On VMs*

No, they got it booting on bare metal a few posts down.

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.)

One can reasonably infer that, since this is a discussion thread rather than a formal support announcement, that this is not yet a formally-supported configuration.

I’m not sure anybody can use Haiku as a daily driver, regardless of platform.

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.

What do you mean by that? It seems like there's Ruby in the packages:

> Linux works.

Which distro?

Linux is an OS kernel, not a full operating system.

I still need to know which distro to choose before I install it.

No need to do that with macOS or Windows, but Linux is always a problem.

Neat! Not sure why the comments on this post are immediately asking if it’s useful. Not everything has to be immediately useful to exist. Kill the capitalist in your head.

If it's not useful, then why create it?

We could say the same for most of the comments on this site, including yours and mine.

For fun.

Because they can.

This is unexpectedly one of the saddest comments I have ever read here.

Kevcmk•6m ago

Referencing which other comments here? This is seemingly a preemptive justification for whatever this is-- from a shill. What a stupid comment.

How usable is Haiku OS in practice?
