Hello, /prog/. If you had the perfect operating system for writing games in, what features would it have, and what features would it lack? What qualities does the perfect operating system have, and what qualities make you want to stab the people who programmed the OS?

Adobe Flash DO NOT WANT
javascript can do anything flash can do, it's faster, and it doesn't require a plugin that crashes every 10 minutes.
god you guys are such fags. JS is a horrible language that was incredibly ill designed and simply can't get to be very fast due to brain dead dynamism that shouldn't be there.
A new desktop OS will need a browser, email, video players and flash if it is to get adoption.
But these are all available. You need to ask yourself what are you going to do different than windows. mac and linux and how are you going to sandbox or port webkit over, gnash over, mplayer over etc.

WOW, honestly impressive, although I'm not surprised, you can write an OS with every Touring Complete programming language.

I read the URL as JS sux, which would be rather ironic, given the reality of the situation.

Because JavaScript is for EXPERT PROGRAMMERS only.
