I’m lucky to have a high paying job and a wonderful community around me where most of my needs are met, so my cost of living is low even with two children.
Ive been working on early retirement wince the day I started my career and Im a little over halfway there :) If I could double even one of my accounts I’d be set.
They solve a set of problems different from those handled by cpu’s
The existence of GPUs wouldnt ‘curb the growth’ of the other processors
The government would be best positioned to benefit from that rapid growth, since it is a state level actor that can regulate the use and acquisition of technologies
GPUs have also developed very quickly since their advent.
I work on networking for distributed rendering for a major cloud provider- very familiar with gpu architecture and use-cases :)
Saying they do more math is a bit tricky. The CPU does crazy types of very complicated math and accomplishes tasks we still have a hard time offloading to GPUs.
I agree with the rest of your statement as a good explanation for why GPUs can do faster and more efficient batch processing of the workloads that can be fit to the SIMD set up we use for most modern GPUs (ignoring general purpose gpu and fancier compute options)
Solid answer here. Worth pointing out that MX Linux has other DEs than xfce. I originally left Ubuntu for pop!_os but wanted to use KDE. After realizing that swiching to Kde removed most of what makes pop special, I started looking around again and landed on the ahs/kde version of MX. Its been great! Still a debain distro so its very familiar, but I dpnt have to worry about Canonical making poor decisions upstream.
The amount of money in your bank account magically doubles RIGHT NOW, does it make a big difference? Does it change your life at all?
Hopefully no one is over drafted right now…
