    Video without the “article”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWnN-FA3zRM

    Sourcecode: https://github.com/ading2210/linuxpdf

    It’s TinyEMU under the hood:

    TinyEMU is a system emulator for the RISC-V and x86 architectures. Its purpose is to be small and simple while being complete.

    It has a javascript version, JSLinux, that’s embedded in the pdf. You can run other OS-es in the browser with that, see link. It has X window support, so it should be possible to run a full GUI operating system in a pdf.

        Eleven. This OS was released in the time before the war. There never was a Windows Twelve.

      I would be more impressed if it was written in Postscript.
