500MHz pentium 3 (katmai) putting up a valiant effort. it does surprisingly well, honestly, with a flash it was never meant to play

@[email protected] this is making me want to go get my dual p3 box and get it set up again

@linear everybody but me has a dual slot-1 or dual socket 370 machine it seems
Show threadmirabilos3d ago
@wyatt @linear no, just Socket 7 (and Socket 3)

@mirabilos @linear i don't have any dual CPU systems (that aren't weirdos like the commodore 128) at all i think
Show threadmirabilos3d ago

@wyatt @linear used to have a dual PⅡMMX but never got any use out of it and sold it.

Other than those Core2Duo laptops, all I have are SPARCstations, but I don’t run them with more than one CPU because I use MirBSD on them.

Oh and “smart”phones, but they don’t count.

@mirabilos @linear i had a dual netburst xeon ibm server at one point but not anymore

@mirabilos @wyatt @linear Does a sun sparc64 with a SunPCi count as dual-CPU? ^^

Otherwise IIRC my PowerMac G4 is dual-cpu but well it's horrible in terms of heat and noise, like a sort of vacuum cleaner crossed with a radiator.

@wyatt I'm curious, didn't Flash players require at least SSE2 to run?
Show threadwyatt3d ago
@Soblow macromedia launched flash in 1996, SSE2 processors launched in 2000
so no
it's running 11.1.205 or something
Show threadSoblow Xaselgio 3d ago
@wyatt ohhhhh so it's recent versions of Flash player that introduced the SSE2 requirement... Thanks for the info!

@wyatt wonder if my 1ghz athlon or 866mhz pentium 4 would do better but also it'd be a pita to find out

for the worst machine the ne3 can run 2000 but that'd be quite watching the paint dry

@wyatt the blast from the past wasn't a homestuck flash animation (that's how I flashbang/vibecheck my friends) nor a Pentium 3 (been there) but the actual casing of some PCB in a literal lego box.
