<p>I ought to write a guide for sabotaging Python projects (fight the power) and then just sit back and wait to see how long people take to figure out that it's all best practice. Sort of like that popular CIA manual.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux" class="u-url mention">@<span>gamingonlinux</span></a></span> It's absolutely horrific lol. Not just the performance but it looks AWFUL at low settings. And even rough still higher up</p>

It's doing the same things wine does, running x86 code natively while translating sys/API calls.<br />What makes dosbox an emulator?<br />If these are also not emulators, does that mean every xbox or dos game belongs in r/linux?</p>

While the x86-code-execution part of wine is reasonably not-an-emulator, I strongly disagree when it comes time to start replacing dx function calls with gl/vk-based replacements; those new functions are definitely emulating the unavailable APIs.</p>

If I can run it without an emulator or dual-boot, then itโs not Windows exclusive</p>
