Using BeOS was a fantastic experience in 1999, and it's sad that it hasn't caught on. I'm rooting for all OSes that bring different perspectives to the OS world instead of being another textbook Unix variant. My only qualm is how HaikuOS, and AmigaOS for that matter, fail to carry over their aesthetics to a high-resolution/HiDPI world. I see gradients, overly-empahsized embosses in the UI screenshots. They lack the s…

How usable is Haiku OS in practice?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
If you scroll down, the poster got it running on real hardware.
Can we use that as daily driver? A clever developer making things work on his or her own hardware, is not quite on the same level as daily driver. (Granted, Linux would also have to run on M1 Macs. But I mean this more on the issue of same-hardware or comparable hardware level.)

I’m not sure anybody can use Haiku as a daily driver, regardless of platform.
But it isn't ready for any kind of real mainstream daily driver use, no.
Yet I still can not use ruby on it ... Sorry guys - Haiku is a great idea, but it needs to become a real operating system semi-advanced users can use daily. And it hasn't been at that since years. Linux works.
No it doesn't.

Are you useful?
That's the scary part about AI and the transformation it'll have on society. The answer to that question for all of us, soon enough, will be no, not useful enough vs an AI. Then what happens?
Sad that we'll probably never be able to run this on M1/M-series iPads.
But it all hinged on someone coming up with an exploit and releasing it free to the community ignoring any bug bounty. True altruists. And apple is good enough at whack a mole and paying people $100k that this sort of effort died out. Most low hanging fruit all picked and patched already. It is no wonder that ios innovation has also stalled out now that there isn't someone to copy good ideas from any longer.
