PlaceholderOS is a bootleg Examplenix Update Pack 1 edition, which was created by nft_ptr (also known as John Doe). It released on January 1, 1900, and was added to the archive on January 1, 2025.

Examplenix has some other unique bootlegs as well, such as "FPO 32-bit Edition".

Description

The OS is a modified Examplenix Update Pack 1 ISO. It adds some new programs and wallpapers. It comes with 293581 new wallpapers, 42 fonts, 3000 new cursors, and a portable coffee machine with void* flavor and time machine which can go both ways back a trillion years attached to it, but remains mostly stock from Examplenix.

One of the most interesting features of this bootleg is that it comes with a tin can and a string to easily communicate between 2 different continents.

Notes

Remarks

• This is a placeholder article. Do not take anything in this article seriously or as fact in any circumstances. Any references to non-fictional entities are intentional, why do you think they're there in the first place? Why else would they be there? As decoration?? Anyways this is the Notes section. In here, you can put any particularly interesting things you find in the bootleg itself here.
• It is generally recommended to be mostly serious in your writing (so that means do not make the entire article a satire like this one), but you may relax that a little bit in this Notes section.

Bootleg quirks

• The system has more placeholder strings than its source. Not enough tin cans to provide satisfactory results. Sure.
• The console colors are now white on black.
