(1) A DNS file drop: Split small files into TXT records and rebuild them client-side. Useless for big files, perfect for config blobs, tiny payloads, and cursed demos. Also someone can write an S3-compatible client.
(2) Redis DNS:
- GET foo.cache.example.com -> TXT record returns value chunks
- TTL is the eviction policy
- Cache invalidation becomes even more of a hate crime.
To clarify, a good title would be "Loading Doom entirely from DNS records"
Neither one plays Doom over DNS nor is the first paragraph in the README correct, because DNS is only abused for storage, not for computing/processing/executing instructions:
> At some point, a reasonable person asked "DNS resolves names to IP addresses, what else can it do?" The answer, apparently, is run DOOM.
very cool, i did something similar but turning the doom frame running on a server into ascii (with colour) and then a small shim to give inputs via subdomains
I never stop being impressed by these "<something-crazy> running Doom" posts. AFAIC, whenever we get to Mars, we won't truly have arrived until someone is playing Doom on Mars, and without wasting valuable resources by doing so. Running Doom, the canonical measurement of truly mastering a thing's capabilities.
Now let's do

Of course, I imagine it would be incredibly slow.
all you need is to rapidly push off one foot and land on the other, and you have running.

without the colour i did it in a worse way for bad apple

At this point I am wondering if people will somehow port DOOM over to the MONIAC.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENIAC
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phillips_Machine (MONIAC)
I'd say both are looking increasingly doable.
Why does everything get turned into an LLM discussion?
