This Espresso Machine Can Run Doom
A Reddit user got 1993's Doom running on the circular screen of a Fellow Espresso Series 1 machine using custom firmware. The brew button starts the game, the steam button fires, and the scroll wheel turns Doomguy left or right. Normally that screen just picks your americano or cappuccino and runs an extraction timer. It joins a long line of unlikely Doom hosts, from potatoes to a pregnancy test.
Before caffeinating yourself in the morning, the Fellow Espresso Series 1 machine can actually run 1993's Doom on its small, circular screen.

Doom is so old you'd really have to go out of your way to find an MCU that can't run it.

Imagine hiding a secret computer in a Beowulf cluster of espresso machines.
