Microsoft has something to learn here - spyware than don't bloat OS.

Love how all the errors were "you're not allowed to delete this file" They secured the spyware but not the OS

Meanwhile at Google: "a visitor on... RedStarOS??"

"It has some spyware preinstalled" . oh so its like Windows..

RedstarOS is all fun and games until a white van parks in your driveway

*Goes to university *Pops out laptop *Boots up NK's Linux

When your OS has more rights than you

7:12 And then you've got your terminal 7:14: *Door knocks*

Oppressed and open source

I could run that inside 5 virtual machines and behind 7 proxies and I still wouldn't feel safe.

Finally a distro that will end my distro hopping

Imagine a future so dystopian where we run RedStarOS to escape Big Tech spying.

Open-sourced by force not choice.

Countless governments are in the trap of corporate contracts for Office and Windows, while the Linux is free and better. N Korea knows what to pick.

*installs North Korean OS *removes firewall *googles capitalism

praise the Dear Leader for his coding skills! what a glorious distro!

Finally a Linux distro that will make windows users feel right at home

Imagine North Korea kidnapped one of r/unixporn member to make it looks like MacOS

Your "mouse flickering" is actually the system making screenshots every second, compressing them and sending them to NK.

Top 3 linux distros 1. Linux mint 2. Pop os/ubuntu 3. Redstar os Honorable mention Hannah montana linux

The HTTPS thing is because the browser doesn't support newer ciphers and root certificates(especially the Boulder one). If they wanted to remove encryption and SSL they could have just removed it in the browser entirely.

Next you should look at that Cuban state sponsored Linux distro Nova

Redstar OS filled with spyware..... meanwhile *Microsoft service* and *C.I.A.* : Interesting

Genuinely impressive OS in all honesty. Definitely some aspects to light weight usage that other Linux based OS platforms can learn from.

Thank you suprememe leader. I enjoy very much your opinions on the system. There is no need to fear people at house tonight. Do not be afraid.

glory to arstotzka

24:42 The reason you get the error message "connection reset" probably doesn't have to do anything with the fact that it's a North Korean OS or that the OS is actively blocking your connection to them, but rather the fact that the webserver you're trying to connect to is declining the version of the web browser that the OS is using. Maybe it's using an older HTTP protocol that the web server doesn't accept. And for the certificates, well, it's not because North Korean hate these HTTPS sites, the reason is that it's a closed down system, it doesn't have the known root certificates browsers like IE, Mozilla Chrome, etc have. If you install all the known root certificates, it'll probably work fine. Or maybe try installing another browser.

I love Naenara-chan ❤️ Thanks for using her in your thumbnail!

"Mom can we have linux?" "No we have linux at home" Linux at home:

Thank you for this video! My company has been using Red Star OS recently [upgraded from Holy C] for strictly processing highly sensitive customer data on our servers. We couldn't figure out what half of these features did as nobody in the company can read Korean.

It's impressive they've done a better Mac OS X clone than any other Geeks in the Free World have done

7:14 Someone's already knocking at his door

Pls do a review about this new distro by Microsoft called Windows 10. Jombo did a wonderful review. Expecting yours

I am very glad you tried out glorious Democratic People's Republic of Korea OS, comrade. Best Korea will prevail!

I would make a joke about communism, but I'm starving for a punchline and I don't have any state approved ones right now, come back in 10 years when it's ready?

"...not censored by the North Korean government, well...its still censored by Google..." Perfectly said.

Can we roast a dictator's rice?

NK is still 4:3 on everything. Their TV is a 16:9 stream with black bars over and under.

I'm not sure how true the "deeply embedded spyware" is, it was pretty easy to get Naenara to work as a normal web browser. Though it was horribly out of date being a reskinned Firefox 3.

16:28 After typing in the _R_ , muscle memory just took over, eh? 😉

12:34 That is Intranet. That is not accessible anywhere. Its a LOCAL ip range. You can use that IP in your local network also. I am guessing htat is how their Intranet is set, while 10.76.1.11 must be their "Google" or something. And VPN's don't exist there. With a country with ONE ASN registerd, with 512IPs or 1024 IPs, I do not think anyone can rent a server there. And EVEN if you do, that's a local 10.0.0.0/8 IP so you still wouldn't be able to access that.

It would be really interesting if you had your own network and tried to see what HTTP requests were sent by the OS.

"The first version appeared in 2008. It is very reminiscent of the Windows XP operating system." "Version 3.0 was introduced on 15 April 2012, its looks reminiscent of macOS operating systems." Somewhere, there's a guy saying: _You kids with your v3. I still use v1, _*_the best_*_ , and it works fine._

Whoever was in charge of the UI, they did a great job copying Mac OS X. They even copied the System Profiler!

I installed Minecraft on my Redstar PC Now it's *ourcraft*

This is what Linus should've used for his Linux daily drive challenge.

Would've been awesome if there was a network intercepter like wireshark or something running. Very curious to what kind of calls it makes

Kim Jong-un is actually both an Apple and Samsung fanboy. He has pictures where he was spotted using Samsung Galaxies and Apple iPhones in public.

I can imagine someone going up to a deepin user saying "Btw I use Redstar."

I heard that door knock at 7:15 when you opened the terminal deep in my soul

Red Star OS comes bundled with some VERY patriotic wallpapers already

You need to change the root certificates on your machine. Similar to Chinese ROMs which are suitable to the Chinese Great Firewall.

10:13 I wonder if Kim gets annoyed too. Well I can just imagine him using their fake-mac with 1990s pentium 1 mmx, trying hard to run kde, this little beachball flickering the fookout.

I am really interested in how this custom file tagging system works and whether or not it would be possible to remove or fake signatures (HEX editor or automated tool) in some way. I mean these signatures have to be injected into the file somehow....

Tbh this mac theme for KDE they are using is flawless

The only OS guaranteed to not glow in the dark.

ritual ancient chuch-he north korean sepukku by rm -rf / --no-preserve-root

That ending was just great man. Thanks for the laughs

At last, something blessed by the god and approved by the party (which is more important!)

7:13 We got the terminal. "knock knock!" Dang, are you okay, Kenny?

Red Star OS is the most efficient spyware os.. . . . . even GNOME uses more RAM for no useful reason :D

this review of ChromeOS is great! :D

The "hammer and sickle"-esque hammer and wrench isn't lost on me lmao. The designer probably got a second roll of toilet paper that month.

did i just hear someone knocking on the dorr in the video? or im just hallucinating?

yooo kim did the naenae

If you want it to use 16:9 you need to install guest additions within the vm. Before you try that though maybe put your pc inside of a faraday cage first

That's the best OS ever! I use it since I was born, and I suggest it to everyone!

The only glow-in-the-dark I approve of is the glowing radiance emanating from our Guiding Sun Ray , Kim Jong-un !

Somewhere alarm sirens are going off since this operating system should never see more then 2 Gigs or memory. They will search the country for weeks trying to find the culprits that smuggle modern computer hardware into the country before they realize that it was you all along.

The outro was so funny lol 😂

Sometimes I forget you're a real living breathing human being but these videos are a nice reminder

Super impressive still, they even made a fast functional Mac OS Finder with working Miller columns and full context menu!

Cool Video. Really like to see a deep dive into it. Also you literally had selected a wallpaper with heavy artillery and then just went on without even looking at it.

I worked at a uni in Pyongyang for a short time, and all the students had (used) laptops that ran XP. Unfortunately didn't see anyone rocking Redstar OS.

Americans are scared of Red Star OS but have 10k followers on TikTok. Something does not add up.

I'm surpised they couldn't get the glorious leader a 16:9 laptop, surely he watches movies on his computer sometimes.

Still way better than mac os

I feel so bad for North Koreans smh. Imagine spending the entirety of your lives like this.

Later on news: Mental Outlaw was kidnapped by NK state and executed by firing squad for sticky note on his desktop

I'm actually kinda jealous, my government would never develop a Linux distro just for us 😭

7:14 north korean government wants to know your location

It is cool how it forces 4-3 aspect ratio and all while that big TV they have in the outdoors is 4-3 aspect ratio too. Some koreans will like linux as a result so that is a positive. I do like 4-3 aspect ratio for multiple reasons _(e.g. it helps you "look-up" for spawn points or other things in FPS games like Halflife2 Lost-Coast style games, or e.g. it looks good on a smartphone screen no matter what way you tilt the screen landscape or portrait, or e.g. it looks good on a 4-3 iPad, or. e.g. it looks good on retro games and footage, or. e.g. it saves space with multiple monitors on a desk, or e.g. you can squeeze two 4-3 ratio screens one atop another in a vertical oriented monitor such as a gaming screen atop and then a VM below it for reading documents)._ As for filesystems, be it MSWindows or Linux or BSD (or Apple, RiscOS perhaps) or whatever, ReiserFS (or Reiser4, Reiser5) is a good choice in a journaling filesystem for being able to use it on many an OS. An example is ReiserDriver is an Installable File System Driver (IFSD), which can be used in combination with ways of using different file-systems on say a different HDD _(but remember to look for changes that help with a 16TB hard limit, and you will want to think over how to anticipate performance as the drive gets full)._ The ReiserFS is good for recovering files from errors and does not use so much RAM as say ZFS, generally. Consider using plugins from the version of Reiser4 and up. This information written above is to help people. My comment has no hate in it and I do no harm. I am not appalled or afraid, boasting or envying or complaining... Just saying. Psalms23: Giving thanks and praise to the Lord and peace and love. Also, I'd say Matthew6.

Encryption doesn't work properly on the regular internet because the Certificate Authority chains that usually comes pre-installed on the browser are not installed on RedStar. So it will ask you if you trust each certificate issuer on the chain and add it to the Computer's Trusted Certificate repository.

Bill Gates: Can I copy your spyware OS? Kim Jong Un: Go right ahead. Microsoft: Windows 10 & 11

A good point is that you cannot get malware on this OS. All malware are pre-installed...

But can it run Minecraft?

19:26 that menu layout looks almost exactly like apache openoffice. Of course different icons and they're slightly more to the right, but I think it might be a fork of that

Solid review as always, but the ending blew me away

The only secure OS

I'm surprised North Korea even has computers.

I'm surprised that Naenara browser has working appmenu support-- Firefox doesnt have it yet. UI looking better than modern Firefox too!

It imitates the old OS X theme really well!

But can it run doom?

Cool, but RedStar 4.0 is being used in North Korea now. You can see it from the Apache banner from a few North Korean websites that run on it. See view-source:www.vok.rep.kp/resources/ for example.

the rm -rf / --no-preserve-root was hilarious!

My man killed north korean os with 1 command

With how North Koera's "isolated" from outside word, i thought they would just pirate the heck out of everything, but in reality literally everything here is open-sourced, which is a how

Hi greg

The ending was awesome

Almost as much spyware and telemetry as windows 11, but less insidious.
