Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

The mantra "Doom runs on anything" means the game should be executed by the device in question.
Here, this is not the case, the gut bacteria only acts as a display.

They should have let it play "bad apple" instead.

That's the case for a lot of the "doom runs on it" ones, like that pregnancy test. But I like the idea that if it can compute, it can run Doom; if it can display, it can play Bad Apple.

I love how bad apple is the doom of animation. it's a fun rabbit hole to dive into whenever utube recommends me one

[–] Dabundis@lemmy.world 50 points 9 months ago (2 children)

We did it folks, we can now install doom on the human body

[–] TealTallMachine@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago (1 children)

No doubt Elon will have that installed first thing on his newest guinea pig.

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

He will install twitter and have the person tweet as the first internet integration before any testing of that integration, shortly thereafter the person will die.

Backward compatability man

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That would be really slow... but okay, if you insist:-).

We need to try it on a watermelon too then, to see if size effects the fps

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It might actually - more cells = more mitochondria = more power! So better do the watermelon first, then miniaturize the whole thing and take on a grape later.:-D

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

Ahh yes the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell

Yes and no https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/you-can-play-doom-using-gut-bacteria-but-the-framerate-is-atrocious

They didn't manage to actually run doom on the bacteria, they used them as a display to show it running though

[–] kurwa@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Bad apple on gut bacteria when

Peter Steinlechner? Is this the German journalist who was writing for Gamestar in the early days?
