It seems #IBMi ACS users keep strugling with Win11 hardenings:

"I miss the insanity of 80s processor design.
Intel’s iAPX 432 was a 'micromainframe'.
It had no general purpose registers, supported object orientation *directly*, and performed garbage collection on-chip." - Also by @lauriewired

The i960 post by @kenshirriff is also worth checking out if you are interested in revolutionary architectures that just didn't really make it (while some concepts are still working in #IBMi and #CHERI I guess?):
