  1. Hello everybody. This is TechCut. In Hello everybody. This is TechCut. In this video, we're going to be doing this video, we're going to be doing this video, we're going to be doing something that was heavily requested. something that was heavily requested. something that was heavily requested. We're going to be taking my first look We're going to be taking my first look We're going to be taking my first look at Dalie OS. This right here is a very at Dalie OS. This right here is a very at Dalie OS. This right here is a very interesting interesting interesting Linux-based distribution that features a Linux-based distribution that features a Linux-based distribution that features a lot of the components of Google's lot of the components of Google's lot of the components of Google's Fuchsia operating system, which you may Fuchsia operating system, which you may Fuchsia operating system, which you may know as the current default operating know as the current default operating know as the current default operating system in these Google Hubs right here. system in these Google Hubs right here. system in these Google Hubs right here. And a lot of the native applications in And a lot of the native applications in And a lot of the native applications in the Dalie OS is written in Flutter. Now, the Dalie OS is written in Flutter. Now, the Dalie OS is written in Flutter. Now, kind of cruising around on the website, kind of cruising around on the website, kind of cruising around on the website, you could see some of the information. you could see some of the information. you could see some of the information. It has just the basics. Supposedly, It has just the basics. Supposedly, It has just the basics. Supposedly, there's a wide range of supported there's a wide range of supported there's a wide range of supported devices. And if you want to, right now, devices. And if you want to, right now, devices. And if you want to, right now, you can go ahead and actually try it you can go ahead and actually try it you can go ahead and actually try it out. They have a little out. They have a little out. They have a little web-friendly format, so you can web-friendly format, so you can web-friendly format, so you can check out some of the elements and check out some of the elements and check out some of the elements and whatnot for yourself. But, we're going whatnot for yourself. But, we're going whatnot for yourself. But, we're going to be diving into this in a virtual to be diving into this in a virtual to be diving into this in a virtual machine in just a minute, right after we machine in just a minute, right after we machine in just a minute, right after we thank the sponsor of today's video, thank the sponsor of today's video, thank the sponsor of today's video, Linode. Linode is an absolutely Linode. Linode is an absolutely Linode. Linode is an absolutely wonderful platform to host your Linux wonderful platform to host your Linux wonderful platform to host your Linux web services. I'm currently using Linode web services. I'm currently using Linode web services. I'm currently using Linode to host techcut.tv, to host techcut.tv, to host techcut.tv, a Nextcloud instance, and any other web a Nextcloud instance, and any other web a Nextcloud instance, and any other web services that I need. With Linux servers services that I need. With Linux servers services that I need. With Linux servers starting as low as $5 a month and a starting as low as $5 a month and a starting as low as $5 a month and a whole slew of easy one-click web whole slew of easy one-click web whole slew of easy one-click web installers, Linode is a fantastic option installers, Linode is a fantastic option installers, Linode is a fantastic option to get all your services, projects, or to get all your services, projects, or to get all your services, projects, or whatever you need up and running today.

  2. whatever you need up and running today. whatever you need up and running today. And better yet, if you use the link down And better yet, if you use the link down And better yet, if you use the link down below, you can get a $100 60-day credit below, you can get a $100 60-day credit below, you can get a $100 60-day credit to go ahead and play around with Linode to go ahead and play around with Linode to go ahead and play around with Linode today. Now, the cool thing about this today. Now, the cool thing about this today. Now, the cool thing about this system is they do have a lot of system is they do have a lot of system is they do have a lot of different documentation to go ahead and different documentation to go ahead and different documentation to go ahead and learn exactly what is going on here. learn exactly what is going on here. learn exactly what is going on here. Over here, under OS Linux, we kind of Over here, under OS Linux, we kind of Over here, under OS Linux, we kind of see the system see the system see the system layout and exactly how it's running layout and exactly how it's running layout and exactly how it's running here. It says, "Although Linux and here. It says, "Although Linux and here. It says, "Although Linux and Zircon, which is the kernel for the Zircon, which is the kernel for the Zircon, which is the kernel for the Fuchsia operating system, cannot be more Fuchsia operating system, cannot be more Fuchsia operating system, cannot be more different, Dalie OS Linux blends different, Dalie OS Linux blends different, Dalie OS Linux blends security, efficiency, and virtualization security, efficiency, and virtualization security, efficiency, and virtualization compatibilities compatibilities compatibilities of the Zircon and lightweight of the Zircon and lightweight of the Zircon and lightweight Linux-based system." If we go ahead and Linux-based system." If we go ahead and Linux-based system." If we go ahead and open up here, we can kind of see what's open up here, we can kind of see what's open up here, we can kind of see what's going on. Everything's on top of the going on. Everything's on top of the going on. Everything's on top of the GRUB boot loader and the Linux kernel. GRUB boot loader and the Linux kernel. GRUB boot loader and the Linux kernel. And then above that, we have the base And then above that, we have the base And then above that, we have the base user space and the modular user space. user space and the modular user space. user space and the modular user space. The modular user space uses basically a The modular user space uses basically a The modular user space uses basically a virtualization client called Graft. And virtualization client called Graft. And virtualization client called Graft. And then from there, you can virtualize then from there, you can virtualize then from there, you can virtualize whatever you need, whether that be whatever you need, whether that be whatever you need, whether that be containers, other virtual machines, or containers, other virtual machines, or containers, other virtual machines, or the actual Fuchsia operating system the actual Fuchsia operating system the actual Fuchsia operating system here. And over here, we have the user here. And over here, we have the user here. And over here, we have the user agents. It's running on Flutter and agents. It's running on Flutter and agents. It's running on Flutter and Xorg. And then we have Pangolin, which Xorg. And then we have Pangolin, which Xorg. And then we have Pangolin, which is the user shell or the desktop is the user shell or the desktop is the user shell or the desktop environment. And then we have a base environment. And then we have a base environment. And then we have a base recovery operating system over here. And recovery operating system over here. And recovery operating system over here. And I'll go ahead and link to this page down I'll go ahead and link to this page down I'll go ahead and link to this page down below if you want to learn more about below if you want to learn more about below if you want to learn more about the Fuchsia emulator within this. If the Fuchsia emulator within this. If the Fuchsia emulator within this. If you're interested in checking this out you're interested in checking this out you're interested in checking this out specifically. And of course, being that specifically. And of course, being that specifically. And of course, being that this is Linux, it is modular, so you this is Linux, it is modular, so you this is Linux, it is modular, so you could go ahead and fire up a virtual could go ahead and fire up a virtual could go ahead and fire up a virtual machine of something else, such as Arch machine of something else, such as Arch machine of something else, such as Arch Linux here, and actually go ahead and Linux here, and actually go ahead and Linux here, and actually go ahead and install their desktop environment. So,

  3. install their desktop environment. So, install their desktop environment. So, with all of that said, let's go ahead with all of that said, let's go ahead with all of that said, let's go ahead and jump into a virtual machine and try and jump into a virtual machine and try and jump into a virtual machine and try out this distribution. All right, so out this distribution. All right, so out this distribution. All right, so here we are in Dalie OS. Now, the here we are in Dalie OS. Now, the here we are in Dalie OS. Now, the display wasn't really cooperating, but display wasn't really cooperating, but display wasn't really cooperating, but luckily, X R and R, just a simple set luckily, X R and R, just a simple set luckily, X R and R, just a simple set command, worked perfectly fine. Now, command, worked perfectly fine. Now, command, worked perfectly fine. Now, this download was, I think, for the this download was, I think, for the this download was, I think, for the legacy version. There's two different legacy version. There's two different legacy version. There's two different versions. You have the EFI version and versions. You have the EFI version and versions. You have the EFI version and then the legacy just standard ISO. then the legacy just standard ISO. then the legacy just standard ISO. The legacy was under 500 MB, and I think The legacy was under 500 MB, and I think The legacy was under 500 MB, and I think the EFI is closer to a gigabyte. So, the EFI is closer to a gigabyte. So, the EFI is closer to a gigabyte. So, when it comes to the actual download when it comes to the actual download when it comes to the actual download size, it's moderately lightweight. And size, it's moderately lightweight. And size, it's moderately lightweight. And the reason why I had to set this right the reason why I had to set this right the reason why I had to set this right here is cuz the first thing we'll go here is cuz the first thing we'll go here is cuz the first thing we'll go ahead and check out real quick is the ahead and check out real quick is the ahead and check out real quick is the actual settings. So, settings is actual settings. So, settings is actual settings. So, settings is beautiful, and you can see just how beautiful, and you can see just how beautiful, and you can see just how snappy everything is, especially snappy everything is, especially snappy everything is, especially considering how good the general UI considering how good the general UI considering how good the general UI looks. Under network, we have all the looks. Under network, we have all the looks. Under network, we have all the basic settings you'd expect, including basic settings you'd expect, including basic settings you'd expect, including some VPN and DNS stuff. We have some some VPN and DNS stuff. We have some some VPN and DNS stuff. We have some connected devices. Again, this is a connected devices. Again, this is a connected devices. Again, this is a virtual machine, so I can't really test virtual machine, so I can't really test virtual machine, so I can't really test a lot of this stuff. And a lot of the a lot of this stuff. And a lot of the a lot of this stuff. And a lot of the settings elements are here, but they settings elements are here, but they settings elements are here, but they don't actually don't actually don't actually do anything. For example, under phone do anything. For example, under phone do anything. For example, under phone integration, you can see it's just integration, you can see it's just integration, you can see it's just showing a little logo. No actual showing a little logo. No actual showing a little logo. No actual settings associated with it. Now, I'm settings associated with it. Now, I'm settings associated with it. Now, I'm going to go ahead and skip customization going to go ahead and skip customization going to go ahead and skip customization for now. We'll come back to that. Under for now. We'll come back to that. Under for now. We'll come back to that. Under display, you can see I have absolutely display, you can see I have absolutely display, you can see I have absolutely no settings. Thus, why I needed to open no settings. Thus, why I needed to open no settings. Thus, why I needed to open up the terminal and the X R and R up the terminal and the X R and R up the terminal and the X R and R command. We have some sound stuff, or we command. We have some sound stuff, or we command. We have some sound stuff, or we don't have some sound stuff. Locale, don't have some sound stuff. Locale, don't have some sound stuff. Locale, notifications, applications all are

  4. notifications, applications all are notifications, applications all are empty settings panes. And then under empty settings panes. And then under empty settings panes. And then under system, we have developer options, so I system, we have developer options, so I system, we have developer options, so I can enable developer mode and debugging can enable developer mode and debugging can enable developer mode and debugging features if I would like to. And then we features if I would like to. And then we features if I would like to. And then we have about this device. You can see we have about this device. You can see we have about this device. You can see we are running Linux 5.17. This is a custom are running Linux 5.17. This is a custom are running Linux 5.17. This is a custom Linux kernel. The architecture is Linux kernel. The architecture is Linux kernel. The architecture is currently unknown. This is their desktop currently unknown. This is their desktop currently unknown. This is their desktop environment. I'm probably going to say environment. I'm probably going to say environment. I'm probably going to say this wrong, Pangolin, something. this wrong, Pangolin, something. this wrong, Pangolin, something. Under software update, updates are Under software update, updates are Under software update, updates are currently disabled. This is running as a currently disabled. This is running as a currently disabled. This is running as a live disk image. live disk image. live disk image. At least, I haven't been able to find a At least, I haven't been able to find a At least, I haven't been able to find a installer, so I don't think that installer, so I don't think that installer, so I don't think that actually installing this onto a device actually installing this onto a device actually installing this onto a device is enabled as of yet. We have some legal is enabled as of yet. We have some legal is enabled as of yet. We have some legal notices, so two licenses are required notices, so two licenses are required notices, so two licenses are required for the stack walker, and then any other for the stack walker, and then any other for the stack walker, and then any other components that have licenses that they components that have licenses that they components that have licenses that they use are all available here. And just use are all available here. And just use are all available here. And just kind of scrolling through these, you can kind of scrolling through these, you can kind of scrolling through these, you can see just the animations they have here see just the animations they have here see just the animations they have here are absolutely beautiful. I'm going to are absolutely beautiful. I'm going to are absolutely beautiful. I'm going to go back real quick, and now we're going go back real quick, and now we're going go back real quick, and now we're going to go up to customization. A lot of the to go up to customization. A lot of the to go up to customization. A lot of the stuff that you'd expect, the actual UI, stuff that you'd expect, the actual UI, stuff that you'd expect, the actual UI, you kind of see what's going on here.

  5. you kind of see what's going on here. you kind of see what's going on here. Reminds me a lot of like Deepin mixed Reminds me a lot of like Deepin mixed Reminds me a lot of like Deepin mixed with Windows 11 with some of mobile with Windows 11 with some of mobile with Windows 11 with some of mobile elements. So, right here, we have the elements. So, right here, we have the elements. So, right here, we have the option to switch between a light and option to switch between a light and option to switch between a light and dark theme. Nice little transition dark theme. Nice little transition dark theme. Nice little transition there. there. there. We have our accent colors, so you can We have our accent colors, so you can We have our accent colors, so you can see all the reds, green, blue. Really, see all the reds, green, blue. Really, see all the reds, green, blue. Really, whatever you want. Right here, taskbar whatever you want. Right here, taskbar whatever you want. Right here, taskbar alignment. I do like the default here. alignment. I do like the default here. alignment. I do like the default here. This is what I currently have my Windows This is what I currently have my Windows This is what I currently have my Windows partition set up as with the Start All partition set up as with the Start All partition set up as with the Start All Back icons in the middle. Start menu is Back icons in the middle. Start menu is Back icons in the middle. Start menu is still over here on the left. Over here, still over here on the left. Over here, still over here on the left. Over here, we have the window border radius. So, if we have the window border radius. So, if we have the window border radius. So, if I go ahead and pump this up a bit, let's I go ahead and pump this up a bit, let's I go ahead and pump this up a bit, let's see if it actually changes anything. see if it actually changes anything. see if it actually changes anything. Which it doesn't look like it is. If I Which it doesn't look like it is. If I Which it doesn't look like it is. If I enable the colored title bars, it's enable the colored title bars, it's enable the colored title bars, it's enabling that. It's black. Maybe if I enabling that. It's black. Maybe if I enabling that. It's black. Maybe if I change this. So, yeah, some things are change this. So, yeah, some things are change this. So, yeah, some things are there, some things are not there. there, some things are not there. there, some things are not there. Transparent colored title bars. Does it Transparent colored title bars. Does it Transparent colored title bars. Does it change with this? No, it doesn't. But, change with this? No, it doesn't. But, change with this? No, it doesn't. But, it's cool that that's actually an it's cool that that's actually an it's cool that that's actually an option. That's the first time I've seen option. That's the first time I've seen option. That's the first time I've seen title bar settings integrated into title bar settings integrated into title bar settings integrated into settings pane like this. And then of settings pane like this. And then of settings pane like this. And then of course, we have search. So, if I want to course, we have search. So, if I want to course, we have search. So, if I want to search something such as Wi-Fi, it search something such as Wi-Fi, it search something such as Wi-Fi, it isn't searching.

  6. isn't searching. isn't searching. Blue. Yeah, so that doesn't work either. Blue. Yeah, so that doesn't work either. Blue. Yeah, so that doesn't work either. A lot of elements don't work, but they A lot of elements don't work, but they A lot of elements don't work, but they have a really good canvas to work off of have a really good canvas to work off of have a really good canvas to work off of here. So, getting into the general UI here. So, getting into the general UI here. So, getting into the general UI before we start opening some more of before we start opening some more of before we start opening some more of these applications, I can install the these applications, I can install the these applications, I can install the start menu for a second there. It's a start menu for a second there. It's a start menu for a second there. It's a full-screen categorized start menu. So, full-screen categorized start menu. So, full-screen categorized start menu. So, we have all of our applications. We have we have all of our applications. We have we have all of our applications. We have media, gaming, development, office, media, gaming, development, office, media, gaming, development, office, system, and internet. If I search for system, and internet. If I search for system, and internet. If I search for something, let's see if it actually something, let's see if it actually something, let's see if it actually works. works. works. Oh, that's weird. Oh, that's weird. Oh, that's weird. Need to fix that. Web. So, that works. Need to fix that. Web. So, that works. Need to fix that. Web. So, that works. The actual search thing right here looks The actual search thing right here looks The actual search thing right here looks really cool. If I click on this, does really cool. If I click on this, does really cool. If I click on this, does anything happen? No, it does not, but anything happen? No, it does not, but anything happen? No, it does not, but search works at least. And it looks like search works at least. And it looks like search works at least. And it looks like from down here, we can also get to our from down here, we can also get to our from down here, we can also get to our search this way. Right next to it, we search this way. Right next to it, we search this way. Right next to it, we have our workspaces. So, you can open have our workspaces. So, you can open have our workspaces. So, you can open new desktops, go to other desktops. I'm new desktops, go to other desktops. I'm new desktops, go to other desktops. I'm not sure why that's showing up as the not sure why that's showing up as the not sure why that's showing up as the background. Let's try to open up a new background. Let's try to open up a new background. Let's try to open up a new desktop. Ah, that doesn't work either. desktop. Ah, that doesn't work either. desktop. Ah, that doesn't work either. So, this operating system is kind of So, this operating system is kind of So, this operating system is kind of feeling more like a prototype than feeling more like a prototype than feeling more like a prototype than anything. If we go down here, this is anything. If we go down here, this is anything. If we go down here, this is our system tray and clock. So, if I give our system tray and clock. So, if I give our system tray and clock. So, if I give this an open, this looks really good this an open, this looks really good this an open, this looks really good here. We have our volume control, very here. We have our volume control, very here. We have our volume control, very nice slider. We have shortcuts to new nice slider. We have shortcuts to new nice slider. We have shortcuts to new events, alpha build, a website. Um events, alpha build, a website. Um events, alpha build, a website. Um There, I click on one of these. Let's There, I click on one of these. Let's There, I click on one of these. Let's try to open the website. Nope. Can I add try to open the website. Nope. Can I add try to open the website. Nope. Can I add a new shortcut? Nope.

  7. a new shortcut? Nope. a new shortcut? Nope. So, here, supposedly, we can change our So, here, supposedly, we can change our So, here, supposedly, we can change our theme, which that works. It's just a theme, which that works. It's just a theme, which that works. It's just a light and dark switcher. Or I can open light and dark switcher. Or I can open light and dark switcher. Or I can open up Ooh, that's cool. The settings and up Ooh, that's cool. The settings and up Ooh, that's cool. The settings and then quickly change my accent colors then quickly change my accent colors then quickly change my accent colors here if I would like to. Uh so, let's go here if I would like to. Uh so, let's go here if I would like to. Uh so, let's go back. Uh airplane mode, Bluetooth. So, back. Uh airplane mode, Bluetooth. So, back. Uh airplane mode, Bluetooth. So, if everything worked properly, I mean, if everything worked properly, I mean, if everything worked properly, I mean, this would be a really cool like tablet this would be a really cool like tablet this would be a really cool like tablet OS. Here we have settings, log in, log OS. Here we have settings, log in, log OS. Here we have settings, log in, log out. If I click on root, doesn't look out. If I click on root, doesn't look out. If I click on root, doesn't look like we have any other user accounts to like we have any other user accounts to like we have any other user accounts to choose from other than our root. So, I choose from other than our root. So, I choose from other than our root. So, I mean, like I said a second ago, pretty mean, like I said a second ago, pretty mean, like I said a second ago, pretty good canvas they're working off here. good canvas they're working off here. good canvas they're working off here. Uh web app manager with the actual text Uh web app manager with the actual text Uh web app manager with the actual text not properly centered. So, here, uh web not properly centered. So, here, uh web not properly centered. So, here, uh web apps. Looks like we have Discord, Visual apps. Looks like we have Discord, Visual apps. Looks like we have Discord, Visual Code Studio. Code Studio. Code Studio. Google, Minecraft Classic. Let's try to Google, Minecraft Classic. Let's try to Google, Minecraft Classic. Let's try to just grab Discord. just grab Discord. just grab Discord. Aw. So, none of these work. Again, good Aw. So, none of these work. Again, good Aw. So, none of these work. Again, good idea. idea. idea. Open this up. We have our settings, Open this up. We have our settings, Open this up. We have our settings, calculator. Ooh, that's a pretty calculator. Ooh, that's a pretty calculator. Ooh, that's a pretty calculator application. Not sure why calculator application. Not sure why calculator application. Not sure why it's green. You'd think it would match it's green. You'd think it would match it's green. You'd think it would match the accent colors. Oh, there's no the accent colors. Oh, there's no the accent colors. Oh, there's no snapping features. Oh, crap, it did snapping features. Oh, crap, it did snapping features. Oh, crap, it did install all those.

  8. install all those. install all those. Discord, Google. Discord, Google. Discord, Google. Okay. So, it just wasn't giving me any Okay. So, it just wasn't giving me any Okay. So, it just wasn't giving me any confirmations. confirmations. confirmations. I'll go to those in just a sec. I'll go to those in just a sec. I'll go to those in just a sec. Terminal. Um this is Linux, so if I run Terminal. Um this is Linux, so if I run Terminal. Um this is Linux, so if I run like uname, yep, Linux. Uh uname, is it like uname, yep, Linux. Uh uname, is it like uname, yep, Linux. Uh uname, is it {dash}r to get the kernel version? Okay, {dash}r to get the kernel version? Okay, {dash}r to get the kernel version? Okay, so let's see. Do we have Neofetch? so let's see. Do we have Neofetch? so let's see. Do we have Neofetch? That'd be cool. We do have Neofetch. That'd be cool. We do have Neofetch. That'd be cool. We do have Neofetch. Dalie OS. This is VMware right now. The Dalie OS. This is VMware right now. The Dalie OS. This is VMware right now. The reason I have it in VMware is cuz it reason I have it in VMware is cuz it reason I have it in VMware is cuz it really wasn't wanting to cooperate with really wasn't wanting to cooperate with really wasn't wanting to cooperate with me under VirtualBox. Uh ZSH, cool. Right me under VirtualBox. Uh ZSH, cool. Right me under VirtualBox. Uh ZSH, cool. Right here, the looks like we're only using here, the looks like we're only using here, the looks like we're only using 443 443 443 MB of RAM. So, that is fantastic MB of RAM. So, that is fantastic MB of RAM. So, that is fantastic performance. Let's go ahead and open up performance. Let's go ahead and open up performance. Let's go ahead and open up our web browser and see if Actually, our web browser and see if Actually, our web browser and see if Actually, before we do that, let's open up Htop. before we do that, let's open up Htop. before we do that, let's open up Htop. Is Htop installed? It is installed. Is Htop installed? It is installed. Is Htop installed? It is installed. Cool. Okay, so let's open up a web Cool. Okay, so let's open up a web Cool. Okay, so let's open up a web browser. Oh, our memory kind of got browser. Oh, our memory kind of got browser. Oh, our memory kind of got screwed up there. So, it's jumping up to screwed up there. So, it's jumping up to screwed up there. So, it's jumping up to 600. Let's go to an actual website here. 600. Let's go to an actual website here. 600. Let's go to an actual website here. If I go to TechCut, If I go to TechCut, If I go to TechCut, go to our Tech Hut website, it's still go to our Tech Hut website, it's still go to our Tech Hut website, it's still at 600 MB of RAM. So, when they say it's at 600 MB of RAM. So, when they say it's at 600 MB of RAM. So, when they say it's lightweight, they were not joking lightweight, they were not joking lightweight, they were not joking around. Oh, yeah. techhut.tv, check it around. Oh, yeah. techhut.tv, check it around. Oh, yeah. techhut.tv, check it out. Let's go to a website that I know out. Let's go to a website that I know out. Let's go to a website that I know doesn't really uh help with system doesn't really uh help with system doesn't really uh help with system resources. See if we can get this to go resources. See if we can get this to go resources. See if we can get this to go above a gig. Cuz if it doesn't go above above a gig. Cuz if it doesn't go above above a gig. Cuz if it doesn't go above a gig on a YouTube video, that is a gig on a YouTube video, that is a gig on a YouTube video, that is phenomenal. So, let's search up a video phenomenal. So, let's search up a video phenomenal. So, let's search up a video that I won't get stricken for. So, we that I won't get stricken for. So, we that I won't get stricken for. So, we are uh just barely above a gig playing are uh just barely above a gig playing are uh just barely above a gig playing this ad here. So, at least in the early this ad here. So, at least in the early this ad here. So, at least in the early stages of this uh distribution here,

  9. stages of this uh distribution here, stages of this uh distribution here, when they do when they say lightweight, when they do when they say lightweight, when they do when they say lightweight, they really do mean lightweight. So, they really do mean lightweight. So, they really do mean lightweight. So, with that, let's go ahead and open up with that, let's go ahead and open up with that, let's go ahead and open up some more of these applications here. We some more of these applications here. We some more of these applications here. We have a basic text editor, which this is have a basic text editor, which this is have a basic text editor, which this is beautiful. I wonder if it supports beautiful. I wonder if it supports beautiful. I wonder if it supports markdown out of the box. Test. markdown out of the box. Test. markdown out of the box. Test. Nope. Nope. Nope. But, from a UI standpoint, this is But, from a UI standpoint, this is But, from a UI standpoint, this is immaculate. Uh we have print, share, immaculate. Uh we have print, share, immaculate. Uh we have print, share, save, and all the different headings, save, and all the different headings, save, and all the different headings, and bolds, and whatever it is that we and bolds, and whatever it is that we and bolds, and whatever it is that we may need to edit. So, next up, we have may need to edit. So, next up, we have may need to edit. So, next up, we have Graft. Now, this is already in a virtual Graft. Now, this is already in a virtual Graft. Now, this is already in a virtual machine, so this probably isn't going to machine, so this probably isn't going to machine, so this probably isn't going to work very well. But, this is a virtual work very well. But, this is a virtual work very well. But, this is a virtual machine manager written in Flutter, or machine manager written in Flutter, or machine manager written in Flutter, or at least the UI front elements are. Um at least the UI front elements are. Um at least the UI front elements are. Um so, so, so, is there an actual Macintosh thing on is there an actual Macintosh thing on is there an actual Macintosh thing on here? Can I click on anything? I can't here? Can I click on anything? I can't here? Can I click on anything? I can't click on any of these arrows. So, can I click on any of these arrows. So, can I click on any of these arrows. So, can I just start this one? just start this one? just start this one? Uh Uh Uh Restart, destroy. Restart, destroy. Restart, destroy. New. New. New. New. New. New. Okay. So, that's not working either. Okay. So, that's not working either. Okay. So, that's not working either. From a UI perspective, it is it's From a UI perspective, it is it's From a UI perspective, it is it's looking really good. Files, their file looking really good. Files, their file looking really good. Files, their file manager looks almost identical to a web manager looks almost identical to a web manager looks almost identical to a web browser, which I do really like. Going browser, which I do really like. Going browser, which I do really like. Going under root, making a new folder, folder under root, making a new folder, folder under root, making a new folder, folder name, test, enter. So, uh name, test, enter. So, uh name, test, enter. So, uh we found something on this operating we found something on this operating we found something on this operating system that works. That's good. Media, system that works. That's good. Media, system that works. That's good. Media, there doesn't seem to be much going on.

  10. there doesn't seem to be much going on. there doesn't seem to be much going on. There's a lot of whatever this is. There's a lot of whatever this is. There's a lot of whatever this is. Uh the media application just seems like Uh the media application just seems like Uh the media application just seems like a really standard mobile media a really standard mobile media a really standard mobile media application, similar to the just basic application, similar to the just basic application, similar to the just basic like Gallery application that we have on like Gallery application that we have on like Gallery application that we have on a on Google phones here. The clock a on Google phones here. The clock a on Google phones here. The clock application is a clock application. It application is a clock application. It application is a clock application. It indeed tells us the time, and it is the indeed tells us the time, and it is the indeed tells us the time, and it is the correct time, too. So, that's cool. correct time, too.
