  • gen x here. mortgage, kids, etc. more than happy to exorcize the poltergeist of late stage capitalism with a nice focused, deep burn - if I can improve the future for my kids (and, perhaps, yours) I am ok with personal pain.

    I know this sounds trite, but my commitment is to a better future, not my mortgage. you later alphabet soup peeps need to show up at the fucking polls and vote. show the power you have. I promise, TPTB will start paying attention - because you are coming for them.

    a coalition of generations is needed here. I propbably wont be here for the worst of climate change, so those that will… vote and put your ideas out there. I think there is more gen x support for you than you think.









  • If you’re skeptical that this feat is possible with a raw 4004, you’re right: The 4004 itself is far too limited to run Linux directly. Instead, Grinberg created a solution that is equally impressive: an emulator that runs on the 4004 and emulates a MIPS R3000 processor—the architecture used in the DECstation 2100 workstation that Linux was originally ported to. This emulator, along with minimal hardware emulation, allows a stripped-down Debian Linux to boot to a command prompt.

    that is 2^8 levels of insane! and of course its Debian.

    edit: 4bit data 12bit addressing make it an 8bit processor ; -)

    I will slowly corrode on this hill.
