[[File:Goombafallacy.jpeg|thumb|An internet meme depicting the Goomba Fallacy]]
The '''Goomba Fallacy''' is a type of hasty generalization where someone thinks of a group of people as holding two contradicting opinions, being "stupid walking contradictions."

== Example ==
Someone who is browsing Twitter may come across some users who say that pineapple on pizza is good, but also see some other users stating that pineapple never goes well with cheese. This observer might make a hasty generalization that "Twitter users like pineapple on pizza, but hate pineapple with cheese. That's stupid, Twitter users are stupid..."

This observer has treated these people as a monolith instead of individuals with their own opinions.

Furry Ferry (Formerly known as Barack Barracks) is a ClassiCube server owned and operated by [[Joshua]]. It is similar to [[MCGalaxy With Cheese]] in a few ways, notably the default rank being AdvBuilder. Its main was a freebuild map, but is now a map with floating islands and a bot that tells players how to create their own [[OverSeer]] map. Furry Ferry doesn't get as much traffic as Cheese does, but it still gets players from time to time.

The server went down for a while after being taken off of the ClassiCube server list. But recently, it was brought back online as a public server.

It has been converted from a freebuild and realms server to a realms server only, and the freebuild maps on the server have been archived.

Tesseract

2024-02-02T01:43:19Z

Martlet:

The Tesseract (also known as the Tesseract Personal Computer), is a series of home computer systems manufactured and sold by [[Harrowing Software]]. The Tesseract computer is contained within a keyboard, similarly to older 8-bit computers. (It also comes with a mouse.) Tesseract computers are designed to be easy to set up and use. The Tesseract can be used for many of the fundamental PC tasks, including browsing the internet, playing online and offline games, running office software, and online instant messaging and electronic mail. The first model was announced in 1993 and released in 1994, in order to compete with the IBM PC compatible computers and Windows 3.1; and to provide a computer that could rival the capabilities of other new machines, while retaining the form factor and ease of use of older 8-bit home computers.

== Software ==

The Tesseract runs Tesseract OS, a desktop operating system designed similarly to Windows 95. It comes with an internet browser, basic office suite, multimedia software, games, internet communications software (e-mail, IM), and more desktop utilities (calculator, text editor, clock, file manager, etc). Tesseract OS is designed to be easy to use. It does not contain a command line interface, as the entire OS is accessible and usable from the graphical interface. Tesseract OS is intended to run only on Tesseract hardware. Tesseract OS uses TesseractFS, a filesystem created specifically for it.

The desktop has a taskbar and desktop icons including a shortcut to the user's home directory, where all of their personal files go, and a shortcut to the My Computer view, which shows connected internal drives, CD-ROMs, and floppy disks and a shortcut to the system settings manager. The desktop also has shortcuts to connected external drives.

The Tesseract comes with Internet WebView, Harrowing Software's own internet browser, which is the default in Tesseract OS. Internet WebView also includes an e-mail client and a web-page composition tool and publishing tool.

The Tesseract also comes with a spreadsheet editor, word processor, presentation maker, and desktop publisher that all save in standard file formats.

The Tesseract computer uses a minimal boot firmware that tries to load a (usually hidden) file called "boot.elf" from a storage device formatted in TesseractFS. It tries to boot from each connected storage device in a specific order until one of them has a working copy of the file. The order is as follows: Internal Hard Drive, CD-ROM Drive, Floppy Drive, External Hard Drive. If the device it is currently trying is missing boot.elf, or boot.elf is corrupt, it moves on to the next device. The system can be forced to boot from the CD-ROM by holding "C", the floppy drive by holding "F", an external drive by holding "E", or the internal drive by holding "D". The default boot order can be changed by moving jumpers on the motherboard. By default, the system will only load a boot.elf that has been signed by Harrowing Software, which prevents custom operating systems from being loaded. The restrictions can be disabled by moving a jumper on the motherboard, allowing a custom OS to be installed.

Tesseract OS also comes with a [[BASIC]] interpreter for writing simple programs.

Additional software can be bought for the Tesseract in retail stores, in the form of boxed software on CD-ROM or floppy disk. Software designed for the Tesseract will have the computer's logo on the box, similarly to console video games.

== What's in the box ==

All Tesseract computer models are contained within a keyboard. The system comes with a standard three-button mouse with scroll-wheel. The computer also comes with a game controller for computer games, the controller has a D-pad, start and select buttons, four face buttons, and two shoulder buttons. No monitor is included, as the Tesseract can connect to any standard VGA monitor. Tesseract models released after 2000 come with a cheaply-made pair of headphones. All Tesseract computers have speakers built-in, which switch off if external speakers or headphones are connected.

[[File:OSBlue.png|thumb|right|alt=A screenshot of OSBlue Version 2.00, taken by Joshua.|A screenshot of OSBlue Version 2.00, taken by [[Joshua]].]]

OSBlue (sometimes called OSBlue System V) is a [[Unix]]-based operating system developed by [[OS/Corp]]. OSBlue is the main operating system used on OS/Corp's products. While OSBlue is mainly designed to run on OS/Corp's own products, any PC or server that fits the minimum requirements should be able to run it well.

OSBlue is one of the few Unix systems built for both home and enterprise use. It is popular in the server market.

== Features & Differences from standard Unix ==

OSBlue is compatible with Unix software, but it is different from stock Unix in a few ways. OSBlue does not use [[Common Desktop Environment]] as the default GUI, as other well-known Unix systems have done; instead, it uses the proprietary OSBlue Desktop System, developed specifically for OSBlue. The desktop is not based on [[X Window System]], but is compatible with X applications.

OSBlue also has its own way of managing applications as well; it is comparable to the way [[Mac OS]] applications are handled. Applications may be bundled into a single file so that they can be installed or removed more easily; this works similarly to [[AppImage]].

OSBlue contains OS/Corp's own Internet Expressway browser, which is only available for OSBlue and [[OSi]].

OSi (formerly known as "DreamOS") is a proprietary, embedded, single-user, real-time operating system developed by [[OS/Corp]]. The name, "OSi", stands for "OS inside". OSi is mostly used in industrial applications, SoCs, POS terminals, thin clients, and compact devices.

Unlike [[OSBlue]], OSi is not a UNIX system or a UNIX-like. OSi shares some features with UNIX, but it is an independent system. It is similar in some ways to Windows CE.

OS/Corp licenses OSi to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who can modify the operating system and add their own user interface, or use a standard GUI provided by OS/Corp.

OSi can be compiled for most CPU architectures.

== Features ==

OSi is optimized for underpowered devices, it requires only one megabyte of memory and very little processing power. It is also able to run on a large variety of devices, ranging from embedded computer chips in consumer electronics, to industrial machinery and supercomputing clusters.

OSi is easy to develop for. Developer packages include a full SDK that can be used to develop and test software before deployment on an OSi device.

OSi can be bundled with (or without) a fully-fledged desktop environment or mobile GUI, allowing it to be used for things like low-cost home computers or mobile devices.

OSi includes a command-line shell, which can be accessed via a serial console or terminal program, it can be used for debugging, file management, configuration, system control, or launching applications.

== History ==

In 1999, OS/Corp began working on a real-time desktop operating system called DreamOS, designed for brain-computer interface devices which could run independently of a PC. The operating system's default graphical user interface bared striking resemblance to another operating system that was also used in brain-computer interfaces, unfortunately, this did not bode well for OS/Corp. In the year 2000, OS/Corp was sued and was asked to scrap DreamOS's current GUI and change its name. DreamOS's name was changed to OSi, the default GUI was removed and rewritten, and development continued.

[[File:OSBoot.png|thumb|right|alt=A screenshot of OSBoot 2.00 on a diskless PC. Taken by Joshua.|A screenshot of OSBoot 2.00 on a diskless PC. Taken by [[Joshua]].]]

OSBoot is a BIOS (and later UEFI) implementation by [[OS/Corp]]. OSBoot is primarily used in OS/Corp computers as the standard boot firmware, it can be licensed to other manufacturers but not a lot of them use it.

The BIOS is stored in Mask ROM on the computer's motherboard, so the contents of the BIOS chip cannot be changed once it is shipped from the factory. However, updates can be installed, as they are written to a flash chip on the motherboard separately from the base BIOS; this is to prevent a bad BIOS flash from bricking the computer. In the case of a broken BIOS update, the update flash can be erased before the BIOS reads it by holding CTRL+ALT+C+F when the computer is turned on.

Optionally, OSBoot can load operating system images or BIOS updates over a network connection.

== History ==

OSBoot 1.00 was released in the early 90s, when OS/Corp sought greater control over the boot process of their computing devices.

In the late 90s, OSBoot 2.00 was released, the main changes from 1.00 were UI changes and stability/security improvements. The boot process and memory check was faster in 2.00, as well. Y2K compliance was also guaranteed in the OSBoot 2.00 release.

In 2003, OS/Corp released OSBoot 3.00. This new version of OSBoot featured a full-screen logo on startup instead of the diagnostic information, this is known as "quiet boot" in the BIOS and can be disabled in favor of the diagnostic screen. OSBoot shows the diagnostic screen by default if the computer it is running on is a server.

In 2006, OSBoot 3.50 was released. OSBoot 3.50 improved the boot time and security of the BIOS.

In 2010, OSBoot 4.00 was released, this release shifted OSBoot from a BIOS implementation to a fully-featured UEFI implementation.

OSBlue (sometimes called OSBlue System V) is a [[Unix]]-based operating system developed by [[OS/Corp]]. OSBlue is the main operating system used on OS/Corp's products. While OSBlue is mainly designed to run on OS/Corp's own products, any PC or server that fits the minimum requirements should be able to run it well.

OSBlue is one of the few Unix systems built for both home and enterprise use. It is popular in the server market.

== Differences from standard Unix ==

OSBlue is compatible with Unix software, but it is different from stock Unix in a few ways. OSBlue does not use [[Common Desktop Environment]] as the default GUI, as other well-known Unix systems have done; instead, it uses the proprietary OSBlue Desktop System, developed specifically for OSBlue. The desktop is not based on [[X Window System]], but is compatible with X applications.

OSBlue also has its own way of managing applications as well; it is comparable to the way [[Mac OS]] applications are handled. Applications may be bundled into a single file so that they can be installed or removed more easily; this works similarly to [[AppImage]].

[[File:OSBoot.png|thumb|right|alt=A screenshot of OSBoot 2.00 on a diskless PC. Taken by Joshua.|A screenshot of OSBoot 2.00 on a diskless PC. Taken by [[Joshua]].]]

OSBoot is a BIOS (and later UEFI) implementation by [[OSCorp]]. It isn't very different from a standard PC BIOS (or UEFI).

OSBoot is primarily used in OSCorp computers, it can be licensed to other manufacturers but not a lot of them use it.

The BIOS is stored in Mask ROM on the computer's motherboard, so the contents of the BIOS chip cannot be changed once it is shipped from the factory. However, updates can be installed, as they are written to a flash chip on the motherboard separately from the base BIOS; this is to prevent a bad BIOS flash from bricking the computer. In the case of a broken BIOS update, the update flash can be erased before the BIOS reads it by holding CTRL+ALT+C+F when the computer is turned on.

Optionally, OSBoot can load operating system images or BIOS updates over a network connection.

== History ==

OSBoot 1.00 was released in the early 90s, when OSCorp sought greater control over the boot process of their computing devices.

In the late 90s, OSBoot 2.00 was released, the main changes from 1.00 were UI changes and stability/security improvements. The boot process and memory check was faster in 2.00, as well. Y2K compliance was also guaranteed in the OSBoot 2.00 release.

In 2003, OSCorp released OSBoot 3.00. This new version of OSBoot featured a full-screen logo on startup instead of the diagnostic information, this is known as "quiet boot" in the BIOS and can be disabled in favor of the diagnostic screen. OSBoot shows the diagnostic screen by default if the computer it is running on is a server.

In 2006, OSBoot 3.50 was released. OSBoot 3.50 improved the boot time and security of the BIOS.

In 2010, OSBoot 4.00 was released, this release shifted OSBoot from a BIOS implementation to a fully-featured UEFI implementation. The setup screen became a full GUI and included a file manager, telnet and ssh clients, and a text editor, among other things. OSBoot 4.00 has been compared to an "operating system on a chip". It included tools which could be used to download and install an operating system from a network server or the internet, without having to use USB or CD/DVD install media. Some versions of OSBoot 4.00 also included a basic web browser.

Some motherboards which included OSBoot 4.00 or later included a hypervisor in the firmware, allowing multiple operating systems to run concurrently.

In 2013, OSBoot 5 was released. Version 5 added the ability to create and manage virtual hard drive images on connected storage devices. These images could have an operating system installed to them, and they could be booted from. This makes it easier to install multiple operating systems to one computer, and it bypasses the usual limits of disk partitioning. The images can also be transferred between drives easily.

In 2014, OSBoot 5.1 was released with NTFS support.

The Tesseract (also known as the Tesseract Personal Computer), is a series of home computer systems manufactured and sold by [[Harrowing Software]]. The Tesseract computer is contained within a keyboard, similarly to older 8-bit computers. (It also comes with a mouse.) Tesseract computers are designed to be easy to set up and use. The Tesseract can be used for many of the fundamental PC tasks, including browsing the internet, playing online and offline games, running office software, and online instant messaging and electronic mail. The first model was announced in 1993 and released in 1994, in order to compete with the IBM PC compatible computers and Windows 3.1; and to provide a computer that could rival the capabilities of other new machines, while retaining the form factor and ease of use of older 8-bit home computers.

== Software ==

The Tesseract runs Tesseract OS, a desktop operating system designed similarly to Windows 3.1. It comes with an internet browser, basic office suite, multimedia software, games, internet communications software (e-mail, IM), and more desktop utilities (calculator, text editor, clock, file manager, etc). Tesseract OS is designed to be easy to use. It does not contain a command line interface, as the entire OS is accessible and usable from the graphical interface.

The desktop has icons, which are shortcuts to categories of applications (internet, games, utilities, etc) and shortcuts to the user's personal data folders. The desktop also has shortcuts to connected drives, like the Tesseract's hard drive(s) or CD-ROMs, or floppy disks.

Note: This page was partially rewritten in order to change the lore surrounding TurronOS. This notice will be removed soon.

TurronOS is an operating system developed by [[Turron Technologies]] for x86, x86_64, PowerPC, and ARM platforms. It is known for its inclusion on the [[TurronTech PC]]. It bears similarity to [[Linux]] or [[Unix]] (despite being neither), and takes UI design inspiration from [[BeOS]], [[Windows]], and [[OS/2]].

There are desktop, server, and mobile versions of TurronOS.

Out of the box, it includes (but is not limited to) a terminal emulator, a file manager, an image editor and text editor, a web browser, a media player, a desktop hypervisor, and a full office suite. It contains compatibility tools to run programs written for [[Linux]], DOS and Windows.

TurronOS is popular in the home and office computing markets.

== Development ==

TurronOS' versioning scheme uses release years for version numbers. It is comparable to [[Windows Server]] versioning or [[Ubuntu]] versioning.

TurronOS was first introduced in 1995 as a competitor to [[Windows 95]] and the emerging [[OSBlue]] platform. When designing TurronOS, TurronTech wanted to "combine the ease of Windows with the power and efficiency of a Unix-like operating system."

== Y2K and TurronOS 2000 ==

Although TurronOS has been "Y2K-compliant" since the beginning of its development; in 1999, a considerable amount of TurronOS users questioned whether their computers would continue to function come the new millenium.
The version pictured on this page is TurronOS 2000, released in 2000 both to introduce a new user-interface style and to ease concern about TurronOS' ability to function post-Y2K. TurronOS 2000 and late versions of TurronOS 1999 were marketed as "fully Y2K-ready."

OSi (formerly known as "DreamOS") is a proprietary embedded, single-user, real-time operating system developed by [[OSCorp]]. The name, "OSi", stands for "OS inside". OSi is mostly used in industrial applications, SoCs, POS terminals, thin clients, and compact devices.

Unlike [[OSBlue]], OSi is not a UNIX system or a UNIX-like. OSi shares some features with UNIX, but it is an independent system. It is similar in some ways to Windows CE.

OSCorp licenses OSi to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who can modify the operating system and add their own user interface, or use a standard GUI provided by OSCorp.

OSi can be compiled for most CPU architectures.

== Features ==

OSi is optimized for underpowered devices, it requires only one megabyte of memory and very little processing power. It is also able to run on a large variety of devices, ranging from embedded computer chips in consumer electronics, to industrial machinery and supercomputing clusters.

OSi is easy to develop for. Developer packages include a full SDK that can be used to develop and test software before deployment on an OSi device.

OSi can be bundled with (or without) a fully-fledged desktop environment or mobile GUI, allowing it to be used for things like low-cost home computers or mobile devices.

OSi includes a command-line shell, which can be accessed via a serial console or terminal program, it can be used for debugging, file management, configuration, system control, or launching applications.

== History ==

In 1999, OSCorp began working on a real-time desktop operating system called DreamOS, designed for brain-computer interface devices which could run independently of a PC. The operating system's default graphical user interface bared striking resemblance to another operating system that was also used in brain-computer interfaces, unfortunately, this did not bode well for OSCorp. In the year 2000, OSCorp was sued and was asked to scrap DreamOS's current GUI and change its name. DreamOS's name was changed to OSi, the default GUI was removed and rewritten, and development continued.

While OSBlue is mainly designed to run on OSCorp's own products, any PC or server that fits the minimum requirements should be able to run it well.

OSBlue is one of the few Unix systems built for both home and enterprise use. It is popular in the server market.

== Differences from standard Unix ==

OSBlue is compatible with Unix software, but it is different from stock Unix in a few ways. OSBlue does not use [[Common Desktop Environment]] as the default GUI, as other well-known Unix systems have done; instead, it uses the proprietary OSBlue Desktop System, developed specifically for OSBlue. The desktop is not based on [[X11]], but is compatible with X applications.

OSBlue also has its own way of managing applications as well; it is comparable to the way [[Mac OS]] applications are handled. Applications may be bundled into a single file so that they can be installed or removed more easily; this works similarly to [[AppImage]].

Note: This page was partially rewritten in order to change the lore surrounding TurronOS. This notice will be removed soon.

TurronOS is an operating system developed by [[Turron Technologies]] for x86, x86_64, PowerPC, and ARM platforms. It is known for its inclusion on the [[TurronTech PC]]. It bears similarity to [[Linux]] or [[Unix]] (despite being neither), and takes UI design inspiration from [[BeOS]], [[Windows]], and [[OS/2]].

There are desktop, server, and mobile versions of TurronOS.

Out of the box, it includes (but is not limited to) a terminal emulator, a file manager, an image editor and text editor, a web browser, a media player, a desktop hypervisor, and a full office suite. It contains compatibility tools to run programs written for [[Linux]], DOS and Windows.

== Development ==

TurronOS' versioning scheme uses release years for version numbers. It is comparable to [[Windows Server]] versioning or [[Ubuntu]] versioning.

TurronOS was first introduced in 1995 as a competitor to [[Windows 95]] and the emerging [[OSBlue]] platform. When designing TurronOS, TurronTech wanted to "combine the ease of Windows with the power and efficiency of a Unix-like operating system."

== Y2K and TurronOS 2000 ==

Although TurronOS has been "Y2K-compliant" since the beginning of its development; in 1999, a considerable amount of TurronOS users questioned whether their computers would continue to function come the new millenium.
The version pictured on this page is TurronOS 2000, released in 2000 both to introduce a new user-interface style and to ease concern about TurronOS' ability to function post-Y2K. TurronOS 2000 and late versions of TurronOS 1999 were marketed as "fully Y2K-ready."
