Oh my god.

I could have so many tabs.
- This is graphics memory, not regular RAM.
  
  I was wondering why we skipped ddr6. Thanks for clarifying. 😊

- Maybe even have 3 or 4 google chrome tabs
  
  4 might be pushing it, it's still just GDDR7
- Browser and website developers see it other way: we can care about optimizations even less now.
  
  Maybe one day people will learn that tabs were never designed to perpetually stay open, 50 at a time, and be used as some makeshift bookmarks system.
  
  Oh yes. There was a proposed patch for Google Chrome a while ago that attempted to block some kind of hypothetical memory scanning attack with the only downside that it increased memory usage by 25% by padding out the process with a massive amount of fake instructions. I still get mad thinking about it. The memory scanning is entirely hypothetical, but the memory usage is very real.
well hope this makes gddr (and thus gpus) more affordable so i can run ai tools locally
