD's philosophy on spying?

I hear they are really interested in helping companies and whatnot, so I'm not sure how willing they are to throw the bird to a company that wants to put spyware on my machine.

I'm not really looking for a "they're against it" either. I want to know that the developers personally would say "absolutely fucking not under any circumstances, you can go fuck yourself" right to some CEO's face for even suggesting it

4 or 16 color limited 640x480? Fuck that, even System 7 was out by then. Workbench was basic as fuck.

>Ah, so you didn't even use it at all, then? I rest my case.

Pretty much all System 7 gave you was some optional barely noticeable window colors and desktop patterns.

And let's not even get started on the absolute visual abomination that was Windows 3.1/NT 3.1. Neither of them looked nearly as "ricy" as AmigaOS by a longshot, and the screenshots presented ITT are definitely not 640x480x16.

> it was perfect for muh productivity back then
It was all there was, so of course people lived with it. But don't act like they missed it when it was gone.

>It was all there was, so of course people lived with it. But don't act like they missed it when it was gone.

I'd say you're just being retarded now, saying that nobody uses minimalistic UIs anymore or that people who don't rice exist

>What kind of transcendent cherrypicking is this?
is this better? still ruins your point
but you could have a wallpaper and high resolutions on mac IIs that came out in the turn of 1990

>>57927581
Macs were vastly more expensive than Amiga 2000s or 3000s in 1990. And monitors with higher res than 640x480 were outrageously expensive

>>57907549
Because that's fucking disgusting. Looks like windows 3.1 which was a giant turd

>>57927914
yeah, but hes point is still invalid

>>57927995
I'm not actually sure what anyone's point is at this stage. MacOS and AmigaOS were both perfectly fine looking in their day - neither were designed with high resolutions or more than a handful of colours in mind. Both of them could be enhanced with 3rd party hacks and extensions.
However the AmigaOS was far and away the best under the hood, and the hardware was a fraction of the price. No contest there.

>>57928439
Agree, it was awesome for it's time.

>>57910521
Very nice.

Pretty shit the reality is we have the worst of all worlds
>Windows
Malware ridden shit with an atrocious panjeet UI
>Mac
Management no longer gives a shit about actual computers so the hardware it runs on is overpriced trash performance wise and more locked down every release

Xfucking11 and everything still just feels like a front end to a terminal not a coherent OS

Workbench, RISCOS and BeOS are so nice next to all this crap.

>>57929151
amen

>>57929151
>feels like a front end to a terminal not a coherent OS
I have no problems with that.

>>57929151
RISC OS is still pretty cool. When you use it and see how fast it is on even the Pi 1 then it really puts a lot of other developers to shame.

Granted it's because a lot of it was written in assembly for 25 year old hardware, but it just shows how important true scalability is.

If they could port AbiWord and GNUmeric I'd probably set it up as a work machine.

Fine, it doesn't look pretty, but I don't care. It's a computer not a fashion accessory.

>>57929205
Yeah couldn't believe how fast it was on the Pi 1 compared to Raspbian (near unusable in GUI mode)

I'm an oldfag so had to use it in school actually, I think it looks pretty great.

>>57929205
RISC OS was pretty impressive back in the day, but rather cryptic and not the most friendly to use. We had an Acorn Archimedes at school and none of us could fathom how to use it properly. You had to use all 3 mouse buttons for various things and the GUI had weird seemingly arbitrary conventions like dragging icons around to load and save stuff.
Technically impressive though, I think it was the first OS I saw with antialiased fonts and windows that could be resized and dragged around smoothly without hiding their contents

>>57929205
Find out if Emacs works.
It has Speadsheets in org-mode,
and LaTeX-Support.
You could work with that.

>>57929289
>the GUI had weird seemingly arbitrary conventions like dragging icons around to load and save stuff.

That would probably, weirdly enough, work quite well on a touch interface.

Even the 1200 could handle 256 at that resolution, but you're probably still right because apparently they're such pieces of shit they're unusable in those modes.

>I'd say you're just being retarded now, saying that nobody uses minimalistic UIs anymore or that people who don't rice exist
The fact that hipsters exist in 2016 has nothing to do with whether or not the Workbench UI looks like ass.

>>57927581
>is this better? still ruins your point
How does it again? Because there's a little more color? The interface isn't dominated by huge icons, massive scrollbars, ugly window decorations and that shitty font. I don't think my point is ruined at all.

>but you could have a wallpaper and high resolutions on mac IIs that came out in the turn of 1990
Couldn't have a wallpaper without third-party utilities, but otherwise, of course. They were six-figure systems with near-workstation-class hardware marketed at users who usually needed high resolutions, though the majority of them shipped with 640x480 displays, and they could utilize them a lot better than that shitty garbage.

And shit, if you're going to roll the clock back to 1990, System 6 kills half of your straw grasping counterpoints.

>leaving the linuxsphere removes a lot of access to software that no one has the time to completely port and recompile
All this
>implying
Face it! The Gnoopix-sphere forks software that someone else already does better. Open Orifice instead of Windows Office, PIMP instead of Photoshop and so on...

Because creating software that would be useful, yet still has no commercial market is beyond their GBP-based economy...
