I would guess there is no way in hell they are going to stop making GPUs becuase GPU development leads directly to their ability to make better AI accelerators. I could see them backing off of CPU prodiction before cutting out GPUs.

What about BOB?

Read his authorized biography he was basically already there.

Every process name is basically a marketing a gimmick. You could sort of use the previous names as a ratio to get a general idea of uplift but that isn’t really accurate either. To further confuse things Intel’s naming scheme had bigger nm values but is a similar size to lower numbered names from TSMC.

It’s important to note that 1.6nm is just a marketing naming scheme and has nothing to do with the actual size of the transistors.

Look at the 3nm process and how the gate pitch is 48nm and the metal pitch is 24nm. The names of the processes stopped having to do with the size of the transistors over a decade ago. It is stupid.

It could also be a gross sex term for a dick. During sexy time someone could say to me “yeah give me that hot tube” and I would be immediately less interested in sex.

Yeah but you are talking about hot tubs and they are talking about hot tubes so maybe the rules are different like the tube is really hot but is a poor thermal conductor. Or they misspelled tub and they really like burning themselves… lots of options for interpretation here.

I really feel like the opening of that show is one of the main reasons that show flopped

Soon after it changes to it’s final form:

“don’t be evil, but greed y and posessive is okay”

Unless pirating privateering becomes popular again

Its not though, the signature and the digital art are stored separately.

They don’t have to be. That is just how it was done to sell thousands of stupid pictures of Apes, Cats, more apes and whatever else stupid crap they made thousands of iterations of.

All an NFT does is cause somebody’s GPU to spin up and generate carbon emissions associated with the same literal string of zeros and ones that accompanies every other copy of the print. It doesn’t represent any additional attention on the part of the creator. It’s just a substandard copy that comes with excess waste.

None of that is true. You don’t need a GPU to spin up to do anything. You are conflating mining crypto currency with NFTs. A NFT is just a cryptographic signature kept on some sort of blockchain that is associated with an image or file or unique pointer. You can use a preexisting blockchain or even make your own. Blockchains don’t have to be mineable and blockchains themselves are actually a good idea… mineable crypto currency is just a really shitty use case for them. It has nothing to do with mining and is just another form of cryptographic signature.

Edit: The fact that you think a physical signature has value while a unique digital signature (yes… the signature is unique) has none is personal preference and once again not the point I am making. I am saying it is a type of signature and some collectors might find value in it.

You are missing my point. It’s more like a pile of photos. If some artist took a picture and printed a shit ton of copies of it and sold those but signed one of them the one they signed might hold more value to collectors. That is what an NFT is like, the single copy of the photo that is signed. It’s not some amazing ground breaking thing that makes something so amazingly unique that nothing else compares to it… it’s just like a signature on a photograph.

I also never said anything about ownership of the image. A signature doesn’t imply that either.

NFTs are not a terrible idea it’s just another way of adding a signature to something. If a famous artist made a beautiful work of art and made an NFT of it and said “this is the only one I am selling” then I can understand how it might hold some value to collectors because it’s just like how their signature adds to the value of their artwork.

My dog just took a shit outside and if I put my signature on it the value would still be that of a pile of dog shit. Dumb pictures of apes generated for the sole purpose of making more pictures of apes to sell that hold no value to begin with don’t magically become more valuable after they have a signature on them.

I figured out how to do it fairly quickly but it would be a hell of a lot easier if people could just type in “11700K” in a box on a web page or something and it could just tell them. Or they could have added a little bit of code to their CPU ID utility that says “yupp your processor is effected by the flaw”. I am mostly annoyed at all this not for me but for all the people who would read those pages and the contents would seem like an insane foreign language to them all while articles are telling them it’s a major security flaw that would allow people to steal their encryption keys.

Every article is a copy paste of the same bullshit talking about the vulnerability and pointing to the stupid cryptic list of processors that requires you to jump through hoops to read it. You can’t just search for your processor in a database I mean fuck that would take them at least an a couple hours of their precious time to set up and they have only had a year. How do you fix it? Why with a microcode update of course!!..from where you ask? Well don’t worry just look at the cryptic list it will tell you if you need a microcode update!!

Fuck every article about this shit. Anyone wanna bust an Eli5 on how to fix this problem for people? (I was assuming it’s a BIOS update but the articles have only confused me further)

They suspended xvideos.com’s account and the rumor is they are considering calling the videos on their platform xvideos… I REALLY REALLY want this to happen.
