gollark: What might be interesting is completely departing from the whole "sequentially executing C-like code as fast as possible" thing. Though I guess that's... basically GPUs now?
gollark: I mean, that's... two architectures, and IIRC they're bad in different ways.
gollark: I expected to basically just use it for portably accessing stuff at home, but it turns out that most of my workloads run fine on this and my desktop's GPU was (still is, but I replaced it with a much worse one so I could use it workingly as a server) a bit broken so I use it for most stuff now.
gollark: The main issue is that I did not buy enough RAM for it, and the screen is bad.
gollark: That's an infinity percent return on investment.
