Use case?

>>108836187
The super multithreading is a cool idea, but due to no documentation don't expect a gui or apps working as POWER isn't x64 or even arm.

>>108838264
Oh. Are GTK, Qt aren't ported to it? Uboobtoo lists support for it?
>>
It's shit.

>>108838403
Yeah there's a port for the OS, but I think its considered headless as ppc64 isn't exactly mainstream and substandard translation/emulation to x64 or arm makes bugs/glitches/broken scenarios inevitable. But take the plunge and report your findings, I'm just a stranger on the internet.

There's some gook running translation/emulation tests on a POWER9 running on what looks to be gnome. See for yourself:

despite being almost ten years old, power9 systems are still, afaik, the fastest zero blob computers you can run

but that and computer hipsterism are the only reasons to use one
