@stman @theruran @50htz @vidak @forthy42 Yeah, basically attacks on schedulers or any non-static component that is software-defined makes it easy to go that way.

  • The only way one could "fix" this would be Harvard-Architecture and strictly segmented threads in hardware, which would toss all the flexibility of existing Von-Neumann-Systems out of the Window and basically result in #Mainframe-esque systems like the OS/360 'hard containers' on z/Architecture, which means 2x42U of phat iron to run 50+ year old COBOL code at 0% performance gain at bit-, cycle and clock-accuracy.

And even "#TradFinance" hates that because they refuse to train new programmers for that stuff and they are too deeply entrenched to migrate away!

I just saw this ASCII text account called @hypernode.bsky.social & it reminded me of my UCLA mainframe days...

Anyone remember a real-time multi-player game on the #mainframe called #HUNT? You'd telnet in & control an 'X' on a 16x16 grid, firing bombs, slime & other weapons.

Man, that was FUN.

I’m about to start building and shipping (EU only) my new z17 Raspberry Pi 5 mainframe setup — perfect for retro computing or mainframe enthusiasts.
 
Includes:
z17 case in Jet Black with a glow-in-the-dark “Z” on the lid
 
Your choice of Blue (z17) or Orange (LinuxONE) backplate + power button
 
+Raspberry Pi 5 (8GB RAM)
+Active Cooler
+256GB SSD (Raspberry Pi OS pre-installed)
+27W Power Supply (black)
+Waveshare HDMI adapter
+Pre-configured with Hercules TK5 (mainframe emulator) + local terminal

You just need to add a monitor, HDMI cable, USB keyboard + mouse.
 
Interested? - contact me 😉

"This could definitely make for a fun weekend project to mess around with."

That's what @thomholwerda of @osnews wrote this week when he shared details of our latest IBM LinuxONE and Linux on IBM Z open source software report, and went on to highlight the IBM #LinuxONE Community Cloud!
