- jsheard 1y ago3kb of RAM and 24kb of flash is a bit tight for Doom unfortunately. It has been ported to another Cortex-M0+ microcontroller, the RP2040, but that has 264kb of RAM plus megabytes of flash and the game still barely fits.

- cruffle_duffle 1y agoI was just thinking about that slashdot meme the other day. Like Beowulf clusters were the dream! Imagine one! I wanted one! Everybody did!

- Breza 1y agoI feel the same way. I remember thinking back in the day that every office would have a cluster of old servers to fire up once a month for a big data task. Instead, you can get massively more power for less than $100 of credits on BigQuery.
