Exciting hardware! Meh application.

Heterogeneous compute, with a shitload of unified memory, and it's high-end non-x86? Fuck yes.

Pretending that spicy autocorrect is the future of all things? Nah. Good job pushing it to local machines, but good luck competing with $200 of DDR5 and patience.

... damn, okay, or $400 of DDR5. Glad I upgraded back when I did.
