Continuing brain-dead memes like "Moore's law" just identifies you as a socialized zombie. Think for yourself.
When will it go back to the CPU?

At some point shouldn't we just have really versatile CPUs? All these 3D cards are just kludges that happen to be tuned for 3D processing. They can do other general purpose processing as well. Thus the CPU can do their processing, given enough versatility.
If you can get hexadecimal floating point working, it should be just n/64h, then move the floating point two to the left. Since usually they're retarded and work with hex integers, you should be able to just add some zeros to n to make sure you get enough digits in your answer.
Giving implies that you no longer have what you gave away. I can give away a banana, and no longer have it. Information is copied, not given. The only thing that could be said to be given here is bandwidth.

Because all patents are illogical.
Isn't DirectTV official evil(tm)? So now what, do they tow your car if they suspect you don't have a "license"?
Replace landlord with slave owner, other dude with slave releaser. All the same thing...some just don't want to change, but things will change.
A post considering the person, no the argument--and the poster's argument is clearly the losing one? Ah, so there is some order in the universe.
I suppose freeing slaves wouldn't "gain people's respect and promote your ideals" either, right? That was illegal then.
Information wants to be free!

This is a nerd site after all.
Now quit chasing me around.
The coming shift to hexadecimal will only make us closer to the machine's way of thinking, as it should be.
It's like people deny that it exists. Why must the first thought be making the disable "normal" instead of making people beyond "normal"?
It's not the most logical one, but humans latch on to catch phrases, so we might as well run with this one.
SS# is a key. Music is content. Got it?
It's only illogical policies that make it appear not so. They are getting information in its natural state.
Look it up.

A cynic...how freaking original!
Shouldn't it be 256?
Did you expect them to understand computers at all? They're dinosaurs--just laugh at them while they are still around.
1) Abolish copyrights.
2) Do not require restrictions.
You said "copied your idea", not "stole your idea". Well done!
A little anger is needed sometimes.
