Flatware OS
This operating system leverages a feature of The Nanophage that restructures the neuropathways of the denizen and adjusts their physiology. Most commonly this is used to facilitate the streamlined learning of skills that would normally take extensive training to learn in real time. Multiple organizations and companies leverage this to quickly train employees to ensure they meet the needs of employment. As such there are many upgrades and extensions to the Flatware that exist for denizens to purchase and further advance themselves with their desired career paths.
Utility
Despite frequent attempts from LAGludites to prove otherwise, the Flatware OS distributed by the Terran Consortium is safe and stable for general usage among any impacted by The Nanophage. Abuse and harm that result from the unauthorized hacking and alteration of the Flatware OS are the primary cause for concern. The Terran Consortium maintains strict quality control standards to ensure the most recent authorized version of Flatware OS only enhances the lifestyle of the average denizen.
Other risks to denizens due to The Nanophage and the ability to install OS's come from post-human cults that seek to change what it means to be human on a fundamental level. Often these cults install non-tested non-authorized versions of an OS resulting in issues that range from unrepairable psycho-trauma to manifestations of unregulated hive minds. Physical mutations can also occur in a rapid fashion distorting the denizens physical form into something entirely unrecognizable. It is important to report these cults and practices to the Global Resource Council as soon as they are detected.
Access & Availability
Standard Flatware OS, or Flatware OS Vanilla, is the most commonly found version of the OS in circulation. It provides the user with the ability to seamlessly surf the cyberverse, provides basic biofeedback metrics, and a skill mapping utility as well as the augmentation tools needed to run a basic skill augmentation package. More advanced versions as well as paid tiered subscription services exist for various security and privacy needs a denizen may want to invest in as well as further upgrades to augmentation protocols.
Discovery
The ability to overlay an operating system to The Nanophage granting the denizens of the Terran Consortium to better shape who they want to be was discovered by the Observatory Atlantis Archology's Advancements Foundation. In CSY 52, this OS was deemed safe for use among the denizens impacted by The Nanophage. The generic OS that is distributed to all registered denizens is referred to as Flatware OS.
