It's not the same at all. 86box emulates the whole PC, every component and peripheral. NTVDM is just a compatibility layer.

Not true. I have an old laptop with no TPM and it still bugs me to upgrade to Windows 11, even though it doesn't meet the hardware requirements.

> Even Linux supports running 64-bit code in a 32-bit address space ("x32 ABI") for this reason. I don't think that ever had much, if any, adoption and it looks like it will be removed in the next few releases.

It's more of a QML competitor. I don't think it has anything comparable to QtWidgets.

You're talking past each other, about different articles.

86box is a PC emulator, not a compatibility layer.

It says 32-bit support completely removed, so I doubt it.

Had to shorten the title to fit the HN limit. Original title: Inside Xbox's margin crush: A string of misses at Xbox Game Studios, misguided Game Pass decisions, and the memory rout at its core

I played it back when it came out on a P166 in software mode and it was fine at that resolution.

It is mentioned as a reason why the recent Sony and Nintendo consoles no longer have a general purpose web browser.

You don't need the 16GB model to watch movies, you can do that on the cheapest ones.

People have been saying this for years, yet Raspberry Pis just keep on selling with no trouble.

They hold up pretty well when you play them as they were originally supposed to: on a CRT if you can or using emulators' CRT filters if you can't. Trying to play them at very high resolutions on crisp LCD displays is the worst way

Game engines are no different than web browsers for this use case.

You paste code in more places than just your editor.

I have a feeling they may have pushed for that more because it was controlled by a third party, and not the browser developers themselves.

What source code?

Doubtful. Isn't Mini Micro build on Unity? That has much higher system requirements.

Because that's not a RISC-V standard but a custom extension implemented by one chip.

Scrolling is extremely laggy.

I have an old laptop with a GT 240M that's stuck in such a situation.

Doesn't that count anything that has 'unsafe' in it, not just the keyword?
