Well, yeah, the first time they made a really big push technology-wise --- making TRON-OS the default OS for their entire educational system --- the US FTC prevailed upon the State Department to inform them that such an endeavour would be viewed as anti-competitive.
I really wish that such things would instead be shared and celebrated and translated.
- woolion 6mo agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRON_project https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRON_project I did wonder, reading such a comment, whether it would be a hyperbole, but not only is it documented, it is way worse than that. The free market is only ever enforced in the direction that suits the US, and the vassal states get screwed.
- WillAdams 6mo agoYeah, the demo where they showed multiple videos being played in separate windows on an 80186 was _amazing_ --- I _really_ wish that using TRON-OS for desktop use on commodity hardware was well-documented --- in particular, it would be _awesome_ for an rPi.
- _doctor_love 6mo ago> The free market is only ever enforced in the direction that suits the US I mean, come on. If it was free in both directions, the US might lose sometimes!! Sigh. It's so sad. Stuff like this is why free-marketeers (and in particular libertarians) earn my ire. There is not a single economy in the world that is an actually free market. Capital can move fairly freely and labor not at all.
