Ah. You and I are about forty years out of sync. I definitely need to catch up but, if you’re interested in how we dealt with memory bandwidth limitations the original planar modes on the Amiga (and similarly vintaged systems) some spelunking might be fun.
I am only casually interested in the N64, but it comes from an era where these sorts of things really mattered because you were designing your own bus/architecture.
Also, randomly, do you know @mothcompute ? If not, lemme introduce y’all. You’re both way smarter than I am at these sorts of low-level details and I would enjoy watching y’all nerd out.
(Obligatory “See MIPS Run” is the best CPU architecture book ever comment.)
(You both need to nerd out *here*. I’ve already done the Twitter migration. I’m not going to BlueSky too. I’m too old and tired.)
Never heard of KYO but kfor.com behaves similarly. At my hs anytime something "big" would happen like the time my friend passed out doing pull ups and had a seizure... they'd somehow immediately swarm campus alongside www.news9.com. so spot on the nose there. 2/2 https://www.news9.com/

unlike here with my 100,000 character limit i am restricted and forced to split my paragraphs into like 5 individual replies
the funny thing is I am anti character limit but you’re one of the few people who sometimes makes me consider that it could be a good idea
