"Tenebra is an atmospheric puzzle game with rogue-like aesthetics. Guide the hapless protagonist to the exit. Poor guy is afraid of darkness and refuses to walk in the dark areas."
He's been right more times that I can count. Abrasive guy for sure, but he has decided not to suffer idiots. And he does what he does for himself; we are lucky beneficiaries.
Agree wrt your arguments; it's also why I write this in a browser in a VM that is not used for anything else than this sort of thing, and periodically I will roll back to a recent snap shot with a clean browser.
I know what Theo says about (x86) virtualization[1], but I think it's still useful to virtually separate your random browsing the web from things like health and banking, or where you keep your ssh keys (if you don't use a Yubikey or similar to keep it off your laptop) -- or other secrets.
You can be a victim of a random drive-by, you don't have to be a person on a "list".
Archimedes Live is a project by Paul Stone which allows anyone to try out an emulated Acorn Archimedes computer in their web browser. The Archimedes, first released in 1987, was Acorn's 32-bit successor to the BBC Micro. Acorn also created the ARM2 processor at the heart of the Archimedes - the ancestor of the ARM chips that power billions of smartphones, computers and other devices around the world today.
The emulator itself is a WebAssembly port of Sarah Walker's excellent Arculator Archimedes emulator.
I can tell you now that 2022 was the year of Linux on the desktop with Apple+Parallels! :)
I have a mini datacenter on my desk right now with 5 Debian machines running, 1 Windows 10, 1 OpenBSD machine as gateway for the others. No lag.
Just now I fired up YouTube on 3 of these Debian machines in Firefox as well as one in the Windows 10 VM. All running full screen 1080p videos (a wide second display with 3 VM's, the main display showing the Windows VM). No lag.
Also, I have _never_ heard the fan on this thing. Unsure if it has one! :)
The CPU/GPU combo is of course great, but it's the 400GB/s memory bandwidth that makes all the difference I think.
