     @Pawlicker@makai.chaotic.ninja I spoke to one of the GRUB devs at Fosdem once, they are absolutely unhinged. He had like 20 different machines with him to show off and they all ran GRUB. Some even had architectures I hadn't even heard of.

     @SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo this was a old 90s port for PC-98 Linux, it's so weird seeing FOSS on that platform given how obscure it is outside Japan.

     @Pawlicker@makai.chaotic.ninja I know about PC-98 GNU/Linux. There was even a Debian PC-98.
     
     Also speaking of really obscure shit. Do you know that a ReactOS port for PC-98 exists?

     @Pawlicker @SuperDicq GNU/JIHAD AGAINST "FOSS"!!!!!!
