Yep...just saw this today and now get to rip it out of everything. Thankfully, I've been slogging to try to get my team to adopt NSubstitute. Sounds like I just got some ammo.

Another black bar +1. If anyone deserves it, it’s got to be the author of a critical part of my daily workflow for over 10 years.

Unless we're talking running x86/x64 binaries on ARM or something, WOW64 is not an emulator, since x86_64 chips support IA32 instructions natively. There is some small overhead from filesystem and registry path translation, as wel

To be fair, many (all?) of these ships are burning https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_fuel_oil , which is not at all like petrol in that it requires preheating and atomisation to burn.
