In a groundbreaking exposé on modern computing, we delve into the intricate art of... enabling JavaScript! 😲 Apparently, the ultimate mystery of split locks on #x86-64 is just one cookie click away from being solved. 🍪🔓 Move over, Sherlock Holmes; there's a new detective in town, and it's your browser settings. 🕵️♂️💻

Ah, yes, because what the world truly needs is an ant farm with a programming language that requires a PhD in obscure assembly syntax. 🤖📜 Let's all gather 'round and debug our virtual insect colonies, because apparently, controlling 200 digital ants is the pinnacle of modern computing. 🐜💻

So I had a silly thought.. Could you use a modern day CPU with no extra ram at all today? What about without a hard drive for an OS?
So at the start the OS was on a ROM chip, did that double at the equiv of a bios?
Modern CPUs have more cache than PC's needed of yesteryear. UEFI BIOS are massive in size, and with the existence of Coreboot and its ability to have nearly anything for a payload, linux, seabios, etc you could put a very small OS on there (by today's standards).
I'm sure someone's tried or done something along these lines right?
EDIT: I was thinking just x86_64 CPUs but my examples draw from things like C64/Atari/Amiga/ etc computers too. So any modern cpu today that could run a small OS that lets people just work on stuff. Like with no extra or minimal extra chips for some bare minimum IO

STP Spanning Tree Protocol
Programming by Radia PerlmanCurrently doing refreshing research on STP an incredible protocol which prevents bridge loops, which can result in network saturation and collapse. Backup links and fault tolerance are also built in STP
Radia Perlman is a brilliant programmer!

A visit to the one-man computer factory
Computers used to be made out of wood, endlessly customizable, and totally personal. Now they’re all metal rectangles. Can one guy in his LA house help bring the old way back?
