DOSBox Staging v0.82.1 has been released 
The main focus of this maintenance release is to fix a couple of regressions introduced in 0.82.0 and older releases, mostly related to game compatibility. The other big improvement is the CPU usage of the 3dfx Voodoo emulation has been reduced by about 50%, so your computer won’t go into hoover-mode anymore when playing those Voodoo games 
check out the release notes for the details:

The AYANEO Pocket Micro (Classic), I've been talking about. Arrived this week, and I gotta admit... this is top-tier product design and build quality. Review on @overkillwtf soon!
By the way, I’ve fallen headfirst into the retro gaming rabbit hole thanks to the AYANEO Pocket Micro. Bought an Anbernic RG35XX H a day later and spent yesterday's whole evening with @retrogamecorps's shader guide. What have I done?
After a prolonged wait, there's finally an updated v3.2.3 to Amiga OS 3.2. Let's take a closer look at it...

Infinite Mac can now run early #MacOS X, with 10.1 and 10.3 being the best supported versions.

Either #3DPrinting the enclosure, or using an Altoids tin of all things. Another kinda adorable option for #HandheldGaming and #emulation

I was able to get an instance of System 7 running in Basilisk 2 on both my Macbook Air and Mac Mini to connect to each other using AppleTalk!
1) Basilisk 2 preferences must have udptunnel set to true
and udpport set to the same port on all Basilisk 2 instances.
2) The Control Panel Sharing Setup must have File Sharing configured and started.
3) Guest user should have Allow guests to connect checked.
Thanks @oevl, you inspired me with your post last night.

Created a brand-new 86Box system, custom made for MS-DOS 3.31 and Windows/386 2.11.
This is using a 386 CPU with 4 megs of RAM, Trident TVGA 8900D graphics and a 120MB WDAC2120 harddisk. Everything seems to be pretty compatible and works without issues, running in 386 enhanced mode. Including the latest and greatest MS Word 1.1a and Excel 2.1d.
So… I just learned that if you have an AMD GPU, you can emulate hardware Ray Tracing if you are on Linux: https://youtu.be/VEo7066YoVo?si=EM2bydI7VhvDSOBk #RT #amdgpu #ray #tracing #emulation and seems it’s quite performant at that! @thelinuxEXP could be good to let this be more wildly known! @killyourfm maybe something for you as well?

I ran into a few issues with Windows 2.x and later versions of MS-DOS, so I figured I should simply install an older version of MS-DOS. Version 3.31 seemed appropriate, because it supports harddisks larger than 32MB.
Easier said than done, because - as a surprise to me - this version of DOS apparently didn't even have a setup program. You have to do everything yourself: FDISK, FORMAT, SYS,... you even have to copy COMMAND.COM from A: to C: by hand. Simpler times!

What is exactly a "digital twin"? Paul Clarke (CTO at Ocado) in this interesting podcasts (https://www.buzzsprout.com/1154870/episodes/16540872-351-paul-clarke-ai-digital-twins-modeling-engineering-our-way-out) tries to explain the difference between:
1. #Simulation - any mathematical realization of some model using different scenarios,
2. #Emulation - a simulation that tries to copy actual physical world,
3. #Visualization ,
4. #DigitalShadow - digital copy of physical twin with data flow 1 way only,
5. #DigitalTwin - physical and dig twin and data flows connected in 2 directions,

I gave Windows 3.11 a dark mode. It's practically a modern OS now.
#Nintendo has sent a DMCA take-down claim on all #Ryujinx emulator forks on this list.
No surprise, and lends credence to the idea that Nintendo is pushing #Switch #emulation as far back as it can, due to the Switch2 sharing architecture with the original - making emulation of the upcoming generation's games if not possible straight away...far easier to do.

Still, Ryubing by Greemdev is still untouched (and seems it won't ever be taken down!)

Interestingly, the NEC V20, an enhanced clone of the Intel 8088, *does* have a real IP register. They spent the extra silicon, and their jumps are a bit faster as a result as they don't have to do any math on PC to produce a return address.
