      Life races on, I have fewer and fewer hours in the day to game, and my Steam library is getting to 200 like I’m getting to 40. Hook me the fuck up Ali Express.

        I had the Humble Bundle monthly subscription for a year. I’m at over 500 games with no hope to ever play them all, let alone best them.

          Make sure your will hands the catalogue onto someone that will appreciate it. Mine’s going to my goddaughter. She’s only 14 but she fucking understands this shit and the value of it all. Hell of a legacy to just mistakingly let die off into the digital aether.

      the bigger question seems to be that apparently those super powerful quantum computers run x86_64 architecture. Not sure its support for quantum commands though, seems like a waste of money just for the “quantum” name

        Well in fairness, a quantum computer would probably be more like a GPU - you’d still need a CPU, and you’d use it to control the quantum piece for specific tasks

        Quantum code is extremely different, we don’t know how to write it well yet. Quantum processors are also only suitable for certain problems - they’re not faster, they can just take a problem with a definite answer and skip looking through the problem space to collapse into a solution

        It would be insane to rewrite an os for a far less efficient, hundreds of thousands of times more expensive quantum CPU than to just attach it to a normal computer

        So a quantum computer would very likely use x64 Linux, and if so could probably run games… Except who knows if it even would even have integrated graphics, it would probably only ever be used as a server so that many people can queue up tasks… at least until we have several nobel-award worthy breakthroughs
