Tacos are an embarrassingly parallel problem after all. It makes sense TacOS would naturally be a thing. It might even need to be hard real time because hangry customers can get a little cagey.

There is at least an OS like environment called Nachos (Not Another Completely Heuristic Operating System) used many moons ago in the University OS class. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_Another_Completely_Heuristic_Operating_System https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_Another_Completely_Heurist... https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~tom/nachos/ https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~tom/nachos/ (Not sure what the possible relation to Taos would be, to make this OT. ;-)
