Astralixi OS Megathread

The big question I’d have is, assuming what you say is for real, what would motivate people to use your OS, and not any of the other options, such as PicoMite, MicroPython, uLisp, the Phyllosoma BASIC compiler, the C++ library that @BlairLeduc is working on, the Rust library that @astennumero is working on, or my own zeptoforth? All of these other options are FLOSS, so if their developers get hit by a bus or simply get bored people could always continue their work. If you don’t also release your OS as FLOSS, they would be counting on you to continue development all by yourself. And even though some of these are incomplete at this point, the repositories are still publicly available, so anyone can see what is already there right now, whereas in your case all we can do is take you by your word.

Also, you come off as very secretive and suspicious of others’ intentions by keeping your code closed for fear of other people “stealing” your code and not even publicizing API’s and providing initial development releases for people to work with ─ how would that make people want to use your OS and not one of these other alternatives? If given the choice to develop for a FLOSS OS (e.g. Linux) or a proprietary one (e.g. Windows) without any sufficient outside motivating factor (e.g. someone is paying me to develop for a particular OS), and if I was not already invested in some particular OS (e.g. let’s just say I switched from a Mac to a PC and I could install whatever I wished on it), I would choose a FLOSS OS to develop for any day, and I bet the same would be true of many other programmers. And without API’s and development releases how can others whom you have begged to develop for your OS even write anything for it in the first place?

API will come out when Version BETA or ALPHA releases. I don’t plan on making the OS FLOSS, but I plan on getting like 4 people and give them contribution perms to help make the OS (but this is a maybe)

Then this project is personal. It is not public.

but public can use it, and eventually make apps for it.

I’m convinced that this account is either a bot or AI led

? What do you mean, well yes the above message was written by AI, as whenever I search up stuff for the Pico 2w it won’t stop coming up with results for just Australia…

Buddy, please stop using AI for tasks like this one. You’ll be able to grow your community so much faster without the use of AI the way you’re using it.

Ok. so what you are saying, is that I should stop using AI as a whole, so that people know that what I am saying here is original?

Anyone understand what the errors here are saying?

It’s your best bet if you want followers here.

is this the thread for VaporwareOS?

it’s not a useful list, a Dutch store for the US? a Swedish one for Germany, sure they might have stock right now, but next week it will be different. And you can definitely search for stores in other countries, adding a country to the search terms works pretty well

yes, this is the same one you called vaporwareOS on reddit

the errors are saying your code, that we can’t see, is full of errors

I seriously don’t understand why you’re being so obstinate about not sharing the code, but going the extra mile of uploading a random text file with the errors you’re getting.
Just make the repository public or at least share the failing code. How are you expecting to get help when nobody can see where you are failing to begin with?

You may get banned for spamming if you let AI write your posts. This site is for human beings above 13 years of age (see the privacy policy). If there are strong doubts that you fall into this category then you will probably not be able continue using this forum.

I let AI write ONE POST, ONE COMMENT, and I admitted it later, and I won’t use AI anymore anyways.

Posting that error list and your previous technical questions demonstrates to me that you have no clue as what you are doing.

Have you written software of any significance before this project?

The problem is that you are trying to assemble arm code with an x86 assembler.

BTW, you cannot use AI to generate arm assembly. It is useless at it. For one thing, It cannot manage register usage. You may be able to assemble what it generates, but it won’t work.

It fell off starting at the “mingw32” part.

@Astrox if you really want to technically achieve your goal, you’re missing a lot of things. Get familiar with development tools and basic computer science.

These error messages are coming from a compiler geared towards x86/win32, wrong architecture and wrong environment.
With these tools your code will never compile.

You need to gather a cross compile tool chain for pico.
