You were right to assume that in this case. DNS is not running doom here, it's just storing it.
replyThat's fair. I guess "can it store DOOM?" is still an interesting question though.
replyIs it? DNS has an explicit mechanism for storing data.
replyOk well it was new to me ok!
replyWhich is more ambitious, targeting the MONIAC platform or ENIAC?
replyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENIAC
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phillips_Machine (MONIAC)

“Run” is doing a lot of heavy lifting at this point.
replyI remember the pregnancy test Doom. Wasn't it "running" on the display only?
replyYes, I think it was, but that was also b/c, IIRC, the pregnancy tester had a CPU, too. A CPU can actually run things.
replyDNS … cannot, and that's why the person upthread is criticizing the use of the word "run" here. DNS ran nothing.
