In my timeline I haven't seen a #gptk 2 appreciation post during or since #wwdc24, so here’s mine:

AVX2 hardware instructions were supposedly “impossible” to emulate, so games like Red Dead Redemption 2 were a non-starter.

Guess what I am downloading right now?

Not sure if it will work (something else might cause trouble) but big shoutout to the team that did the impossible, again.

(If you’re interested, take the easy route: just download Whisky from GitHub, it does support GPTK 2 already).
