minus-squareashinadash [she/her]hexbear8·3 months ago also the compiler on i686 requiring SSE2 instructions is a massive thorn in my side as a old computer user My comrade, tell me what old stinky i386 CPU you use!! link
minus-squareRussianEngineer [she/her]hexbear10·edit-23 months agoa 80386, multiple 80486's, a pentium-133, a pentium2, and two non-sse2 pentium4s. and they all have useful purposes for various things. things you cant do with an emulator old stinky now look here buddy modern tech delenda est link
minus-squareashinadash [she/her]hexbear7·3 months agoI was nodding along like "Waow...." [Basedbasedbasedbased] until Pentium 4s link
minus-squareRussianEngineer [she/her]hexbear7·3 months agoyes, even the awful netbursts have their use. and no, that use is not "spaceheater" even if they do that as a secondary function link
minus-squareashinadash [she/her]hexbear5·3 months agoAnything they can do that an Athlon XP would not? Purely curious (also I have always wanted an Athlon XP or 64 system rip) link
minus-squareRussianEngineer [she/her]hexbear4·3 months agoathlon XPs dont support DMA over their ISA bus. the p4 can with specific chipsets link
minus-squareashinadash [she/her]hexbear5·3 months ago I have a S478 board with an ISA slot... cool stuff? link
minus-squareRussianEngineer [she/her]hexbear5·edit-23 months agoonly if it has one of the chipsets which will allow full DMA over the isa slot, aka the intel 8xx series the intel 865/875 is the best one as it supports a faster FSB over the older 845 and 815 chipsets they're kinda rare tho and if it does have one, the 845 with the slower FSB is way more common then the others link
