Got Open Syobon Action ported and will send a port email in, patched it to support full installation, fixed a memleak, and added pledge(2) support for the real autists in the back.

So I managed to get a PC-98 machine that satisfies the narrow set of conditions for running a PC-9801-14 soundboard (slow CPU mode that approximates a V30, it can be faster, no sound ROM, and the ability to remap devices away from INT5/6/whatever resources the 9801-14 takes up.), and then since the GreaseWeazle couldn't write a N88-BASIC disk (seriously does any of this shit I find online even work?), I just used a FlashFloppy. While 2 of the images I tried wouldn't load because let's be honest N88-basic disk support is jank as shit for floppy emulators and writers, a .d88 file of Galaga did and I was able to find out something major: NP21w and seemingly no PC-98 emulators are able to actually emulate most N88-Basic games using the 9801-14 due to the fact that the sound ROMs are undumped.

Good thing I've got a copy of those too. How many PC-9801 games were missing music because nobody has this rare TMS3631 based sound card?

I wish Mars One wasn't a scam. I bet there would be more people signing up for that than ever, given the direction society is going.

Sheetrock is the scam of a lifetime.
"What should my walls be made with? Wood? Stone? Metal? Ah, this sheetrock is perfect!" - an idiot
Literally turns to sludge with contact with water, and breaks upon bumping into fucking anything with little force.
"Ah, this paper mache house is the perfect thing for protecting my family and all my belongings", words of an absolute mad man
