A new nanosecond clock for x86 Linux/Windows
tscns is a low overhead nanosecond clock based on x86 TSC instruction. It provides a resolution with 1 nanosecond precision for both LInux and Windows, and the latency of getting timestamp is less than 10 ns. It's also closely synchronized with the system clock, which makes it a good alternative of standard system clocks.

Could try this https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX + wine/proton. But as always keep in mind that playing on non-supported platforms can lead to bans in future (never happened but who knows).

Steam is also funding an x86 tn ARM game emulator, which opens up the potential for it working on Android.

Android tablets and Chromebooks are on another crash course – will it be different this time?
Valve is funding developers working on an x86-to-ARM layer, FEX. I'm assuming that the eventual end goal would be to run Steam on Android, one of the FEX developers was commenting on trying to get FEX to work on an S8 Tab Ultra.

How the f*** does Proton works so amazingly well?
Valve is also funding another translation layer, from x86 to ARM (see FEX).

Apple GPU drivers now in Asahi Linux
Additionally, game emulation won't be optimal until someone fixes this issue from FEX-Emu, which will allow that emulator to run on Apple Silicon. QEMU-user is currently your best option though it is dead slow. Box64 is currently pretty capable, however, it will not be able to run any 32-bit libraries (which even modern games ship a few of).
