Huh, so that’s why Hurd doesn’t work? They just expected it to run on some alien tech?
Mankind hasn’t advanced enough to build it yet (although some pockets of mankind already are this advanced and are running debian-GNU/Hurd, they also are responsible for all the ufo reports and the abductions and probing)
The first response to the latest release is Everything’s broken (was: Debian GNU/Hurd 2023 released!) and they pretty much beg you to only run it in a VM. So we can safely assume it’s going to be stable until the end of the year. #2024YearOfHurdOnDesktop
“Everything’s broken” / “only run it in a VM”. Where have I heard that before? Oh yes. ReactOS.
Totally different OS project with some remarkable similarities, apparently.
ReactOS has a head start. Who will win?
Popcorn, anyone?
(But seriously, I’d very much like both to do well.)

Sometimes you got to take a leap of faith 🫣🐂🐃🦬 🤣
postscript : the guy who said everything was broken, seemed to just have had a broken filesystem, ironically the advantages of a microkernel like hurd led to him even being able to boot without a kernel panic() 🤯 🤔
Could someone explain hurd to me? Who develops it, what makes it different? Is it a microkernel or unikernel?
