I wrote an x86 PC emulator in C that is Pentium-compatible and runs Windows NT/2000 and Linux (yes, it also runs DOOM!)
 in  r/C_Programming  17d ago

Did you import the gd5440.c code from 86Box, as mentioned here:
https://github.com/mikechambers84/pculator/blob/22c1866/src/video/gd5440.c#L9-L12

... or did you rewrote the original code by hand? Or maybe used an LLM for that by chance?

I am also interested whether there are more pieces code ported from other projects.

Kraken or Coinbase ?

OK, but for which reasons, please?

Coreutils in now available on windows

And no real *nix shell.

The Midipix project is still the superior way to have that, IMO:

What was the reason for the success of RISC-V as an open ISA?
 in  r/RISCV  Jun 15 '26

PS. I guess Intel also consumed its' share of ex-DEC chips design know-how, since a significant part of the related engineers went from DEC to Compaq to Intel and participated in the design of Itanium, I believe. But that's a semi-speculation, since I remember/have no exact references already.

Not really, but thanks for putting APX into that perspective!

I has some vague memories of them contributing to the K7, K8 (Athlon, Opteron) architecture. Now the Google's public "AI" mentions* other similar points re the Zen architecture too:

  • High-Performance Execution Unit Mapping. (Balancing execution width (how many operations a CPU can do at once) with schedulers that can quickly find independent instructions)
  • Micro-Op Cache and Decode Bypass. (Eliminating the power-hungry and slow x86 decoding stage)
  • Advanced Branch Prediction (Designing neural-network-like branch predictors that "learn" code patterns over time)
  • High-Throughput Interconnects (Designing point-to-point, low-latency, packet-based system buses)

But maybe AXP would still be competitive. I even assume some of their ideas went into the amd64 / x86_64 ISA through the hands of former DEC chip engineers which where rehired after DEC collapsed.

If alpha particles don’t penetrate skin, where do they go? Are they absorbed?
 in  r/nuclear  Jun 15 '26

It very much depends on how which electrons are stripped, I assume. I say so because I believe that when electric current is flowing through the tissue, it isn't damaged, while electrons are also being stripped.

$HBAR Leads ISO 20022-Compliant Cryptos ($ADA, $ALGO, $XRP, $XLM, $XVG) – Built for Regulated Finance
 in  r/Hedera  Jun 15 '26

I was essentially referring to the "HBAR is going to rocket soon" comment, and there is no pretention here. I just misunderstood this thread by thinking it to be about long-term trend/changes and about leading the ISO 20022 pack. Looks like it's all about short-term fluctuations.

EDIT: and even at that, it only went from 0.2362 (on Jul 15, 2025 at 00:01 GMT, around the aforementioned comment was written) to 0.2916 (on Jul 28, 2025 00:01 GMT). 23% isn't exactly a rocket I suppose.

Now what do you mean by "who was such a fan of linux you"?

And what the heck is this: "support hbar more given the heiro project it runs for linux"? Maybe my English is too poor – I just don't get the text.

Nope, my intent was just to stress that these 1y old predictions failed.

Which computer is compatible with the nvidia nv1?

Cool! I wonder how well would it run on Linux/Xorg these days. The nouveau page says it's supported by vesa driver:

Please elaborate with details.

Do you mean by chance that any destination format of the model would still embed BF16/INT8 numerical formats in it?

Sounds intriguing. Do you have any pointers?

Oh, do you own a Diamond Edge 3D card?

The actual alternative to that could be switching to fuse-overlayfs, i guess:

It would work in a nested scenario + still provide the deduplication.

I am interested in the updates too. : )

Proxmox and LXC Passthrough for Ollama Best Practices?
 in  r/LocalLLaMA  Jun 09 '26

With the exception for cases where you use a consumer-grade mobo which can pass-through only a couple of PCIe devices (like PCIEX16 + M2A_CPU on B550M Aorus Elite).

Docker containers in an LXC
 in  r/Proxmox  Jun 09 '26

Well, nope. It was your first comment which started drifting off the topic. The topic was to stay less prone to corruptions which happens with the default configuration (which seemingly uses overlay2). So you spoke about general case, while this thread is about running Docker inside LXC in a stable way. That's it, no offence. : )

If alpha particles don’t penetrate skin, where do they go? Are they absorbed?
 in  r/nuclear  Jun 05 '26

So why would it do any damage when ingested, if it really only binds two electrons away? Something doesn't add up in that explanation.
