I highly recommend the "Masters of Doom" book mentioned in the article. It gives a lot of insight in what motivated and inspired the people of iD as well as provides some technical details of how they accomplished things. It'

Why do commercial airliners in Russia prefer Boeing/Airbus over domestic models? Are the Western planes cheaper to operate?

Since it targets RNA replication, I wonder if it may have efficacy against other retroviruses.

My initial reaction to the title was "what genre is WASM?". Then I remembered it means web assembly.

You are correct; there are even tools to view this information. Perhaps these "refurbishers" know how to reset the health data stored in the SSD.

My mom's IBM 8088 had GW-BASIC built into its BIOS. You could turn on the computer and go straight into it without having any storage medium present.

SGI emulation has been a thing since the late 90's with SimOS (console only though) and more recently with MAME (full support for Irix desktop) as well as user space emulation with qemu-irix. I'm running a Irix 6.2 desktop on my P

Even though volume has gone up, the cost of making a triple AAA game is much higher than it use to be. Current day triple AAA titles are way more complex; they feature a ton of professional acting, highly detailed artwork, etc. Also, as you

I can't remember if it was full speed but it was perfectly playable to emulate SM64 with UltraHLE on my Pentium 200MMX OC to 225MHz with a Voodoo 2 8MB and 96MB of RAM. I had to run it in Windows NT5 beta though, it stuttered in Window

The SDK used the compiler from the IDO 5.3 package which was provided by SGI for developing in IRIX 5.3 (if you paid the extra for that option). I think by then it would have already been pretty mature.
