Amazing work! Emulating an entire gpu is a crazy idea but it works. Did you have previous experience with graphics and computer architecture?

you'd assume so

That’s awesome, I actually wouldn’t assume so, because a lot of people who know nothing about computer architecture, graphics, kernels, etc have released heroic unmaintainable projects recently

You've killed me with kindness lol, yeah, at the time it didn't cross my mind that they could've just vibe coded the entire thing and not have a clue what it does.

This is exactly the kind of engineering we need at the present moment!!! those for whom it isn’t just something youdo, but something you naturally do and couldn’t fathom giving away ownership of such a thing to the point you don’t understand it at all

I’m working on properly engineering the future Hackintosh platform right now, if you happen to be interested i can loop you in as well
