No things will remain sacred next to DOOM
Because people have inflated what I means to run doom.
Serving the game files on DNS, is not running doom!
Using bacteria to display frames from doom, is not running doom!
Playing the soundtrack on a really old computer is not running doom!
Can it play doom is supposed to be a laymans proxy for turing completeness and quite frankly I was intrigued how to trick DNS into performing arbitrary computation.
