    Box64 - Linux Userspace x86_64 Emulator with a twist, targeted at ARM64 Linux devices

  • Do that binary translation deterministic against native x86-64, so you can play mp for example? I've tried to run dedicated server on Oracle ARM through box64 and it runs just fine, but you can't connect to it as a client and when I run benchmark it shows different checksum compared to bare metal x86-64 so it is not determenistic.

  • factorio-docker

    Factorio headless server in a Docker container

  • Update... I used the container found here and modified the docker-compose file to set QEMU_EXECVE=1 in the environment variables. Assuming you have the qemu-user-static package installed, this will utilize QEMU user space emulation for the container. Works fine so far, no checksum issues. No idea how fast it is though compared to box64. I'm also on the oracle cloud ARM box you have.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
