Those are virtual machines, not emulators. If you use a proper emulator like PCem or 86box, Windows 95 works fine.

If it wasn't intended to be human readable it would have been a binary format.

If hardware specs are the things you care about, Raspberry Pi has never been the best there. That hasn't stopped them becoming the most successful SBCs by far.

As far as I know, only this and the Steam Deck use Linux. Every other handheld gaming PC uses Windows.

Those are still huge though, for some reason.

It probably only uses one or two cores on consoles, the rest being reserved for the game running.

Can you get a refund if the game works at first, then gets broken by an update?

It can run operating systems, just not Linux.

It's using Flutter though, which isn't that much better.

What a weird comparison. The Switch released 3 or 4 years before the PS5. It's not surprising at all that it has outsold it.

Yeah, that's basically the Horizon situation I was referring to.

Let's just hope it doesn't turn into the Horizon- or Terminator-type of AI powered drones.

Like Valve, they initially repurposed an old SoC that was designed for something else, either set-top boxes or phones, don't remember which. After their success they started doing custom work on the follow-up SoCs.

They haven't demonstrated it at console-level prices.

X11, Wayland and WDDM only use the bare minimum functionality from those APIs, so they work just fine on old DX9-level GPUs for example. Godot needs much more recent GPUs.

Qt or Electron don't; they both have software renderers. The latest Godot needs a GLES 3 or Vulkan GPU. The older versions used to only need a GLES 2 GPU.

It's not like the myriads of these hobby OSes (written in Rust or otherwise) are any different. They're all Unix clones to various degrees.
