- jnpnj 1y agoLong ago I thought that, at least for very generic / task-agnostic operations such as wiping, moving, duplicating chunks of memory, a chip-on-dimm could be of use (but maybe this is already the case and I don't know about it)

- jnpnj 1y agoKinda like SSDs encryption ?
- actionfromafar 1y agoI don’t know… I was thinking these cores would be programmable.
