[1:41:15][@thetamiel][Billy Mitchell has recently sued some people for slandering him]
[1:42:31][@sneakybob_wot][Did they say he used an emulator rather than a real arcade?]
[1:43:15][@mindmark42][Q: Can you explain more what a micro-op is?][:isa]
[1:43:32][Skylake-ish Core Micro-op (µop)][:asm :blackboard :hardware :isa]
[1:58:29][Micro-op Fusion and Limits][:asm :blackboard :hardware :isa]
[2:01:39][Macro-op Fusion][:asm :blackboard :hardware :isa]
[2:07:02][@somebody_took_my_name][Q: I don't think they fuse the instructions anymore. Take a look at LOOP, LOOPE and LOOPNE on uops.info.[ref
site=uops.info
url=https://uops.info/table.html] They take a lot of uops. (No expert here, but pure from poking Godbolt and the x86_64 instruction set / byte codes[ref
site="x86asm.net"
page="coder64 edition | X86 Opcode and Instruction Reference 1.12"
url=http://ref.x86asm.net/coder64.html])][:asm :hardware :isa]
[2:07:37][@somebody_took_my_name][Q: Never mind, I thought you meant that the compiler fused the instructions, not the uops in the pipe][:asm :hardware :isa]
[2:07:48][@naysayer88][Q: What if it is an HTML DIV in the scheduler?]
[2:07:53][WebAssembly][:asm :blackboard]
[2:08:23][@printf_armin][They do even crazier instruction squashing now][:asm :hardware :isa]
[2:10:14][We're all good here][:speech]
[2:11:04][@naysayer88][Probably not!]
[2:11:28][@naysayer88][I should have OBS'd it]
[2:11:47][@somebody_took_my_name][Does he have a save game? Or are there no save games?]
[2:12:01][@naysayer88][Look, if my screenshot[ref
