gollark: Oh, actually there's option #3: just do single user mode and don't bother stopping editing of "OS" files.

gollark: Well, your current implementation lets them do stuff to OS files, so no.

gollark: I would recommend against #1, because weirdly enough people like being able to write, download and run programs.

gollark: In potatOS I do #2. Unfortunately the sandboxing implementation is about 500 lines of code, very version-specific because it runs half the BIOS for weird internal reasons, and has several known holes.

gollark: There are two ways around this:- make your "OS" unable to run arbitrary code and instead use a highly limited shell/GUI- sane sandboxing via providing no/a limited FS API to environments where you can run arbitrary code
