@aeva I have a CPU on the dashboard of my car like just as a fidget toy and it's like a 2ghz dual core. I considered selling it on ebay when I took the computer it was in apart but it literally would be more in postage to do so than the thing is worth, if someone even wants it
@halcy hehe I used to have a pair of ram sticks hanging from the rear mirror like a pair of fuzzy dice

@aeva Pretty sure in this era they applied the Pentium or Celeron branding to the low-cost parts, and the Core 2 Duo branding to the high-cost parts
@swiftcoder I just found a chart on wikipedia that confirms this: E7xxx and E8xxx would have been Core 2 Duo, higher would have been Xeon, and lower was pentium and celeron. so this would not have been sold as a core 2 duo
-
ah, it's an Intel Pentium E5800 "wolfdale" processor, so either I am mistaken about it being a Core 2 Duo or it is one and the branding is just confusing, but either way wikipedia dates this somewhere between 2008 and 2012. I would have purchased this either late 2011 or 2012 because I remember buying it to celebrate getting a job at Creative Commons

ok https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfdale_(microprocessor) has a handy little chart that explains intel's branding for this processor generation. the E5800 was sold as a "pentium" and not a "core 2 duo", so this is actually a *lower end* processor than I thought 😎
-
@aeva says here it's a Pentium https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfdale_(microprocessor)#Wolfdale-3M
@ruojake I just found that as well XD

I need to find a more dog shit computer to figure out where exactly the perf wall is. Maybe this means there's a riscv port in mollytime's future.

@aeva too great for a Celeron, too flawed to join the Cores 2 Duo, forever cursed

@aeva Currently the "dogshit wall" is #i486SX because #Linux dropped support for #i386 with Versions
3.4.99&3.6.9respectably, tho most people would say anything below #amd64 w/ #SSE2 (or #i686) is out of #mainstream support already, with #RHEL6 being EoL'd & #Debian being the last major distros offering #32bit support. -

```
emerge -avt gentoo-sources
eselect kernel list
eselect kernel set <n>
genkernel all
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
```it's something like this, I think

@ki ah that fixed it, thanks!

i'm trying and failing to find a screenshot of the part of chrono trigger where Lucca says to Marle "Machines aren't capable of evil... humans make them that way", but it turns out there's a lot of fan art of that scene, which is nice.
anyways, computers aren't slow... it's programmers that make them that way

@aeva 8086? :3
@pupxel so, no, but I have been pondering on and off whether or not it might be worth it to try to port mollytime to dreamcast

@aeva Sometimes the lack of programmers make them slow.
As in: I don't have the time to optimise because I already have to do all the work in the first place

@pupxel probably not XD

@shinmera look as long as your not dumping everything inside react/electron you're probably on the good side of the curve

This works better than I could have ever hoped. It can now import quite complicated images, optimally split colors across two sprites, detect borders and fine details and try to put them in the high res overlay sprite. I was expecting to need to do a lot more cleanup on imported assets, but it sometimes works optimally (or at least as good as I could do by hand) right off with no tweaks.

@GustavinoBevilacqua l'era moderna inizia nel 1600 o giù di lì, quindi una cosa dei 1930 è pure recente per essere considerata moderna :D
