pls no

does it still require a multi billion factory to produce shit? Then I don't see how this is going to help other than improve a niche.

Oh wow a nothing burger

Daniel Turner
Not really, we have all in one machines that do cost several hundred million but can produce chips by themselves.

Ehh...

We must nuke everything and return to monke

can't wait to have rgb tshirts

Condom processor cumming up. Powered by friction alone.
Can still insert info into her with a rubber on and not knock her up too.

It's too late bro, it's far too late.
Jordan Howard
how is this anything special
isn't it just a fab process that uses plastic instead of silicon
Aaron Hall
lovely. bothnet clothes.

Nice.
David Fisher
that's not how it works retard
Elijah Rivera
Ironically it's probably millions of times slower than a desktop PC
Nolan Garcia
Is a 4004 even Turing complete? What even could this possibly be used for? Probably not even spying since I doubt it has the performance to encode an MP3.
Aiden Jackson
There were headlines about plasticarm processors more than a year ago.
Benjamin Cox
not everything needs to be a computer
The most popular chip is the 555 timer and all it does is delay an action
Asher Evans
Yeah, wouldn't it be extremely inefficient at addressing memory?
And wouldn't it be limited to just 16 instructions?
Ayden Sullivan
>not everything needs to be a computer
Well, yes, exactly.
I don't see any use case for a 4-bit CPU in current year. Even my calculator has a full Zilog Z80.
Brayden Nelson
that's for graphing calculators though. Most people just use regular calculators.
Chase Fisher
So you can put it in a 10 cent non-graphing calculator. We already had chips for that, though.
Samuel Watson
If it can do a conditional jump you can do basically everything computers are good for.
Christopher Ortiz
It'll take a while.

16-bit thumb instruction, 800 nm process, a 60 mm^2 die
>predicts an equivalent silicon design of 18334 NAND2 gates
>29 kHz is listed at 21 mW
Compare it to an 8086 and you should be able to see the possibilities.
