I wonder if LLMs are useful in reconstructing a real compilable game that reverse engineers all functions. No, not in the sense that I want to shove "AI" into everything vibe codin…

Yeah, nommu Linux basically cannot run normal ELF since there is no virtual memory which is needed for relative addressing and relocations. You are mostly left with classical forma…
