TempleOS (formerly SparrowOS or LoseThos in development) is a biblical themed lightweight operating system created over the span of a decade by programmer Terry A. Davis. The software is a x86-64 bit, multi-tasking, multi-cored, public domain, open source, ring-0-only, single address space, non-networked, PC operating system for recreational programming.[1] The operating system was designed to "talk with God" according to Davis and uses an interface similar to a mixture of DOS and Turbo C. Davis describes the operating system as a modern x86_64 Commodore 64 with C in place of BASIC.[2]
Davis was born December 1969 and has been diagnosed with schizophrenia since the mid-1990s.[weasel words] Development for TempleOS began in 2003 after Davis suffered from a series of manic episodes that left him briefly hospitalized for mental health issues.[2][3]
Davis is a former atheist who believes that he can "talk with God" and that God told him the operating system he built was God's official temple. According to Davis TempleOS is of 'Divine' intellect due to the inspired nature of the code. According to Davis, God said to create the operating system with 640x480, 16 colors display and a single audio voice. The operating system was coded in a programming language, developed by Davis in C/C++ called "HolyC". The OS runs a file system called "Red Sea".[4]
TempleOS deliberately has no network support. It runs 8-bit ASCII with graphics in source code and has a 2D and 3D graphics library, which run at 640x480 VGA with 16 colors.[4]
The OS contains numerous embedded biblical references including a program called AfterEgypt which allows users to "communicate with God" through an oracle.[5]
someone call him up for a livestream, these threads are worthless unless there is a livestream

Does the OS run any daemons? ;)
Thank you terry !
Also, download his OS every time you get a new IP. Downloads make this guy go crazy, it's like the force that keeps him going.

Where is the link to the 10 hr stream he did last time?
Why do you bully this guy? He's mentlaly ill and seems like he was a nice person before he went Schizo.

His work doesn't seem to be influenced by his condition. Some say it's a chicken and egg problem though. He's quite resilient to trolling too.

What's the chicken and egg here?

DOesn't look like it from his twitter. he seems like the guy who takes /pol/ seriously.
He sure is talented, but let's be honest here: he made an useless OS. Low resolution aside, you can't even fucking connect it to internet.
Why would one use it? I don't see any pragmatical functions.
IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN!!!!
MR MOD,
TEAR DOWN THAT STICKY!!!

You're not wrong to think that a lot of the attention Terry gets is from people whose sole intention is to make fun of him.
However, I personally have been inspired by him and anyone who's actually interested in how to make an operating system could learn a LOT from TempleOS and his videos. The man is a genius.

That's GNU/nigger to you

nigger
someone start a patreon for him
MR MOD TERRY THAT STICKY DOWN
