Yor gpu does 1000x more.

How is that my problem?

yeah well mine does trillions
what now, bitch

Ngl, I find the complexity intimidating. Just imagine how many systems have to work properly in order for me to have a wank to tranny porn.
>>
>>106751280
think how much data goes into single 4k-8k frame
now imagine your cpu having to duplicate that work not just one time but 120-144-165-howmany times your refresh rate is...per second.

how does a man create this?
>>
Think of all the electrons that do those operations enslaved by demonic sigils only a few nanometers in size. Or don't. Because the human mind is not meant to know about the quantum realm much less tamper with it.

>man creates this

All this computational power to make the shitiest shitposts in all of history

>>106752054
Photolithography
There's a madman on youtube who's documenting his journey trying to make microprocessors at home
>>
>>106752054
uhh...something like chemical vapor disposition perhaps?
I don't actually know. But surely someone here does.

This guy did it by using a microscope backwards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nxz_ENnmgtI
>>
>>106752465
damn, that is cool
>>
>>106751204
and three quarters of it wasted on interpreters, garbage collection, inefficient code...

>freemason symbol

>>106751213
the gpu is moving 1,000,000,000 grains of sand
the cpu is moving 1,000,000 skyscrapers
>>
>>106751204
how many event listeners are active right now, listening for an event that will never happen
>>
>>106752955
actually almost all of it is wasted on talking to off-socket shit, handling hardware interrupts, etc.
>>
>>106753031
some live in complete silence
and then there are some that are chewing through untold billions of events every second. more events than there are people on the planet. every. second.
>>
>>106752955
interpreters are the rational response to massively overcomplicated system architecture
>>
>>106752054
>a man
only a few hundred thousand people are involved with the creation, integration and distribution of this. you could kill a fraction of them and completely stop technological progress for years.
>>
>>106753018
This is such a great way of describing the difference between CPUs and GPUs that I wish I used it in my class
>>
>>106751213
yeah but each of those instructions are 0.001 as big as a cpu instruction
>>
>>106753184
no, that's a horrible description which conveys nothing tangible
