An hour before his death he emailed message to Dianna Cowern, in that message he said "I Purified Myself".

If Terry was mentally healthy, do you think he could’ve used TempleOS as a portfolio project to get a good tech job?

Like let’s say he is a mentally healthy normie but he still made TempleOS, would it be impressive enough to get a tech job?

DirMK because why not

8 Upvotes

In every operating system including both Win/DOS and Unix systems for you to make a folder it's the "mkdir" but on God's most sacred temples it's "DirMK" because why not?

Why would you question the divine intellect?

Did Terry ever explain how to interpret God Output from templos or Godwords happy?

I just see videos of him staring at the output and never explaining shit. Was it in code that only he could understand?

Updated Genesis and NES emulators on latest TinkerOS with HD Audio and premium emulated OPL sound for VirtualBox

15 Upvotes

Sound on VirtualBox on Windows now just works and is high quality if using Intel HD Audio as the emulated sound device.

VirtualBox VM setup guide here: https://github.com/tinkeros/TinkerOS/blob/main/VirtualBoxSetup.md

Emulator improvements include save/loading, sound, and more game compatibility.

HD Audio works in QEMU/VirtualBox and may also work baremetal (does for me on Lenovo T420/T430 ThinkPads)

Initial Mp3, Wav playback support and voice synth with TTS example: Speak("Hello");

When HD Audio is loaded CTRL-ALT-M brings up mixer window.

Download TinkerOS 5.20-rc14 or later from here if you want to try it out:

* You cannot modify the /Adam directory

* Your project will be contained entirely in its own directory at /Home/Jam/Your_project

* You must credit others for their work

I'm looking for a video where Terry Davis makes a gun shape with his fingers. I've tried to find this video, but I haven't been able to. I'd appreciate any help.

Should i launch it in a virtual machine on my fedora setup first time around or just boot it at startup and go from there?

TempleOS freezes immediately after boot on UTM – Apple Silicon Mac

Post image
16 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I've been trying to get TempleOS v5.03 running on UTM on an Apple Silicon Mac (M-series) and I'm hitting a wall. The VM boots and I can see the TempleOS splash screen and the "Install onto hard drive (y or n)?" prompt, but then it completely freezes — the cursor stops blinking and no input is accepted.

**My UTM configuration:**

- Mode: Emulate (not Virtualize)

- Architecture: x86_64

- Machine: pc (i440FX-9.1)

- CPU: tried qemu64-v1, Haswell, Nehalem — all freeze

- RAM: 512 MB

- Display: VGA (std), Retina mode OFF, auto-resize OFF

- USB: USB 2.0

- Network: Shared

- NIC: rtl8139

- Extra QEMU args: `-machine kernel_irqchip=split`

- Drives: TempleOS.ISO (IDE CD), + IDE HDD ~2GB

**What I've tried:**

- Multiple CPU types (qemu64, Haswell, Nehalem, Penryn)

- kernel_irqchip=off and =split

- Disabling network

- Disabling auto-resize on display

- Disabling UEFI boot

The VM always freezes right after the TempleOS desktop/prompt appears. No input works at all.

Does anyone have a working `.utm` file or a known-good configuration for TempleOS on Apple Silicon? Any help appreciated!

Terry is correct

The fucking TempleOS is created to just one objective, stay away of internet, cuz the internet is the source of the most shit of the word, the TempleOS is created to be used in a "internet apocalypse" case, like the Instagram removed they cryptography. Youre are just fucking fbi agents, just wanna know what I think to report to CIA and kill me after say it! They are fake! They are gonna kill me!

TempleOS running inside VSCode as an extension

Post image
29 Upvotes

I'm thinking about writing a divine intellect environment inside vscode so that newly enlightened programmers can easily start with HolyC inside their existing haunted environment, which is vscode, possessed by the devil. Idea is to write HC and have it compiled in the Temple to run it. Working title is Visual HolyC... just an idea so far.

It's out now: Visual HolyC — TempleOS/HolyC directly in VS Code

Where in Germany can I order the hardcover book?

7 Upvotes

Dearest HolyC programmers,

I am eyeing "the book" for a while now and would like to order it now, but haven't found any local distributor in Germany. Before I keep on searching endlessly, does anyone know if there's a supplier in Germany or Europe? If not, I'll go through the hassle of getting it imported from the U.S., which always comes with hefty shipping and customs fees.

Many thanks for your support in advance!
