Emulating a 6502 with cycle-perfect timing

Just reposting TempleOS's post (which, being hell-banned, many won't see). Plus, it's a little less ranty than usual :) Without further ado:

To me abstraction above the hardware is like condoms. Some people say "Use three condoms, its better". I don't want a literal C64 -- just the complete open simple access... but 64-bit and 3Ghz and multicored. I don't want it to run on a 386, just x86_64.

I was trying to parse that earlier, but it doesn't make sense. Is he saying he wants something as open as a C64, but running on modern hardware?

he wants access to the bare metal on the same level as the C64, but with modern hardware.
