LCARS already has a UNIX kernel. Didn’t you know that?

I did not!

I didn’t either, but it sounded plausible.

negativenull,

Far more likely than Windows!

Aggravationstation,

There is an LCARS desktop environment for Linux lcarsde.github.io

Canonically in Voyager their computers run macOS. BSD is pretty great.

There a scene with a macOS cursor visible.

Mach/BSD 🤓

The actual kernel of XNU (ie. what’s under the hood in macOS, originally by NeXT) is Mach which is a microkernel, and a chunk of FreeBSD is used to provide userland(ish) stuff like POSIX APIs, a UNIX process model on top of Mach, protocol stacks 'n shit.

Just eject the warp core … and reinsert it again.

Like a battery when you want to restart your device.
