Comment on MenuetOS: An entire operating system in x86_64 assemblyparent

You can take a guess about the country in question.

For the curious, it appears to have been done by people in Russia (state-sponsored or not is unclear)

It would be ridiculous for a state to sponsor a toy OS. I think it's absurd.

No proof whether it's state-sponsored or not, and this is called out in the thread. I thought I had carefully chosen my word when I said "people in Russia", where not every people in that country is working for the state ;)

ReactOS?

I wouldn't classify ReactOS as "toy", and I believe Russia stopped sponsoring it many years ago.
