Very Basic of any Operating System

There are five basic of any Operating System.

First is the Booting Environment.

Second Is the Fire Wall Protection

The Third is Service or Software Environment.

Fourth is the Tasks Environment.

Fifth s the User Environment.

The Booting Environment is the basic OEM or the Equipment part which can be small like a cellphone but may be a cloud of computer network.

The firewall is the basic protection against the malecious intrusion or evesdropping.

The Service Environment is the minimum  Operating System and Utilities or Software that runs on the hardware and connect them into a seamless Physical or Virtual Environment.

The Software Environment is the multitude of functional utilities that do some real work on top of the basic platform.

The Environment that perform some simple or complex Tasks is the next level.

The most complicated environment is the User Environment that start with one or millions individuals from different linguistic  backgrounds.

Every.language has to cope with 25 English letters and F-1 to F-12 function keys and other input keys of the keyboard.

But the biggest Conflict Zone is the Booting  Zone where UEFI wants to rule.

This was not a problem with original BIOS.

Called sensible Basic Input Output System.

It is Input from the Keyboard and Mouse and output prom a dumb (before graphic cards were in place) or video terminal.

Now the Operating System has to be very simple depending on the equipment.

Android Operating System is very basic whereas computers with much horse power need more robust systems.

Depending on the human needs it is the software system that adds value to.the system.

Coming to the desktop needs are very simple.

Browser.

Email facility for communication.

Legible Language to communicate.

Basic Office utilities like word processor and financial or mathematical formats.

Visual or Virtual Desktop.

Mouse and the keyboard for inputs.

The computer environment at basic level should not be complicated.
Unlike the old days with mathematical geniuses running them.but now ordinary peoples are using them.

The cellphone is a minicomputer.

Using it for talking or calling or video conferencing is an absolute waste of millions of hours of developers day and night sweat and work output.

It is much more robust and useful piece of equipment and when it is overused, it becomes a nuisance.

It already is with iPhones and Google Pixel.

Do not buy them.for show off but buy some beer or wine and enjoy life now that lockdowns are easing (not in Ceylon).

Be mindful when using technologies like Apple iPods, Googles Pixel.devices and Androids who are constantly evesdropping every fraction of a second.

Is it worth the sum total?

Or ones individual sanctity?

That is the very reason I am out of here by Mid July.
