    The advances in cancer research and treatment in the last 40 years is crazy too.

    In grade six (80s) I lost one of my cohorts to leukemia. It was a long road for her to her passing, with the stereotypical no hair and sick every day looking worse and worse.

    My neighbor’s grade 6 kid has a friend with leukemia and now they’re “just” sick “every once in a while” because they had chemo the previous day and they’re supposed to avoid sports, but is expected to be fine before they go to high school. Wild.










  • Wow you’re unnecessarily aggressive and oppositional. Who hurt you today?

    FPGAs can absolutely be used to provide cycle accurate hardware replacements. The fact that they guarantee realtime execution of instructions also makes it easier to achieve cycle-accurate execution than can be achieved with emulation.

    I’m not claiming FPGAs are a magic bullet, but when it comes to offering a retro gaming experience they offer a number of advantages for accuracy that is incredibly difficult to achieve with emulation, and with input latency far closer to the original experience than an emulator can offer.

    Edit: Oh, and since you crapped on my parable, educate yourself with a Google search for “ntvdm”
