The real magic is that the chip has to emulate another old chip to manage the feat.

        All it takes is a little hypnosis and a bunch of LSD.

            Forward slash doesn’t throw a mental syntax error? ;)

        Normally the term for this is headless rendering, but I think in this case it’s more like head-only rendering 😆

        I can run a mod of doom with photorealistic graphics, all I need is a shotgun and a chainsaw.

        I am a neural network that can generate highly photorealistic frames of Doom that seem like real life. I have no output port so these images cannot be seen by others.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
