     @allison @kirby I'm sure Simon Tatham's portable puzzle collection has already been ported.

     @kirby @allison (It's probably as simple as compiling it.)

     @Zerglingman @kirby I know there was someone working on a port, but I don't think it ever got completed. Honestly there are a lot of surprising omissions, like even nethack I'm pretty sure doesn't have a port yet.

     @allison @Zerglingman @kirby I'm pissed my as400 doesn't have a compiler license for it (I've got the infowindow ii twinax term even)

     @Pawlicker @Zerglingman @kirby >compiler license
     And then they wonder why everyone switched to Linux instead

     @allison @Zerglingman @kirby you can't even emulate it you need to use a public access server. IBM only in the past few years made it easy to let you get serial numbers over the phone your system already has.

     @Pawlicker @Zerglingman @kirby Yeah I've toyed around with public access a bit before and it was very interesting, probably the most exotic system I've used all told.

     @Zerglingman @allison @kirby nobody is autistic enough to reverse engineer the PowerPC as tagged memory extensions yet (though leaked docs exist)

     @Pawlicker @Zerglingman @kirby I thought Hugo Landau did something with that? They definitely exist on Cell, so if someone is autistic enough and needs cheap hardware they can probably bum off the millions of PS3s around.

     @allison @Zerglingman @kirby you can use any power6+ machine as one too. That's when IBM quit selling separate machines/skus.
     
     Everyone selling those servers on eBay shows the sn because potential buyers ask to check the licenses.

     @Pawlicker@bae.st @Zerglingman@freespeechextremist.com @allison@hidamari.apartments @kirby@lab.nyanide.com apparently PPC tagged memory, is just holding an extra bit in ECC RAM, so you can manually trap if the bit is unset.
     https://www.devever.net/~hl/power9tags
     
     so to emulate it you just need a bitvector of length rambytes/16.
