The author managed to run LUnix on an NES without tricks, like embedding a Raspberry Pi into the cartridge.

    I apologize for being pedantic, but he’s not running Linux on the NES, since LUnix is not Linux. This is still a cool project, but the title is a bit misleading.

        Yeah, but then why still put “Linux running on an NES?” as the title? It’s just click bait

          Would you give the video more than a glance if the title was “Operating System Similar To Linux Running on an NES?” I know I’d just scroll past it compared to the original title.

            He probably could have just said Unix instead of Linux. I get why he didn’t, and it’s not that big of a deal, just slightly annoying

          because linux is now interchangeable with “unix like”
          really it’s wrong to call linux linux, linux is just the kernel… gnu/linux is okay…

        That’s fair. This was more of a complaint about the video than the post. I do still think it’s a cool project, just annoyed by the click bait

      I just saw that SponsorBlock got the same video is working on YouTube, but not piped instances - at least in PipePipe (beautifully named NewPipe+SponsorBlock fork)

      Is SponsorBlock even available for such videos?
      Is there a way to like link them up to already marked videos or would we have to do the same work again?

      I haven’t really spent time with all of that, but as piped is supported by NewPipe/PipePipe, it would be quite convenient to use - but if I lose my SponsorBlock capabilities, I will need to reassess that choice (using piped over YouTube - NewPipe/PipePipe is awesome!)
