In S. Africa they didn't even try to exterminate black people.
The comparison just don't stand anymore

Not a creature was stirring, not even a … ’
Hold that thought!
Here’s a Roman bronze figurine of a little mouse nibbling on bread! Squeak squeak! 🐭❤️

I searched "snatcher sega cd" and google suggested "snatcher sega cd rom"
why yes, google, it was on CD-ROM!
@nazokiyoubinbou It was similar to "Channel I/O" in mainframes, but really it was a bona-fide processor with its own assembly. The idea was that a bunch of CPU cycles were wasted on copying memory between the devices; you could offload this to 8089, leaving all the true computing to 8086. Multi-processor system by design! 8089 could be configured to run on top of a separate bus, with some extra logic to allow the communication between the system bus and the external bus, too.
Intel's own manual shows that it can be used to move data from a shadow frame buffer to a video RAM at 1.25 megabytes/sec (that'd be 20 FPS for this computer) all while leaving the main CPU available for other calculations.
Now that I think about it, I probably can/should leverage 8089 to do conversion between a linear framebuffer Windows expect and 16x16 blocky mess of a graphics the computer has.
@nazokiyoubinbou Unfortunately, as implemented in the Apricot, you can’t run them simultaneously. The 8089 has two buses it can work with, but the secondary bus only connects to I/O space. So the program the 8089 runs has to be in main RAM on the same bus as the CPU and they can’t both access it at the same time.
I suppose theoretically you could put some RAM in I/O space to fix that, but it wouldn’t be very portable. (Then again, Nina and Atsuko are the only other people I know who have one, so maybe it’s viable. 😄)
Now resting in a tiny box in one of the drawers, this magic fish predates Queen Victoria. Over 200 years old, it has been carefully kept and repaired - which may have skewed the accuracy of its fortune telling...

I've spent ridiculous amount of time making a sexy Windows 2.0 screenshot instead of writing a post about the system.
But you don't mind, right?
Windows 2.0 offers quite a unique challenge: only 8 colour palette to work with. Yes, even in VGA. I wonder if this was to support displays without an intensity input?
On top of that, built-in Paint is only monochrome, and PC PBrush has broken palette loading. So, to open this image in Windows 2.0, I had to
* Export my PNG to 24-bit BMP in "compatibility mode",
* Load Windows 3.0 Paintbrush, and then ZSoft PC Paintbrush (only in this order, Paint refuses to start after PC Paintrbrush),
* Select and copy image to clipboard in MS Paintbrush,
* Paste and save in PC Paintbrush,
* Reboot to Windows 2.0
GIMP->PCX doesn't work (format too new), Windows 3.1 Paint->PCX doesn't work (format too new), Windows 3.0->PCX doesn't work (broken palette, wrong colours).
Phew. But, oh my, it's sexy.

Scientists have discovered a remarkable way to destroy cancer cells. A study published last year found stimulating aminocyanine molecules with near-infrared light caused them to vibrate in sync, enough to break apart the membranes of cancer cells.

UN denounces sustained intensity of violence in Gaza https://www.plenglish.com/news/2024/12/23/un-denounces-sustained-intensity-of-violence-in-gaza/
mais Gaza était déjà qualifié de "camp de concentration à ciel ouvert" , depuis bien avant le présent holocauste
"Le terme Holocauste, plus couramment utilisé dans les pays anglo-saxons pour désigner ce génocide, signifie en grec « le sacrifice par le feu »."
C'est bien de ça dont il s'agit.
