That's just the ALU. The 8 bit df puter is actually an 8-bit computer, not just the arithmetic logic unit.

You just wait until someone makes it possible for us to play Dwarf Fortress in Dwarf Fortress.

With 200 dwarves and no lag at all.

Holy schist, this thread is mica me sick.
DF Players never truly leave.  They just abandon the fortress for a few years and then reclaim.

It's like the Cold War...obviously we need to build bigger, better, and most importantly missiles dwarfputers.

Do you always look at it in ASCII?

You get used to it, I don't even see the ASCII.  All I see is blacksmith, miner, goblin.

IIs minecraft multi-threaded? Because it would be a somewhat roundabout way to make DF multi-threaded.

When I get bored I draw up schematics for things. I've got CMOS transistors and pseudo analog adders with carry that operate quite fast (I suspect--they operate on water moving vertically). I also got a game of life. I'm actually building that one because I think it's pretty interesting (doing an 8x8 display). Maybe I should do a tic tac toe game where you have two dwarves and if one wins the other gets magma'd.

Minecraft is lacking one thing:
Sadistic people who seek to make living hell for their people.
Besides, a flat interface is better.
