Did you know that CSS is Turing-complete?

Someone has taken this to the next level: A full 8086 DOS emulator, in pure CSS

https://css-dos.ahmedamer.co.uk/

"An 8086 CPU, chipset, 640 KB RAM, floppy, keyboard and VGA screen in one .css file.

Itโ€™s a morbidly obese 300+ MB of spec-compliant CSS, abused beyond recognition; some of the most delightfully painful and wasteful code ever cursed to exist.

It boots Microsoft Windows 1.0 and its namesake MS-DOS, and runs real โ€™80s software.

Yes, it runs DOOM*"

why are people still okay with using 'milliamp hours' for portable device batteries???

it says fuck all about the actual battery capacity; are we talking 3 volts? 12 volts? 0.1 volts?

you don't talk about chargers in Amps either, because that also doesn't say anything "4 amps" at 5V is 20W and at 20V is 80W.

so it absolutely drives me bonkers when people say "you can charge with 90W and it has a 7100mAh battery!"

because that battery could be 21Wh (3V) or 90Wh (12V)

you may feel bad about ignoring that one thing in your life right now that really needs doing

but just remember that there may be someone out there that's sitting on a chair with one wheel that looks like this and is posting about it on fedi instead of fixing it :dragon_uwu:

https://tweakers.net/reviews/15016/prijsdata-toont-dat-fysieke-playstation-games-tot-50-euro-goedkoper-kunnen-zijn.html

dutch site compared the prices of physical retail vs online PlayStation store games and found that physical was almost always cheaper, by quite a significant margin too.

just going to say it: I think it's time to let PlayStation die. It's not what it used to be, it's basically just a crippled underpowered game pc these days. Spend your money elsewhere.

Even Linux + Steam will get you better game compatibility and more longevity, for less money.
