Regardless of whether the OS is the kernel, or the the kernel plus the
surrounding computational processes that manipulate the various levels
of the system.

The OS is a simple abstraction, though quite complex in meaning. And
regardless of it being the nicest, most technologically advanced
piece-of-hacker's-minds purchaseable by commercial abstractions, it
doesn't mean a damn thing, when you don't even get the decent freedom of
extending it much more when you don't even have access to the source.

Yes, it is a Pandora's box of hacks. But anyway, we can all work on the
Promethean enterprise called programming.
