A humorous, informal monologue exploring the question of what an operating system actually is. The speaker walks through traditional OS concepts like memory management, RAM, virtual address translation, process scheduling, and peripheral management, then contrasts this with a tongue-in-cheek 'modern' definition where an OS is just Slack, iMessage, and cron jobs running in a loop. The piece pokes fun at how the definition of an OS has become muddled in modern discourse.
