Bit shocked RockBox enabled music players aren't on the list.

My favorite port of Doom was the wacky PSDoom where it spawned enemies that were your processes and you could renice or kill the processes by hurting or killing them.

The pregnancy test is wild

It's not really though. They just used the screen from the pregnancy test and replaced all of the other hardware.

Wikipedia says it also ran/ runs on Atari Jaguar, Risc PC and whatever a "Tapwave Zodiac" is.

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

Tapwave Zodiac was a gaming focused PDA. Kind of the Steam Deck of its time, except almost no one bought it. I watched most of the old Doctor Who on one.

Fun fact, Stargate Atlantis used them as sci-fi scanner props.

how do I run doom on bacteria

[–] kerrigan778@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 5 hours ago

Some grad students made an e coli based display and ran doom on it https://www.popsci.com/science/doom-e-coli-cells/

Came here for this. Doom on a pregnancy test is by far the most impressive!

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 12 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Well mostly the others used whatever chip is on the device, that one only used the display sadly

[–] ApertureUA@lemmy.today 5 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

It actually used nothing except the case. Source: PCmag

I don't think Philips makes televisions or other consumer electronics any more, so I assume it's been ported on smart light bulbs or medical equipment.

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Wait, I knew about the potato, buy I didn't know you can play doom on doom itself! How does that work?

[–] ApertureUA@lemmy.today 7 points 5 hours ago

Some version(s?) of Doom have an in-game arcade cabinet with Doom IIRC

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 50 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Doom in Doom, lol. And there's also Minecraft in Minecraft. And Doom runs in Minecraft. Is there a Doom in Doom that runs in Minecraft in Minecraft?

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 13 points 9 hours ago

Be the change that you want to see in the world... :-P

My coffee maker isn’t listed, this is bullshit.

[–] Airfried@piefed.social 1 points 2 hours ago

What do you mean? Linux is right there.

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 28 points 14 hours ago

I first played it on my fridge

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 13 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Adobe Acrobat is also missing.

I think you might guess my favorite platform.

[–] HerrHelmus@lemmy.world 22 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Wait, it runs on Nextcloud? I need to look into that...

Of course it does.

[–] blinfabian@feddit.nl 7 points 11 hours ago

the reason i made the meme was bc i was scrolling through nextcloud apps to add and i found that fucking doom exists

[–] 6244901@lemmy.zip 2 points 8 hours ago

Why the fuck is there a camera icon :3

[–] JadedBlueEyes@programming.dev 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not seeing Adobe acrobat or a pregnancy test in there, who knows how many other ports it's missing!

Doom on a toaster would have a terrible frame rate.

[–] eodur@piefed.social 3 points 9 hours ago

I didn't realize there was a Doom package for NextCloud. I'm not even sure why I was surprised.

They forgot Rockbox. I still have an old Sansa Clip with Rockbox on it that plays Doom with no problems.

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 hours ago

I played Doom on my 30GB Ipod with Rockbox on it. It was stupid hard to control with the wheel, but it did in fact run.

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 hours ago

Yeah, I have also played it on there. Just to give others an idea, we're talking an MP3 player from 2007, that looks like this:

Here's an article showing the successor model running Doom: https://hackaday.com/2016/12/30/sansa-mp3-player-runs-doom-unplayably/

I don't see 3DO or Jaguar there.
