If there's one universal rule we can all agree on, it's that some enterprising creator will force Doom to run on almost anything.
We've covered many successful attempts over the years, but even I was surprised to see PC gaming's arguably greatest shooter running on an Apple Lightning to HDMI adapter.
Yep, just the adapter. After Panic Blog spotted the Apple dongle appeared to be performing some upscaling trickery to stream 1080p content, a hacksaw attempt later revealed some surprisingly beefy hardware inside—at least for a relatively unassuming-looking device.
The adapter uses a Samsung 400 MHz Arm SoC with 256 MB of RAM and its own internal storage to perform video compression and upscaling duties, meaning that there's a tiny computer hiding inside the chassis.
Rather than simply scoffing at the audacity of such a relatively powerful SoC hiding inside a cable adapter, YouTuber Nyan Satan made an in-hindsight-obvious connection (via Hackaday).
