Hi Terry,

I'm afraid your abrasive manner of posting will result in a shadowban again soon. Hopefully we can have some good discussion of TempleOS before that happens. :)

I am very impressed by your technical achievements.

One thing regarding your "demands" page, a lot of them have to do with Intel and others optimising less-efficient means of access (such as IN/OUT for PIO instead of DMA). Do you have plans to implement DMA support? Would that not be a better goal than to get hardware vendors to optimise for less-efficient access methods?

Once again, impressive work on your programming language and OS.

White kids like to program. Making a goat simulator mod or crazy shit in MineCraft is very sad.

Carmack wants to make a mini-me. Ask him what he wants his kid doing, playing Doom or making Donkey Kong?

God said 640x480 16 color. We are obviously not interested in performance. We want to make a damn good toy.
