23os

23os is a fictional operating system that appears in the animated television series Futurama. It is depicted as the default operating system on computers owned by the characters, particularly Fry. The name "23os" is a play on the then-current operating systems like Windows and Mac OS, with the "23" likely referencing the year 3000, the setting of the show, or the fictional 23rd century.

The operating system is shown to have a user interface that is somewhat primitive and often prone to errors, reflecting the humor and satirical nature of Futurama. In one notable episode, Fry attempts to update 23os, which results in a catastrophic system failure that causes the entire Planet Express building to malfunction. This event highlights the unreliability and user-unfriendliness of the fictional OS.

Despite its comedic portrayal, 23os serves as a running gag and a tool for plot development in Futurama, allowing for gags about technological obsolescence and the absurdity of advanced technology in a futuristic setting. The specific details of its functionality or technical specifications are never elaborated upon, as its primary purpose is comedic effect. It represents a caricature of operating systems, exaggerated for the sake of humor within the show's universe.
